Converse X The Clash

When you think of kicks you automatically think

Nike. When your Granddad thinks of kicks, he

thinks of "Chucks". When you think of influential

musicians, you think of Kanye. When I think of

influential musicians, I think of The Clash. If you

don't know who The Clash are, then look them

up. If you don't know what "Chucks" are, you've

probably just moved here from another planet.

Last month Converse released the London Calling

Chuck Taylor Shoe to commemorate the 30 year

anniversary of the London Calling LP.

Ant's Album of the Week

Every week i'm going to be posting an album

that influenced us or was just hella dope. I'm

doing this because other than Deltron Event II,

I really don't see any new music on the horizon

that I'm happy about. So sit back, enjoy and get

your Bit Torrents warmed up.

Aesop Rock-Labor Days

Labor Days is considered to be Aesop Rock's

definitive work, hailing near unanimous praise

from all critics, and becoming a cornerstone of

the underground rap movement from the Early

2000's through the present. With his taste for slow

melodic beats and the metaphoric(and much bitten)

rhyme style, Aesop delivered a much needed shot in

the arm of a hip-hop community coming off a Puffy,

Mase, Master P, Mainstream Rap high. The entire

album is flawless but check out:
