Cody Chestnutt - "Come Back Like Spring"

Cody is a musical genius and he proves it over and over again. We will never understand why he chooses live his life in seclusion dropping gems like this sparadically once every year or so....maybe it's his way of putting his all in every song and cultivating it like an organic garden so that it is pure and untainted. Even after being sought after by some of the biggest music labels in the industry he has refused to compromise the integrity of his music for fame and fortune. Eventhough I along with many others long for another full length project from him, I can honestly say that I'm just as satisfied with one Cody Chestnutt song as I would be with a lot of artists entire catalogue....

A skill I wish to one day master

There is definitely an art to effectively using space in your home. This pic from architectural designers Louis Molina and Laurent Turin's "Echo House" is a media junky's heaven. The sliding door actually dubs as a projection screen for an HD projector. I long for a basement of this magnitude one day...

M.I.A. "Born Free" (Video) dir. Romain Gavras

M.I.A, Born Free from ROMAIN-GAVRAS on Vimeo.

M.I.A. was quoted earlier referring to Lady Gaga as somebody whose music doesn't reflect her "envelope pushing" style. She compared Gaga's work to basically the rest of the "pop" music that holds the radio airwaves hostage. This song and video gives us a glimpse of what "pushing the envelope" really should be.

Now let the story begin......

Black Eyed Peas (Pre-Fergie)

Most won't remember Black Eyed Peas pre 'Elephunk', the album that introduced Fergie as a new member of the group. That in my eyes is a crime. Behind the Front was Black Eyed Peas debut album. It is arguably one of the greatest hip-hop debut albums from a group. Driven by production from Wil-I-am, this album broke stereotypes of what West Coast hip hop was all about . It was hip hop at it's purest and transcended coasts at a time when tentions between east and west had reached a boiling point. It's because of this album I've given Black Eyed Peas a lifetime pass for crossing over. Do yourself a favor and check this album out, you will be pleasantly surprised and your ears will be forever grateful.
