Stones Throw Drops: ST10

ST10, is Stones Throw's freshly released compilation featuring their classic cuts and a few unreleased gems. The two disc (or 2xLP) is currently available at Guitar Center locations nationwide, and has a tracklisting that should render a novice listener of the best and longest running (in terms of genre relevance) art-house label, a knowledgeable veteran of their sonic exploits. From Madlib as Quasimoto, to founder PB Wolf, to a guy named "Doom"--all are given some run. Lootpack as well. Pick it up, and praise the label that really did "keep it real." Or maybe they kept it true? Regardless, show 'em some love. Since they've been doing just that for us fans, for a decade, now. Peace.

got vans?

VF Corporation one of the worlds largest apparel companies acquired Vans shoes a few years back. I was driving home and I actually heard the "Vans" song by the Wolfpack for the first time. Needless to say, VFC (Common Stock-NYSE) fell -.35 to close at $65.17. Don't get me wrong, Vans is a great company and the Van Doren fam is awesome, but I'm curious to see if this song will do what Nelly did for the Nike Air Force I...cuz for some odd reason I wanted to buy some Vans slip-ons after hearing that song on the radio. See what happens when you are stuck listening to the radio in rush hour traffic.

"I got my vans on but they look like sneakers"
I seriously thought Vans put out a radio comercial, but then I realized it was a real song. wow...
