The music video. An art form if actually put together properly. Back in the day, when MTV and other “music video channels” actually played music videos for music fans this platform was what helped connect it all together. It also introduced new sounds to a new audience. And as was expressed in KEEPING CAMERA ROLLING [...]

The crazy little episode that took place at the 2009 MTV Movie Awards on Sunday night happens to be the only highlight I caught from the show. (Who watches this crap anyway?) You should see it too. In this clip, rapper Eminem and the ass of actor Sacha Baron Cohen meet in front of a [...]

The music video. Who remembers when this art form actually meant something? That was back when MTV and other “music video channels” actually played music videos for music fans. The platform was once used as a way to introduce new sounds to a new audience. And it worked from where we sat. At least for [...]

You don’t see the kind of unity today in hip-hop that there was back in the day, when moments such as this one on the Arsenio Hall Show could be expected and appreciated by fans. There are appearances by KRS-One, Guru, Wu-Tang, Naughty by Nature, Das EFX and Tribe Called Quest, among others.

– Imagine a world where blacks and whites can “all just get along” under the same roof…
How funny was that? The people that created the video did so as part of a web series called ”Custom-built, Micro-Budget Commercials for MicroBilt Customers”. And it appears that the people in the video are the people you’ll find moving [...]

We’ve got videos. Some are timely, others just interesting…
As of late, stories of pirates highjacking boats seem to be the rage nowadays. (And Johnny Depp is not even part of the production this time around). But aside from that, did you realize earlier this month that April 5, 2009 marked 15 years since Nirvana frontman [...]

It seems like an eternity ago, when the majority of citizens in this country gave an outward sigh of “damn, here we go again” upon receiving the results of the past two presidential elections.
