URBANEARS HEADPHONE

Anthony Hull — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 20:54:01 +0000

My sista from another mista Jasmine Solano kindly dropped me a pair of new headphones from her Sponsor URBANEARS during the SIA and X-Games weekend. Having tried a lot of different headphones I gotta say I am loving these and now am a fan of URBANEARS. The sound is quality and important for me is that they have bass! They are I-phone compatible with a mic, but one cool feature that I’m really feeling is that the left headphone has a plug-in that allows someone else to plug in their headphones and listen to whatever you’re listening to. They come in a multitude of colors and the look is fresh and simple. Good looking at Jas!

Wake up sleepy giants… it’s time to gather up all the flammables and light Denver on fire this weekend. There are a handful of rad events over the next few days, and all are all relatively close to each other making it more than a possibility to blaze through them all. This Friday is none other than Fresh Friday…. Both Larimer and Broadway will be heating up with art shows and such. And… I highly encourage all to swing through Cervantes on Saturday… as I’ll be doing the electric boogaloo and a few Pelvic Thrust Uppercuts™ whilst enjoying some supple beats. If you know of any other beat happenings dropping on Denver this weekend please post up in the comments… let’s get social!

DIE ANTWOORD

Lifter Baron — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 18:29:23 +0000

I just came across Die Antwoord yesterday via Twitter — undoubtedly the best thing I’ve seen all week. Not only do this get me excited all over again for new music, but it makes me wonder what sort of other hidden gems are coming out of South Africa right now. These guys are dropping some serious sociopolitical rhymes laced with some atypical cuts and samples. Ninja’s rap style is anything but sleepy… if you take a peek at their live performance you’ll surely be just as impressed. Regardless if you are into this type of music, it’s within your best interest to swing by their site (which happens to be just as awesome as the rest of their videos and materials) a learn up on all that they are. Impressive and without a doubt original.

The Acceleration of Tranquility by Mark Helprin

Todd Berger — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 18:55:50 +0000

After an evening of deep philosophical and sociological discussion focused on such topics as personal responsibility, innovation, and family my dear friend Jill dropped The Acceleration of Tranquility on me. It’s a beautiful and wonderfully thought provoking piece of literature written by Mark Helprin for the December 1996 issue of Forbes Magazine. Have a read if you’re so inclined.

Donnis Interview

Anthony Hull — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 20:52:05 +0000

ATL-reppin’, MC Donnis spent a lot of 2009 climbing the hip-hop ranks with live performance videos, profuse freestyles, and attention-getting tracks that leaked much to our delight. Having a mixtape with 10 Deep ain’t a bad thing either, just ask Kid Cudi and Wale.

All this grindin’ brought Donnis a deal to release the single “Gone”, with a video under A-Tracks, Fool’s Gold label. I recently caught up with Donnis to talk music, plans for 2010, his fashion game, and how he is definitely no longer the underdog.
