5 Artists Who’ve Sampled the Late Donna Summers…REST IN PARADISE!!!

May 17, 2012 Front Page, Music No Comments

Damn, Donna Summers was cold talent-wise and physically! Her voice was crisp but she was stunning at the same time. Ms. Summers, who didn’t put up much of a fight climbing the charts in her 40-year career, battled with cancer, as a lot of people her age are. At the age of 63, she succumbed to the disease. I wish we could lock cancer up in jail and throw away the key because it’s taking more lives than gun violence.

Donna Summers will be missed by many. There’s no doubt that she probably has inspired music by some of your favorite artists/groups. Below there are five artists that have benefited from her talented life. Peep!

RIP Adam Yauch (MCA) of Beastie Boys

May 4, 2012 Music No Comments

Cancer is a beast! The American Cancer Society has recently stated that cancer has already taken 577,190 lives this year. It nevers gets old and you don’t have to be old to get it. Forty-seven-year-old Adam Yauch, better known as “MCA” of the crew that brought you the new style, Beastie Boys, has also lost his three-year battle with cancer. Our prayers are with his family as well as the many others who’ve lost a loved one due to this disease.

#NewMusic: Alori Joh “The Love Religion” [Download]

February 9, 2012 Music No Comments

The untimely death of a soul so angelic left so many people wondering, who, what, when, where, and why – but only God truly knows. Yesterday evening, a select group of family, friends, and mourners in the community gathered to remember the life and legacy of Alori Joh.

Online the outpour of love and disbelief is endless. Her last tweet was of her promoting her sister’s Tumblr. And if you happen to visit her sister’s Twitter page, you’ll witness her reaching out to one of the TDE affiliates asking about Alori’s whereabouts. And as you digest that, you might be able to imagine the emotions of Alori’s sibling.

“The Love Religion” is the last official project of the late Alori Joh. Get familiar and download HERE

T.D.E. 1st Lady, ALORI JOH, Gone Too Soon! [12/16/86 - 2/8/12]

February 8, 2012 #ThatShitCray, Music 1 Comment

This morning I got word that Alori Joh passed away and like most people who knew of her work or knew her personally, I’m speechless. The lovely songstress was known most for her connection to T.D.E., the collective that houses talent such as Kendrick Lamar, Jay Rock, SchoolBoy Q and Ab-Soul.

I met her at the 2DopeBoyz BBQ in L.A. and upon introduction I expressed how beautiful her music was. We interacted on Twitter about upcoming music. While discovering her music for the first time, I’d reached out to her and bigged her up on the “Brazil” record with D Tonez.

If you ask me, she was well on her way. I don’t get how such a beautiful soul could leave so mysteriously. If the cause of death below is true, my mind will be a scattered puzzle for a while.

#NewMusic: Mac Miller “Death of the Emcee”

January 28, 2012 Music No Comments

Mr. Peter Parker and DJ Whoo Kid have joined forces to produce for some and introduce to others, “FRATRAP.” Mac Miller is a perfect addition to the ensemble. While Jay-Z was so adamant about bringing death to auto-tune, Mac is more focused on the emcee. Don’t spoil your dinner, but get a taste of what’s more to come!
