Monster - Kanye West feat. Bon Iver, Rick Ross, Jay-Z & Nicki Minaj
I’m hearing that this is an unofficial release which is why the quality is so shitty, and knowing Kanye it will probably get pulled down soon, so get it while you can! Regardless of all that, I fuck with this video. It’s not revolutionary or anything, but it’ll make you smile, and god DAMN, Nicki just kills...

Complex: Why do you think like indie rock sites are posting your music?
Lil B: Because I’m a rebel. I’m a punk. I’m like a rocker in the rap world. I’m one of the outcasts. The motherfucking guy that’s just fucking crazy. Playing pranks on the fucking football stars and the athletes and then fucking their sisters. I think they see the raw emotion in me, because at the end of the day, I make music at the realest point. I try to convey an emotion.

Hip Hop x 2010: Detox; Mixtapes
This year has the potential to be the best year in a long time, especially for hip–hop. We’ve prepared a few things that should be on your radar.
Despite being one of rap’s most widely influential producers and lyricists, Dr. Dre has not released a new project since 1999 when he put out 2001. In 2002, he announced plans to release a “hip–hop musical,” a concept album looking at one central...

Last FM vs. Pandora
Here at Slaponomics, one of our main goals is to show you how to find your next favorite artist. Unfortunately, we only have five hundred words every two weeks with which to do that. To fill in for us in those recesses there are a few websites that will do the job in our absence. The most popular of these sites are Pandora and Last.fm. While they have similar intents, they go about it in very...

In many contexts music can be one of the best forms of relaxation. The problem is that sometimes when you sit yourself down to tackle that mundane worksheet that’s been hanging over your head all week, hit “shuffle” in iTunes, and get to work,...
