Hip-Hop | Fat Trel – Fukkk Da Feds (ft. Chief Keef) [Prod. Lex Luger]
Posted by dshaq on August 21, 2012
After their amazing collaboration on Russian Roulette, Sosa, Fat Trel, and Lex Luger are back at it with this new track. Sosa leads it off spitting some fire, which I think it’s his best verse he’s ever done, and then Fat Trel goes in second laying down some good bars. Make sure to download this one now! You don’t want to miss this.

Featured, Review | Lollapalooza 2012
Posted by dshaq on August 14, 2012
As a first timer at Lollapalooza, nothing could prepare me for what I witnessed last weekend. 3 days worth of 100,000 people, 130 acts, 8 stages and one astounding Chicago skyline adding the finishing touch to every night. Lollapalooza 2012 reeled in artists from almost every possible genre of music and every corner of the globe, with a crowd of all ages that was alive every second from start to finish.
Friday welcomed the weekend with open arms and clear skies. Perry’s Stage, known for featuring electronic artists, was stripped of its roof and enlarged to accommodate the recent growth of EDM fans. With artists such as Madeon, Porter Robinson, Zedd, Nero, and Bassnectar all in one day, it’s no surprise the stage and entire surrounding area was packed to the brim. Of the most memorable, 18 year old Madeon managed to squeeze in every one of his crowd favorites, from “Finale” to “Pop Culture” in one hour of solid fist pumping, while the underrated duo, Nero, blew the crowd away with their “Feels So Close” remix and “Promises,” featuring live vocalist Alana Watson. For the more laidback audience, there was Passion Pit, M83 and The Shins, never failing to deliver an uplifting show. And for those who just wanted to get down, Wale, Black Sabbath and The Black Keys finished off the day, rocking the night away into the after shows, which kept the music going across town until 4am.
