Read the rest of the insightful interview with Takashi Murakami HERE.

Hollywood Holt is an entertainer and emcee through and through. If hip hop is pre-school then crowds are his play dough and other emcees are the hypothetical glue that he eats. Before even throwing this mixtape up here I had to make sure that this shit was really as hot as his bold ass title suggested and flat out if you dig rah-rah style hip hop then this is THE SHIT. Joined by his cuzzo Dj $ Mano on the beats and Dj Benzi hosting on the turn tables Hollywood Holt is someone you must not ignore. GET UP ON MAGIC!!

Fashawn has a done it again. The Golden State’s Golden Child has one of the longest and biggest foreseeable careers in hip hop being that the dude is barely 21. This is a must have for your IPad,Pod,CD changer. GET UP ON MAGIC!

Danny Trejo aka Machete lowriding with Mister Cartoon from SA Studios Global on Vimeo.

20 Century Fox requested that Soul Assassin’s Studio produce a couple of video’s revolving around Danny Trejo and his up coming film Machete. What ended up being produced feels like a regular Sunday out Lowriding with the homies in sunny L.A.

Prefix & Potholes clicked up to deliver you a 24 track sampler in 2 discs in the tradition of burning CD’s to jam to in the heat of summer time. Whether sipping lemonade and puffing the insides out of Zig Zag’s on your stoop, porch or backyard this should be a nice addendum to your ambient sound track. Riddled with exclusives from the brightest emcees across the country you got to  GET UP ON MAGIC!

Mike Baker the Bike Maker of HNRL only scoops his inspirations and visual impressions for his songs from the most left field Japanese Anime or in this case the decadent “Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls” . Without an ounce of hipster know it all-ness Mike digs up dope visual obscura and mashes it up with his rhymes like no other artist in hip hop. The combinations gel so well it’s hard to tell if his rhymes came first or the accompanying video but there isn’t any confusion when it comes to quality. Mike Baker kicks ass.
