AUDIO: Dope Boy (rmx) – Lupe Fiasco, Wale & Kardinal Offishall

Posted by KAGE on Aug 29 2008 | General

I’ve always been a fan of Lupe, from the mixtapes, to the album I needed to get my doctorate’s degree to understand, to the toy & luggage swagger, to the dumb it down lyrics on his latest album. So when I heard he linked up w/ Wale and K.O. from T.O. I nearly lost my s#it. All three verses are Dylan hot FI-YAH!!!  And all that over Chocolate Boy Wonder’s “T.R.O.Y.” beat make this track so dope it made a crackhead cry.

Props to SeaNY Sean for the look.

AUDIO: T.I. – Swagger Like Us

Posted by KAGE on Aug 29 2008 | General

I was like “BOOOOOOO!!!” when I heard that “Whatever You Like” song. Not my cup of coffee, tea or soda. It left me thinking that T.I. is up to the same silly “I’mma BALLUH!” B.S. that’s already chicken cesar salad in a tortilla (that’s a “wrap”). But then I found this little ditty and I thought that you know, This T.I. guy, he’s not that bad. At least he had sense enough to get 4 of the hottest rappers out now (Kanye, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne to be on his track to help up his lyrical game. That M.I.A. sample ain’t half bad either.

I might actually have to cop Paper Chase when it drops.

Or at least download the good tracks from iTunes.

AUDIO: Fall Out Boy Mixtape???

Posted by KAGE on Aug 29 2008 | General

OK, call me an EMO pansy, but I can’t front, I like Fall Out Boy. They got me with that “Arms Race” song. Yeah, Pete Wentz is a little nancy, but c’mon, their last album was executive produced by Jay-Z and they had Kanye on the remix. That’s pretty gangster for an EMO rock group. Are they even considered EMO after that? And they’re down with another guilty pleasure of mine in Gym Class Heroes, which I get s#it for still from my friends but screw it, that candy coated bubble pop hip hop put a god damn smile on my face.

Tracklist, D/L and more after the jump. . .

AUDIO: Teargas & Plateglass – Book of Black Valentines

Posted by KAGE on Jul 31 2008 | General

Teargas & Plateglass is my new favorite band. Imagine you’re a baby floating around in your mother’s birthsack and she’s listening to a Prince Paul or Dan The Automator album from back in the day. This shit is that dark. Flooded with heavy bass and eerie synth sounds; it’s the best soundtrack to your worst nightmares.

And DangerMouse likes them a whole bunch so if that’s not a cosign I don’t know what is.

EVENT: Flicks from the BK Hip Hop Festival

Posted by The ShadowPlastic Label on Jul 23 2008 | Events, General

We finally got off our collective asses and posted pics from The 4th Annual BKHHF. Needless to say it was a full day of fun and festivities. We had a blasty blast with the live screenprinting thing and got mad love from the fancy people and all the celebs. KAGE was holding it down printing like an Epson. So much so KRS1, the BLAST MASTER himself gave us a shout. Too bad The Major wasn’t on his photo game and blurred up the shots. Other than that, we killed it. Hip Hop could not ask for a better day to be celebrated. Props to YUME for making it happen.
