"Bobby Ray teamed up with Reebok on a unique reinterpretation of A Tribe Called Quest’s classic “Bonita Applebum” in celebration of the Reebok Classic Remix collection. The track – entitled “Put Me On” – is available for download exclusively to customers who purchase styles from the Reebok Classic Remix collection, at Foot Locker stores nationwide."

I am an avid ATCQ fan so this got me the minute I heard those familiar keys! But I am also a B.o.B aka Bobby Ray fan so am really digging this one... not to mention the clip is cool.

Theophilus London feat. Jesse Boykins III - Humdrum Town (Audio)

Alicia Keys - Empire State of Mind Part II (Audio)

I am really looking forward to Miss Key's next album, this song is supposed to be made available as an online release before her album drops, although it's not set for an official single release.

Without a doubt the chorus sends chills through me everytime I hear it, no matter how its done! Alicia is queen!

Usher feat. T.I - My Bag (Audio)

I just don't know if Usher can make it back... I hope he can because 8701 and Confessions are incredible albums, but in all honesty I listened to Here I Stand twice and didn't bother after that. Fingers crossed for Raymond vs. Raymond to bring Usher back...



Usher, T.I.

 
Without further ado...
   

 

Janet Jackson - Make Me (Video)

Janet Jackson, please stand up! This song is dope! Maybe it's the Michael Jackson feel that she's bound to bring but I'm happy!

Kid Sister - Right Hand Hi (Video)

Fashawn - Boy Meets World (Album)

Fashawn boy meets world

"There couldn’t be a more fitting title for Fashawn’s debut album than Boy Meets World. The phenom from Fresno has been rising to the surface of West Coast hip hop like yeast over the last two years. Not only does Fash have a strong string of mixtapes, but he’s also been featured on a handfull of five star tracks with other artists. With all of the work that he’s put in, it only makes sense for Fashawn to formerly introduce himself to the world with a proper full length release. Backed by Exile’s beautiful and boisterous production, Fashawn gives the world of hip hop one of the most sonically sounding albums of 2009. To those who might feel as though hip hop has been lacking something, this is the breath of fresh air, and the return to youth that you’ve been looking for." (via Culture Bully click for the full review)

Track Listing:
01 Intro
02 Freedom
03 Hey Young World f. Aloe Blacc & Devoya Mayo
04 Stars
05 Life As a Shorty f. J Mitchell
06 The Ecology
07 Our Way f. Evidence
08 Why
09 Samsonite Man f. Blu
10 Father
11 Sunny CA f. Co$$ & Mistah F.A.B.
12 Bo Jackson f. Exile
13 Lupita
14 When She Calls
15 Boy Meets World
Online Bonus Tracks…

Breathe f. Bravo

ZO! - Just Visiting Too (Free Download) / Nicolay- Shibuya: City Lights Vol 2


Feeeelllll good music! The latest installment to come out of the Foreign Exchange camp, this time from band member Zo! Whilst it only has 7 tracks, this EP of covers is a must have... classic and most definitely for those Sunday jams!  

Just Visiting Too is done best justice when heard from start to finish, especially with appearances from FE affiliates Sy Smith, Phonte, Darien Brockington, Yahzahrah and Carlitta Durand on the bill. The highlight for me is probably 'Nights Over Egypt' feat. Carlitta Durand but the entire EP is on point!

Reggie Watts - Painting the town Reggie (Zero Hour)

"IN EARLY 2009, ZH INTRODUCED REGGIE WATTS TO AUSTRALIA — the Super Comedian and one-man-band. Using his voice, a loop machine, and improvised theatrics through movement; Watts describes himself as a multi-disciplinary comedic performer — we made the claim he was supernatural." (via Zero Hour)



Reggie Watts Improvisation II from Zero Hour on Vimeo.

"Watts’ academic satire... proves to be just the tip of a particularly bizarre and unquestionably miraculous iceberg that leaves audiences both thrilled and gobsmacked. It’s impossible to accurately translate the cerebral cacophony of ideas Watts cycles through in his all too brief performance." (via Zero Hour)

Visit Zero Hour's website for a full review of what was one of my highlights of 2009.
