Out My Window (Instrumentals + Bonus Beats)
Dom Thomas - Miscellaneous Mutant Mishaps
CD here
Fresh Daily
Untucked Nunchucks

Black Keys x Damon Dash - Black Roc
An interesting prospect...
I've always taken caution when Hip Hop meets Rock. When its done well you end up with something like Public Enemy or Run D, but most of the time it comes off wrong and you end up with something like Kid Rock or Limp Bizkit (I ain't gonna lie I was bumpin that shit when I was 12). So here we have The Black Keys teaming up with Mos Def (who has always been on a bit of a rock tip with Rock'n'Roll and his New Danger alum) & Jim Jones with direction from Damon Dash and few teasers in the video clip with Q-Tip, Pharoah Monch,Raekwon and the RZA (and more). Don't fret I know this is gonna be a million times better than Chocolate Starfish & The Hotdog Flavoured Water.
The Black Keys feat. Mos Def & Jim Jones - Hoochie Coo
props to vinylmeltdown for the heads up
R.I.P. Roc Raida (1972-2009)

Alex Goose - The Blueprint 3 Outtakes
Ok, not sure what the deal is here, but an A&R got in touch with this kid, and he ended up submitting some beats. (Not) suprisingly, none of the beats were used, and this guy posts them up on his site so the world can download for free.
Not really outtakes, as Jigga never actually spit on them, but whatever
Anyway, check it for yourself....

Hit the kid up on his myspace and tell him what you think
Survival Skills
So was chatting to a homie yesterday and he put me onto the new KRS1 and Buckshot Album "survival skills"(props to CEAP1 for the heads up)
Thought I would Share my favorite one featuring Marry J on the hook, Dam I love When Marry sings the hook...
KRS-One & Buckshot - The Way I LIve feat Mary J. Blige (Produced by Black Milk)
Download
Anthem, period. The production on this joint is fantastic and Mary J. proves again that she’s one of the best to do this Hip-Hop hook thing. KRS literally destroys this song with his insightful lyrics and inspiring flow. Hell, this may be my new alarm in the morning. This is one of the best songs I’ve heard this year. If this one doesn’t make radio, all the execs need to be fired. Sometimes, things are ready for the radio because they NEED to be heard, not because they are designed to be played on the air.

"He was shy as a teenager and at some times deemed "completely lacking in social skills". Now known by cutting to the raw essence of whomever appears before his lens. He is one of the most prolific and compelling photographers of his generation.
