Rare Chandeliers Collaborators Action Bronson, The Alchemist & Oh No (aka Gangrene) Nearly Demolish Simon Rex's Rental Car in "Driving Gloves"




"I'm the epitome of all fly sh*t — jacket to the shoe sole / Two shooters, Flanagan, Caruso / Fly girl stuffed the drug in her caboose-o / "I see Bronson in the chartreuse coupe mo" / My eyes sparkle like a diva's mirror," charismatic sharp-tongued emcee Action Bronson effortlessly rhymes atop producer Tommy Mas' thumping James Bond-esque "Driving Gloves" beat; similar to a Jaylib-style double rapper-producer Underground Hip-Hop pairing, The Alchemist & Oh No are currently preparing to release their third full-length Gangrene album since initially forming back in 2007. "You Disgust Me begins where Vodka & Ayahuasca [2012] left off, with Al and Oh lyrically vandalizing the minds of the masses over gritty, Psychedelic Jazz, Rock, and Fusion-tinged beats," reads a recent Mass Appeal Records press release, which effectively describes Mas' brooding, Surfaris "Wipe Out"-leaning production work. Esteemed Hip-Hop music video and commercial director Jason Goldwatch described his recent work with Alchemist & Oh No as, "[we're] making songs for videos, instead of the other way around;" leading me to believe that "Driving Gloves" could just be the first of what could eventually become an album's-worth of videos to accompany You Disgust Me.


Goldwatch enlists his typically used techniques throughout "Driving Gloves'" treatment fish-eye lenses, over saturated film, tight camera angles, jarring action shots, high-speed chases, etc. It additionally co-stars Action Bronson cohort and Mickey Avalon affiliate Dirt Nasty aka ex-MTV VJ Simon Rex who plays "Gary, the whitest guy in town." Bronson, Alchemist & Oh No roll up onto Gary's Enterprise lot and forcefully heist... er, rent a 90's Dodge Neon and screech off the premise without Rex's consent. Jason Goldwatch seemingly mounted a few GoPro cams onto their Neon's dash and windshield as Oh No recklessly races down a narrow alleyway while Alchemist & Bronson rapidly rip and shred apart the car's interior and somehow, graffiti expletives across its exterior while still in motion. "Lumberjack rumble in the jungle / Live from the bungalow where I package a rap bundle / Straight funnel, sugar cakes, I'mma bumble / bee that'll sting you and flee without a rumble," Alchemist swiftly rhymes atop Tommy Mas' thumping percussion-led beat during his mid-song verse, metal bat in one hand and spray cans clenched in the other. "Doing speeds like I'm in a Maserati... but I'm really in a Mazda getting high with a hottie" Oh No raps as Gangrene roll back up onto Enterprise's lot with the now nearly demolished Dodge Neon and disappear off into the distance. Gangrene's all-star feature-heavy third album, You Disgust Me will be unleashed upon the terribly unsuspecting world this upcoming August 7th on Nas-owned Mass Appeal Records.

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age.

Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of
