Director Steven Spielberg's epic adventure, “War Horse” is a tale of hope and perseverance set against a sweeping canvas of rural England and Europe during the First World War. The film follows the extraordinary journey of a horse named Joey as he moves through the war, changing and inspiring the lives of all those he meets, before ending up in No Man's Land. Based upon a successful book, and turned into a successful international theatrical hit that is currently on Broadway, “War Horse” comes to the screen in an epic adaptation by one of the great directors in film history, Steven Spielberg.
Chox-Mak has been shocking everyone with his versatile flow he switches up from
90's hip hop flow to trap and even makes club bangers.
He usually drops tracks with DJ YRS Jerzy but decided to switch it up and drop a
single with Scotland's own Bunty Beats. Chox-Mak and Bunty Beats bring you
"Takeover" which is a feel good track with a great meaning to it. Chox-Mak will
be dropping more projects with Bunty Beats in the future so just stay tuned for
what the future has in store for them.
Lyricism is making its way back into the game. Several up and comers have helped to restore hardcore lyricism into the rap game. Chox-Mak is among these artists redefining hip hop as it is known. Working his way up the ranks, Chox-Mak has caught the attention of heavy-hitters.
Madonna is taking jabs at Lady Gaga’s ‘Born This Way’ yet again. In a recent interview with a Brazilian TV network, Madonna commented about ‘Born This Way,’ snidely joking, "I'm a really big fan of ['Born This Way']. I'm glad that I helped Gaga write it." Ok Madonna, we get the point.
For
the latest collaboration in the "Three Artists. One Song." campaign
Converse has teamed Gorillaz with OutKast's Andre 3000 and LCD
Soundsystem's James Murphy on Gorillaz latest single, "DoYaThing," which
is available for listening or free download at Converse.com/doyathing.
"DoYaThing," is an absolutely amazing song. Undeniable proof that
after 10 years of making music, Gorillaz is still packing heat and their
ability to lay down ass-spanking, funky, hip hop/pop music has only
grown over the years.
In conjunction with the release of "DoYaThing," Gorillaz' Jamie Hewlett has also designed a kickin' new shoe line for Converse.
As
my profile says, I have a shoe/ boot fetish--one look at the limited
edition Chuck Taylor Gorillaz Collection and it was done. Seriously.
Stick a fork in it. These shoes will be mine.
Gorillaz' Damon Albarn has been working on an extended version of "DoYaThing" for a later release (that 13 minute -->explicit<-- version
was leaked and hit Youtube today) while Hewlett has been focusing his
creative juices on a new video that will capture the funky, wild spirit
expressed in both the shoe line and the new song.
Gorillaz celebrated their 10th anniversary with the release of a new compilation album, The Singles Collection: 2001 - 2011,
and on February 21st they were honored at the Brit Awards in their
native UK with the Outstanding Music Contribution Award. Most important
of all, Damon Albarn has also been working in collaboration with his
other highly successful Britpop band, Blur, on new material and--in what
is sure to become a megaton explosion of pop/punk/funk fusion--Gorillaz
are looking at a return to the studio for a new album as well.
So pop over to the Converse website, check out the cool shoes and
download the new hot tune, the download button is below the embedded
player and it is red. You can't miss it. Gorillaz have also left a message that should make you feel right at home.
"Take a listen and, while you’re at it, get your mucky paws on a
Chuck Taylor Gorillaz sneaker, part of the new limited edition
collection featuring artwork by Gorillaz co-creator Jamie Hewlett. Enjoy
the tasty bits, kiddie-winkles."
