THIS WEEKEND: WTTD Los Angeles recommendations for Saturday/Sunday, June 12/13th, 2010

June 12th, 2010

SATURDAY:

WTTD pal Courtney Cruz and her Devil’s Playground gets all kinky AGAIN with the sequel to her Fetish Girls Burlesque downtown at Bordello Bar – check out some naughty pics from the first Fetish Girls Burlesque show in our galleries here (three thumbs WAY up if you know what i mean from j. satan)

Meltdown’s gallery is having s fund raiser for Downtown Dog Rescue with a group show of more than fifty artists doing portraits of cute widdle doggies, including works from Chet Zar, Nicole Bruckman, Christopher Umana and about fifty more

this actually went public last night, but regardless the Vader Project in Hollywood on Melrose looks fantastic with more than a hundred art-ed up Darth Vader helmets from pretty much every relevant underground artist ever. there’s a catalog signing at two pm.

LeBasse opens for Yoskay Yamamoto’s ‘Familiar Strangers’ show in Culver City

Gary Baseman’s ‘Giggle and Pop’ show from noon until four at the La Brea tar pits with his “Tar Pit Girls” – i like him but he’s a little skeevy, too…

Tortoise shells the Troubadour with Das Boton

Murs brings underground hip-hop above ground at HOB Sunset

i always say Mewithoutyou wrong at Henry Fonda/Music Box

SUNDAY:

revenge of the nerds with Spazmatics at Key Club

Nujabes has gone to that Japanese hip hop heaven in the sky (sadly, he’s the only one there)

May 10th, 2010

dear Nujabes, i never heard of you until you died, and in a weird way i’m glad you did, because now i’ve heard of you. the dude did everything i’ve wanted to do with my life and he is was only a few years older than i am. congratulations on living a life better than most, yo, and rest in peace. pour one out 4 tha homiez, ya’ll.

De La Soul are NOT hippies

January 15th, 2010

de la soul sb high nike dunks shoes three 3 feet high and rising

yep. De La Soul 3 Feet High and Rising shoes. amazing.

hey, hipster swine, the only thing the eighties was good for was hip-hop, so remember that next time you’re getting all dressed up in your neon tights. De La Soul’s 3 Feet High and Rising used to be something amazing and new, and even if it didn’t end up changing the world, it shure changed mine… it turns out that the release is a phat twenty years old now, so happy belated birthday and much respect. (man, i really miss sampling. way to ruin everything recording industry. you are the destroyers of all that is good.)

View Kayne West’s Short Film Directed by Spike Jonze, “We Were Once a Fairytale”

October 19th, 2009

This 11-minute short film from Spike Jonze has been a long time coming… way before Kanye ‘gay fish’ West made one of the greatest interruptions OF ALL TIME, the hype was starting to surround this video (not really a music video, although it features “See You In My Nightmares” with a giddy blacked-out kanye singing and stumbling along). It was supposed to debut in early September but I’ll venture to guess that he wanted to wait until the Taylor Swift fiasco died down, or combine the release with Spike Jonze’s Wild Things flick? Either way, a drunk Kanye is a hilarious Kanye, oh and he PULLS A LITTLE FUCKING MONKEY OUT OF HIS INTESTINES, I’M NOT KIDDING, please proceed:

NEW VIDEO: Drake ft. Kanye, Lil’ Wayne, & Eminem – “Forever”

September 23rd, 2009

drake-forever-lil-wayne-kanye-west-eminem-lebron-james
I’ve heard of the upcoming LeBron James documentary, More Than A Game, (coming October 2nd) but I’m still not sure why it exists… isn’t it a little early to start making movies about the dude’s life at this point? It’s like making a film about TINT’s rise to the top of the hipster kingdom… jeez at least wait til I get there. Last time I checked LBJ doesn’t even have a ring soo let’s all hold off on the BJ’s for a second. If you’re interested, you can listen to King James talk about the flick here… apparently it’s focused on his High School career or something.

Anyway, since this is basketball and not hockey, the film will have a G’d up hip hop soundtrack. The video below is the latest from Hype Williams for Drake’s song, “Forever” featuring. Kanye West, Lil’ Wayne, & Eminem, it’s the featured song for the movie… I don’t really get the “hype” behind Hype Williams, I mean besides “Belly” and “California Love” I think he basically wallows in mediocrity, am I right? Oh and I can’t forget Missy Elliot’s “The Rain”… fantastic. And Nas’s “Hate Me Now”… haha and he made Busta Rhymes “Woo Hah!” ok I get it, he’s a master of the fisheye.
