My good friend and DJ mentor, DJ Malachi, has just gotten some love over at Vapors magazine for his most recent mixtape, Chocolate Luv Luv. This CD is packed with dope blending and a soundtrack to finally woo over that special someone in your life. My girl has stopped listening to my mix CDs b/c of this CD. I got bumped to #2 on the Fav DJ list. Get ready for his next installment of the Luv Luv series, Belafonte Luv Luv. You can buy the mixtape at the Giant Peach.

I know that you all thought that M.I.A. had retired and wasn’t going to make any more music. But here is something new from mad decent / M.I.A., Tic Toc. I like it, but i will only listen to it a few more times then delete it from my Hard Drive.
This is a catchy song and all, but I AM not feeling the Game too much these days. I only posted this because I love what Travis Barker is doing these days. Last night, I saw the Travis Barker and DJ AM show at the Roxy in Los Angeles. It was quite a good show, it was the second time i have seen them perform. DJ AM is still the same, pretty lame, but Travis is off the hook with his drumming. I don’t like it too much when they play the Beastie Boys sh!t, but I understand that the crowd is all from the OC. My fiance and I played a game of, what will there be more of, Ed Hardy/Afflication T-Shirts, or Famous Stars and Straps T-Shirts. She didn’t know that the Famous comes out in full force to promote there “boy” (Travis Barker). But anyways it was a good show, we stayed in the far back just by the door and had our ear plugs in.
Since this song is number two in the biggest music retailer (iTunes), I guess everyone wants to rap over this track. Just gives me reason to post Paper Planes featuring Jim Jones.
I don’t know why DFLO or Anthony have been hiding this info from me. I know I am not as hardcore a Rage or Mars Volta fan as those two guys but c’mon… I didn’t even know this was going on. Zach and Jon from Mars - word?! Very excited about this One Day as a Lion project! How was this so under the radar? This is definitely being played on my stereo all weekend! Props to HHIR for the heads-up, LA Bloggers gotta stick together.
I know DFLO is going to be mad that I am posting this but “oh well!”, this song is fire. Even if you are hardcore hip-hop head, you need some Marvin, Stevie, Al Green, D’Angelo, or John Legend in your iPod. After listening to the joint, I realize that Lil Wayne sounds like a drunk, handicapped version of Andre’s freestyles. Props to Nation @ NR. I see ya, boy!
The almighty Itunes has declared June to be “Black Music Month”. So that means, let’s focus on Hip-Hop and R&B sales in the 2nd Quarter! To encourage more buyers of Itunes music, they are setting up free performances of Black Music at their stores. Full concert listings after the jump. Go have fun, kiddies! (HHDX)
