Culture Club Reunion?
Rumors of a Culture Club reunion are brewing. Boy George reportedly told BBC he's considering bringing the gang back together to celebrate their 30th anniversary in 2011."We’ll see. It’s all about my mood at the time," George said. "I think we could do a one-off gig or maybe a small tour."

Wu Massacre
Suchhhhhhhh a dope album cover. Meth, Ghost, and Rae produced by RZA and Mathematics featuring Inspectah Deck and Cappadonna among others. Finally set to release March 30th (we'll see if that sticks). In preparation for release, the trio decided to create some trailers directed by Rik Cordero inspired by the David Fincher film "Se7en" starring themselves as "criminals studying criminology who made some ill murder shit happen" as so eloquently put by Raekwon. They're actually pretty stupid but extremely entertaining. It's also funny because everytime a trailer ends it displays the album release date, which gets pushed futher back each time. Watch parts I, II, and III here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGjMZa1gqq8

Here is a behind-the-scenes clip of the making of the music video for one of the songs on the album "Our Dreams", which is also a continuation of this elbaorate scenario they've come up with in the trailers:

PUTS Review
Show couldn't have been doper, just found this review, I forgot to post after I went. Those are my eyes Double K is gazing into."I'm always one to judge, but it's just too easy when Phish hats and older white gentlemen with glitter on their faces pepper the crowd. Man how I long for the days of seeing People Under the Stairs at SOB's, smoking blunts with Double K during the headliner because they were a supporting act. But while selling out a large NYC venue may bring out some cheesier faces in the crowd, the PUTS remain true. Playing nearly a decade of hits--hearing "Acid Raindrops" and "San Francisco Nights" made me reaching for the wax when I got home--Thes One and Double K still know how to turn a room out. And like on every record they've done, they payed homage to New York's hip-hop roots. Greg Nice even made a guest appearance to show his appreciation for the duo's historical knowledge. I will give the crowd some credit though; at least they kept the bouncers busy by keeping the room filled with the sweet smell of cheeba."
