Shad's TSOL Arrives in the US


Shad has arrived. I've had this album for a few months now but TSOL has finally been delivered to the States. This is definitely one of my favorite releases this year. If you're not up on Shad, use this album as an opportunity to get familiar. Or continue to sleep and miss out. You make the choice.

Reality TV Needs "Boss Chicks"




As Reality T.V. is my sometimey guilty pleasure, I think this show just might be a good one. There are a lot of women in the industry, blogsphere and literary world who are doing great things. Talk Dat Ish Entertainment and VH-1 are looking to cast women who dominate in the industry and want to share their story. Now, I know quite a few women that rule this industry and if VH-1 casts the right ones, this show might be something worth watching. You MUST BE in the NYC area to participate. The dates and places are as follows:

Wednesday, October 6
Rolling Out Magazine
12 Debrosses Street
bet. Hudson & Greenwich
Time: 1-5 PM & by appointment between 5-7 PM

Friday, October 8

Check It ... @ChrisWebby - "Bulletproof featuring @JoellOrtiz" (produced by Evo)

Check out the latest by Chris Webby featuring Joell Ortiz. It's definitely a different sound on this one due to the sampling of La Roux's Bulletproof track. Listen and tell us what y'all think.



Connecticut's own Chris Webby is putting the finishing touches on his upcoming mixtape (still untitled) that will be dropping this fall and it will feature Joell Ortiz, Big K.R.I.T (among others) and production from Doc Ish and Cinematic Music's Johnny Shipes.

The first leak from that forthcoming mixtape is "Bulletproof" f/Joell Ortiz and produced by Evo--and the track samples La Roux's smash hit "Bulletproof."
