New York City is a cultural plethora of music, the arts and fashion. The Underground music and arts scene in New York City is incredible. On any given day of the week you can find an exhibit, a new music artist showcase or a fashion show to attend. I do my best to shed light and support these events when I can. I believe that the Underground Movement is an important piece of bringing the music, art and fashion industry back to where it needs to be.
Young Successful Society and Quiet Riot Media have come together to bring the arts, fashion and music together at one time, in one venue. On April 19th at Gallery Bar (change of venue because Sputnik flaked) from 8pm – 12am the 2010 AMC Convention will be in full effect. The Convention will be showcasing the works of Deadstock RIC, RSNY, Brooklyn Robot, UPSCENE, YC the Cynic, Pk Pat, Kalil Kash and a whole host of other exhibitors. The presenters are from all 5 boroughs as they aim to bring their generation, location and art form together.
Guaranteed you will find something to your liking as there is something represented for everyone. The grindstyle is evident in all finished products and this younger generation is coming harder and better. They aim to please and that exactly what the Convention will do. I’ll see you at the Convention.
Check it, another dope episode of The Mad Bloggers show. It's number two and we're still trying to get the hang of putting this thing together. I pulled most of the tracks together this week, OC handled the intro and as always MP did his thing mixing it all together. We're learning. It's a process. Hope you enjoy.
Oh, and don't forget to subscribe, so you can get greatness delivered directly to your music playing devices each week. Thanks for the support!

I'm going to make this short and sweet, download the Laundry Day EP from theOTHERSIDE x Haz Solo. Six dope tracks. Now wash them clothes. Oh, throw it on repeat, so you can get through drying and folding them too! Enjoy!
I've been hitting you with leaks from this project, now it's finally here, Rhymefest's "Dangerous: 5-18" Mixtape. This is the pre-LP mixtape, ahead of Rhymefest's sophomore project, "El Che". Enjoy.
I caught this from the homegirl Emperess on twitter earlier. Fresh cut from Cion Burris of Brokn.Englsh. Elite Assembly's "Welcome To The Playoffs" mixtape drops April 19th 2010.
Dope vid and track from the homie ScholarMan. The vid features Karmia Berry and NC producer Lagbara and is directed by Marques Green of Que Films. Enjoy.
Editor's Note: Hoes will be hoes and giving them attention is what gets them book deals, reality television shows and "fame", so I opted NOT to include this chicks name on our blog, even though most people know who is being talked about in this piece (especially since her pic is below). But I wanted Tha Lady Blogga to let this chick know what she was/is doing wasn't anything special, nor was it anything to be proud of. Young girls looking to this chick as a role model need their fathers in their lives (and a throatchop). If you're a dad, hug your daughters and threaten their lives if they have any intentions of EVER doing any hoe shit like this (even if they're only 2 weeks old). PS: Damn, this chick has the most annoying voice EVER and needs to open her eyes (literally).
You see… There is always someone to prove me right. There is nothing like a groupie scorned. This [we'll call her Kitten] chick is that girl I try to warn y’all about. Groupies are nothing but a problem. People say “let them live” but seriously, she is that ass pimple that just won’t go away.
Sleeping with people and then putting their information on blast is the biggest hoe come up in the book. And people are letting her do it! She didn’t even sleep with anybody worth mentioning. Young Money?? Really? Bow-Wow? PLEASEEEEEE! I mean if it wasn’t Drake, who gives a fuck? And Lil Wayne? We already know that if it’s a damp hole he’ll stick it, so that doesn’t really say much either.
Her videos and tweets give you the story. She is that not so smart girl who could do nothing else but sling crotch for a living. And not even well enough to get a ride home from the dudes she was screwing. They sent her home in a CAB!! LMAO Not only is she stupid but so are the few thousand bird followers that are supporting her. Young women everywhere are following her and listening to her every word. I swear, she is the one thing society did not need right now. Kitten, what kind of woman are you that you would exploit yourself and other people’s personal lives like this? I wonder if she’s mad because they mistreated her in some kind of way. Perhaps they didn’t give her the money she asked for or those front row concert tickets she requested. She chose to sleep with these men. That alone should void anything she says. They didn’t force themselves on her or anything. People paying sooo much attention to “Tales of a Groupie” is just ridiculous. She’s giving up information like where people live, phone numbers, dick size, longevity… And for what?? Because she’s a broke bitch lookin’ for a dollar? This is a dangerous game she’s playing. And she’s lucky that none of these dudes have a wife or girlfriend like me. Seriously, not only would my significant other catch a bad one but she would too.
Now y’all know that I don’t condone violence but when it is in my backyard, anything goes.
She is setting a horrible example for young women, like herself, that have low self-esteem. She is showing them that negative attention is good attention and it’s not.
Ultimately though, who’s to blame here?? The men. They had to have seen that she was a piece of work. Her voice alone should have been a turn-off. But all they see is free puss and an opportunity to get one off right quick. Some men have no ability to make a mindful decision when their penis is erect. It is a sad but true reality I am learning quick and fast. But one better, there’s still some dudes out there that will allow their penis to find their way in between her legs even after all of this. #MANFail!
But in the meantime, Kitten, you need to sit back and take a good look at your life and the crap you created. Since you are so entwined in the rap game right now, perhaps my friends from Brand Nubian can help you put things in perspective...
This damn "Love Junkie" remix is highly addictive (pun intended). Donwill's "Don Cusack In High Fidelity" is also dope. Go get that, like yesterday. Enjoy this joint from the homie.
Download this album by Myk Dyaleks titled Chord on BLEU or just listen it in its entirety online. I did both. Shoutout to @Emperess for hitting me on Twitter with good music and now I'm passing it along to you. Free! How easy was that? Haha.
