Look at all the haters on this XXL thread If all these Beatles/Oasis/Coldplay vs Jay-Z mixtapes have taught us nothing else, its that Jay-Z rapping over pretty much anything is in high demand. Jay-Z vs. The Godfather soundtrack ? That was awesome too. This Kanye produced track features a Santogold sample (Shove It off of her ST debut), and a new...

The track features Cee-Lo (Gnarls Barkley) on the chorus, which, huh, should be about all you need to know. From what Ive heard of this...

New Portishead Video For Magic Doors

2008-11-26 16:53:07 by Liz in My Poproks
 
I almost forgot about Portishead while making a mental short-list for my Top 10 of 2008. The bands third album, Third , will likely be somewhere between number 7 and number 3 on the final cut. The new video for Magic Doors premiered this AM on Stereogum , and is an abstract video collage of weird crap. And I like it

Kanye breaks out the drum line for an energized performance of Heartless on Conan OBrien, does a rendition of Love Lockdown on Letterman that blows his mind (whoa buddy), and last (but surely not least), Kanye does Amazing with Jeezy on BETs 106 & Park . Its amazin

...band fronted by this singer Gwen something. After living a life with this band for almost two years following the release of Return of Saturn , I often get questioned by friends on anything Gwen Stefani related.

John Legend Performs Nutmeg on A Colbert Christmas

2008-11-24 21:16:33 by Liz in My Poproks
 
While I am not the biggest fan of the Colbert Report , I find it often amusing and expected to chuckle a few times during A Colbert Christmas . Above is John Legends performance of Nutmeg from the special (something was missing even though there was enough rum in the eggnog to blind a sailor). This is just an excuse to watch John Legend for 2...
