what do you want, a cookie? slang that targets mostly women in violent ways doesn't offend you. bully for you, dude.

I won't reiterate this again, after this post. But I did just suggest it, and I'll restate: that's an argument that works equally well against giving any money to the big record labels, because they do that all the time (not pay people for their work) and buying stuff off them perpetuates that...

Hiya not sure if I can help a ton, being a social science gal and an American but it depends what you want help with. In the US, if you are not at the very tippy-top where the degree and the connections you make while getting it ease your way all over the place, then other criteria are worth...

since I only lived there for a while, I wouldn't say I was a New Yorker at all. (I do miss new york a ton, maybe I'll get specific later. Brunch at Enid's in greenpoint or buying dancehall 7"s at Fat Beats from the japanese lady are high on the list) that said. Bagels. New York. that's it. they...

To know if that would work, you would have to know the contents of an artist's deal with their label. If the money is going directly to the artists, or there appears to be a good deal, as per Calabash, or they are on an indie I know something about, fair enough. But many artists make nothing...

I was thinking of mentioning them. But while their beats are amazing, many of their lyrics are unbelievably awful. At least in translation (I do also like their flow, they make the words sound good, but the meaning... ugh.....)

I love the Puppet Mastaz Ghislain Poirier's beats are pretty sick Les Trolls Moabit (MoBeat?), German crew, had some good tunes, at least they did a while ago, dunno what they are up to now.

AFGHAN KITCHEN near Angel. affordable (if not cheap by london standards). crowded (don't go with more than one friend, really). awesome. the curried pumpkin is brilliant, as is the bread. also Maison Bertaux in soho, for pastries. I like it better than Valere.

Bjorklidden, in Sweden, above the arctic circle. I went there with my parents in 2003 in June and watched the sun slide around the horizon by a glacial waterfall. Being a city kid, well a suburban one, but without much relationship to nature, this was the first time I just sat and watched a...

what is this, "The Highlander" ?

Paul's Boutique is an important album to hip-hop's development musically. The production is nuts, they way they used sampling and suchlike was revolutionary. Clearly people respond to their idea of the Beastie Boy fans as much as they do the music itself. Kinda like a lot of people feel about...

hey thanks.. but forgive my ignorance - what's an .ace file? how do I make it play in itunes?

wow that sounds nice. Usually MCs go out because they enjoy the sound of their own voices, and the dj might as well be a clicktrack or a jukebox.

I like the beats. they are kind of Seeed like, or Puppet Mastaz-like.

it does happen - and it is good marketing. but also some people have day jobs and try to keep their lives separate. I gave up on that myself, but I can understand the reasoning.

yeah, Vapour!! anyone hear is simpsons chat? I heard it replayed on tape a few times, and then it showed up in mp3 form. I remember riding the bus in London listening to this stuff and wondering why I couldn't find parties that sounded like that. I remember really liking all the shout-outs...

also, can't discount Panama in the formation of reggaeton for the best breakdown of its parts and some histore - Wayneandwax has been on this for a minute - check out his discussion (includes fruityloops shots!) http://wayneandwax.blogspot.com/2005/08/we-use-so-many-snares.html

nice to see something from Stush again! did I hear Red Rat? Pretty sure i did. yeah I like the tune. Not into the synthy part, but you can't have everything.

we get this Irish butter that's pretty good. But the Breton butter with salt is incredible (and expensive) man, now I'm all hungry for super-buttery food - like pumpkin with sage and browned butter sauce or really good toast...

man I don't even care that residente calle 13 looks like Marky Mark. he's fricking great. his tune with Daddy Yankee: Machucando <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value=""></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src=""...
