Eminem - Saturday Night Live Performances (Video)

snl

Eminem was the music guest on this weekend's Saturday Night Live. He performed "Survival" and "Berzerk". The fact that he got Rick Rubin to appear alongside him is pretty impressive. I hear he doesn't leave his house that often.

Props to Yardie for the uploads.


Marco Polo - G.U.R.U. feat. Talib Kweli & DJ Premier (Video)

MP

Marco Polo drops a fantastic video for the track "G.U.R.U.", a tribute to the late rapper. Talib Kweli lends his voice to the record with cuts from the other half of Gangstarr, DJ Premier.

This is one of the best videos I've seen for a while and I have to admit that I got slightly choked up towards the end of the clip when you see Premo watching Guru on a TV. The look on his face lets you know that Guru is sorely missed.

Stalley - Gettin' By (Video)

St

MMG's Stalley drops off another new visual from his "Honest Cowboy" mixtape with the track "Gettin' By". Another example of why he is, in my opinion, head and shoulders above the rest of his label mates artistically.

The Bouncemasta DJ Doo Wop releases a nice new mixtape of R'n'B and rap remixes. It's titled "Halloween Candy" and has nothing to do with Halloween but is a great selection. Worth the free download!

Allen Iverson Officially Retires

AI

Tonight one of the greatest basketball players of a generation will officially retire. Allen Iverson will be honoured at the Philadelphia 76er's season opener against the Miami Heat. Despite not suiting up in an NBA uniform for three years, AI will be officially retired in the city he called home for much of his career.

He never managed to get that elusive championship with the Sixers, although he came very close in 2001, but the numerous awards, personal accolades and the numbers he put on the board over the years speak volumes. The only thing I can really do is show some video highlights of his career and to wish him well. It's a sad day.

Watch his retirement press conference followed by some highlights.





DJ Scratch on Crate Diggers (Video)

DJ Scratch

One of the most amazing DJs I've ever witnessed in person is the latest guest on "Crate Diggers". DJ Scratch opens his vinyl collection with some rare treats and stories too.

Also, after his episode, check him remembering the late Jam Master Jay. JMJ died 11 years ago today.

Jonny Dub - Songs For Sinners (Mix)

Jonny Dub

Jonny Dub, the Manchester DJ/producer and boss man at legendary night Hoya:Hoya, releases a nice mix of tunes just in time for Halloween. Taking from horror genre spanning 40 years, this is something to accompany the upcoming festivities and earlier dark nights.

Jonny Dub -

"Probably the most out there mix I have done, straight from Vinyl (well mostly) featuring some of the horror genre's most boundary pushing and original pieces of music from the last 40 years. Please I hope you enjoy the journey.... If you like drums, synths and weird shit, then this ones for you!!"

Illa J and Frank Nitt AKA the Yancey Boys drop a visual for the brilliant "Quicksand". Over an unheard Dilla beat (like the rest of the new album) the two lay verses with help from Common and features Dezi Paige on the hook.
