Whoooooooo. Are you kiddin’ me? Max is back, chyea. Don’t fall for that stuff that’s masquerading as R&B these days. This is that piff.
Maxwell – “Pretty Wings” (Album Version)
Now we just need D to get it together too…
“spending every moment in the studiooooo”
I’ve been way too busy recently, which can be a good thing, but sometimes you need to take a night off…or in this case, two. Back on Sunday in time for Sound Session, but first, heading up north with wifey…
Nothing spectacular, but I dig this track and video from Blaq Poet and DJ Premier. You could easily tell me this was from ’99 and I wouldn’t think twice. Great use of Akon’s vocals…woah, never thought I’d say that.
Video swiped from OnSmash.
This is what happens when nobody else is in the studio on SNSS and I’m bored as hell. Plus, I needed a short video to practice editing with iMovie on the new MacBook Pro I recently added to the arsenal. I’ll post up last night’s Sound Session later today, but as you can see, I was busy completely wasting my time.
And yeah, I need to get a little lower on the handstand push ups. Freestanding would be nice too, but I’m not at that Jackie Chan Andrew Bueno level yet. What up Dru!
Anyone know how to maintain the highest level of quality for Flip Cam movies edited through iMovie? I converted the .avi to .mov through Quicktime so it would open in iMovie, then exported in what I thought was decent quality, but it looks pretty fuzzy. Or should I man up and just edit the .avi’s directly in Final Cut Pro? I need to get this U-N-I interview put together and posted up asap…
^^Perhaps my all-time favorite. There are countless more, but these are some of the classics.
Happy Valentine’s Day to y’all…Happy Birthday to me.
If you couldn’t tell, they’re on a boat. Where was Khaled at though?
The Lonely Island ft. T-Pain – “I’m On A Boat”
It’s no Ras Trent, but I’m not mad at it. I think the Poseidon line did it for me.

One of the nicest up-and-coming MC’s in the game, M.anifest, dropped by Peter Parker’s show on B96 in Minneapolis to drop a little verse and debut a new track from his upcoming Coming To America EP. Big shout to both these dudes…M.anifest for making dope tracks (and being in a crew with the homey Budo) and Peter Parker for having a dope show in the vein of what we do here at KUBE with Sound Session. There aren’t many big stations that have outlets like this in 2009 so I hope y’all are enjoying us while we’re still around!
Peep the joint too:
After you peep Prezzo’s story behind this dope track (that I believe I world premiered on SNSS last night), be sure you download it. Shouts to everyone involved – Convinced, E-Dub, Shawn Jack, Prez, and of course the big homey Tunj.
Convinced ft. Shawn Jackson, Tunji, and El Prez – “Mass Appeal 2009 (Remix)”
Hit up the fellas at WhatEyeThought and download Convinced’s Refreshing project right here. FCC like what.
K’Naan’s always been dope to me, but it looks like he’s finally getting a real push this year. Here’s the new video for one of my favorite songs of the moment, “ABC’s” featuring the legendary Chubb Rock. Chubb’s flow is so classic and both of ’em kill it.
