This cover is incredible…… I love it…. Probably the best album cover that I’ve seen in 5-10  years….. Janelle put it in the pocket. “The ArchAndroid” will be in store May 18th. -!YG (more…)

Shafiq Husayn of SA-RA ft. Bilal – Cheeba

I was feeling the video so much I had to get the mp3 for my ipod. I copped Shafiq’s album “En’ A-Free-Ka” yesterday & its pretty f’ing dope. I’ve always been a fan of the SA-RA vibe and Shafiq’s LP is just an extension of that. Enjoy… Click Here to download. -!YG

The Black Keys LIVE

Last night I had the pleasure of previewing some new stuff from the Black Keys & I was truly impressed. The Black Keys will be dropping a new LP in May. Also, they will be playing MSG opening up for Pearl Jam in May. I’m definitely a fan now. -!YG

Nikki & Rich

I’m not crazy about shorty’s hair (weave whatever) or look, but I can’t front on the music. Nikki & Rich are going to make some serious noise in 2010. The tunes are infectiously catchy & you can’t help but tap your toes & sing along. Get familiar with this duo. -!YG

YG x 88 Keys – Arise Magazine

Pick up the newest issue of Arise magazine & peep the piece I wrote about 88 Keys. 88 is in the process of creating his latest musical opus. Definitely an artist to keep on your radar in 2010. After the jump check his new video “True Feelings”. -!YG
