THE FRATELLIS - WHISTLE FOR THE CHOIR

So if you're crazy I don't care you amaze me
Oh your a stupid girl, oh me, oh my, you talk
I die, you smile, you laugh, I cry
And only, a girl like you could be lonely
And it's a crying shame, if you would think the same
A boy like me's just irresistible

CRYSTAL FIGHTERS (British/ Spanish Folktronica).. something creatively different

Such talent, and so creative, this group formed in London, UK in 2007. Describing their style as "fast, mesmeric and passionate" (Electric Red Flavor!), the band play both electric and acoustic guitars, synths, drums, and incorporate traditional Basque instruments into their music. Many of their songs use a txalaparta, a wooden xylophone-like percussion instrument played by two people standing face-to-face. SEXY!

RAP CULTURE: SOMETHING FROM NOTHING - THE ART OF RAP (DOCUMENTARY FILM)

We can't wait for this to be released! The truth be told about it now

SOMETHING FROM NOTHING: THE ART OF RAP is a feature length performance documentary about the runaway juggernaut that is Rap music. At the wheel of this unstoppable beast is the film's director and interviewer Ice-T.

According to Billboard, Ice-T has enlisted 50 different legend emcees, including Eminem, Kanye West, Dr. Dre, Common, Nas and many others, to discuss the science behind their lyrical craft. He said that the current influence of pop music in Hip Hop led him to want to make a film discussing the serious art of rhyming.

"I've interviewed 50 emcees - everybody - [from] Kanye West, Ice Cube, Eminem to Melle Mell, Grandmaster Caz," explained Ice. "The Hip Hop scene [has] bec[o]me so pop. I was like, 'I'm gonna do a movie about real rappers and what inspired us.' Maybe that'll hit a reset button on the game and let these kids know it's not just about a pop record. Rap can do a lot."


The Art of Rap also features powerful appearances from rap veterans and originators like Ice Cube, Melle Mel, Grandmaster Caz and Immortal Technique. A trailer for the film can be seen below.
