The mixtape that brought you PULL UP.

I wasn’t happy with some of the reviews it got, just cause it felt it was such a well put together piece of work. The skits, the transitions, could’ve done without the MCing by Jester but the mixing by Jester was stellar!

Now i look back on it and im like “WHOS GIVES A FUCK” I know them muh fuckahs was bouncing to Pull Up when it dropped

THE HARDER THEY COME: DIRECTORS CUT (Skits & Mixing)
THE HARDER THEY COME: UNCUT (Just The Music)
THE HARDER THEY COME: ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK (instrumentals)

Looking for your favorite ROCHESTER song? Well here they are. I decided to package all my singles and a few of my personal favs into one album and simply call it ROCHESTER.

For all my fans who stuck with me throughout the years.

Russel Simmons recently released this letter to Kanye and its so moving I had to post it

check it out:

Dear Kanye,
I have early recollections of Damon Dash calling me and forcing me to put you on Def Poetry Jam. I knew your record, “Through The Wire,” but I didn’t know much more. When you took the stage on Def Poetry Jam that night, and spit those genuine, heartfelt words, I witnessed your specialness that Damon had emphatically told me about.
From that moment on, you became a poet who has inspired the poets. I have proudly watched your career since then, and in case someone has missed the obvious, you are making a historical impact on music. Your life story took a tough turn with the passing of your mother. Although we grieved with you, we never really knew how much pain you were in. We witnessed your moment at the MTV Music Awards and many of us dismissed it as, “oh that is just Kanye being Kanye.” The hard part of all of this, is that we have all had moments in our lives that have been challenging, painful and hard to overcome, however most of us just hide our emotions and never deal with that inner-struggle that we face on a daily basis. As an artist, Kanye, you have always looked inside for your inspiration…always exuding emotions that are in us, but that we never expose. That is what artistry is about…to look inside for what is unique. With your journey towards a higher level of consciousness, a journey that we all are on, you have shown through your art a commitment to greatness.
The thirty minute film you most recently made was beyond brilliant. Brilliance is not a word that can even begin to describe your ability to paint vibrant, vivacious, colorful yet muted paintings of poetry, music, costume, art, design and most important, passion. The passion you put into your new album is why I stayed up all those nights in the early 80′s trying to get DJs and radio stations to play our records. I knew this day would come. Actually, maybe I didn’t know, but I really, really hoped it would. I didn’t work this hard when I was your age to watch the culture go the wrong way. And you, my friend, just took us to another level. I am simply in awe.
With this power, as you know, comes great responsibility. I am saying nothing you haven’t heard before. When you spoke about President Bush during the Katrina telethon, it was not the particulars of your words that mattered, it was the essence of a feeling of the insensitivity towards our communities that many of us have felt for far too long. It was the image of the President, our President, the President of the United States Of America, peering out the window of an airplane, as the people on the ground were drowning, that hurt us the most. For centuries, our people have relentlessly tread water as hard as they could to stay afloat, and here we were, literally drowning, and it felt like the President was insensitive. There is no need to apologize, Kanye. You spoke from your heart and that is all we will ever ask from you. Don’t be afraid of the press, as your art is your blueprint, thanks to Jay-Z, your big brother, we will always carry our destiny in our own hands. You are are an artist whose art is masterful. You are a servant to this world who no matter how hard it gets, keeps on giving. Giving gifts that inspire us, challenge us and motivate us to be better family and friends.
Keep on, Kanye. Keep on. We love you. We cherish you. And we will always have your back.
-Russell Simmons

Shout out to Blue GM

This is too funny. Too $hort has a special surprise for his fans for his show out in LA. Its Clarke Duke (Kick-Ass) and Michael Cera (Scott Pilgram/Superbad) come on stage and perform his song “2 Bitches.” The crazy part is these guys know all (and I mean ALLL!) the lyrics. Im laughing as i type this cause its playing in the background.

Make sure you spread this to all your friends its guaranteed to put a smile on anyone of your friends faces.

Just remember where you got it from

This has got to be the best video game trailer ever!!!

what about 911 or Katrina !!!!! what a jackass!

Damn Yeezy really needs to feel loved again. Can’t front though, I love the fact that he’s workin for it.

S/O TO www.hollywoodlife.com for this post:

Passengers aboard a Delta Airlines flight from Minneapolis to NYC literally experienced the coolest night of their collective lives Nov. 5 when they were treated to a surprise performance by Mr. Kanye West. A passenger tells HollywoodLife.com that Kanye, who was seated in First Class, came on the loud speaker about 30 minutes into the flight and rapped family-friendly versions of “The Good Life” and “Gold Digger.”

My apologies about the audio but you gotta see this!

This girl has to be fuckin Pat Sajak

I THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE ILLEST GAMING COMMERCIALS EVER.

FEAT KOBE AND JIMMY KIMMEL

Amazing commercial

DC is doing a great job with all the films and short films they’re releasing. So allow me to present to you the latest installment (you’re welcome btw).

If you’ve never heard about Shazam here’s a chance to learn his story. This guy IS (and maybe even more) powerful than Superman… and he’s just a KID.

The only problem i have with it is that its to short.

Enjoy Comic Geeks!
