BEAUTIFUL SOUNDS



This weeks "Beautiful Sounds" pick is from SBTRKT (pronounced as "subtract"). SBTRKT, the London musician/producer Aaron Jerome, began his career as a DJ in the east London. He has remixed songs by artists such as M.I.A. , Radiohead, and Underworld just to name a few. SBTRKT's music is a mixture of two step, UK funky, dubstep, US RnB and Chicago house.
SBTRKT is an alias used to support the concept of anonymity. He explained that he'd "rather not talk about myself as a person, and let the music speak for itself. The name SBTRKT is me taking myself away from that whole process."


So without further ado here is "WILD FIRE" by SBTRKT ft. Little Dragon


and here goes the remix with ya boy YOLO also known as  Drizzy Drake

Korean Beats Back on Billboard

The Korean pop girl group Wonder Girls are back at it again! The first Korean music act to ever make the Billboard Hot 100 charts just released the video for their new single "DJ Is Mine" featuring School Gyrls. Although this song is what I like to consider "coming-of-age-pop", I had to show love because of the song title, dubstep intro, and the rap verse with the dubstep bridge! The question is: Are these Korean beauty's beats banging enough to make it back on the charts with this new track? I WONDER...



Snoop in Jail for Marijuanna



Snoop D O double gee was arrested in Texas over the weekend for havin that loud pack aka "the stickiest of the icky" and was taking in by tha "Fuzz" aka the police when his tour bus stopped at a border patrol check point when police dogs found a marijuana perscription. Even though he has a prescription for his .........glaucoma....... Texas has a zero tolerance law and took the D o double gizzle to jizzle and he can face up to 180 days in jail.  The real crime is him wearing letter man jackets when your 60 years old #growup. Your still a legend though but stay out of jail. Snoop can resolve the entire matter by paying a $537 fine, unless he wants to challenge the citation, in which case he can make his case in court. He has the money so its pretty much a #donedeal. But seriously your not 18 in high school take off the Letterman jacket your 60 years old #imjustsayin.
