The first trailer for Edgar Wright’s (Shaun of the Dead) next film, The World’s End, appeared overnight like a Christmas morning present. The trailer for the film, which I listed as one of the Top 10 Summer ’13 Movies, sheds some light on the story. Desperate to finish a pub crawl they never had a chance...
First off, let me tell you that anybody who references Icky Woods or the infamous “Icky Shuffle” wins me over almost immediately. It doesn’t hurt that the two emcees in this record happen to rap really good too and to top it all off, the instrumental was produced by Thelonious Martin. This is a can’t-lose...
2013 is shaping up to be a big year for science-fiction films. The latest to find itself added to this list is the film adaptation of Orson Scott Card’s sci-fi novel, Ender’s Game. Directed and written by Gavin Hood (X-Men Origins: Wolverine), Ender’s Game involves humanity searching for a new military leader amongst its children following an alien...

The menacing beat produced by Chris Classik fits perfectly with Phero’s raw delivery and flow while the emcee spits some of the best lines...
Before eGo delivers his Vicodin: The Prescription EP tomorrow, the Chicago upstart put out “Caught In Traffic”, a track that will surely be a favorite among many. The sample is on point and having Add-2 on the guest-tip is always a plus.
Na$im Williams put Vic Spencer, Tha Guyver & Cocky on the same track and nobody is safe. “Mysterious Colors” is a wicked joint in which I honestly don’t know what stands out to me the most, the verses or the instrumental. That’s definitely a good thing though.
Wheatie walks through an abandoned house in this anti-climatic visual for his “My 708′s” song. This dude has been growing on me with every new release, can’t wait to see what he has planned for the near future.
We’ve already talked about Wyclef Jean‘s recent visits to Chicago, but this past weekend the man himself called in during the latest Closed Sessions Radio with DJ RTC & J.R.
