Music Video: Sway – Whose Line Is It Anyway?

Keeping the UK vibes going I had to post this:

“Using the background music of Ghostface Killah’s “Mighty Healthy”, Sway gives the public a chance to fill in the blanks of classic well known Hip-Hop lines in this modern homage to the greats. With popular lyrics and a landmark/unforgettable instrumental the track is instantly familiar for anyone who’s loved Hip-Hop from the early days to the last few years and you can’t help but feel the need to shout out every last lyric when completing them.

Shot by Bubz (Dcypha Films) & directed By DJ Turkish the visual concept for this video is inspired by Bob Dylan’s classic “Subterranean Homesick Blues”.”

Coincidentally I had just referenced that same Dylan video to a friend of mine who I am helping do some fundraising for the documentary she’s in the process of making. Hers is just a still photo though.

Music Videos: Jamieson – Things I Learned / Foreign Exchange

“The London bred wordsmith returns with another visual entitled “Things I Learned” off his forthcoming EP I Came, I Saw Vol. II. The second installment from Jamieson’s EP series includes guest appearances by Sean Price, Joell Ortiz, and Sony recording artist, Sammy.”

Sentiment of the song is appreciated but the flow here is from from mind-blowing. Great visual though. Hit the jump for the “Foreign Exchange” video, his commentary on the illegal immigration issue. (more…)

New Album: John Regan – Sorry I’m Late

The homie, John from Culture VI just sent me this stream of the Sorry I’m Late album by Baltimore MC, John Regan that came out last month a few days back. I guess he was sorry he was late! (Ba-dum dum!) Featuring guest appearances and production by Marsha Ambrosius, Nottz, Joell Ortiz, Needlz, Skyzoo Sha Stimuli, Naledge of Kidz in the Hall, 88-Keys, Ill Bill, PackFM and others, it’s got some gems on it. Check it and leave a comment to say what you think of this new MC. Have to say though: I’m kinda looking at this kid, Yuri Zwadiuk, who’s an executive producer and track producer on the album, sideways for calling himself ‘YZ’ though…

New Music: Duran Duran – All You Need Is Now (prod. by Mark Ronson)

MP3: All You Need Is Now by Duran Duran

Seriously… I think I actually love this! Does Simon LeBon kind of sound like Liam Gallagher c. the era of the 90’s Britpop heyday a bit at the beginning and in the verses or is that just me?
