I finally checked out the Black Keys’ hip hop project BlackRoc and immediately fell for it.

Combine the forceful, stomping riffs of the Black Keys [...]
According to his Twitter, Curren$y linked up with Mos Def last night to make this quick little number, "Breakfast." Although it is poorly mixed, Mos still brought some smooth and jazzy production to the table. And Curren$y, who many know for his guest verses on several Lil' Wayne mixtapes, flows over the horns-laden beat with ease. Perhaps this is just a teaser of what's to come from Mos...

Between this and Dame Dash's BlakRoc project , I think we're seeing the future of music. But maybe that's just me.... Still not clear on what Keys N...

It’s hard to find reviews of Robert Glasper’s work that don’t mention his comfort in a variety of genres and his ability to meld various influences. It’s understandable, and almost necessary, because it quickly gets to one of the reasons why Glasper’s such a compelling artist. His newest album, Double-Booked brings that idea to the [...]
