Rock The Belles from dallas penn on Vimeo.
My favorite Internet Celebrity, Dallas Penn (DP!), with no ticket or press pass crashes Rock The Bells. I could say more but the video and his written commentary below say more than I can do it justice.
This is off Green Lantern’s new mixtape but I care less about that and more that this is the Nas I would consistently like to hear. As much criticism as he takes for his beat selection, you still shouldn’t doubt the power of his pen (pause). Nas always gets my respect, even with his bad choices. Glad to see him back on his feet after his personal drama. Salute this man. Via NR, RR, but mostly TSS.
Nas – Last Real N!gg* Alive Pt. 2

What?! Walking Dead is getting its own series on AMC? I guess, if I went to Comic-Con, I would’ve known this already. Very excited for this. Brilliant marketing to have it start on Halloween. Thanks to Combat Jack for the heads up!
The homie DJ Jr-Flo (Keys N Krates) sent me a link for fellow Eh! Team DJ, DJ Hedspin’s, tribute mix to the God MC, Rakim. I downloaded it earlier this week but after a listen this morning, I think all 57 readers of KTL should take a listen. Well executed and thoughtful sequencing. Tracklisting after the jump.
You might’ve seen these all over the internets recently, so I thought “why not share them with the five of you who haven’t?” Kenneth Keil recreated a series of iconic hip-hop album covers with some famous (and not-so-famous) Marvel & DC Characters. The results = genius hilarity. Check out all of them here. feel free to write in the comments section which one is your fav.
If this any indication of what’s to be on Black Milk’s new album, then this s hould be one of the best albums of 2010. Having eLZhi of the now defunct Slum Village and closing out the Detroit trio with Royce, makes for an lyrical barrage. the video is well-shot but I don’t think I’ve seen the sun shine that bright in The D. Let me know what you think!
San Jose’s own, The Bangerz (formerly The Finga Bangerz), have produced a hypnotizing joint that the Jabbawockeez ended up using. Filmed in San Jose during the subZERO festival, The Bangerz for the San Jose Taiko to drum with them (ala Yeezy’s Love Lockdown performance). Pretty amazing stuff. Shout outs to Goldenchyld and Cutso. Props to Blind I for the vid.
ODB stopped by Hot97 in 1995 to speak to Angie Martinez. This is just a snippet of what the world is missing right now. Check out a drunk ODB at YO! after the jump. CratesOfJR and GG shared this audio with all 57 of y’all.
Keys N Krates loves themselves some Drake and Aaliyah, so remixing this was a no brainer. Off of Drake’s album, they flip the Aaliyah intro into a monster dance anthem. FLO was so nice to send this to me a few weeks ago with the promise of not leaking it. I was allowed to play it in the clubs and every single time got a “This is dope! What is this?!” response. Look out for the fellas new mixtape coming out next month. Listen and download below.
