"Gaga says they will use a new stage that stretches from one side of the arena to the
other - "imagine an in-the-round experience, but larger," Gaga said.
While she was typically coy about revealing too many details about the tour,
she did say that she and West would "spend a lot of time onstage together."
Gaga also provided a look inside the notion behind the show - and, for fans of
the flamboyantly bizarre singer, the high-concept show sounds as though it will
be unlikely to disappoint.
"The storyline is that Kanye is on one end of the stage and I'm on the other,
and the whole show, we are trying to get to where each other is," she said. "
I want something that he has, which is the fame, and he wants something that
I have, which is home, and my humble beginnings. So we battle each other throughout
the entire performance to steal each other's spaces."
"So I'm essentially on a quest to kill Kanye West to steal his fame."
Not that she really needs it."

LISTEN NOW!
Anticipation for "Where the Wild Things Are,"
director Spike Jonze’s film adaptation of the beloved
children's book, is beginning to reach a fever pitch with
the release of its soundtrack, available exclusively on
imeem today. Jonze tapped Karen O -- who as leading
lady of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs is a certifiable Wild Thing
herself-- to compose songs that capture the innocence,
vulnerability, and tiny triumphs of being a little kid with
a big imagination. Dust off your wolf suit and prepare to make mischief.

I found some amazing shots of a recent Janelle Monae performance
and I'm salty that I missed it. The photos are by Chris La Putt and
they are freaking amazing. Jane performed at Terminal 5 with Of Montreal
(an American indie pop band formed in Athens, Georgia) Solange also performed,
she joined the band and Janelle for a cover of Diana Ross's "Love Hangover" during the encore.

"...what a lot of people are missing about Monáe is that she puts the art of performing above all else, politics be dammed. Even finishing her follow-up record--Metropolis Suites II and III, due out in January--is of less concern than getting onstage and acting it all out....

Her BIO via MYSPACE:
I play guitar, I sing and I write, all three make me exceptionally happy.... I enjoy my own space and spend a lot of my time daydreaming..
It always makes me feel slightly uneasy when people ask me what my songs are about. If it's not blindingly obvious, is it not better to interpret from them what you need or want? I personally find this is when I feel most connected to an artist.
OK, so I’m currently on my busking tour of the UK – going to beautiful and strange places – going anywhere, and playing. It’s what I love to do. All of this is being filmed and posted on my new site www.guerrillabusker.com! Please check it out. I started off in London then moved south (Brighton, Portsmouth etc.) and I’ve just been doing some of the North – went to this year’s Edinburgh Festival which was amazing fun – what a great city. If anyone has any suggestions of towns/landmarks that you think I should play, feel free to get in touch via GuerrillaBusker.com.
I'm currently coming to the end of recording my first album – it’s going to be out very soon. We’re doing a digital release and a beautiful, special album – a whole new concept in albums… but I probably shouldn’t be talking about this yet! The album’s working title is ‘Stories From The Self Obsessed’. Am I obsessed with myself? No, but I am obsessed with making music.
If you haven’t heard me Guerrilla Busking, you might have heard my track ‘Run Dry’ on Adulthood. Bashy was searching MySpace, found me & loved the track. I was totally flattered for it to make the film!
Savage Fox records’ co-founder Kwame Kwaten says of Kerry Leatham: “I met her one day in Colchester in a strange pub. What was obvious was she really didn’t like talking at all. She was nervous as hell but when I heard her play guitar and sing.. all that nervousness disappeared.. she has ‘it’ (whatever ‘it’ is). A beautiful, intelligent, urban-folk thing. Close your eyes, listen and she takes you there..”

Nabil Elderkin is my new favorite music video director.
He recently wrapped production on Mr. Hudson's new cut "White Lies".
Mr. Hudson posted some stills to his site.
I'm excited to see the finished project! I really dig Elderkin's aesthetic.

