The Art of FLIGHT

This makes us want to drink a whole case of Red Bull just to keep giving them money so that they can keep getting involved in projects like these! We look forward to seeing this insane film when it drops!

*New, Official Video* All Of The Lights (Directed by Hype Williams)


Expected more? Me too I guess. At least would have been nice for the all star cast from the record to be featured in the video. Oh well. Still kind of dope. And Rihanna is naked so that's cool.

Interestingly, the entire beginning different color words and lights thing was taken from this popular "Enter The Void" opening sequence. Also looks like Kanye will be performing the single with Rihanna during tomorrow's NBA All-Star Game.

New Banksy Work Spotted Over Sunset Boulevard, Hollywood

Banksy sighting! Reporting live from the ground, fans are tracking the artists' Hollywood takeover as his film comes up for an Oscar, during the ceremony February 27th. This is cool, huge over Sunset. Mickey's arm wrapping around Shorty's waist kills it.

Highsnobiety has close-ups along with previous new work spotted throughout LA.

Pusha T Talks "My God", Working With Kanye, To Complex Magazine

The man Insanul Ahmed over at Complex got Pusha on the phone out in LA for Grammy weekend. Things got hot for Kanye's new right-hand man in the last couple days with the emergence of his first official single from his new mixtape, My God. I never got to put the mastered version up so get it below.

“The album is a whole other monster. That’s something that me and Ye have been working on. I’d like to say we’ve got a good five records. I don’t know how many we’re going to go for in total, but we’ve got five down, and we definitely have some more to go. We’re just going to create until we feel the project is a well-rounded one. This is my dream. [Kanye will be executive producing] and it has a lot to do with his creative vision, and what he sees for me, and it’s been coming out amazing. I’m personally hoping for a late summer release. That’s my goal.”

KiD CuDi – Ghost! (Unofficial Video)



“Every line means something” -Basquiat

Ghost! was inspired by Basquiat’s first feature film “Downtown 81″. While watching, I realized that CuDi looked alot like Basquiat. I Thought it would be cool to see him play the role of KiD CuDi while his music told the story of Basquiat.

I’ve always thought My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy would make a great musical. Beautiful.

Will Divide Live For Best Buy


Will showcases a little something called turntablism, in an exclusive demonstration on the Numark NS7. Some of you DJ's born after 2009 wouldn't know a thing about it. Nice piece of equipment, this is what I had in mind of mixing beats within the song pretty brilliant better than I had imagined. Good shit.

Drinkable Marijuana?



There are drinks infused with 2 1/2 grams of cannabis already at medical marijuana centers, but the drink could be hitting stores shelves in the California area soon. It is currently $10 bucks for 12 ounces of the stuff.

Thoughts?

MUST SEE: THE HISTORY OF HIP HOP 4 MINUTE BEATBOX


Wow, this dude is incredible. His name is Eklips, he’s a French hip hop MC who specializes in beat-boxing or vocal percussion. He is one of the three member of a French band called Le Remède. He is known for his use of a loop pedal manipulated by hand for creating beats which allows him to overlap effects upon his beats. All your true hip hop fans, can you name each song?

Breezy Art...Style

Breezy Art...Style from Mechanical Dummy on Vimeo.

Chris made an observation that I learned in a "logic" class in college. VALUE is PLACED on things, the value isn't inherent. This was very insightful & I hope a lot of young people GET this concept. Very Inspirational. Like CB said "you wear the clothes, don't make the clothes wear you".

10.Deep x PRO-Keds Veteran Pack Sneakers


Not my kind of sneaker. Both a camo and indigo denim version of the Royal Plus you can check out more in detail here. Just a great Spring kick to wear with good shorts and crisp tees. Love the bright blue Pro-Keds logo in the back as a sort of off-set from the camo. These guys know what they're doing.

Roman's Revenge (Remix) - Nicki Minaj feat. Lil Wayne

Weezy riling people up a little bit with the new verse. Supposedly it's a response to the "Baby money" line Hov said on H*A*M*. Wish I cared. Not the greatest Wayne verse in my opinion.

What's in that lunch box?

As you may know, this art piece was done by BANKSY.


I really like his art work it's a mystery and has a secret message or story behind the painting. In my opinion he is one the more exciting graffiti artist. This particular piece, caught my attention because, the majority of citizens either work or attend to school each week and the common saying is "I Hate Mondays" but what we don't think about is that others around the world have worst Mondays than U.S. Citizens. The point I am trying to get across is be thankful.

Feel free to elaborate on this topic, I am open minded. Also Correct me if I am wrong.

Video: Big Sean Brings Out Chris Brown, Wiz Khalifa & Tyga @ The El Ray In L.A.



This is probably one of my favorite videos from last night. The Detroit MC did say that it’s his favorite song to perform and he looked like he had a lot of fun doing it! Everyone joined him on stage for this one from Kendrick Lamar, Wiz Khalifa, Chris Brown, Teyana Taylor and more!

Kanye West - 1.11.11 


Check out this artwork tweeted by Kanye West for H.A.M releasing on 1.11.11 from the upcoming Watch The Throne project with Jay-Z. This feels BIG! A little busy if you ask me. Maybe even a lot busy. Doesn't change the fact we're all anxiously awaiting the new music. Kanye confirms rumors about the date and gets the creative director at Givenchy, Riccardo Tisci to do the artwork. I'm sure we'll see this leak sometime this weekend.

Watch: Chris Brown’s Webisode #4: ‘Breezy Art… Dance’…

The fourth episode of Chris Brown’s Mechanical Dummy series is entitled ‘Breezy Art… Dance’. The footage sees the illustrative 21-year-old expressing the ways in which he uses his complex footwork and charming stage charisma to get us females hot under the collar!
The art of dance has been a very large pivotal process in the singer’s career, as well as being a massive part of all of his performances. Breezy’s idol Michael Jackson always focused on dance to put on explosive stage performances, not just on stage but in his music videos too. Because he was so brilliant and spine-chilling at what he did, this is what earned him his status as one of the greatest entertainers to have EVER lived.
As with Breezy, he has definitely learned from the best, permitting him to become one of the greatest dancers of his generation. Breezy also defends dance being seen as not a very masculine trait. He states that enjoying the art of dance does not make you less of a man at all. I couldn’t agree more!!!! I think it’s a very sexy trait when a man knows how to dance because it always means he knows how to work it in the bedroom department. Watch the footage below.

Video: Behind The Scenes Footage Of Kanye West’s “All Of The Lights” Visual



HollywoodTv got some under the radar/exclusive footage from Ye’s “All Of The Lights” video which was filmed in Santa Monica, C.A. (another lil birdie informed me he was on the set not to long ago). Can’t tell much from the 1:20 clip above, but whenever you see Ye throw invisible rocks at the ground during a video it sure to be a good one.
