Project 365

June 14th, 2009

91dw7t

Project 365, is the brainchild of Avid Liongoren, a graphic designer, director and overall multimedia man. He uploads one photo or drawing a day for the whole year, in hopes of inspiring people to create something new everyday. He cleverly makes use of the technique of drawing into photographs as he draws in little creatures into normal day-to day scenes, making them more surreal and bringing a whole new meaning to the picture.

uni

Born from the ashes of gangsta rap Los Angeles, California is experiencing an indie hip-hop resurgence. Inglewood rap duo U-N-I are the talk of the Internet and guiding hip-hop’s path in the city by juxtaposing music with customized fashion. The two MC’s have loaded up on accolades over the past 2 years– being named “Best Breakout LA Artist” at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards, featured in URB Magazine’s “NEXT 1000,” XXL Magazine’s “New Kids in Town,” Billboard Magazine’s “Acts to Watch,” The Source Magazine’s “Unsigned Hype,” ending up on the “SoundBoard” of The Los Angeles Times and serving as the inaugural artists for Scheme Magazine’s Schemer series–on the strength of their observant, life-affirming rhymes that revolve around everything from limited-edition sneakers to cosmic existentialism and old-school video games to down-home musings on life, declaring their love for music while appreciating plus-size ladies and enjoying lap dances.

Next-Thing in Music- B.O.B.

May 24th, 2009

l_d72ebd4de71c0124bc10cf145c939958

B.o.B has a unique talent in that he produces, writes, raps, arranges, and mixes his own music. He is a one stop music creation shop from top to bottom. This allows B.o.B the rare opportunity of recording with reckless abandon. It is a freedom that he willingly accepts. “I am constantly coming up with songs and concepts because I want to sound different. Nobody made it by sounding like everyone else.” This unique sound caught the attention of two industry heavyweights, Jim Jonsin and TJ Chapman, who are poised to make the rest of the world believers.

Hit beat maker Jim Jonsin, who has already made his mark by producing fire such as “Give It To Me” by Sean Paul and Danity Kane’s “Showstopper” in addition to smashes by Trick Daddy, Trina, Pretty Ricky and others, has signed B.o.B to his Rebel Rock imprint as the flagship artist. Plus, the industry tastemaker, TJ Chapman the CEO of TJ’s DJ’s is serving as B.o.B’s co-manager after helping launch the careers of T-Pain, David Banner, Yung Joc, and Rick Ross to name a few. Why? TJ Chapman simply believes, “B.o.B is the next superstar.” Atlantic must have agreed as they have signed B.o.B to their roster and are eager to help B.o.B achieve his dreams.

May 23rd, 2009

This LA based female duo is a part of the new dance craze and LA hip hop movement “Jerkin”. Kids everywhere are starting to do the “Jerk” dance. The first group who has a big song on the radio is the New Boyz “Your A Jerk” but the Bangz seem to have a lot more appeal as a group where the New Boyz are smelling very one hit wonder. The Jerk movement is very new but taking off very fast, the amount of home made Youtube videos with a couple hundrend thousand views is staggering. The Bangz were produced by established producers the “Co-Stars” who have worked with the likes of Jay Z and Missy Elliot.
