Not one to let big brother Chance the Rapper get all the shine, Taylor Bennett came out the gate ready to show the world what he’s about. A few months after he dropped “God’s Children,” Taylor’s back at it with a video for his latest, “Speed Racer.” Directed by TheloVism and produced by Sami Adbullahi,...
I’m honestly not the biggest Will Ferrell fan. He’s stolen a few laughs from me over the years, but overall, I’m not really into his cheesy brand of comedy. With that said, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy was legitimately funny. Sure, it followed the basic gimmicky premise of all of Ferrell’s films where he portrays...
It was a pretty huge week for Ruby Hornet. We had a lot of notable drops, including Tree’s Sunday School 2, Grade Aplus’ “Nate Robinson,” Calez’ G-Unit Bundle Pack, Pyyramids’ performance of “Paper Doll” live on Jay Leno, and the made-for-summer jam, ”Good Vibes” by Netherfriends featuring ShowYouSuck and ELEEX from Impolite Society. In movie news, there’s the possibility...
I know we have at least a few Bruce Lee fans reading Ruby Hornet; I can name at least one person with a jumpsuit similar to the one Lee wears in Game of Death. I hope that person and all Jeet Kune Do fans out there get their wallets ready, because Shout! Factory, the people behind...
MikeJaxx has been keeping extra busy this week (as if he doesn’t stay busy already). With his remix of Chance the Rapper’s “Juice” and production on the amazingly well-received Grade Aplus track “Nate Robinson” making the rounds the past few days, Jaxx is ending the week on a high note with this new track, “Ride Out”...

The festival originally featured AraabMUZIK, but he had to back out due to unforeseen circumstances. Bigger news, however, involve a venue change in...
An unreleased Wu-Tang track has risen from the dungeons of rap! Released by Soul Temple as a “customer appreciation offering,” the track is available for streaming and purchase on their official bandcamp. “Execution in Autumn” features production by Frank Dukes with verses by RZA, Raekwon, and U-God. Even better, Soul Temple is offering the track...
The Hangover was a surprisingly funny film. I have a tendency to carry a high bar when it comes to comedy films, and while it didn’t quite meet it, it still warranted a few laughs. However, I haven’t had a chance to catch The Hangover Part II, but from what I’ve heard from fellow film critics,...
After Skyfall came out last year, director Sam Mendes stepped away from the franchise, choosing not to direct the next entry in the vast 007 franchise. Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, in their search for the next potential director, have begun informal talks with The Dark Knight Rises director Christopher Nolan. According to the Daily Mail, the...
Impolite Society’s Sidewalk Kal is the smooth, laidback member of the group. That’s not to say he doesn’t go hard at shows, but his studio stuff is always so chill. Buoyed by some beats produced by producer Mattron/Yung AOL, Kal delivers a smooth flow complete with a Sega reference. If you haven’t heard any of...
