Earl "DMX" Simmons and Tiger Woods
Yeah, this has just about as much to do with golf, Nike and Tiger Woods as the original commercial. It's my take. I figured I'd let another Earl do the talking though.

Shad "Yaa I Get It" (teaser)
24 epic seconds from one of my favorite rappers, Shad, the Canadian rapper with witty tracks and dope lyrics over incredible production. His new album, "TSOL" drops North of the border in May. I might have to reach out to a Canadian friend to get it because there is no US release date as of yet. Check the 24 second teaser to "Yaa I Get It". And to get more of Shad, peep "Brother" from Shad off of his sophomore release, "The Old Prince" (if you don't have that album, GET IT!)

Download ... Jass Bianchi - Poetic Authority
Othello of D_cyphernauts hit me with this female MC named Jass Bianchi at one of the many Enter The Cipher events I went to. Had to scour the internet to find this mixtape that was no longer available for download from her MySpace page. I'm telling you. If you're gonna have one, keep it up to date. Never know who's trying to get your music. Haha. Check it...

Where @LadyBlogga Was Last Night…
If you don’t know, you need to get on board. The Noisemakers series hosted by Hot 97’s Peter Rosenberg is on point. Noisemakers is a live interview segment that gets up close and personal with the artists. If you are a true Hip Hop head, this is something you need to see and will definitely appreciate. Rosenberg ‘s knowledge of Hip-Hop is uncanny. He knows Hip-Hop inside and out. Definitely evidence that he is a true music man.
I was finally able to catch a live Noisemakers segment. Last night at 92YTribeca Rosenberg hosted a Noisemakers segment and the guest was the legendary Pete Rock. In between, the band Noise (with @DaruJones on the drums) took it to another level and covered his creations live… Horns, drums, keyboard… The whole bit. Last night was a music lover’s dream. Rosenberg and Pete Rock took me back to a time when music was eargasmic. And the fact that they were not only talking about the songs and beats but playing them as they came up in conversation was CRAZY!!! “Adore”, “Fakin’ Jacks”, “Soul Survivor”, “T.R.O.Y.”, “Down With The Kings”, “Skins” Whaaaaaaaat?? It put you back in that time and I swear, musically, it made me want to go back.
Pete Rock went from where he started, what he did in between and what he is doing now. Listening to the people he worked with, how he works and what he’s worked on is just incredible. His story is amazing and I think the way Rosenberg had him tell it made it even more interesting.
The best part was hearing that Pete Rock has his hands in all kinds of projects. Nas, Kanye (yes y’all.. He was summoned to Hawaii to creatively assist Kanye), Smif and Wesson, Sadat X, Camp Lo (80 Blocks from Tiffany’s)… Just to name a few. And he made it known that he wants to work with Eminem and Jay. It doesn’t make sense for me to tell you anymore, here is the whole segment. To hear the Kanye info come out the horse’s mouth, check Part 2. I really recommend you take the time, pour yourself a drink and check this out. Enjoy!!!

Kiely Williams is Spectacular or train wreck? [Vid]
As O said, after watching the Kiely Williams video you need to wash your eyes out for two minutes. Shoot, make that 15. As if the video and song weren't bad enough, this confused young lady decided to take to video to respond, claiming the meaning was a bit deeper and as an actress she was merely playing a role [I frowned after typing this line]. Yeah, right. Anyway, I took to video to give my feedback on the video. Enjoy.
Check It ... @ShaPrince "Click Click Bang Bang"
Check the new joint from the homie Sha Prince featuring D-Sisive and DJ Grouch. It's dope. Enjoy.

What @ladyblogga is Listening to: Mr. Lingo from Live Manikins "Pushing Daisies”
It’s springtime and there is nothing like good weather and great tunes. The Sacromento Hip-Hop scene is on top of their game and bringing bangin’ tunes to the people. Mr. Lingo from Live Manikins had the right idea with “Pushing Daisies” featuring Asia Lakay. Upon listening to the first 30 seconds, I knew this was one for the playlist. You might’ve caught Mr. Lingo and the Manikins opening up for Gym Class Heroes or performing with Del the funkee Homosapien or Souls of Mischief. Mr. Lingo puts solid lyrics on a smooth beat to create this track. The Mixtape, “Greatest Hits 1900 – Present” is due out later this Fall. Mixtape guests have yet to be confirmed but given their performance roster, I am sure they will be impressive. This is what the Lady is listening to:

The 2010 AMC Convention
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.
