Beat Creation Through Clips

I haven't posted in for-ever and I wasn't planning on posting for a little bit longer now just because there hasn't been much post worthy stuff, but this caught my eye.

So I'm not sure if there is one person or several people doing this but it's basically taking audio samples from videos and using only that audio to create beats, melodies, words etc. Just watch...

Wale + Travis Barker - OG'z

Favorite artist ATM plus an insane drummer, this can only equal a good quality song...here's an in the studio session:

Alicia Keyz: Doesn't Mean Anything Behind The Scenes

One of my favorite lady artists doing her thing...

Jay-Z & Bridget Kelly : Empire State Of Mind

And another Jay-Z post...

Here's my favorite track off the Blueprint 3, done with a new ROC Nation artist, Bridget Kelly. She sounds amazing, almost on par with Alicia Keys with a little twist of her own vocal talent.

DJ Khalil : Kinda Like A Big Deal

Here's a behind the scenes look at the making of Kinda Like A Big Deal. Crazy song and even crazier to see how it was made. I love watching behind the scenes and in the studio stuff just shows how much work goes into making the beats and all that other good stuff.

Attention Deficit Release Date?

So for those that don't know Wale is a rapper out of the Washington area who has caused quite the uproar on his way up with his interesting go-go styled music.

Everyone is anxiously waiting for his album release date and it seems like there is a date set for September 22nd of this year. Although he doesn't say it specifically in this video there is buzz around the net that it's the correct date.

Personally I can't wait, Wale teamed up with a few other hot artists and producers which should make this an incredible album. Stay tuned!

Kanye West + Lady GaGa Tour

A weird co-op of artists but this is a pure money making tour. Take 1 part Kanye West, one of the worlds biggest stars, and add 1 Part Lady GaGa another world-wide pop star and you get an explosive number of fans out there spending outrageous amounts of money on pre-sale tickets as well as re-sale tickets.

Now some of you may be thinking that Lady GaGa will be opening up for Kanye or vise-versa but according to Kanye it's a collaboration tour. Suprising yes but at the same time why not? Both artists are larger than life right now and to get together and tour just makes it all the better.

No further details yet but expect more info down the wire in the near future.
