I remember when I first heard this beat, automatically Rae was put on a high mantel, and set a high bar for the rest of the WU-Members. You gotta love the dudes slang in combination with his unique flow…
This is the movie that made Martin Scorsese, Martin Scorsese. Taxi Driver is one of those films that forces you to question things about morality that you haven’t before. If you haven’t seen Taxi Driver, your education in film hasn’t even begun. Since it’s release it has set a bar which not many movies have reached.
Like Raging Bull, another successful Scorsese film, Taxi Driver features Robert De Niro in top form. As good as the actor has been elsewhere, these two pictures mark the apex of his superlative career. From his first scene in Taxi Driver, De Niro is Travis Bickle, a 26-year old ex-Marine searching for work that will keep him up all night as a means of combating insomnia. At the outset, Travis is a lonely, disillusioned man who can still function within the “normal” constraints of society. As time passes, however, Travis becomes increasingly alienated from the world around him, spiraling into a state of dissociated delusion. He sees New York City as a place of urban decay populated by “animals” and “scum” that need to be swept away. And who better than him to initiate the process? De Niro’s performance is so perfectly-tuned that we in the audience don’t have a moment’s doubt or disbelief about what’s taking place in Travis’ troubled mind.
Twenty years after its initial release, Taxi Driver has reached screens in a new, pristine print featuring a remastered stereo soundtrack. And, despite the passage of two decades, the only thing dated about this film are the fashions. Taxi Driver’s message still rings as true as ever, and the characters are as shockingly believable as in the mid-seventies. This re-release offers movie-goers another opportunity to see one of Scorsese’s most influential and disturbing films on the big screen.

So Mr. Jones actually is liking the situation of his album leaking, hmm very rare. But I know he is not aiming for selling success but more awareness of his message

A few new tracks have been released (or unreleased) from Nas, 5 to be exact; Testify, Were Not Alone, Queens Get Money, Breathe, and You Can’t Stop Us. It really looks like a leak is inevitable, but I hope we can all still go out and support Nas, because I know a lot of you visiting this site have grown up on the dude’s music…
Enjoy

I use to be a heavy source user, I only trusted that magazine to provide me with real quality hip hop news and reviews, but then Benzino happened. If you don’t know the story, you’re going to have to google or Wikipedia it because its too much to explain, lets just say it went down hill and fast.
However, there is a relaunching underway by new owners and they are attempting to reclaim the thrown the magazine once had as the number 1 hip hop publication.
B.E. Greenwich, a division of the highly successful Black Enterprise magazine, and the North Star Group, led by entertainment lawyer L. Londell McMillan (who has represented the likes of Russell Simmons, Kanye West, Prince and Michael Jackson) have purchased stake in The Source and look to revitalize the self-proclaimed “Hip Hop Bible.”
With new ownership at the helm, The Source will begin its new campaign with a new magazine layout as well as looking to jump headfirst into online territory with a new website and mobile platforms.
But do people even read hip hop magazines?
Kanye and A-track did a track for Nike, which was suppose to feature Mr. Fiasco, but It was not approved by Nike, so Kanye posted this track on his blog with Lupe rapping over A-Tracks beat. The track is pretty nice
Enjoy
Rogers has really gone too far this time around and given us Canadians horrible pricing packages which where announced on Friday. The lowest plan is 60 but only comes with a minuscule 300 megs (sound like a lot but, just one facebook page is more then 1 meg). I understand that corporations are soley here to generate revenue, but i feel that Rogers is burning their bridges because with the auction for the wireless spectrum at hand, they are going to feel the effects of this move with the years to come.
I’m not going to purchase this Iphone under these restrictions. It pains me but you know what it is just a phone, and technology rapidly changes and advances.
If you feel that the Rogers, has ruined the Iphone experience for you please go to www.ruinediphone.com and sign the petition, it already has 19,000 signatures.
Okay, I know the name is extremely cliché, but I am definitely enjoying a relaxing day with my friends and family. I hope all my Canadians and TOaliens, enjoy there days off as well.
