Bette Davis Eyes

So I was looking for video footage on Miles Davis's ex-wife Betty Davis and I came across this video. I might as well post it since Mylo sampled it for this track and Diplo did a mix that I keep hearing in the clubs.

R.I.P. Yankee Stadium

It's too bad the Yankee's didn't make the playoffs either. 

Damn, I miss the old New York!

Bad Lieutenant

Written and directed by the same guy who brought us The King Of New York, I don't know why Hollywood is remaking this film. On another note, it's too bad the New York Mets didn't make the playoffs...

Evelyn "Champagne" King

Check out Evelyn King looking like a member of the X-Men. This performance blows away the official video. On the fashion tip, look for Kanye West to be rocking the glasses she's wearing in his next video. Word on the street is he's gonna include a pair with the sale of each album. Take that 50 Cent!

Watermelon

Petey Greene in effect... I'm speechless...

Product Of The Day

Since the Dow just suffered it's worst point drop ever, let's look at what $800 can buy you today.

Womans Flats! That's right! Kaws has linked up with Marc Jacobs for this release. And for the cheap price of $800, you can buy a pair! I'm sure the ladies are feeling this! Now if you're a hustler and thinking about making some extra money, then you might want to consider running to the nearest Marc Jacobs retail store and buying a few pairs. You might be able to flip them on ebay for at least $1500.

High Times

For the record, I do not do drugs or encourage anyone to do them. On Saturday night I traveled down to Hollywood, Florida to spin at Spirit Nightclub, which is located inside The Hard Rock Cafe (shouts to Angel). Anyhow at the end of the night my driver asked me if it was cool to smoke. I didn't think it was an issue, so he put it in the air. Bad move on my part because I caught a contact and left my camera in his car. And on that note, the plant of choice for that night was crippy weed, which can only be found in Florida because that is where it's grown.

"THE CHRONIC"

God's Favorite DJ

Once again, it's the return of Mixtape Wednesdays. For this edition I'm posting a rare mix of Clark Kent spinnin some originals and r&b classics on Hot 97. This was when the station would let outside DJ's come in and do what they wanted without giving them a playlist during the mixmaster weekends.

Clark Kent  

Live on Hot 97 - Memorial Day Weekend (Part 1)
Live on Hot 97 - Memorial Day Weekend (Part 2)
(Recorded in 1996 or '97)

Tonight At Santos

We'll be celebrating the born day for my mellow Corey Smyth.
Happy birthday fam! 

RECAP

Photos & a video of Grand Puba's performance can be found over on Miss Info's blog and Mel D Cole's site Villageslum. Shouts to everybody who was in the house.

Home Sweet Home

Is this Rock or R&B? Oh wait, it's a power ballad...

ROCK N ROLL DUDE

Bon Jovi helped these guys secure a record deal.
Does anybody know if he took any points or publishing?

ONE

So the song was based on a movie... Instead of kicking out cash to use the material, Metallica buys the rights to the film... I guess that's a good way to use the footage and audio without worrying about clearing it.

Listen to the Outro

50 Cent on autotune...

More Autotune!

This time Just Blaze is providing the chorus...

Biggest Record In The Rotten Apple

Is from a guy who produced Big L's "Ebonics" & Nas's "Ether."
Now excuse me while I get on a plane to Central America.

Mr Vegas

Nice flip of the Barrington Levy track "Prison Oval Rock."

For Promotional Use Only

If you have an album coming out in which you're singing about a love relationship, make sure to keep it gully and break some cameras in the airport. It's much smarter than shooting up the club and robbing people.

Young Matty C & Shecky Green in full effect...

Run Shelly Run

One of the most bizarre scenes ever...

Futuristic Sounds?

With the increased popularity of electro and dance music within the New York market, does anybody think that Hot 97 would consider becoming a dance station again?
