Crazy new video from M.I.A. for her KILLER new track called “Born Free”. Shot here in Los Angeles and directed by Romain Gavras (who sparked controversy with his violent clip for Justice’s “Stress” in 2008).

“Today, I have very somber news for the international hip hop community, especially fans of the independent hip hop scene, and those who have followed my career.
It has been announced that Jun Seba, aka Nujabes, Japanese hip hop producer extraordinaire, passed away late February. Official statement from the label (in Japanese) here:
http://hydeout.net/hydeout/2010/03/_hydeoutproductions.html“
If you’ve never heard of Nujabes, then you have been seriously deprived of quality music. His soulful and jazzy blends of hip hop beats, breaks and percussion are compared to legendary producing greats like DJ Krush and DJ Shadow.
If you are an Anime fan like myself, then you may be aware that Shinichirō Watanabe chose Nujabes to contribute to the background music and soundtracks of Samurai Champloo.
One of my favorite Nujabes tracks –
R.I.P Nujabes. May your Beats Lament the World.

Today we remember the life of James Dewitt Yancey aka J Dilla, one of the music industry’s most influential hip-hop artists. Today is J DIlla Day. In his honor here are a few of my favorite tracks. I can think of countless moments that J Dilla beats have reached me on a “higher” level.
RIP J DILLA

Ran into Chris, a good support of the The Wild Ones, at the Nike DJ AM & DJ PREMIER PACK launch party on Saturday. He was sporting this mean 3-finger ring he made himself! SICK!
