Stingray

New Fool's Gold track courtesy of A-Trak & Zinc.

They call it Sting Ray, and we call it good and fresh out the oven.

Come to think of it....this does sound like an alarm you might hear in a submarine if a giant stingray attacked Godzilla style.

Dubstep remix was also dropped with Benga.

Idle Warship with The Company Man

Gasoline Dream hasn't been puttin' ya'll on to events as of late due to the lack of hotness in the area, however, that is all about to change very very soon.

While many of you who follow these high profile Hip-Hop websites may know of the homie, The Company Man, for his official journalism skills, he's also been steppin his game up as a host for a more than his fair share of dope events. This next one will not be any different and it's in collaboration with our peoples over at Forever Fresh and Brooklyn Bodega. Squad UP

Forever YOUNG

I'm still watching this interview courtesy of Red Bull and Chairman Mao with Young Guru and dude is dropping GEMS. I highly recommend.

CMJ 2011: RUN CMJ

Ugh, this is some crappy weather, but today’s showcase with Rocksmith is sure to break more than a couple of necks. STS, King Fantastic, and Dom Kennedy?? Don’t mind if I do attend this appropriately named event.

A little birdie told me a well respected OG from Queensbridge might be rollin through too so um yea…RSVP and I’ll see you there.

CMJ 2011: We Got The Jazz

I'ma be out and about doing what I need to do for this year's CMJ. Last Night I was over at Drom with Brooklyn Bodega for We Got The Jazz where all of the artists showed their asses off.

Below's a pic of the headliner, Kansas City's own, Miles Bonny. Dude is the real deal. Forreal forreal, you should check out his project Lumber Jack Soul. This is also probably one of the dopest titles in a long time.
