YAY! Finally after what seems like forever the MV of Se7en’s US Debut single is here. Girls is the name and it features Lil Kim. The MV is cute and all…more or less a typical club-party-scene. It’s nice…however I’d have loved to see Se7en dancing…’cuz the man can dance his ass off. But I’m coo with just this. Lil Kim…is Lil’ Kim. She did her thing on the track, but I’d rather her rapping than singing most of it. Seriously if she’d rapped throught most of  her verse it would have really made it hotter than it already was. Oh yeah and I think I spotted Lisa Raye in the vid as well.  Overall, while it’s not like WHOA, it’s a good video and I’m happy for Se7en. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the full video, which is exclusively on Myspace, add Se7en, and support him when his album is available on iTunes, mmkay?

The conscious Canadian rapper, K-Os, releases his fourth studio album, Yes!, on March 31st, 2009. I didn’t even know he was dropping a new album, until I saw the video for “4 3 2 1” about a week ago. Haha. The video, song/lyrics, and beat are all on point though.

After the jump, you’ll find the single (youtube music video) from his new album. I’m just going to get straight to the point: posting the video. If you want to read a good review on the album, I suggest you go here.

So I’m sure that by now you’ve at least seen the commercial for hulu starring Alec Baldwin and if you’re like me, you wondered what it was about right? Well I finally decided to check out hulu, and well… I love it! Think of it as Youtube, without the 10minute time limit, the “this video was removed…” messages, and searching through  countless unrelated videos until you find what you’re looking for. The only drawback is that unlike Youtube, you can’t get your fix of  K-dramas…but then again, there’s always My Soju for that. Anywho hulu is awesome…I’m talkin’ uninterrupted (kinda) shows from both cable and network stations! Sign me up!

I think it’s very sweet that Eligh and his mother, Jo, are making music together. Bridging hip hop and folk music together. And it’s good, too! Infact, it’s amazingly good.

Incase you’re not familiar, Eligh is part of the underground hip hop group, Living Legends. He’s been doing music for over 12 years as both an emcee and a producer. He has 10 solo albums and various compliation albums. Ahhh, I love Eligh (hahah). His mother, Jo, sang songs of struggle: civil rights, labor and peace movement songs. She’s led crowds in song at rallies attended Cesar Chavez, Angela Davis, Jesse Jackson, and various other activists. She has also appeared as a guest vocalists on a few Living Legends tracks.

Yeah, so about two weeks ago it was announced that two lucky fans will get the chance to win a date with international superstar Se7en. When I first read about it I was kinda like “Arf?! O_o” because it sounded a little weird. Probably because I don’t read teenybopper magazines anymore so a “Win A Date” contest threw me off. Also I’d been hearing some rather crazy talk about Se7en’s debut and I didn’t know what to believe…anywho, the idea has grown on me and I think it might actually be cool to hang out with Se7en for a day….

It’s not a secret that KAWS teamed up with Kanye West for his “808′s and Heartbreak” album artwork. In NYC, you can see a new billboard, located at 45th and 7th street.

Now there’s a KAWS x Kanye inspired shoe. They’re called “808s & Heartbreak” AF1 for Kanye. They were customized by MACHE and emmanueLabor. Personally, I wouldn’t wear these (some of you may though!). Just giving props to MACHE & eL, because they did an ill job on the shoes / artwork. And props to KAWS, because I’m sure he’ll be gettin’ $$$ from these… if they sell a bunch of them

MACHE makes some dope customs by the way, so check out his page. :]
