in case you guys didn’t know…

Rant: it’s nothing personal: Above & Beyond Magazine

You might have noticed the lack of posts recently… well for some reason, Tumblr has decided that it would not accept youtube videos html codes in their text posts anymore… which is quite annoying considering that I don’t want to classify my posts using video posts, making the layout all fucked up and what not.

I decided to look around for other alternatives and finally decided to jump to Wordpress. I tried the web version at first, but I realized that you had to basically pay for everything ‘extra’… 15$ for being able to use a custom css, 10$ to point my .com etc… which is just ridiculous, so I’m in the process to get a server to host the whole thing by myself, because IT IS RIDICULOUS.

So the switch should happens in a couple of days… don’t worry if the .com gets weird like yesterday, that only means that it’s in the process of switching host and what not, and yes, completely embracing the wordpress!

cheerio.

Blaqk Audio is Davey Havok & Jade Puget, AFI members, little side project they started back in 2006. While they progressiveley did include synthesized elements in the recent AFI albums, Blaqk Audio takes it up another notch by really focusing their effort into making it the main attraction to their music.

Bright Black Heaven, Blaqk Audio second album, is TBA to drop somewhere in 2010.

Mp3: Lupe Fiasco - What U Want

After a couple of fake Lasers leaks, here’s one that’s really going to appear on Lupe’s upcoming album as it was even confirmed by himself via his twitter. The fake leaks were done awhile ago and unreleased possibly for a reason as this one sounds much more polished and smoother all around.

Mp3: DJ Khaled - Victory ft. John Legend & Nas

While the initial DJ Khaled yelling and rambling at the beginning of the song is definitely there, the beat of the song is, on the other hand, fairly different from the other typical Khaled songs. I think that having John Legend on the song is possibly what balance the whole things out as he brings a more R&B vibe to the song, piano and all.
