Late Pass. Japanese Cartoon, the rock ‘n roll side project of Lupe Fiasco Percival Fats, quietly dropped a few days ago. I didn’t even know it had been unleashed (and for free, nonetheless) until someone sent it to me just now. Shame on me. My apologies to the band, maaaan. Nine tracks of fury below… Japanese Cartoon…

Video: Griffen’s iPhone App
Here’s a promo video and first look at Griffen’s upcoming fully interactive iPhone app; and it looks super dope. Once upon a time there was an FSD app in the works, but that went down the drain alongside the FSD lunchpails and credit cards. Oh well.

Video: J Kidd feat. NaPalm – Stoned
St. Louis and Chicago connect for this video for J Kidd’s “Stoned (Like My Whiteboyz)”, which is an ode to drug usage and partying. Unfortunately, the song does not borrow from the Big Boi line in “Elevators” as I’d hoped, but it still does the trick. For the second time today, Just Say No.
