Ellie Goulding

Just in case you haven’t heard of her yet, she’s a pretty dope, tal­ented singer-songwriter hail­ing from the UK. Dig­gin’ her sound. It’s like Lykke Li x Björk.

Buck 65 Music Video Treatment by Travis Hopkins

Check out this video with dope typographic-motion treat­ment by Travis Hop­kins, BUCK 65 “Super­stars Don’t Love”.

This is a spec­u­la­tive music video I made for The Leg­endary Buck 65. It is com­prised of over 60 fic­tional movie title cards inspired by the lyrics of the track “Super­stars Don’t Love” off Buck’s 2011 release “20 Odd Years”.

Pon de Floor

What is so addict­ing with this dope-ass beat?!

I heard it first with Major Lazer’s “Pon de Floor”.

Then later last year in 2010, Diddy-Dirty Money’s “Ass On The Floor”.

And recently, Beyonce’s “Run The World (Girls)”.

What­ever it is—dope beat is dope.

Genki Sudo, Warrior-Poet

I’ve heard of MMA fighter Genki Sudo a while back only to be reminded and refreshed that he was an enter­tainer now (under the same name) by the home­girl Belle.

Here is Genki Sudo’s group World Order, in their music video, “Machine Civ­i­liza­tion”. Music by Genki Sudo/Takashi Watan­abe; words by Genki Sudo.

Ain’t it dope?!

Santigold — “GO

Santigold has never been one to mince words. The Brooklyn-bred musi­cian turned heads with her 2008 epony­mous album and col­lab­o­ra­tions with artists such as The Beastie Boys, Major Lazer and oth­ers. Here, along with the pre­miere of her new track “GO (feat. Karen O),” Santi decodes the mean­ing of the song (which was pro­duced by Q-Tip, Switch and Santi her­self, along with Nick Zin­ner on gui­tar), work­ing with Karen O of The Yeah Yeah Yeahs and the con­cept of the new Amer­i­can Dream.

Lis­ten and read up some more over at Jay-Z’s Life+Times here.
