Then you were wrong. This mash-up by Paris resident ComaR of Radiohead’s ‘No Surprises’ and M.I.A’s ‘Paper Planes’ is actually very dope. I thought it would be a long time before I could listen to the overplayed track again, but mixed with the best band on the planet; it was bound to find a surprisingly fitting result.
It’s hard to go any period of time without seeing some sort of news about Diplo in this community. After a successful fall tour, the party DJ/producer is going to release a compilation of his work in the past year or so. The album is called Decent Work for Decent Pay.

Above the Fold can’t get enough of WALE. We are anticipating his new album like a 15 year old with a sex date. You can imagine our excitement when we saw that the Washington D.C.-based MC was not only featured on a new M.I.A. remix, but also that he leaked the first track off his new mixtape titled LRG x Wale x 9th Wonder Presents: Back to the Feature. The track features a dope Curtis Mayfield sample. Watch Elitaste for more news on the Mixtape.
Judd Apatow’s go to guy, Seth Rogen could sh*t on a brick on camera and 30,000,000 people would go watch it. His latest movie Pineapple Express has laugh out loud moments, but is certainly lacking in overall comedy that his previous movies thrived on. One thing this movie had was a stellar soundtrack.
Rogen stopped at LA’s comedy club See You Next Tuesday last week to do a stand up routine. He talks about his weight, sex, porn, and Steven Hawking. The routine only lasts about ten minutes but is full of laughs. Check out a live recording of the set below:
