KRS Interview from Bomb-It Part One
This is a really cool partial interview with Hip Hop legend KRS-One. He talks about hearing Kool Herc (essentially the DJ who started the Hip Hop movement) back in ‘73.

Review: Common- “Announcement” (feat. Pharrell)
I was surprised to discover a new release by Common in just under a year after his Finding Forever release; better yet a re-teaming between Com and Pharrell. Oohwee!
Now I’ll give a head nod to “Announcement” as it’s grown on me after giving it a few more listens and seeing the video. Don’t get me wrong, it ain’t bad, and I dig the Com/Pharrell reunion. But musically leaves off where Jay-Z’s “Blue Magic” left off. And lyrically, nothing really really stood out to me. But… =C 2 “Universal Mind Control (UMC)” with it’s electro-funk vibe caught me right away. This jam hit me in the right spot from the start. It’s a good party rocking jam by Com, which is what I think he was missing on his last effort. Plus Com’s delivery is buttery smooth on top of the track. Like Com says, “Get it. Get-get it!”
“Announcement” Video from earlier post
This is the best version of “Universal Mind Control” I found.

Common ft. Pharrell “Announcement”
I dig any song that reps for hip hop. I think this ones pretty dope.
