YG feat. Will Claye - IDGAF

Idk what it is about it but this track that just speaks to me. Perhaps it's the simplistic approach to an even simpler concept, and although it's not too lyrical at all, the overall package hits it out of the park for me. This is straight up hood/trap/stripper music and I fucks with that all day. ~alx.O

MACKLEMORE & RYAN LEWIS - CAN'T HOLD US FEAT. RAY DALTON (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)

Although I am JUST catching wind of Macklemore & Ryan Lewis (shame on me for that), I really enjoyed the song "Thrift Shop" but I think this one here is the track that has made me a fan. Refreshingly creative the video was dope, the production was dope, and goddammit this guy has some pretty dope bars. Hate it or love it, I think Macklemore & Ryan Lewis are here to stay. ~alx.O

Choreography::: Vinh Nguyen | "Fine China" by @chrisbrown

Although it's not a real secret to me, but most people don't know that when I was younger before I started making music, I wanted to be a dancer. A short lived desire when I finally built up the courage to do it when I was 22, and subsequently found out that I wasn't really any good at it..lol But hey you live and you learn and from it I still carry this great appreciation for dance and dancers alike. This one here is very dope, perhaps one the better one's that I've seen for this song. Enjoy!! ~alx.O

It's Highway Robbery: Kid Rock On Jay-Z & Justin Timberlake High Ticket Prices! "It's Garbage"

As a fan of live entertainment, I think Kid Rock has a great idea here. And I think it would be a great thing for live music overall if other artist follow his lead too. It's a win win in my eye's. ~alx.O

Prodigy Gives Details On 2Pac Faking His Beef With Notorious B.I.G To Sell Records (30mins)

Very insightful. He makes some pretty heavy accusations about 2Pac, Jay Z, Naz, Erv Gotti, and Ja Rule in this autobiography. Makes you really wonder about this music game, and if our heros are heros because of fate or the result of strategically planned marketing campaigns. I'll let you be the judge, let me know what you thing. ~alx.O

Attraction perform their stunning shadow act - Week 1 - Auditions | Britain's Got Talent 2013

Although not directly about music, It is very creative and wonderfully artistic and I'd feel incredible remiss on my part if I didn't post this. These folks proved that great storytelling doesn't always need words and that sometimes so much can be said without even saying a thing. Piercingly heart felt and surprisingly inventive, I thought this was nothing short of spectacular. ~alx.O
