Not much detailed information on these except that they will be dropping in 2009. All over-print cherry Dunk Hi’s for the sneakerhead ladies out there. I snagged this picture from Hypebeast.com. Pretty fresh huh?

Exactly

If you didn’t come out this past Saturday to The Echoplex then you definitely missed out on one hell of a time. Here’s some footage of Pac Div performing a snippet of their new joint called She feat. TiRon and Mayor. It’s incredible how no one has Mayor but everyone knows it! In any case, check the footage and feel bad you weren’t there.

Shouts out to Hyphlife for the footage! There….all better. :)

Found this mixtape in my email and it comes from DJ Haylow. It’s a mixtape featuring a lot of the new artists that made noise this year and will be making a lot more noise in 2009. The artwork for this mixtape really caught my eye then I read the featured artists and felt it was worth a post. I think this will be playing in my car for a minute….

Tomorrow night will definitely be a live night! The good folks over at DubFrequency and The Echoplex are throwing an event featuring performances by Pacific Division, U-N-I, The 87 Stick Up Kids, Dom Kennedy, Million $ Mano, Diz Gibran, Them Jeans and more! It’s 18 and up so all of you new adults can come out and get your grown up on, but it’ll run you 18 bucks. It’s only 10 dollars for you 21 and uppers though!

LOL@how little they made Like of Pac Div on the flyer in comparison to the rest of em.

Exactly.

With the year 2012 rapidly approaching it’s about time they decided to make a movie on the end of the Mayan calendar. We haven’t had a good “end of the world” movie in a minute. I’ve heard terrible things about The Day Earth Stood Still so hopefully this movie will make everyone shit their pants.

Here’s a new one from Blu that was ripped from his MySpace page called ChangeYaWorld. I wouldn’t feel right typing it with spaces simply because it’s part of what makes Blu so unique. In any case, not too sure who is on the beat but check it out anyway….

This must have taken a while to figure out but definitely well worth it. AKQA Films decided to put a bunch of different microwaves together and turn them all on in a specific order so their timer dings play out Jingle Bells….pretty creative.

Exactly.

I heard VIMBY was dropping a mixtape early 09 and I guess this confirms it. Here’s footage of Buff 1, TiRon and Ayomari in the studio working on a joint called Def 82 produced by Cook Classics. It’s good to see dope artists in the same room writing together instead of showing up with pre written verses.

Haven’t gone to any holiday parties yet? Well tonight at Little Temple in Los Angeles there’s gonna be a pretty fresh party featuring guests like Pac Div, Dom Kennedy and U-N-I. Doors open at 9 and its 21 and up so get your shit together before you come out. See you there!

Exactly.

Over @ Stereogum.com they have a series called ‘Decomposed’, which consists of bringing together up-and-coming indie artists, established artists & musicians for a live studio session to JAM OUT! Here’s a brief synopsis:

A few weeks ago he put out a call for a pianist and an a cappella group to help decompose some tunes for us. Along with those folks, he brought a pretty enthusiastic up-and-comer named Jermaine Dupri (!). Throw in a cowboy flutist, Alone II tunes, and a Beach Boys cover, and you have a Rivers-sized holiday spectacle.

Now I don’t know about ya’ll, but I’ve been listening to Jermaine Dupri in one form or another for the better part of my life and I can’t say I expected this from him, LOL. This is pretty fresh.
