Brenton Duvall – Against a Mad World (Tupac vs. Tears for Fears)

Which is about as awesome as that picture.  Remember when you were in high school and that friend loaned you a copy of ‘Donnie Darko’ and you subsequently downloaded Gary Jules’ cover of “Mad World” on KaZaa or something?

Well, I was that friend.  I didn’t get laid as a result.  Neither did you.  You just got a virus from using KaZaa.  And I’m pretty sure that cover is the only thing Gary Jules ever did.  So in the end, we all lost.

Against a Mad World by BrentonRules

Also you might remember Brenton Duvall AKA BrentonRules from the most-clicked mp3 on MJF (Ambien Trip.)  Dude’s got skills, and I find this to be true for increasingly less mash artists.  So check out some of his tracks, or maybe his Potomac Boys Club Demos.

Wiz Khalifa – In the Cut (Behind the Scenes)

This is the kind of party that every college Hip-Hop head would love to be at. My favorite cut from the mixtape and it looks like what’s shaping up to be my favorite visuals, too.

this could be your new favorite band…Barbara

i’d heard their awesome Kid Cudi cover before, but haven’t until today checked out more of their tracks. turns out members of the band contribute to one of our favorite blogs, audiomuffin “Moon Trip” is probably my favorite, but they’re all really cool mellow songs to either fall asleep to or start the day with. Can’t go wrong with a song named “San Francisco” either

enjoy
Barbara – Unicorna (Demo)
Barbara – Pursuit of Happiness (Kid Cudi Cover)
Barbara – San Francisco
Barbara – Moon Trip

their Robopopironica EP is out now and the LP is on the way!

Dam-Funk – Hood Pass Intact (ft. Mc Eiht)

Dam-Funk – Hood Pass Intact (ft. Mc Eiht)

Dam-Funk is another talented dude on the Stonesthrow roster. he kind of resembles Kat Williams and his high-pitched voice is reminiscent of him as well. He’s joined on this cut by Mc Eiht, who practically had his career ended by DJ Quik. “Tell me why you act so scary?/Givin’ your set a bad name with your misspelled name/E-I-H-T, now should I continue?/Yeah, you left out the G ’cause the G ain’t in you.” – DJ Quik – ouch! so much for keeping the hood pass intact

Rad Omen – Search & Destroy (free album)

until yesterday, no one really know the identities of Rad Omen. turns out it’s Benji Madden (of Good Charlotte – meh!), Dirt Nasty (aka Simon Rex), Peter Dante (“I get my weed from you, Dante”), and DJ Troublemaker. the video for “Rad Anthem” was somewhat of a mostly junkfood anthem, with all its Hollywood fast food and cocaine debauchery

Rad Omen – Bumpin and Grindin

and now they dropped their first album for free! it’s got some drum and bass and some straight dub bangers

Wolfgang Gartner + Deadmau5 = Wolfmau5

Wolfmau5 – Animal Rights

i dig this new collaboration from Wolfgang and Deadmau5. you can clearly hear both of their styles in the mix. looking forward to seeing what else they can cook up. no recent word on deadmau5′s ketamine habit, but it was recently announced he’s doing the house music for the 2010 VMA’s. that’s a big deal

BONUS:
Jin Sonic & Drive (Wolfgang Gartner Dub Remix)
Deadmau5 – Faxing Berlin (Grifta Dubstep Remix)

Toure Interviews Lauryn Hill on Fuse’s Hip Hop Shop

Lauren Hill explains to Toure why she went all Dave Chappelle on us, why she hates white people and if she’ll ever drop a follow-up album to the classic Miseducation of Lauryn Hill (that awful MTV Unplugged does NOT count)
