Keiichi Tanaami & Pete Fowler: Super Furry Animals Cover Art

Back in the day, when musicians pressed up vinyl, artists could put incredible detail into their album art because the record cases were so large. But as the medium of distribution became smaller(CD's & tapes) detail was lost. Nowadays all we have are mp3's with tiny thumbnails for covers and you can barely make out a Jimi Hendrix album's artwork. The point is, I'm glad to see a band putting trippy detail into their cover art once more.

Eminem: 3 A.M.


Another Relapse leak, Eminem has a really interesting flow on this track which makes sense since he said he chose beats to challenge himself rhythmically. Good beat too, I'm looking forward to the album May 15th.

Nike Presents Onward By James Jarvis


This is a tight video, nothing more, nothing less. Don't let the minute and four seconds of silence fool you like it almost did me, the music will kick in and things will get very super cool. James Jarvis is a famed illustrator and the co-founder of Amos Novelties through which he helped start the designer toy market.

Eminem: Relapse Cover Art

This is the cover art for Eminem's upcoming album, Relapse. Personally I think it looks pretty cool, and the little prescription from Dr. Dre in the bottom left corner is a nice touch. Look for Relapse in stores May 15th.

Skyzoo: Freshfest feat. Wale

Now that I think about it I should have made Skyzoo a choice in the poll for best up-and-coming emcee but what can you do. Skyzoo is drawing a lot of comparisons to Jay-Z these days, I'm not sure if I agree but he is dope. Couple that with Wale and you got a damn good song.
