It is a sad day in Los Angeles radio — naye, LA music — as Indie 103 shuttered its broadcast airwaves. It’s truly a bummer, and I guess we all should’ve seen it coming, as LA has it had far too good for far too long (as compared to the rest of the country). What […]

We’ve been watching Squeak E. Clean DJ here in LA for about ever, but his teaming up with DJ Zegon as N.A.S.A. (North America South America) has been a quantum leap in their careers. We posted before about the building hype for their upcoming album, The Spirit of Apollo (out on Anti- on February 16), […]

I’m not sure what I’m having a harder time contemplating — that this movie actually exists, or that it has never been created before. Genius, on some super-twisted-mental-fucked-up sense. All I know is I will be all over Big Man Japan (Dai Nipponjin in Japan) when it plays in LA and New York this March […]

In the I-Can’t-Believe-This-Is-A-Real-Headline section, our boy Asher Roth was apparently one of the people involved in taking down a self-professed would-be bomber at LAX today. According to his PR: Rapper Asher Roth and his band were the ones who tackled the bomb scare person at LAX a few hours ago on their plane!  Asher and […]

The new Eminem, Dr Dre & 50 Cent track “Crack a Bottle” is out and…uh…eh. All 3 of these guys have had their days in the sun, owned their empires, and like the Brits have seen these rap empires crumble. Sure, they’re all still richer than Dick Cheney in a Costa Rican whorehouse, but honestly […]

Lamborghini has officially finally jumped the shark with its EDO LP 710 Christian Audigier edition. It would be impossible for Lambo to align itself with a tackier, cornier designer/brand, even if it went straight for the KMART Jaclyn Smith edition. My lord, what in blazes are you fools thinking??? Are you trying to poop on […]
