Jay-Z & Kanye West - NO CHURCH IN THE WILD (Official Video)

What makes this conversation worthy I think is not so much the images, which we've seen even more powerfully in very real life, but the fact that these two guys could have have depicted anything they wanted and this is what they chose. Shot gracefully by director of the year (imo), Romain Gavras.

*New Video* Daughters - Nas + Complex Cover


Really like what they did with this. Directed by Chris Robinson.

*Nas' Life Is Good album dropping July 17th. Complex put the man on a great cover but unfortunately (in my opinion) fell short on what could've been an equally incredible interview.

Staple Design Announce Beats by Dre Collab Headphones For Sale Tomorrow, May 25th

I'll let Big Homie tell it:

Here at Staple, we are obsessed by brands. Not just the buying of brands, but the business of brands, i.e., BRANDING. Pop Quiz: Since 2009, what brand or product has infused itself into pop culture most relevantly and most successfully? My answer: Beats By Dre. Think about it. “Beats” is only 3 years old! But it has managed to create an entirely new category. “Headphones” you say? No…headphones—as fashion. It’s pretty amazing when you think about it. Sure, they have the right marketing. Sure they have the celebrity endorsements. Sure they have all the best athletes rocking’ em. But if you take that all away, you still have a PRODUCT IS KING mentality that is second to none. When Beats was founded in 2006, the newly formed company was aiming to make home speakers. Monster’s CEO Noel Lee insisted on producing headphones though — feeling that “the new speaker is the headphone.” And as head honcho Dr. Dre put it: “People aren’t hearing all the music. Artists and producers work hard in the studio perfecting their sound. But people can’t really hear it with normal headphones. Most headphones can’t handle the bass, the detail, the dynamics. Bottom line, the music doesn’t move you. With Beats, people are going to hear what the artists hear, and listen to the music the way they should: The way I do.”

So….it’s with great honor that we are dropping these: The Staple x Beats By Dre Studio Headphones. Everything you expect from a Beats: Monster® Headphone Cable, Extreme Comfort, Micro Minijack, Scratch-Resistant Matte Finish, Ready for iPhone®, Blackberry®, and Music Phones, Folding Design and Touring Case, Monster® Clean Cloth™, and for the first time, custom designed exterior packaging. The headphones themselves are a visual homage to our iconic NYC feathered friend—THE PIGEON. 500 pairs worldwide. $349.95 MSRP. These will be available on 5/25/12 at the Beats Soho Store and Reed Space. Peace to the entire Beats team for allowing this to happen!

.@THEREALKIDULT Kills It, Sells "Not Art" Tee $680 Cheaper Than Marc Jacobs

Vandals win again. Marc thought he was slick by charging $689 for a tee. KIDULT's is probably better quality and comes from the king himself, and he's charging 6.89 euro. That's less than 9 bucks nigga, you know what to do.

Jay-Z To Headline/Curate All-Genre Music Festival "Made In America" In Philly This September

Another day, another historic announcement for the kid from Brooklyn. You better believe we'll be taking a day trip to see this.

"This Labor Day, we will not only make history but we're benefiting a great organization," says Jay-Z in a statement. "'Budweiser Made in America' will encompass every genre of music, creating and showcasing the only genre that matters, 'great music.' Budweiser and Live Nation are going to produce an amazing two days of performances, and it's great to partner with United Way again to support all of the positive work they do in the community."

Billboard even got to ask the man some questions.

A real life Success To Me moment. Shout to Ayes.

SmokingSection.net (@TSSCrew) Interview w/ T.Shirt "Three Questions"

Gotta say thank you to the man John Gotty for this one. Just the kind of thing I'd want going along with our new visual.

In a gimmick-driven game, T.Shirt’s as straightforward as an artist can get. When he says he’s lived all his album titles, he’s sincere as all get-out and the persona seen and heard in his music isn’t a stage prop to push singles. With a new album two weeks away and previous song titles like “Learning To Fly” and “Coming Up,” we’ve been watching Shirt grow as he writes his living will and legacy. So instead of trying to round up words about his latest video “Success To Me,” we went to the source knowing he would tell the truth as he saw it.
