Preview: Common Ft. Nas - Ghetto Dreams (Snippet)

Here is a track from Common's upcoming album "The Dreamer, The Believer." This is the followup to the fan panned "Universal Mind Controller" where many said Common dumbed down his lyrics too much and went too far mainstream with the production.
From the sound of the snippet, the album is going to be more like Be and Finding Forever. This is the first time Common and Nas have collaborate on an album track and with production from No I.D. I'm excited to hear the full thing and the album.
While you're at it, see John Stewart debate Common's visit to the White House with Bill O'Reilly.

Beastie Boys - Make Some Noise

Here's the newest single from the Beastie Boys. I guess they have a new album coming out. I've never been a big fan of them, but I saw the video for the song and loved it. It's got a great old school vibe to it with it's simplicity and mashup of sounds. It's even got a DJ cut and a cowbell!




Here's a link to the video with Danny McBridge, Seth Rogen, and Elijah Wood playing the Beasties'. It's funny and has a ton of cameos in it, including someone for any Arrested Development fans.
