Juvenile - "Ha"
Juvenile during his Cashmoney years with the music video for his first single "Ha" off the album 400 degreez. While this song is catchy as hell, and decently cool, it is also the song that many people say ruined mainstream hip-hop, and turned it into what it is today. So basically, f*ck you Juvenile. Half of these dudes you hear on the radio today shouldn't be there. Half of these "hit" albums, would've never seen the light of day. It's the combination of this crap, and the passing of Biggie, that made the bar tremendously lower. With that said, you still have to consider this one a new age classic.

Son of the Beach
I always knew that Howard Stern was one of the producers of this show, and all I know is, if he's behind it, then that's reason enough to give it a chance. Mix in some ridiculously hot girls, and I'm sold. I watched it for the first time ever last night, and I must say, that this is one of the funniest shows I've ever seen! Hulu.com has every episode, from all 3 seasons, and I can't recommend it enough. The first episode starts out with 2 Asian guys speaking perfect English, yet there's subtitles, also in English. Priceless. Check out ALL the episodes for free at http://www.hulu.com/son-of-the-beach.

Newsday Write-Up on Peter Toh!
Check out the article on Peter Toh in Long Island's Newsday! It's available online now, and will be officially released in the actual paper on Sunday, so be sure to check it out. Many thanks to Glenn Gamboa of Newsday for a great write-up! Check out the full story below or the original on Newsday.com
For Roslyn's Peter Toh, it's 'Love' at first sound
Peter Toh says it was a case of being in the right place at the right time.The singer-songwriter from Roslyn just happened to be sitting around with rapper Lil Mama, Miss "Lip Gloss" herself, and her father after working on building their studio. When they started talking about needing another song for her debut album, "VYP: Voice of the Young People" (Jive), Toh said he had exactly what they were looking for and pulled out his song "Truly in Love."
"They loved it and said, 'Let's record it right now,'" Toh says. "I'm so glad it worked out."
Not only did "Truly in Love" work out well enough to land on Lil Mama's debut, she kept Toh on the song, making him one of the album's collaborators along with Chris Brown and T-Pain.
"I'm really proud of it," Toh says. "It's a good dose of validation because it's so hard getting out there."
Now, Toh is focused on getting himself out there. He is planning to release his debut single, "Bone Structure," to iTunes next month and is working on material for his debut album rather than trying to go out and get a record company to support it.
Along with his manager, Adam Schleichkorn, Toh has created hiddentracktv.com to promote his music as well as other indie-minded videos. (The site is currently spotlighting another collaboration between Toh and Lil Mama called "Fire.")
Toh says his indie streak comes from immersing himself in Long Island's indie-rock scene, following in the footsteps of Glassjaw and The Movielife.
"I want to create a hybrid, something new, but not abstract," he says. "I want to be on rock radio. I want to do a new rock music, rock with a dash of something new."

Classic Music Videos - "Something" by The Beatles
The music video for "Something" by The Beatles, which was made with pretty much all personal shots of them just hanging out and having a good time, but still doing the song much justice. George Harrison was ridiculously underrated, and had a bunch of great songs that are right up there with Paul and John.
