you may be confused as to why i’ve decided to lump these two songs together in the same post. well, jam the santogold first, and then the jay. you’ll know in a few seconds. if you don’t, then this site isn’t for you. matter fact, music may just not be for you.

so if it all makes sense, then treat yourself to something special, available below.

BONUS: santogold – unstoppable

because it’s the movie of the year, no question about it. i even got caught in the theater crying as i subtly attempted to wipe the solitary tear that streamed down my face. no shame over here, though. trust. not sure what it’s about? just watch the trailer below.

i actually never saw a preview for this. i just got the good word from some trustworthy peers that it was a must-see film. that’s the best way to go into movies, honestly. sometimes it can backfire, though. like when my dad told me to come see this movie called independence day with him. i thought it was gonna be all patriotic and stuff. damn. he got me.

i digress. slumdog millionaire is definitely an all-time favorite. everybody came out the theater smiling. i think i’m calling all my homies “slumdogs” from now on, too. oh, and from what i could tell, the soundtrack is crazy. my dude smokeYYY threw me one of the M.I.A. tracks featured in the film, “o…saya”, and i just got the entire soundtrack. can’t throw it all your way, but i got a few samples. download below!

DOWNLOAD: M.I.A. – o…saya

hip hop DX reports that a direct-to-DVD sequel to new jack city is in the works. but wait! barry michael cooper, creator of the original screenplay, is furious about this! find out why.

cooper revealed to DX that director mario van peebles would not be directing this sequel, and characters such as chris rock, ice-t, and wesley snipes are nowhere to be found in the scripts (editor’s note: i love wesley, but isn’t he in jail? he couldn’t be in the movie if he wanted to!).

he believes franchising such a movie is a great business move for the studio, but a kick in the face to those who created a classic, gangster film that inspired and motivated several of today’s moguls.

“I know Warner Brothers is not only in the business of making movies, they are in the business of making money. So on that level, I understand why they want to make a sequel of New Jack City as fast and as cost-efficient as possible. But New Jack City is a franchise, and a movement and a template. If there was no New Jack City, there would be no Nino-swagger available for Sean Carter, Sean Combs, Dwayne Carter, and Clifford Harris to study and become Jigga, Diddy, Lil Wayne, and T.I. There would be no Paid In Full, and there would be no The Wire. So for Warner to do a direct-to-DVD New Jack City without Wes Snipes, Al Payne, Ice-T, Chris Rock, Mario Van Peebles, and myself, is almost like doing the Godfather II with the cast of ’70s sitcom Barney Miller. It’s a stinker. But it is what it is.”

damn, homie. that’s a major $#!t stain in the film’s artistic integrity. hopefully this situation will be sorted out. either that, or the film’s cast is so on point that we forget the fact that we just bought bought it for 5.99 at target.

don’t forget the classic, though. and never mess with nino brown.
