What’s BEeFF?

Jonah Bromwich prefers the Arsenio Hall Show. Maybe it’s me, but rap’s gotten really funny again. Despite Eminem transforming into the most stoic dude ever to drop a sixteen, plenty of groups have emerged to take the mantle of hip hop class clown.

Sach O: Magnetic Man ft P-Money – Anthemic

Sach O doesn’t really want to think about the state of local radio. “Now I don’t mind being stuck in traffic cuz I can listen to Rinse.FM all day.” Sometimes, it’s the little things that make a difference.

Not A Blogger Redux: A Weekend At Burnie’s Starring Curren$y & Vincent Chase

Doc Zeus is the new face of Avion Tequila. I like Curren$y and by extension his music, precisely because he seems like the kind of Trey Kerby-certified bro who likes arguing about sports and would enjoy watching aggressively stupid movies under the influence of stimulants. He spends time in his raps complaining about shitty officiating… Continue reading »

Sach O: Hissy Fit – Sunshine

Sach O: demented raver in a quarter-life crisis. Happy 4th from your neighbors to the North. May it be filled with grilled meats, fireworks and no old British ladies on your money.
