So here’s a video I blatantly ripped off from a Facebook contact. I don’t really know a lot about it, except that it’s a spoof of the new Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly movie, “Stepbrothers,” by NBA superstars Steve Nash and Baron Davis. And yeah, it’s even better than you think it is:
Surprisingly, there’s still a big market for old school audio tapes. According to Gizmodo and the New York Times, prisons in America are huge consumers of old-school audio tapes. Apparently it’s because CD’s are too easy to make into shivs, whereas the tapes are not.
And yes, somewhere out there someone is still making tapes of [...]

Like the best horror films, “Rock The Bells” is an exercise in tension. Although billed as a concert documentary, Bells is an edge-of-your-seat thrill ride, and is far more exciting than most Hollywood fare these days.
The film’s protagonist is an affable concert promoter named Chang. Coming off a string of successful shows, Chang attempts the impossible: booking the entire Wu-Tang [...]
You voracious politicians out there (or those who are just convinced they can do a better job than the elected officials] may get a big kick out of this.
It’s a web-based game called “Budget Hero”. It’s essentially a simulation game that lets you pretend to set the budget for the United States Government. You get [...]
Seriously, I used to love these things.
The And1 Mixtapes were the best little blends of hip hop and basketball. They’d showcase some unreal talent both on the court and on the mic, and put it together in a nice little 20 minute package.
Nothing was quite as sick as popping that VHS in and yelling “OHHHH!!!” [...]
According to Wired, Curumin is a Jedi descipile from Brazil who makes “laid back Sao Paulo funk” (Wikipedia calls it samba-funk). Signed to Quannum (you know them as the home of DJ Shadow, Blackalicious, et al.), Curumin released his newest album, JapanPopShow, in May. A fantastic blend of funk, dub, hip-hop, samba, rock, and who knows [...]
Animal Farm is surprisingly witty. They’re a hip hop group out of Oregon that completely doesn’t take themselves too seriously.
They remind me a lot of Ugly Duckling, because they fully embrace that kind of silly-yet-meaningful sensibility. It’s a lighter side of hip hop, but one that’s no less important. Consisting of Erik Abel (Gen.Erik), Hanif [...]
This picture speaks a million words. As does the media who way over-analyzed things. The Telegraph, an otherwise esteemed UK paper, mocked and genuinely seemed concerned for Prime Minister Gordon Brown.
Mr Bush threw the Prime Minister off balance with his hip-hop-style handshake when the pair met during the outgoing President’s farewell tour of Britain.
Instead of [...]
This is far too entertaining to not post.
Two young fellows, Ike Edgerton and Chris Misa (apparently known as the quasi-hip hop duo Psikotic) have put together a little rap about the Economist magazine. It’s not even half-bad.
Definitely a nerdy thing to rap about, but I have to say it’s got a ertain something to it. [...]
Dre on the piano, and the Dogg Pound on the mic.
