MMMovie Review : Paranormal Activity


This Blair Witch, hand-held camera style, independent film was made about 2 years ago until come across by Steven Spielberg. He watched the film and apparently had to turn it off half way due to its creepiness. I recently got the chance to have a sit down and watch this hyped new-age horror and found it very realistic. The acting wasn't the greatest but if you have the mentality to look past that, it's quite chilling. The film is about a couple who live in a small duplex-style house. The woman in the movie has been haunted by a ghost her entire life, so her boyfriend decides to purchase a video camera (hence the movie footage) to record any paranormal activity;). So the movie kinda picks up from there. I would strongly suggest seeing it before it leaves the theatres, so hurry, get on your horse, and watch this movie~! ****

Chin Chin

Chin Chin, one of the newest members of the Def Jux family is a disco inspired, funk fueled trip back to an era I never knew but wish I had. Def Jux is an independent Hip Hop label. Bringing a group like Chin Chin on board seems strange but with additions like Dizzee Rascal, they are branching out in new directions and making some solid choices.

K-OS Defends Drake



K-OS recently announced over both Facebook and Twitter that he will be releasing a song with Drake later this week. While some of his fans shared his excitement over the release, many fans were not ashamed to hide their disappointment or even disgust by making direct comments to K-OS like, "WHAT!!.....why would you collab with him?", "FUCK DRAKE....K-OS DON'T DO IT" and "He is NOT that dope of an emcee - he's Wheelchair Jimmy..."

Shortly after the comments were made, K-OS came to Drake's defense by posting a song in which Drake collaborates with Saukrates and said, "Not an M.C? Not everyone is on the same page of what an M.C is or isn't. Oh well. LISTEN."
I guess K-OS is hearing something out of Drake that the rest of us aren't.

Marge Simpson for Playboy?


The November issue of Playboy hits the racks with the first cartoon character to grace the cover. In overall circulation figures, Playboy is down 9% from last year. The Marge Simpson cover is clearly a desperate attempt at gaining attention of their twenty-something audience, whom they lost to internet porn. Although, as a member of this demographic... I think its kind of creepy.

Accident? I think not.



Okay, there really are some awesome videos on Fail Blog that I highly suggest you check out daily, but I just had to put this video because there are so many funny elements to it!! Obviously, the bizarre way the video starts and the boing sounds are priceless, but the best part is how the buddy so obviously scoots right over to purposely trip the girl!
I feel bad for her but really, what the hell was she thinking- "I'll just run over and squat on the dog's head and run away?" That was probably the most action she's gotten in months.

its true..

The Lupe Fiasco Experience

Lupe Fiasco's new song "Fire" has some definite heat. Jimi Hendrix sample is sped up to a nice Hip Hop tempo and Lupe spits a raw and gritty flow over this legend's classic sound. Although the sound might be a shocker for your average bass, snare and hand clap fan, Lupe proves hes worthy of a classic rock sample of this caliber.

Death To Autotune

A follow-up to Jay-Z's D.O.A.(death of auto-tune) , auto-tune extraordinare T-Pain has released an apology song. It's really quite sad, until he talks about spreadin girls bitchasses and fuckin model hoes sideways like an s-curl. But anyway its an apology song so I guess hes pretty offended; we gotta have some sympathy for the guy(uhm right?)...its kinda funny tho, because Jay-Z is beefin T-pain and T-pain apologizes...yeah I don't know whats gunna happen next but I think T-Pain should auto-tune his life.. whatever that means... - For Your Health!

I fucking love super groups!

The Black Keys aren't new to working with rappers (gza) but being a two-man garage blues outfit, it seems weird...until you hear it. Their new project 'Blackroc' features such rappers as Mos Def, Q-Tip, Raekwon and from beyond the grave Ol' Dirty Bastard. Damon Dash produced this gem and will be releasing it on a new label launched with the management of the Black Keys. The new album will also feature cameos by, RZA, Ludacris, Pharoahe Monch, NOE, R&B singer Nicole Wray and MOP's Billy Danze. The first single 'Hoochie Coo' is streaming online now.
