31/10/09 - Rap-Ups N’ Mash-ups

What is it about kids’ cartoons that makes people out there want to remix them with obscene rap songs, however the results are more often than not hilarious. Here’s a couple I found. Where else can you see Bert and Ernie, Batman and Sponge Bob team up with M.O.P. Tech N9ne and Eminem?

28/10/09 - DJ Hero: RENEGADE Edition

Looking to play an musically interactive game on your favourite console, but want to keep it real to your culture?  Well now you can!

The highly anticipated DJ Hero has finally arrived, so here’s your chance to pay homage and experiment on one of the elements of hip hop.  As if this wasn’t expected to happen?  What really caught my eye is the RENEGADE Edition, where there’s added gold trims (instead of silver) on the turntable, AND a double CD - one of Jay-Z and the other of Eminem.  The release is a tribute to Jay’s forever killer track ‘Renegade’ featuring Em.

Cover art by our favourite street artist, Shepard Fairey.

Here’s the track list of the bonus disks:
