HALO 4.

2011-06-06T13:19:00.000-07:00

Today kicks off the start of the 2011 Electronic Entertainment Expo, otherwise known to geeks worldwide as "E3." Microsoft had their annual press conference this morning at 9:30AM PST. Microsoft showed off more Kinect integration to their format and games, more media outlets on the XBOX Live subscription, and showed off demos of a few of the biggest cross-platform games like Mass Effect 3 and Batman: Arkham City. However, the biggest news is that there is a possible new Halo trilogy with the release of the Halo 4 teaser trailer at the end of the conference.

The trailer shows where Halo 3 left off with overall badass Master Chief and cyber hottie Cortana escaping their ship and facing a bigger one, possibly being the Covenant mothership. Since Halo 3, there have been games that explored the Halo universe such as a RTS game like Halo Wars, and spin-off shooters like Halo: ODST and Halo: REACH. Halo 4 won't be handled by popular developers Bungie but will be under Microsoft's 343 Studio.

And if you didn't know already, Halo is one of the biggest first-person shooters not named Call of Duty. Unapproved by girlfriends, bonding time with the bros. Halo 4 is slated for a 2012 holiday release.

Lucky for us males, the imminent release of Modern Warfare 3 and Uncharted 3 in November is enough to keep us satiated for quite some time.

Former Interscope Records rapper and employee Jensen Karp stumbled upon some CD's in his garage, given to him in 2001 while serving his time on the label. The CD labels had Kanye West on them and is believed to be the first set of beats created by Mr. West. According to Karp, "I think this collection of early Kanye beats shows you where he came from, even if it doesn’t necessarily sound like ‘Kanye’ now. He kept at it and became the incredible producer he is today. I remember he even had to leave the studio sessions early, so he could make the last train back to his mom’s house. He’s come a long way, and I’m proud to have been around, even if for just a second at the start."

The zany artwork of Major Lazer (Diplo and Switch collab) has found it's way to television as part of Cartoon Network's extremely popular Adult Swim programming. The direction of the show, featuring it's cyborg armed protagonist, is anyone's guess. It could probably fall under the shadow and gain success just like another popular Adult Swim series, "Metalocalypse," which follows the virtual and real life band Deathlok.

Major Lazer consists of popular producers Diplo and Switch, who collaborated after working with eccentric artist M.I.A. Their music can be likened to Caribbean dance hall with electro and hip-hop influences. Adult Swim is a sub-network under Cartoon Network featuring animation revolving around adult oriented content. Programs consist of syndicated favorites like Family Guy, Futurama, and King of the Hill; Original shows like Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Robot Chicken; And popular Japanese anime.

New Music: Musiq Soulchild - "Yes"

2011-04-06T12:12:00.000-07:00

This is his latest track off "MusiqInTheMagiq" which drops on May 3rd. To be honest, I haven't heard from Musiq Soulchild in a while. That means we've been deprived of good R&B music. Because we all know that Taio Cruz/Iyaz/Jay Sean stuff doesn't even come close.

With Musiq Soulchild, who says "Chivalry is dead?"
