Quick Hit: Holy Sh*t, This Dude Figured Out Ice Cube’s “Good Day” Was January 20, 1992

Paying obsessive attention to minor details? I can get down, but I can't even begin to fuck with the level of rap nerdery that Murk Avenue just laid down. By researching Ice Cube's classic "Good Day" he managed to determine exactly when Cube's good day was. See more...

G-Shock Basic Black, A Must Have For The Amateur Watch Connoisseur (Pics)

Posted by Danielle Harling on 01/27/12 | Filed under Fashion, Watches

I strongly believe that cool watches make the world go round. And G-Shock's new 2012 Basic Black is definitely one of those watches. Personally, I feel like the simpler the watch is the better it typically looks. While it might seem kind of cute to rock a watch that looks like it was inspired by a pack of Skittles it probably isn't. See more...

Posted by Nathan S. on 01/27/12 | Filed under Downloads, Mac Miller

I've laid out the pro and anti Mac Miller arguments so completely over the last couple months that I almost didn't want to post "Death of an Emcee" - I know I'm gonna get sucked into the same debate I've already had approximately eleventy-billion times. But I gotta give RefinedHype Nation what they want. Listen and download....

Quick Hit: D’Angelo’s Alive & (Apparently) Not on Crack! (Video)

D'Angelo's "Voodoo" was the best R&B/soul album of the 2000s, it's not even really a debate. So watching the man go from this to this was excruciatingly painful, except now there's hope! Sure, D'Angelo's first performance in years featured very little of the man actually singing, and it took place in Sweden, but still....

There’s About A 70% Chance That Your Favorite Rapper Is On The “Rack City Remix” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Danielle Harling on 01/27/12 | Filed under Downloads, T.I., Young Jeezy, Fabolous, Tyga, Meek Fill

I'm not sure what it is that draws rappers to this "Rack City" beat but they absolutely love it. For this latest "Rack City" remix we've got Tyga, Wale, and Fabolous, Oh, and Young Jeezy, T.I., and Meek Mill. It's like that "Deuces" remix all over again. It amazes me that a song with this many rappers on it can still be well under five minutes long. Listen and download...

Quick Hit: Lil Bow Wow Is Rightfully Inducted Into The “Hoe Hall Of Fame” On The Breakfast Club (Video)

It seems like Lil Bow Wow was clearly hanging around Snoop Dogg a little too much when he was a youth. During his appearance on Power 105.1's The Breakfast Club morning show the pint-size rapper ran down the list of all the notable women he's been with. Kim Kardashian, Angela Simmons, and Dolicia Bryant are just a few of the names that came up. See more...

Every morning the homie ThroatChopU has been delivering a package of hip-hop dopeness along with your donuts and OJ as part of his Hip-Hop Breakfast series. It's been such a fresh way to kick off my day (as I mainline coffee) that I invited Chop to do a special Friday version comprised entirely of the best tracks featured over the course of the week on DJBooth and RefinedHype.

Cypress Hill Goes Dubstep, Still Love to “Roll It, Light It” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 01/26/12 | Filed under Downloads, Cypress Hill

I may not be old in comparison to the average American, but in hip-hop's youth-fetishizing culture I may as well be playing bocce and eating pureed prunes. And like all old people if there's anything I don't like, it's change. So yes, I am a little freaked out to hear Cypress Hill joining the dubstep movement on new release "Roll It, Light It".
