King Fantastic just dropped the latest visuals off their Finger Snaps and Gun Claps album, which is available for free on their website. If you know King Fantastic, you know that their videos are something else and this is no exception. This latest one is damn near the best video of all time. OF ALL TIME.

“Hurt” is the lastest cover off Jared Evan’s upcoming unCOVERED mixtape. The video for it is the first episode of the unCOVERED web series. I am digging his rendition of the track. The music video is pretty dark to say the least.
unCOVERED is a musical web series created by Jared Evan and executive produced by Rik Cordero. It follows visual interpretations of classic cover songs, written and produced entirely by Jared Evan.

Video of the year? The greatest song ever made about super soakers? Probably both. Although this track is not currently available in the United States, the video is well worth watching. Bombs Away sure knows how to throw a pool party.

Okay, where’s the cliff notes for this damn video? Oh, here they are. Joking aside, there is some good stuff in this video if you are patient enough to watch all thirty minutes.

Mayer Hawthorne, international man of mystery, just dropped this epic new music video for “The Walk” off of his recently released album How Do You Do. During your next break up, I highly suggest using this video to show your ex-loved one just how they make you feel.
Stay tuned for more on Mayer, we’ll be at his show with Chromeo tomorrow night here in lovely Boulder, Colorado. Snag your last minute tickets here, you procrastinator. As well, check out our preview on the two here if you’ve been in a cave for the last year.

It’s been ages since I’ve listened to Common, but in all truth, he’s the man for numerous reasons, including enduring all the outrage (bullshit more accurately) he received after getting an invite to the White House from Michelle Obama.
This track is the second single off of Common’s upcoming album The Dreamer, The Believer, and it’s produced by No I.D.; the album’s first single was “Ghetto Dreams” featuring Nas.
The Dreamer, The Believer is scheduled for a November 22nd release, let’s hope it doesn’t get delayed again.

One of my favorites off Smokey Robotic’s The Shark & The Helicopter LP gets animated. Watch and if you have yet to pick up the album, get it here.

It’s people like Adele who remind me that no one is perfect. I mean obviously she’s not everyone’s type, but if you managed to fall in love with her? How could you ever do wrong to anything with that much beauty? I guess we’re all fallible though, right?
It’s a been awhile since we last featured Dru B Shinin’ and there really is no good reason why we haven’t. The guy puts out damn good music and deserves more exposure. He recently released another free album titled The CleanUp that is slightly more crossover and tangible than his previous releases. You can really see the progression of his artistry on this album.
One of my favorites off the album is “Her Song”, which he made a really great music video for. The song is something I think all will enjoy. It is not just “her song.” Oh, and my favorite quote from it is..
“She don’t care about no multiple syllable rhymes. She don’t know what they are man.” – Dru B Shinin’

Another feel good jam off the album..

And the album in its entirety. Trust me, don’t sleep on this.
