In line with Gucci Mane and Lil Wayne, I've decided to make a mixtape. The mixtape, entitled The Voided Check Mixtape (26 tracks in total) is entirely original music created/recorded/performed entirely by yours truly. I've also decided to give this music away for free on the internet.

This Plane

Via Nah Right...


Wiz Khalifa has been around for a few years now --- releasing 8 albums (if you count his 7 mixtapes as "albums").

And over his 6 years in the game I haven't really thought twice about Mr. Khalifa...until he released the new single from his upcoming album entitled "Deal or No Deal" (via Rostrum Records, Frank Radio, and iHipHop Distribution). The single, title "This Plane" is definitely fire.

Make sure to check him out this Thursday at Frank Mag's CMJ showcase at South Paw with U-God and some VERY VERY special guests.

MJ - Brooklyn Style

This Saturday - Spike Lee will be throwing a block party in honor of Michael Jackson (on his b-day) -- "Brooklyn Style"!

"It's going to just be how we do it, Brooklyn-style, I'll leave it at that," Lee said. "It's going to be a joyous, festive, celebratory party." And free.


Anybody and everybody is invited to attend the party, from noon to 5 p.m. in Prospect Park. DJ Spinna will spin all things Jackson, from the Jackson 5 to the Jacksons to Michael Jackson. The Brooklyn borough president reportedly will be on hand to declare Aug. 29 "Michael Jackson Day."

"At the end, we'll all sing 'Happy Birthday' to Michael," Lee said. "We're going to make sure he hears us, too. All over the world, people are going to be celebrating his birthday. But he's going to hear Brooklyn; Brooklyn is going to be in the house. Deep."

$5 Shake

Since everyone's been asking, yes, it's true: myself and five brave souls once bodied Harlem Shakes in a battle of the bands at Yale University (fucking ivy league circus out here). But that's neither here nor there; the band's new album Technicolor Health is getting us through allergy season. We loves it and we're not alone.


Throw on your boat shoes and go check out Lexy&Co at Starr Space in Bushwick later this month.
