Vibes and Stuff

That which we call a Leica, by any other song would sound as sweet.
And welcome to my dilemma. Here before you are two leica reels of a film I am currently putting together; both put to different music. Mind you they both need a little re-working but the film is going to stay relatively similar regardless of what song is chosen. My problem is I can't decide on which song to use...

Here's where you come in: Give each a watch and let me know what you think. Both are approx 30 seconds each so take a minute homies.


Song: Super Brother by Guitar Vader
(note: the darkness at the end is reserved for the credits)


Song: Pushing the Sky by Yoko Kanno
(note: at the beginning when the dude's leaning against the wall, he'll be singing the lyrics)

Can't Tell Me Nothing

As most of you know, Kanye West and 50 Cent have been feuding over who's album would come out victorious on September 11th. The massive debate that caused Fiddy to claim that if Kanye West's album Graduation could outsell his album Curtis he would stop doing solo albums. Well, for all those of you who are religious members of Ban50.com, your wish may come true! West's album has a six-figure lead over 50's. Graduation leads with 781,000 units, followed by Curtis with 603,000.


A few nights ago I had the honor of watching a very special episode of Much Music's RAP CITY. The witty witty producers thought it ingenious to play the following video's back to back


then..

and then

and finally


Those clever people at Much Music, but what do they know about music and who the winner should be? Let the good people of 106 & Park tell you XD



ZOMGZ!!!!1

For those of you who can't seem to come to a consensus on which album to go out and buy, I'll give you a hint on which one I'm listening to right now:

The one with the good music on it

If you can't figure out what I'm talking about let this extremely biased article tell you more about it.

BRUSH YO TEETH!!!

Forever Begins

OH EM GEE!!!!

On July 31st, 2007 Lonnie Rashid Lynn, also known as Common released his 7th installment, Finding Forever.

At the sake of trying to not sound like an after school special, Imma be lettin' y'all know about the magic that is Finding Forever. No really... I DO have my reservations with this album, so ch-check it!

First and foremost, I should say that this ain't the C-O-Double-M-O-N's best effort to date. After listening to it for the first time I found my self saying "Com just doesn't have the lyrical integrity on this album as he does on his previous chart-droopers"
That's when it hit me that that is exactly what people were complaining about Electric Circus. THEEE Electric Circus that I pride as my favorite album of all time that has been considered my "bible" and been described as putting me into an "Orgasmic Trance".
With that said I didn't want to sound like a hypocrite, so I gave it a few more listens... like a few dozen more that same night.
What I discovered was this album has the wrong title!! This should be called BE, not Finding Forever, Be should be called Finding Forever!!!! (you feel me?)
On this album, Com seems to feel at most very comfortable with just being, he describes the lives of people through song and the such. The dude has finally arrived to this tip where he can just kick back and actually just rhyme bout whatever and just Be with it.. my argument is that the album BE is his closest attempt to perfection, more critically acclaimed than anything else he has ever done in his career including 'I Used to Love H.E.R.' and his first Grammy earned with ex-girlfriend Erykah Badu. That album was his true open hand at "forever" and that's where he found it. Finding Forever is where he comes full circle while still being able to evolve from the 40 drinking emcee he was 15 years ago on 'Can I Borrow a Dollar' in '92.

k... that's the orgasmic trance I was talking about, sorry

All in all, a dope album.. but no where as close to perfection or 5 mics or XXL's or whatever as Be was.

some things do confuse me just a bit though.
The fifth track sounds like he really REALLY misses Miss Badu (Awwwwwwwww) and he has none other than Will.I.Am to be his wingman on his "Yes/No/Maybe" note

'So Far to Go' is my only real beef with the album. I almost (and I do stress almost) want to skip it when listening, Why?? When announced that there would be a new Dilla produced track on the album I was geeked in anticipation to find out what it may be, just to hear the same beat that was on Dilla's 'The Shining'. Now that's cool, it's a DOPE track. The issue is Com re-wrote the lyrics to it with nowhere to go but down.

C'mon Com, if you're going to redo your own track AT LEAST MAKE IT BETTER, don't disgrace Dilla Dogg by make it a snoozer dude.

Not to mention this little tidbit of information your male fan base didn't exactly need to know

Creative with the gifts, plus he hit it from the back! (Ugh!)
And places we ain't supposed to

Hmmmmmm... Common likes it in the bum ay?

The follow up track is a beautiful ballad about how Common really just can't settle down. Sorry ladies,

as far as wives [He] was thinking like Solomon

but with entourage like this can you blame him?












Ah well, if I were a certain head wrapping soulquarian better call Tyron eclectic singer I might be a little hurt... but I ain't so HA!











Dope album, I'd buy it if I hadn't already





Dirty Anubis Dre the Nomadic Armenian from Mars give this album a WHOPPIN' FOUR K-OS HOODIES OUTTA FIVE

American Terrorist

And on a completely unrelated topic,
Nasir Jones is one snappy dresser




that douche is always a few thousand dollars ahead of me, I've wanted that chain pendant since I was 14... ass-hat

I thought you had the keys!?

If you're anything like me, you'll agree that transforming robots belong just about anywhere. Rihanna's video Shut Up and Drive is no exception.

C'mon... the girl is sprinkling her tight Bajan self all over these american muscle cars and NOT ONE OF THEM TRANSFORMS!!! what's up with that!?

So here's a little love for Bumblebee
