"The scramble has been vicious..."

As one of my favorite musicians would say (turbotdouble.com)

I can't promise I will be updating much in this coming month, but I will certainly do so if I find some cool stuff, let alone have the time. I have been overwhelmed with schoolwork, work, and trying to get the ball rolling on my music. I know it'll kill the few that visit this blog, but there might not even be a Cutest Puppy of the Week for a few weeks (sorry)!

I gotta focus...give me your well wishes and I wish to all of you out there the best of luck as well in accomplishing whatever goal you seek to overcome in these next months! Let's get it!

Just some things off the top of my head though:

-go get Madlib's "Beat Konducta in Africa". I already know it's gonna be good.
-Erykah Badu's new CD "New Emerykah Pt. II" comes out next Tuesday. That should be good too.
-Mochilla's Timeless DVD collection should be at my doorsteps within the next week. Can't wait!
-got to hang out with Dani. It was great to see her and I look forward to seeing her next month!
-I have a show coming up next Thursday at the Reef Boise. I guess I better make a separate post about that huh?
-I'm still sad Nujabes has passed.
-musically, the Dedicated Servers have a lot of stuff that should be coming out very soon.
-I've been hearing so much good new music but haven't had the time to share them with you. Hopefully I can fix that shortly.
-thank you to those that have been visiting the site lol
-ordered my TSST tee via turbotdouble.com Get yourself one too and most importantly introduce yourself to Turbo's incredible music!

Talk to you all soon!

R.I.P. Nujabes

...wow.

This is a HUGE loss for hip hop and music in general. This is really sad news for me, since Nujabes is one of my biggest influences. His music is amazing, timeless, and will forever be classic. He's the reason why I kept watching Samurai Champloo.

I always thought of him as the Japanese Pete Rock. Whenever I think of his music, I always think of the smooth and jazzy piano that he always threw into his beats. What's so upsetting about the passing of Nujabes is how horribly underrated his music is. People always ask where real hip hop is and sometimes I tell them it's in Japan! It's crazy because a lot of his songs are fairly old and are still better than the garbage that's circulating around the airwaves here.

Nujabes wasn't just a master of hip hop. He was a musical genius. Yeah he could make some good hip hop songs, but he made so much other amazing songs. I'm envious of the few that got to work with him.

He passed away near the end of February, but his family wanted to keep this information very private, which is why we here in the states are just now finding out. I'll probably be posting a lot of Nujabes music in the coming year (yep, because that's how much music he had). Luckily, there are a handful of unreleased songs he made that Hydeout Productions is planning on releasing sometime.

R.I.P. to another fallen legend. Man...the music lives though.

Untitled(LovedU)2

Another great Blu song from last year! Weird how all these videos are just now surfacing!

Blu-Untitled(LovedU)2 x GodArt from www.loveonthebeat.net on Vimeo.

Amnesia

Here's another song released last year but the video is brand new. Blu is super fresh, anyone know when his debut CD comes out? Or if it ever will?!

Deep

Here's the music video for a song released last year from Elzhi. There is simply none better!

Tron Legacy

Here's a new trailer for what will probably be an awesome summer blockbuster! Can't wait for this especially since it's been confirmed that it will be in IMAX & 3D! YES!

Window Seat (Live)

This song is so so good. I can't wait for this CD; "New Amerykah Part 2: The Ankh" comes out March 30! Make sure you cop! Listen to this then listen to the studio version, they're both very good!

I Wish It Would Rain

One of my favorite songs from the album. If you still don't have "A Strange Arrangement", get it! Cool video!

Cutest Puppy of the Week! (03.01.10-03.07.10)

omg how adorable!!! It's like a little snowball!


Gummi Bears Chandelier

This is so cool! I don't know if I should have it at my place though, I'd probably end up eating it!

Wall of Sound

Daaaaaaaaaaaang!

Now this would literally blast your socks off! It's $4,495 and weighs about 225 pounds! Would be great for parties though I suppose!

Peugeot Concept

These are really cool! It's a personal mobility car concept by Yuji Fujimura. Though it kinda reminds me of the obese people in the movie Wall-E...hopefully that's not the direction we humans are headed but this would still be pretty cool to have!






Stylo

Pretty cool video, looking forward to buying this next Tuesday!
