'Ferias no Brasil'

Although jealousy will inevitably strike when watching this beautifully put together short, it does feel the Monday morning heart with joy. So please do turn the heating up in your office/house and enjoy!

Record of the Day: Lupe Fiasco

The anticipation is nicely building for Lupe Fiasco’s Lasers album. In order to keep the anticipation rolling, Lupe liberates a new lyrical gem for his fans that subscribed to his iTunes pass. Entitled “All Black Everything,” the Chi-Town MC draws a more optimistic future project if the past is given a second chance. Click HERE to listen.

After featuring in XXL's Freshmen list, Mac Miller felt quite generous and liberated a second track of his upcoming album, 'Best Day Ever'. Entitled, the track was produced by Khrysis and should easily increase the hype surround his music. Click HERE to listen.

Kanye West 'All of the Lights' Video

What do you think of the Hype Williams directed 'All of the Lights'? I think it's ok, the Rihanna set-up is very flattering (removes drool from chin) and the typography is cool regardless that it's shamelessly lifted from 'Enter the Void'.

Record of the Day: Yasmin

Happy Monday, today's 'Record of the Day' is from a Scottish pal of mine. Her name is Yasmin, and her new track 'Finish Line' is rather great on the ears. I have a thing for good art work too, and her last two offerings are very good, well done to whoever was responsible. Click HERE for 'Finish Line'.

Record of the Day: Tyler on Jimmy Fallon

Wolf Gang. Wolf Gang. Wolf Gang. Let me join the hype and blog about these fools and their brilliant Jimmy Fallon performance with The Roots band. The future of rap is right HERE folks.

Joshua Kissi

My man Joshua Kissi, one half of Street Etiquette sits down with 'MADE' for this video interview. 'MADE' caught up with Bronx-Native Josh while he made his much needed trip to Europe for Berlins Fashion Week. I first met Josh about two years ago on a trip to New York, so it's amazing to see the growth in him, his style and his brand.

Record of the Day: Kanye & Katy

Kanye gives Katy Perry's 'ET' the remix treatment and turns nothing into something as the pair croon together quite nicely. A video has been shot for this, so expect that to drop this week, exciting. Click HERE to listen.

Record of the Day: Pusha T

Oooowweeee it's GOOD Music! The wait’s been long enough. Pusha T eventually serves the first impression from his highly-anticipated G.O.O.D. Music debut Fear of God. Titled “My God,” the VA native shows off some appalled rhymes over a militaristic drum-laced beat by Hit Boy. Click HERE to listen.

Individualism

A lovely interview with myself for Individualism's new project 'Stylish Ambition'. Big up Reuben Christian. Pretty funny.

Record of the Day: Alpines

South London duo Alpines have released their debut video, sonically this is very addictive and visually possibly more so. When I was shown this last week I instantly labeled it my favourite of the year so far. A definite breath of fresh air. Check it out above.

Record of the Day: Black Keys

Shock horror, there was no 'Record of the Day' yesterday, for that I am sorry. All is well though as The Black Keys unveil their latest music video from their Grammy nominated album, Brothers. You can peep the visual piece for track number eight, “Too Afraid To Love You” right above.

VMan

Howdy, here's a short video on the upcoming release of VMAN. Shot by one of fashion’s most powerful personalities, Karl Lagerfeld, as he assumes the role of photographer as Kanye West’s face is plastered over the front of the cover. Lovely stuff, could be decent.

Record of the Day: Fleet Foxes

If you were clever enough to give Fleet Foxes debut album a listen, there is no doubt you would have fell in love with the baroque woodsmen from Seattle. Nearly three years have based since their debut LP and we are finally given the joy of some new material. "Helplessness Blues" is more lyrical then previous work but is essentially everything we love about the band. Click here to listen.

Heston x Mandarin Oriental

Heston Blumenthal's new restaurant Dinner at the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park in London opened on January 31, and the Guardian has already reviewed it, calling the food "nothing short of astonishing." Meanwhile, the Guardian's Tony Naylor went on a tour of the restaurant and spoke with Blumenthal and head chef Ashley Palmer-Watts. Naylor also got to sample some dishes, including a pigeon cooked in ale and a dish called "Meat Fruit," which is a dish that looks like an orange but is in fact chicken liver pate coated in a mandarin jelly. Tricky, that Blumenthal. Check out the video above.

Aston Martin x Swizz Beatz

There's a serious lack of nice cars on this blog, so let me re-address the balance... Aston Martin presents the new four door Rapide in a video series featuring Swizz Beatz. Odd combo, but hey, it's all good. Lovely.
