Zune 3.1 vs. iTunes 8.0

27-Dec-08

Before I begin I want to highlight that this comparison will not cover the hardware; it will not cover the store content; it will not cover the codec support; and will not cover the extras (social, genius, etc.). This review simply looks at the two software packages and how they do what they are supposed [...]

Verse of the Moment (April 2008)

02-Apr-08

Wow! It’s been almost a full year since the last Verse of the Moment was posted. Now that’s just pure laziness on my part. However, I have a new one (no, this is not an April Fools joke). If there’s one thing I love more than tight beats and great delivery, it’s the ability to [...]

Kanye West Speaks: 50 Cent, MTV, and the Industry

12-Sep-07

I’m not the biggest fan of Kanye West, as I find him to be a bit too arrogant and self-centered for his own good. However, I admire his willingness to speak so freely. In a recent interview on New York’s Z100, he talked about MTV, the VMAs, Britney Spears, his temper-tantrums, music piracy, and the [...]

The Awe of “Aww”

06-Jun-07

Here is an interesting, depressing, and scary tidbit. Do a quick yahoo search for “aww” and look at the results. Notice anything? Yup. It is a sad sad day in the world and I blame rap music. Lol.

Verse Of The Moment (November 2006)

05-Nov-06

This month I got another oldie but goody for you. It comes from everyone’s favorite, Wyclef Jean. I felt this verse was appropriate given the upcoming elections. Anyway, the song is called “President.” Enjoy.  Artist: Wyclef Jean  Album: Welcome to Haiti: Creole 101  Song: President  Download |  Ringtone (Coming Soon – Hopefully)  Play: [Audio clip: [...]

Verse Of The Moment (October 2006)

01-Oct-06

I know it has been a few months since I posted a Verse of the Moment, but the switch from Windows to Macintosh threw me out of my routine. In addition, it took me some time to find all of the appropriate tools necessary to post these little soundbites. Anyway, this month I got an [...]

How To: Use iTunes Smartplayists On Your iPod

07-Aug-06

The Background: It took some time, and about fifty revisions, but I feel like I have finally figured out an efficient and practical use for iTunes SmartPlaylists. The whole process started a few months back with a post by Geof F. Morris and some comments by Dougal Campbell, which I had documented and revised a [...]

Verse of the Moment (July 2006)

30-Jun-06

Oooh Weee. This months Verse of the Moment is one of my all time favorite verses. Yes, I did indeed say all time. It really is ‘that’ good. I know every man feels this way from time to time (well, I have felt this way from time to time), so ladies, listen, read, and take [...]

Verse of the Moment (June 2006)

04-Jun-06

When I had the idea of posting a Verse of the Moment, I envisioned that it would be secluded to the Hip-Hope genre. Why? Well, I find that other genres (Rock, R&B, etc.) just do not paint as clear or vivid of a picture with their lyrics (usually). That, and I am partial to Hip-Hop, [...]
