DJ Whiteowl Drop That 132 (mixtape)

Nothing against Young Jeezy, but a mixtape with a title about cocaine doesn't quite satisfy my new music fix, so if you're looking for some of the latest rap and hip-hop singles, you should take a listen to DJ Whiteowl's Drop That 132. For those that don't know, DJ Whiteowl is back with the 132nd installment of the Drop That Mixtape series, a series that brings the heat and sheds some light on some up-and-comers in the game. Give it a listen.

Young Jeezy - 1,000 Grams (mixtape)

It's New Music Tuesday and today I'd like to share a new mixtape from Young Jeezy entitled 1,000 Grams. The title is an obvious reference to a kilogram - and cocaine, though I'm sure Jeezy hasn't touched the stuff in years. Side note: Why do a lot of rappers feel the need to brag about the drugs they've sold? Do they think we believe them and think they're tough? Either way, look out for TM 103, dropping on September 28th.

The Run Around - Exile of Emo

The Run Around is a new punk band from Chicago. The band has (apparently) taken the Midwest by storm performing on huge stages at The Local Music Revolution 2010 at the Congress Theater in Chicago, Punkfest, and were one of the openers for Tom Petty at Summerfest in Milwaukee. Since I live in California, and have never actually seen them live, I cannot verify these claims. I can only bring you their debut video Exile of Emo In the hopes that it will catch on and force legislation to put an end to nut-hugging skinny jeans.

Sam Kinison: Breaking All The Rules

Sam Kinison was and still is one of the funniest comedians ever. Originally he followed in his father's footsteps as a Pentecostal preacher before becoming a comedian and his style, both as a preacher and as a comedian, was punctuated by loud abrasive screaming. He was loud, in-your-face, and hilarious and his booming career was on it's upswing when he was tragically stuck in his 1989 Trans Am by a 17 year old in a pickup truck who had been drinking. I highly suggest you check out some of his stand-up CDs, DVDs and television show appearances. Here's one notable stint on Saturday Night Live where he plays a teacher conducting a Parent/Teacher interview as well as the full Breaking All The Rules 1987 stand-up special.

Bass Thumpin' Thursdays

Hey Hey Kids. Welcome to another edition of Bass Thumpin' Thursdays. I'm Veroncia Corningstone, Tits McGee is on Vacation. Today, Let's kick things off with a song by Marcel Woods titled Everything accompanied by an original video by Sensation White. Videos like this are the reason we created Bass Thumpin' Thursdays, so we can show exhibit them to the world.

Marcel Woods - Everything



Next up is the music video for Eminem's Love the Way You Lie featuring Rihanna. Shit. This video was posted literally one week ago on YouTube and has garnered over 30 million views. 30 million WTF?! Anyway, this may have something to do with Eminem being one of the biggest and best selling recording artists of the last decade or maybe the collaboration with Rihanna, whom people seem to be infatuated with. My bet is the decision to feature Megan Fox and Dominic Monaghan as an abusive couple probably nabbed a few million views from horny teenagers googling Megan Fox in hopes of finding some topless pics.

Thirdly, is Instamatic with a Kleptones Mad Groove (Instamatic video mashup). The 6th video from The Videotones is about television - an intentional theme running through nearing all the videos but here Instamatic takes The Kleptones 'Mad Groove' and merrily skips through 24 films, TV shows and music videos channel surfing as he goes, causing upset and destruction in his wake. Remember: don't watch the blipverts, or your eyes will go square. See if you can spot all the references.

Sources used include: Poltergeist, Requiem for a Dream, Steal This Film II, Stay Tuned, Network, Pleasantville, Truman Show, Filth and the Fury, Medium Cool, Max Headroom, Videodrome, They Live, Evidence by Godfrey Reggio, Daft Punk - Robot Rock, YMO - Live, Great Rock n' Roll Swindle, Zabriskie Point, Ringu, Times Square, Last Emperor, Koyaaniqatsi, Kraftwerk - Tour de France, Double 99 - Rip Groove video...

Last up is the music video for Ice Cube's new single, I Rep That West. Ice Cube has been in the rap game for over two fucking decades and though kids today may know him better for his acting roles than his lyrical talent they need to check themselves. Ice has brought us classic after classic so without further dick-riding, I bring you the new video for the new single, I Rep That West. Stay classy San Diego.

And while we're on the subject, why can't we all be so lucky to have a drug dealing girl like this? In my experience drug dealers are usually acne-ridden, shaggy college students, not top-quality pieces of ass.
