Say Wut - Keep Rockin Digi EP Out Now
Super producer NSW aka Say Wut has just released a bangin record on the home of Baltimore Club music Unruly Records
Few producers have dominated Baltimore club music in recent years more than Say-Wut. And those who have, namely Rod Lee and Blaq Starr, have distinctive voices to rely on as their trademarks. Say-Wut, on the other hand, has become ubiquitous with a less immediately identifiable sound that's defined, more often than not, by his tracks' high energy and blaring volume.
Listen to the whole album below

Purchase from Unruly Records

Not enough DMX up in here. Oh man, remember when it was cool to wear winter clothes 365 days a year? Like snow goggles and puffy coats? Yeah. Oh and I just found the remix video featuring Canibus. I miss Canibus and his beef with Cool J. Remember that one video where he brought out Mike Tyson? Yeah good times. Speaking of which Mike was just in Cannes for a new documentary about his life and Sony just picked it up.

Thursday: Sole A Philly Sneaker Documentary Premier
This looks dope. Local film premiering this Thursday at the Arbol Cafe.
Sole is a documentary that takes an almost anthropological look into the underground world of sneaker culture in Philadelphia. This film is part of the WYBE series called Philadelphia Stories. A portion of it will air on PBS Affiliate WYBE in May as a part of their sixth season of the annual mini-series event. While sneakers serve may serve their functional or fashionable purposes for hundreds of millions, they also serve as a serious hobby and lifestyle for mavens the world over. Sneakers become not only a collector's item, but some would say that they are even part of a modern art movement.The film goes deep into this underground world by interviewing boutique owners as well as designers and store buyers in order to bring full perspective into this unique business. Sole brings the viewer inside their world for a truly entertaining and informative look into the multidimensional landscape that is sneaker culture. Follow Philadelphia's heavy sneaker hitters as well as everyday sneaker collectors to see what makes them so oddly passionate about this multi-billion dollar industry.
When: Thursday, May 22, 2008, 8:30 p.m.
Where: Arbol Café (209 Poplar Street)
Cost: FREE (BYOB)

You know what...
is way cooler than writing your own blog? Reading other people's blogs which is what I've been doing instead of writing on this one here. Ok, enough of break, I'll get back to posting mp3s and parties and teh c00l stuffz. My favorite lately has definitely been Wonkette. Its just so...snarky! Oooh, maybe I'll try that for once or invite someone to be my official snarkster and hate on all sorts of stuff. Just thinking out loud here. This is totally useful, I'm waiting for an mp3 to upload...
Or just waiting for my host and blogging software to play nice, since they haven't wanted to all day.

Sazz Vintage Opens in Olde City
So DailyCandy is a daily email featuring cool stuff for "an affluent, influential female audience." They have local editions all over and one just for Philly and I found this one to be funny.Last time he went out with the boys, he got thrown out of the champagne room.
Next time he wants to check out some nice racks, send him to Sazz, the newly opened men’s vintage store housed in what used to be Sailor Jerry’s Old City digs. Owner Amanda Saslow’s been hawking vintage for years, but her stock was taking over her house, so she opened up shop.
Clothing from the ’40s to the ’70s will turn the most fashion phobic guys into cravat wearing dandies. He’ll definitely want to check out the embroidered Western shirts and rockabilly gear, and pick up some buckles and hats to round out his look. They also stock bathing suits and lightweight shirts that’ll have him set for summer.
The staff is friendly enough to make him a repeat customer.
And he won’t get in trouble for groping the goods.
Sazz, 38 North Third Street (215-923-7299 or sazzvintage.com).
