weekend roundup 4.13

CAN ANYONE PLEASE ANSWER THIS QUESTION. WHY ISN'T THERE EVER ANYTHING TO DO IN NYC ON THE WEEKENDS? THERE IS AN ABUNDANCE OF THINGS TO DO DURING THE WEEK, BUT I GUESS WEEKENDS ARE RESERVED FOR RELAXING AND CATCHING UP ON SOME WELL DESERVED ZZZ'S. I TOOK THIS TIME TO RELAX MYSELF AND ZONE OUT TO SOME GOOD TUNES.

I LIKE TO FIND ARTISTS NOBODY ELSE FUX WITH YET AND KIND OF CLAIM THEM AS MY OWN, AND RIGHT NOW MY OBSESSION IS THIS NEW MALIBU BORN AND BRED HIP HOP KID WHO RECENTLY SIGNED WITH [SURETONE/GEFFEN RECORDS], SHWAYZE. IF YOU CREATE A PLAY LIST, MIX SHWAYZE IN WITH A LITTLE N.E.R.D, GYMCLASS HEROES, AND SOME THROWBACK SUBLIME AND YOU'RE STRAIGHT. I HAVEN'T FOUND A TRACK OF HIS THAT I HATE, BUT I STILL HAVEN'T PICKED A FAVORITE JUST YET EITHER. SOMETHING ABOUT HIS SONGS BRING ME BACK TO MY DAYS GROWING UP IN ST. THOMAS KICKING IT AT THE BEACH ON A LAZY SUNDAY AFTERNOON WITH NOT A WORRY IN THE WORLD. IT COULD BE HIS CREATIVE MIX OF LAID BACK VOCALS, ACOUSTIC GUITAR, AND THE TUG OF WAR BETWEEN ROCK AND HIP HOP THAT FLOOD EVERY TRACK. WHATEVER IT IS, IT WORKS. CHECK THIS CLIP OF HIM LIVE AT THE ROXY, LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK......(IF YOU GUYS LIKE HIM AS MUCH AS I DO THEN I'LL TRY MY HARDEST TO GET HIM HERE TO THE CITY.)














AND WHILE I'M ON THE SUBJECT OF MUSIC, HAPPY 20TH ANNIVERSARY TO THE LEGENDARY TV SHOW YO! MTV RAPS. THIS SHOW HELPED CREATE A MOVEMENT THAT HAS MOLDED A WHOLE GENERATION. TAKE A JOURNEY THROUGH TIME, REMINISCE ON THE JAMS THAT ROCKED YOUR BODY, GET REACQUAINTED WITH THE SOUNDS OF THE GREAT POETS OF THEIR TIME, LOOK BACK ON THE STRUGGLES AND OPINIONS THAT MOVED THEM TO SPEAK THEIR MINDS, AND TRY NOT TO CRINGE AT THE WONDERFULLY HORRIBLE FASHION CHOICES OF THE LATE 80'S. CLICK ON THE LINK BELOW TO PAY HOMAGE TO YO! MTV RAPS....
