Kid Cudi: 1st Time @ BET Awards (EPK)

Above is a very in-depth, professional EPK (electronic press kit) journey of Kid Cudi’s experience at his first ever awards show - last week’s BET Awards. Throughout the 10 minute video, follow Kid Cudi through his day at rehearsal, performing at the pre-show, highlights of the actual show and of course interactions with the fans and insight into Kid Cudi himself. On top of the actual insight into the day at hand, the video doubles as an EPK for the new artist with details of how he got here 2day being told. I’d definitely recommend this video for those who are still unfamiliar with the Man on the Moon.

Down below is a nice DJ Premier twist on the Seven x Talib Kweli collabo and the full Forever King mixtape from 50 Cent. You can also watch videos of Jeremih & Fabolous performing as well as the latter’s latest video premiere for “A Toast To The Good Life”. And of course, GWHH wishes our American readers a safe and happy Independence Day! Enjoy!

Kind of a slow day in audio so here’s the day in videos, starting off w/ the dope premiere of Reflection Eternal’s “Back Again”. Man, is this an addicting track?! The video itself utilizes some split screen and has some neat effects throughout. Other videos below include a preview of the Melanie Fiona & ?uestlove mixtape that should be dropping this Friday (yes, I’m excited), a Charles Hamilton interview, and video premieres from Gucci Mane & Akon. Enjoy!

Mary J. Blige “Beautiful (Black Star RMX)” f/ Mos Def & Talib Kweli

FULL, CDQ, Track from 1999? *Tibs Fav.™

With The Ecstatic in stores now, I was in a mood for some old Mos Def for Old School Sundays and stumbled upon the Black Star RMX of MJB’s “Beautiful”. Not sure how old and just what project it was on (if any), but it’s a DOPE RMX w/ Mos Def outshining Kweli in my opinion. Peep the powerful way Mos Def starts the song after the first of many addicting MJB choruses. Enjoy!


“You’re so beautiful…I dreamt that I could paint you with words, but there were no colors bright enough/black or white enough/blue or green enough/it didn’t mean enough…”

post Mickey Factz “Do My Do” f/ Kid Cudi - MORE

Mickey Factz “Do My Do” f/ Kid Cudi

Producer: Precize - FULL, CDQ HQ? *TIBS FAV.™

Mickey Factz dropped this bombshell on his blog 2day - the much-anticipated collaboration with fellow freshman Kid Cudi called “Do My Do”. I’ve been not so patiently waiting for this one since Factz played a snippet of the jam in Chicago a couple weeks ago and the song lives up 2 my personal hype. The electronica sound is somethin’ fresh for Factz and Cudi and both shine above the hot production. Here’s a sampling of a chorus that actually has some depth behind its catchiness - a rarity nowadays.

“And while  you ridin’ around and the radio keep playin’ all that weak s***/but we that heat s***/but I can’t complain cus it’s what the world might need from you/you n!@@as can’t do my do”

Factz tears up the first 2 verses with Cudi rhyming as fast as ever on the 3rd. “Do My Do” is such a complete track for me that it’ll be blarin’ in my speakers for weeks 2 come - so much so that it earns ALL CAPS *TIBS FAV.™ status. But don’t stop there, there’s some more trax 2 be had below starting off with a sick record that you should expect when seeing the trio of Mos Def, Talib Kweli, & J. Dilla (R.I.P.) linking 2gether. More solid jams feature Malik Yusef & KRS-One, The Cool Kids’ Chuck Inglish remixing Drake’s “Replacement Girl” and Jay Rock with his ode 2 the Los Angeles Lakers. Enjoy!

UPDATE: After playing “Do My Do” in better speakers and headphones, I have this feeling it still has to be re-mastered or somethin’. Not comin’ thru as powerful as expected.. anyone agree?

Derrick Rose: The Inner Workings of a Creator

Narrated By: Chali 2na (Of Jurassic 5)

Fresh off Rookie of the Year honors, Chicago native son Derrick Rose earns a chilling, powerful ad spot from adidas for their ‘basketball is a brotherhood’ campaign. As an added bonus, Chali 2na (Of Jurassic 5) is the perfect narrator for the spot adding an inspiring feel on top of his descriptions of Derrick Rose’s strengths and skills and plugs for adidas products (that TS Lightning Creator is my next bball shoe.. it’s already etched in stone). It’s just a dope video that Max G. and I felt right away had 2 be the feature. The sky is the limit for D-Rose and the Chicago Bulls!

Aside from the fresh D-Rose video, some audio and video can be DLed and seen below. Nothin’ hit me as bein’ special but dead prez and Styles P came thru w/ a catchy track as did Wale & a bevy of features. Video-wise, Fly Union, who also performed at the Mickey Factz show the other nite, are lining up to make a splash with their upcoming album and collaboration with G.O.O.D. Music’s Big Sean, so we’ll definitely be on the lookout for that. Browse it all below. Enjoy!
