Para One Goes Big in Japan
Tuesday, February 19th, 2008Ayumi Hamasaki. This name might not mean much to our American readership, but let me list off some facts here. She’s the best selling female and solo Japanese artist in history. She’s the only female solo artist with 30 number-one singles. Oh yeah and she’s the best selling Japanese female [...]
Gonzales is the T-Pain of Paris
Thursday, February 14th, 2008There exists this particular kind of person, the one that unabashedly does his thing, follows his heart, does it a lot, and does it well. It’s the kind of person that simply loves to create and will indulge whatever whim they have and make something beautiful out of it. Gonzales is a perfect [...]
Natasja’s Calabria / Booty Cologne & Mapei
Thursday, January 17th, 2008As I was listening to Z100 in the cab on the way to the airport this summer, I was more than surprised to hear the song that would become everyone’s favorite summer jam, Enur & Natasja’s “Calabria”. While it was great to see this tremendous song, re-executed perfectly by two of Denmark’s finest, reach the [...]

Ed Banger X Target / Eurogirls In Baltimore
Wednesday, January 16th, 2008Do you live in Paris, Idaho, but dream of Paris, France? Are you surrounded by limitless suburbs, devoid of cultural outlets? Are you alone, young, poor and obsessed with the Cult of Ed Banger?
Shipping from Colette is ridiculous. The nearest H&M is 800 miles away. Not to mention you are 15 [...]
10 Things I’m Sick Of Hearing Rappers Say
Thursday, December 20th, 20071: I never claimed to be a role model: There’s not exactly an application process for this position homie. In a country where celebrity is held in the highest regard and the Black community’s agency historically has been heavily relegated through years of structural oppression and marginalization you actually happen to be extremely relevant, particularly [...]
Where Brooklyn At? Palms Out Catches Up With Dave Nada
Wednesday, December 12th, 2007Last Saturday we met up with Dave Nada in Brooklyn shortly before his set at Southpaw to ask him some questions. A few hours and several vodka tonics later we found ourselves thrusting in a mess of Park Slope partygoers. While his first round at the tables got the crowd going, the second nearly set [...]
And The Winner Is… Menehan?!
Thursday, November 29th, 2007By now, most of you have heard the new single off Jay-Z’s much-hyped American Gangster album “Roc Boys (And The Winner Is…)”. What many don’t know, are the people responsible behind the blaring horns Jay raps over. The composition, entitled ‘Make the Road by Walking’, is a single released by the Menehan Street Band, [...]
Teki on Texas
Wednesday, November 28th, 2007Teki Latex and Devin the Dude… The pairing of these rap juggernauts (OK, “cool kid” rap juggernauts) has been drifting across the blogosphere for some time. A version of 33hz‘s single “Paris Texas” found it’s way into my “top down” rotation last WMC. The contagious pop appeal, the silky hook, fat chords, and [...]

Tuesday, October 23rd, 2007If you thought Bmore was over, bitch shut the fuck up.
