Video: Jay-Z “Empire State of Mind” feat. Alicia Keys

Friday October 30, 2009 by: Sean

Here's the video we've all been waiting to see for the last few weeks now, "Empire State of Mind" by Jay-Z featuring Alicia Keys. This is New York's official anthem (in my mind at least), and the two artists performed itlast night before Game 2 of the World Series at Yankee Stadium. It's actually the official song of the 2009 World Series, which is a huge step for hip-hop. The video is directed by none ...

Video: Black Thought & Black Dante “75 Bars”

Friday October 30, 2009 by: Brian

Now this is something I cant get enough of... one rapper showing love for another rapper's lyrics.  This is a video of Mos Def reciting Black Thought's verse from "75 Bars"  on the "Rising Down" album.  This week Eminem gave Joe Budden a call to commend him on his BET Cypher verse and Mos has shown love to other masked rappers in the past. Maybe if more rappers used positive reinforcement with artists like Plies ...

Video: Jay-Z and Alicia Keys “Empire State of Mind” Live at Yankees Stadium

Didn't get to see this on TV, but this is a huge moment for Hip Hop. I can't name a Hip Hop artist that has had the opportunity to perform during the World Series, especially in the last few years. In my opinion, this doesn't beat their performance at Madison Square Garden but Jeter's face at 2:30 is amazing.  Enjoy.

Air Max LeBron VII “Phantom” Black

Air Max LeBron VII “Phantom” Black

Friday October 30, 2009 by: Sean

"All black everything" is the theme on this latest colorway of the Air Max LeBron VII to hit the net. This pair has been dubbed the "Phantoms" in reference to the all black Rolls Royce Phantom that LeBron pushes, but I'll stick to calling them the all black LeBrons because truthfully all of these nicknames for shoes is really getting on my nerves. Anyway, these feature the same 360 Max Air Unit, Flywire and leather ...

Trailer: Ninja Assassin

Trailer: Ninja Assassin

Thursday October 29, 2009 by: Dara

By the looks of the trailer, I think this movie is going to be freakin' cool. Starring Korean sensation Rain, Ninja Assassin tells the story of an orphan-turned-trained killer who escapes from his ninja clan only to return to exact revenge. While you can't expect any Oscar nominations, the actions scenes are pure eye-candy and will be full-fledged entertainment. Ninja Assassin releases in theaters on November 25, 2009. Just add this movie to your Thanksgiving ...

Audio: Alicia Keys “Try Sleeping With a Broken Heart”

Thursday October 29, 2009 by: Sean

Here is latest track to leak from Alicia Keys's upcoming album The Element of Freedom. Alicia announced earlier this week that the album has been pushed back two weeks, from December 1st to December 15th. If the delay results in more tracks of this quality, then Ms. Keys can take her own sweet time. I'm feeling this single a lot more than her first single, "Doesn't Mean Anything." Check out her latest song, "Try Sleeping ...

Here's a video of KiD CuDi, aka Mr. Solo Dolo, performing his song "Day N Nite" at MTV's Ulalume Music Festival last week in Columbia, Md. The performance is a mash-up between the CD version of the track and the remix that often gets radio play. CuDi is gearing up to join Lady Gaga on the Monster Ball Tour this winter, and judging by these t-shirts that popped up on Karmaloop last week, he is ...

Judging by these preview pictures, we're going to getting a slew of classic, and not so classic make ups of Air Max runners including Air Max 1s, Air Max 90s and Air Maxims.
