11.06.09Skewby – “Proving You Wrong Since 1988 – The Mixtape” proves Memphis hip-hop is moving in a new direction.Skewby, "Proving You Wrong Since 1988 - The Mixtape" Hip-hop heads, Skewby is in the house and he's letting you know right up-front: this ain't what you're used to. Proving You Wrong Since 1988 is a warning filled with shots fired at the status quo of Memphis's traditional style of rap. I've had this sitting in my queue for a couple of months now, and to say I slept on it would be an understatement. Don't you be a sleeper, too -- if you do not have this mixtape, you are sleeping on one of the illest mixtapes ...

08.15.08TRIBUTES: Andy Gill offers an insightful and moving tribute to the hot buttered soul of Stax and Isaac HayesReviewing reviewers isn't really the norm around these parts; I'm not a music news blogger or someone who tends to reblog things. However, one of the people I'm following over at my Tumblr blog (now my personal blog) pointed me in the direction of this compelling look at the importance of Isaac Hayes to the history of soul music. Written by Andy Gill, it's an incredibly relevant and insightful look at why the successes of Isaac Hayes's inventions paved the way for the careers of many others whom we consider to be the greatest performers in soul music ...

07.21.08Bon Iver’s lonely hearts brigade stampedes Daytrotter SessionsIn a quite fair, though surprisingly swift and wide-reaching manner, much has been made of Justin Vernon's songwriting and of his band, Bon Iver. Their remarkable EP For Emma, Forever Ago, is an album so simple and subtle in its beauty that it could end up lost in the shuffle of your playlist. We are so fortunate that from this small voice has come one of 2008's most beloved recordings. If your heart was ever broken and you knew it, Justin's falsetto overtones and wrenchings of lost love spoke to you at a time when you needed ...

06.22.08Everything I want to say to Kanye West right now about whatever — He doesn’t even read my blog.So listen, Ye. First off, I would bet you don't read blogs and, most likely, you don't read mine. That's okay with me. I am just another fucking fan out there who lost his cool after being up all night. I was tired and cranky last week. I want to apologize for being a dick. I admit that my comments were pretty harsh on you about what went down at Bonnaroo. I sent my Idolator update on the morning after it happened, four or five hours sleep after the fact, so I was ...

07.18.07To All Skeet Skeet — In The Meantime, DJ Skeet Skeet Will Party Like A RockstarOk, trip this: the mash up is not effing dead, ok? See, I know nothing about DJ Skeet Skeet but he emailed me this tight mash-up this morning that I figured some of you would probably be ready to get down on. His Royal Skeetness reps the 310, is a real thug, plays electro, and (I'm just guessing) loves french fries dipped in tartar sauce as much as the next person. If you read this blog, you people know that I'm down for whatever usually. So you know I'll crank this track up when we ...

06.09.07SoundExchange To Charge $1Billion In “Administrative Fees”Story by Anne Broache @ CNET News We already know that Webcasters small and large are outraged at the prospect of having to pay higher royalty fees to the music industry, particularly when compared with what is required of their satellite and terrestrial radio counterparts. But the heightened royalty rates enacted by the U.S. Copyright Royalty Board earlier this year and scheduled to take effect July 15 are not the only thing that's firing up leading Internet radio industry companies like RealNetworks, Yahoo, Pandora and Live365. In letters distributed to various Capitol ...
