Check It ... Louwop feat. Shad and Zaki "One 2 Check"

Caught this link on twitter from @thecomeupshow. This is a dope track from Louwop featuring Zaki Ibrahim and my boy Shad (yeah, I do a lot of Shad posts). You'll definitely enjoy it!

"The concept for the video was simple, capturing the energy and joy of a cipher. I decided to go with a live version of the songs to give you something different and perhaps intrigue you to listen to the original versions. Live is always special for it’s the moment captured that leaves its’ mark unrehearsed, pure and honest."

Until December 31st Louwop is making his album "The Great Escape" free to the public. Check his website for the link.

When She Speaks, You Listen: Tha Lady Blogga "The Grammy Nods"

So the Grammy Nominations are in place and the show is set for January 31st, 2010. Beyonce leads the pack with 10 nominations, Lady Gaga has a few. Keri Hilson found her way into the New Artist category. And once again Kings of Leon is paired up with Green Day in a category. I’m sorry Green Day, you’re great and all but Kings of Leon needs to be shown some love.

The R & B categories are pretty jacked up. I wonder if the Grammy world is aware that they nominated a potential child molester? He has no business being nominated for that bullshit “Boyfriend #2” song anyway…Oops. T-Pain?? That’s R & B? Well at least they acknowledged that his music ain’t Rap. There were really no other R & B artists to give the nod to? Glad to see Anthony Hamilton, Maxwell and no offense… I love Michael Jackson and all but he shouldn’t be nominated for old songs being re-introduced. He won already. Please and Thanks.

So I continue to scan the list of categories and nominees and I make my way to the Rap/Hip Hop categories. And ya know, I am trying to be a little more lenient in how I address certain issues but these award shows… are a crock of shit. I was excited to finally see some substance in these categories. Mos Def, Common (even though that wasn’t his best work), Q-Tip, HOV, Eminem, Drake… Yea I said Drake. Even though he fell off the slippery slope into Young Moneyville, he was the shit when he took the world by storm with his mixtape movement and his bangin’ ass lyrics… “Best I Ever Had” is a hit. No matter how you look at it. Yea I said it. They placed HOV in a category twice and I thought that was a bit much. I mean, was that really necessary? And Kid Cudi well, I am not impressed. So I continued to check the nominees and as usual, there began the foolery. Flo Rida is up for a “Best Rap Album” Grammy. Grammy world, are you serious? And I appreciate the definition of the category underneath… “For albums containing 51% or more playing time of VOCAL tracks.” Oh okay so… If I talk on most of my album and sing bullshit hooks for the rest, I’ll get nominated for a Grammy. Wonderful. That’s not Rap fools!!!

Oh and I think this has to be the best nomination of all time… “I’m on A Boat” The Lonely Island & T-Pain for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration. What on God’s green earth is this? I can think of hundreds of better collabos than this crap. I don’t even understand how this became a choice. And I refuse to link the video because I am not advertising that bullshit. The fact that I mentioned it is enough. Google it. Well I mean, just like all the other hip slop, this fits right in. Commercial nonsense that people call rap. I am not surprised at the garbage nominations. We expect that. But damn, can we give the right musicians the win?

ThrowBack Thursday ... The Roots "Break You Off"

Sooooooo … This has got to be one of my favorite tunes of all times. The Roots “Break You Off”, is a classic. There is a lot of talent in this video that had yet to pop. Musiq is killin’ the hook. Roland “Wee-Bay” Brice (HBO’s the Wire) is playing the angry boyfriend. The Roots never disappoint on a track though. I love the concept of this song. So prevalent to what’s fresh in our society. A modern day Sodom and Gomorrah. Well not that bad, but the commitment situation out here is serious folks. People want to have their cake and eat it too. Men can’t handle a step out and us women well, it’s all about what we allow. The ending to this video has become a sad reality… Enjoy.

AZ - The Come Up (Ritchcraft Remix)

Ritchcraft, a producer from Halifax, N.S. Canada, has released four different remixes so far in what he calls "Ritchcraft's Weekly Remix Series (Every Tuesday)". He hit me up on Twitter to let me know today's remix is out featuring AZ on the track "The Come Up". I am definitely feeling the twist he put on it. According to him, he's releasing a 6 remix EP in about 2 weeks or so since none of the remixes he has done are available for download.

Check @TheRealEternia presents "The 411: Because I am a Girl" Tour Video!

Message From Eternia:

I get a lot of questions from my family, friends and fans about the “411: Because I am A Girl” school tour. I figured instead of trying to explain what I do, as a Hip Hop artist, at these schools. I would show you.

I am blessed to tour with a wonderful family of inspiring ladies: Nana (who is shown hyping me up in these clips, but she hosts the entire show!), Hip Hop artist Masia One,and the founder of The 411 Initiative for Change & these school tour programs, Tamara Dawit. We even have our very own DJ – Kyle – who, besides tour managing, driving, doing our sound, and generally doing everything else, also reps “Because I Am A Girl” proudly. :-D

A special shout out goes to the students of all the Ontario schools featured in this video: Marymount Academy in Sudbury, Brechin P.S. in Brechin, Cathy Wever in Hamilton, Assumption in St. Thomas, and Sioux Mountain in Sioux Lookout.

To the 18 schools that we’ve rocked for thus far: I will never forget your energy, your interest, your faces, and your stories. Thank you for sharing your world with me, and allowing me to share mine with you.

Rock, Rock On!

eternia.
