VIDEO:Gnarls Barkley – Who’s Gonna Save my soul

I’m a little late with this but you know what they say…better late than never. Gnarls Barkley comes through with a rather disturbing yet really ill video for the hottest track on ‘The Odd Couple’. This song really resonates with me for some reason. I bet I’ll find myself thinking about this video in the [...]

Since I saw them lastnight

I saw this on Consequence’s Kyte channel and couldn’t resist posting it since I saw Tribe perform last night at Rock the bells in Boston. I forgot to record some video unfortunately so this will have to suffice for now.

Here you go.

Young Chris – “Spittin”

I was perusing Young Chris’ YouTube channel and came across this freestyle. I think it’s pretty hot. And he says “Chris and Neef forever”. Pretty heartwarming stuff especially since it seemed like he left poor Neef in the dust. Enjoy…

 
Also came across this….Always thought that they deserved more accolades for the second album so I’m posting this video, [...]
