50 Cent in this week’s Time

September 13th, 2007 · No Comments

Just got tipped off to “10 Questions for 50 Cent,” an “interview” made up of questions from 10 individuals that Time is publishing tomorrow, but is online as of today. There were some notable comments from 50, namely “…but I like Hillary,” and when taking a dig at Kanye West pushing his album at the […]

More on 50 and Kanye

September 11th, 2007 · 1 Comment

So the other day, I was talking about the 50 Cent / Kanye West “battle” on album launch day, which was today. While there are some thoughts that are much more specific on who would win the battle between that pair, Jay Smooth hammers home a strong point about what needs to happen to make […]

50 v Kanye OR Is Rap Falling Off?

September 1st, 2007 · 7 Comments

I figured I would drop just as misleading a title as possible for this post, since the teaser I read for this item from the Guardian left me pretty unfulfilled. Sure, Kanye outselling 50 Cent during their “battle” when both artists release albums on September 11 could result in 50 quitting the game, but if […]

More video for your blog

August 27th, 2007 · No Comments

Over at Lost Remote last week, Michael Gay pointed out the ability for you to now drop video content from MTV’s Overdrive into your blog. Quite a big change from *ahem* these days, when Overdrive only worked for Internet Explorer users.

New Transformers theme gets redone

June 15th, 2007 · 1 Comment

In a move that will probably peeve Michael Bay to no end (I mean, let’s “transcend toy roots” of the Transformers already), Black Lab has recorded its own version of the “Transformers” theme song, since they, among others, didn’t care for the Mute Math version that is floating around in snippets and will be released […]

iTunes feature request

December 6th, 2005 · Comments Off

I’m a full believer that there should be a “My Rating” column within iTunes for when you’re viewing other people’s music on a subnet, that compiles the latest ratings that anyone else who has listened to the music gives for a song. Kind of like an internal rating system, offering the ratings of multiple people, […]
