The years and the phase of ChromeMusic and YUM YUM was left deserted and abondened by Chrome. No production. No Love. No One Around.
We had to break down the Matrix somewhere else.
Urban Dictionary defines “Stupid Money” as: “When you’re so rich you can justify purchasing just about anything no matter how ridiculous it is…” Well that goes for about every hip hopper and i could have posted a million stupid things rappers spend money on, but honestly the gif below is much more epic :)

Well nobody really knows what Shaolin Kung Fu is actually supposed to be these days. Its definitely not a direct successor of the original Shaolin Temple heritage. A form of Kung Fu that is most similar to Hung Gar Kung Fu, resident in the southern parts of China, much like Wing Tsun and Choi Li Fut. But before going into the photo gallery, first here’s a short snippet of RZA’s new bandcamp compilation entitled “The RZA presents Shaolin Soul Selection: Volume 1“. What else did you expect? hahahaha…
And this is how modern day Shaolin monks train for the martial arts. Very reminiscent of the 70s Hong Kong movies. Shaw Brothers anyone? Enjoy…

“Depth over distance every time, my dear
And this tree of ours may grow tall in the woods
But it’s the roots that will bind us here
To the ground…”
Check out the rest of his hauntingly beautiful lyrics while you liten to this terrifc song. Originally recorded in 2012. We are big fans of Ben Howard here at CM so not much too say but… enjoy the song ;) Ps More Ben Howard on CM.
Pharrell put these up on his own Soundcloud and just like the title says, some of his favourite reworks, covers etc of his own compositions, done by other artists.
“I don’t know about y’all but I know about us and uh, It’s the only way we know how to rock…”
Don’t really like the 2004 original that much, but this remix here is something special. The reggae vibes transform it into something else – taking out all the cheesiness or actually bringing out the full cheesiness and making it one of those crowd tunes where the ones who care oh so much about their coolness go “I don’t like it but i am acting like i’m loving it, cause that’s how sarcastic i can get” and the ones who are there to enjoy themselves turn instantly into a happy crowd. The choise is up to you if you are still gonna be caught up in appearances and depending on someone elses appreciation (out of fear, cause that’s what insecurities and complexes are) or if you are just gonna enjoy the moments given, always conscious of the consequences of your actions (so no, yolo and intellectual mindfucks do not apply here). This tune is one of those sing a long – happy crowd is happy kind of songs that you can play at any point of the night, if you’re a dj. And if you are not, these observations are irrelevant… Enjoy the lovely song (ps yes i know its actually an Usher song, but hey my old record sleeve says Alicia Keys, so that’s settled for me)
