New Trailer: Man of Steel - "Fate of Your Planet"

These Man of steel trailers seem to be getting better and better. I was getting worried that they were going to pull a "Jack Reacher" on me and use all 5 minutes of action from the movie and place it into the trailer. I must say this movie is promising. In theaters June 14th.  www.manofsteel.com

Lupe Fiasco : Animal Pharm

To all the Lupe Fiasco fans, here's a new  track for you. You will still have to sit on pause for his upcoming album Tetsuo & Youth, but until then Lupe drops “Animal Pharm” for the internet to surfers to enjoy. The wordplay is bananas on this track, the story is told flawlessly.  Listen to his own spin on the George Orwell’s masterpiece.

Video: She & Him- I Could've Been Your Girl

This is pretty nifty; She & Him have premiered the video for their newest song from their new album Volume 3. The video is for  “I Could’ve Been Your Girl”. This will also mark Zooey's directorial debut. Not sure how I feel about some of the dance moves but all in all it's a peppy video with a nod to '60's musicals.

Chester Bennington Is The New Lead Singer For Stone Temple Pilots

The local rock radio station out here in L.A. is KROQ and Saturday night at KROQ's 21st Annual Weenie Roast at Verizon Wireless Amphitheater the Stone Temple Pilots made a surprise appearance. If the guest appearance wasn't enough of a surprise the bigger shower was that the front man for STP was Linkin Park's front man Chester Bennington. Chester Bennington is no Scott Weiland BUT he does have that unique voice that makes a worthy replacement. Even after former front man Weiland stated that STP wouldn't be able to make it without him. Check out a teaser of their new track "out of time".

Get a fee download of the track at ww.stonetemplepilots.com or check out their Facebook page.

Curious about how Weenie Roast 2013 went down here is a clip of the last 2 songs and a little bit of "Interstate Love Song".

Video: Kendrick Lamar - Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe (Explicit)

The video for "B*tch, Don't Kill My Vibe" off of Kendrick's good kid, m.A.A.d city is out now. 

I'm a huge West Coaster and tend to dig most of the stuff out there. This video here is seriously lacking. Watch Kendrick move his rap hands in an empty field and slow motion his way through a church that has some ladies attending a funeral in all white club attire. Don't forget Kendricks Harlem shake moment when he's sitting in the limo alone one second then he's partying hard in the back with 9/10 people...then again at the grave site. I thought you were at a funeral?  You're killing me guys Lol. My bad dude, don't wanna kill your vibe.

Man of Steel - Official Trailer 3

The new Superman flick Man of Steel has dropped it's third brand new trailer that sheds some light on Superman’s background. This Features Russel Crowe as Superman’s father which if they kept it true to the story is named Jor-El.
