The KiD CuDi hype is still quite inevitable but I guess y'all are pretty used to it by now, if not, well, learn it live it love it. Anyway, some weeks ago a bunch of early Cudder-demos surfaced. Most of them were really really... bad. U know, typical demo leftovers, uninteresting tracks in terrible quality. Uninteresting and terrible with one little exception: a beautiful track called 'Hear The...
When the final version of KiD CuDi's upcoming third single that I've been hyping for some time now, 'Pursuit of Happiness' featuring neo-psychedelic-ish MGMT and electronic duo Ratatat, premiered Fridays on DJ Semtex BBC Radio 1 show, I was a bit tipzy and out, so yeah I missed it of course. But today when I woke up, in the worst mood in months, (still hungover from that Friday night btw. I dra...
Jay-Z shit aside, let's get back in business shall we? Old readers are more than familiar with one of Sweden's absolute best: Fiend. If ur not, well guess it's ur lucky day then! Cause today, on Fiend's birthday, First Up! and MyBestFriendIsMyGrind.com are proud to drop a bomb on u: Fiend's brand new EP "Dirty Likkle Secrets" vol 2. A release that shows what Fiend is all about, dirty proper gr...
I'm not that fond of this new track from one-man band, Konrad called 'Girls Gone wild' but I'm in love with the claymation created by award-winning animator Atom Burke:Konrad's debut album, "Loose Canyons" was released on Radical Turf in 2008. The album charted in the CMJ Top 200 upon it's release. He is currently finishing up a new album expected to dropping later this year.
Other than portraying "Lucky" in my high school yearbook photo me and Britney Spears lacks history. Me and Weezy on the other hand... Lil Wayne's 'Bad'-verse surfaced some time ago and here's the dealio, it's from a leaked demo of what Lil Wayne's HQ confirms to be an official collaboration with Britney called 'Bad Girl'.The track has some annoying RCC-drops but I actually truly like it.Britney...
No matter just how annoying Nicki Minaj's Barbie-spamming-tweets may be, I can't stop loving her. Nicki just officially became the first lady of Lil Wayne's Young Money label as she was signed to Young Money/Universal the 31st of August. During the last two years Minaj has emerged as one of the premiere rappers, choosing to fore go earlier label offers in order to establish a stronger fan base ...
Dunno how this could have happened really, how did I sleep on Ninjasonik until now? And how on earth could I've miss their ridiculously nyce remix of Major Lazer's 'Hold The Line'?! Not to mention their new mixtape (in collaboration with MИWKA NYC) under the stealthy "Darth Baño" moniker? The release features an all-star cast of guests, such as: Spank Rock, Theophilus London, The Death Set, Bla.
Okay, I woke up, my head is soon about to fall into pieces so I listened to that Jay-Z 'Already Home'-track with Cudder that has haunted me and the day officially hit rock bottom. That one was the only track I had hopes for, the only track I wished to blow my brains out, they are now gruesomely dashed. Jay-Z gives his thoughts regarding the leak of the new album to MTV; so he can tell from the ...
Yeah since both Rhapsody and MTV got the entire "The Blueprint 3" album available for listen to for free on Rhapsody.com and on MTV’s "The Leak" the inevitable has happened; the whole album is out there on the streets of Internet almost two weeks prior to its official release. Rhapsody will also make the new album available for purchase beginning September 8th, three days ahead of the street r.
Will do my rant about them new Jay-Z leaks later, been so many males and in particular Jay-Z on the site the past time, but that's about to change in this very moment.U know I love songs that mainly is about pussy right? Jacki-O's 'Pussy (Real Good)' was my theme song through out some crazy single and mingle years. Also love them female vs. male-replies concept songs. U know, the ones always be...
Due to the success of 'Best I Ever Had' Drake will release his highly rated mixtape "So Far Gone" as an EP on September 15th. The EP includes only 5 of the 18 songs of the mixtape ('Best I Ever Had', 'Houstatlantavegas', 'Successful' ft. Trey Songz and Lil Wayne, 'Uptown' ft. Bun B and Lil Wayne & 'The Calm') and two brand added new ones: 'Fear' (prod. by DJ Khalil) and the hot 'I'm Going In' f...
This Sunday has sucked elephant balls so far since I woke up with a sinus infection (minor but still, not feeling the feel of a constant cock jaw) and a blistering headache. But the day just went from sucky to great in a snap and here's the reason, Amazon (Germany) just provided 30 seconds snippets of every single track of KiD CuDi's upcoming album "Man on the Moon: The End of Day" + 4 extra bo...
Genre mash-up is in but the latest Jay-Z leak, 'Ghetto Techno' is not the homage to DJ Godfather I was hoping for or ghetto techno in any way, well, the only similarity might be that is pretty danceable. 'Ghetto Tec...
The Swedish equivalent to BBC Radio 1, SR P3 still annoys the hell outta me. Why? Well, still no one of their radio hosts can pronounce Wale (or KiD CuDi for that matter) correctly, not even the legend Germund Stenhag himself. That's bad and actually quite embarrassing, if u listen to Wale's tracks, u should have picked it up by know (since he address the topic in like every single one of them)...

One of my blog-readers tweeted the hilarious tweet: "Jay-Z and Brett Farve should have a retirement-off" the day before yesterday when 'Reminder' leaked and I wasn't late to reply with one big "WORD!". But in some sort of strange way I like this new leak, (yes, yet another one courtesy of the NMC and Shoot 5 Ent's mixtape "The Layout"). So even if Jigga should throw in the towel, I'm gotta cut ...
It would almost be a crime of me not to post the fresh cover of Dizzee Rascal's upcoming album "Tongue N' Cheek" (available to pre-order here, will be released the 21st of September). Just look how well it works with First Up!'s colour scheme, almost the perfect match! Love the tongue-play and I can totally picture Dizzee's future videos in this cartoon-ish style, u know, kinda like So-Me's wor...
The Very Best's debut album "The Warm Heart of Africa", full of Malawi whomp from Easu Mwamwaya's Motherland and Radioclit bangers, is finally available to purchase digitally today on iTunes. Physical copies on CD and Vinyl will be out the 6th of October. The hot 'Rain Dance' track ft. M.I.A is one cloud-gathering mayhem full of whistles, crickets, hand claps, toads, a rain stick, thunder, actu...
Wow! Leaks from Jay-Z's "The Blueprint 3" are pouring out right now! This one (comes via the NMC), is yet another produced by Timbaland and is track number 13 of the upcoming album."All bloggers with comments, please, I come in peace"...Yeah yeah yeah, however... Aside from the catchy "Reminder"-part the track is incredibly dull, sure a solid production, cause Timbo is always Timbo but the rest...