So I want to do this and I need your help:
Dear Dad is a video project that peeks into the lives of your friends, brothers, cousins,
co-workers, sons, fathers, and uncles. We’ll introduce you to SGL (same gender loving) men of
color living in Atlanta. You’ll learn a little bit about who they are, who they love and what they
do. Then, we’ll explore their relationship (good, bad, or indifferent) with their father or father
figure. More specifically we’ll explore their relationship as it relates to their fathers perception of
them as SGL men. This exploration will be done via a letter. They’ll have 1500 words or less to
tell their father whatever it is that they feel they need to. They’ll share the contents of the letter
and after reading they will decide whether or not they want to mail the letter or destroy it.

You know...I can't appreciate a good come back. If I go through the proverbial wringer
I hope to return refreshed, rejuvenated and reincarnated. Whatever she went through
it's clearly had an impact and it shows, I can see her scars and it makes me wanna
show her mine. I can't lie her GMA gig gave me doubts and as a fan of her voice left
me feeling sour. Somehow this video and song has me convinced. Perhaps it was her
interview with the big O, or the fact that the song is retro and catchy, but Whitney
is getting me together in all kinds of ways these days. Check out her video for Million Dollar Bill.

I see the video cameo is coming back.
There's nothing particularly special about this video.
It's your basic R&B cut.
Sexy leads, urban street wear, glosssy and flossy.
I posted it because I really like the song.

Before I start I have a caveat/clarification. For the last year or so I've avoided a lot of hip hop records simply because as I get older the more I realize I'm not a huge fan of the genre in general. I've had come up with an operational definition of Hip Hop and I feel the need to compartmentalize different artist and put them in their own separate categories. I put Kid Cudi in my "Alternative Hip-Hop"compartment. So to clarify, I don't like Hip Hop overall, I feel there is a lot more bad than good, HOWEVER, Kid Cudi and other Hip Hop artist like him I appreciate and have nothing but admiration and respect for. Furthermore, since I'm not a fan of Hip Hop I can't (and won't) critique this record in terms of how "hard it goes" etc and so on. This review is all about his ingenuity and creativity as an artist.
This album's concept is based around the tales of young Scott. It's a narrative and it's divided into different acts. You're going to cream your shorts when this drops. Producers: Kid Cudi, Kanye West (exec.) Emile Haynie, Plain Pat (co-exec.) Ratatat, Dot da Genius, Jeff Bhasker, Free School, Crada, Illfonics

So according to Pitchfork MGMT and Ratatat will appear on long awaited Kid Cudi Album.
I have a huge cheese rat grin on my face. Frankly I'm excited to the point of a a pup tent.
here's what Pitchfork had to say:
So maybe that Jay-Z working with MGMT rumor was actually about Kid Cudi: The track list
for Cudi's debut album, Man on the Moon: The End of Day, has ben released, and along with
the whole thing being narrated by Common, the album features two tracks produced by Ratatat,
one of which features MGMT.
The album is movie-influenced, and is split into five acts. I'm putting the odds of there being a
clear narrative arc at 14 to 1.
Here's the track list:
Act 1: The End of Day
01 In My Dreams (Cudder Anthem) [produced by Emile]
02 Soundtrack 2 My Life [produced by Emile]
03 Simple As... [produced by Plain Pat]
Act 2: Rise of the Night Terrors
04 Solo Dolo (nightmare) [produced by Emile]
05 Heart of a Lion (KiD CuDi Theme Music) [produced by Free School]
06 My World [ft. Billy Cravens] [produced by Plain Pat and Jeff Bhasker]
Act 3: Taking a Trip
07 Day 'N' Nite (nightmare) [produced by Dot Da Genius]
08 Sky Might Fall [produced by Kanye West and Kid Cudi]
09 Enter Galactic (Love Connection Part 1) [produced by Matt Friedman of ILLFONICS]
Act 4: Stuck
10 Alive (nightmare) [ft. Ratatat] [produced by Ratatat]
11 CuDi Zone [produced by Emile]
12 Make Her Say [ft. Kanye West and Common] [produced by Kanye West]
13 Pursuit of Happiness (nightmare) [ft. MGMT and Ratatat] [produced by Ratatat]
Act 5: A New Beginning
14 Hyyerr [ft. Chip the Ripper] [produced by Crada]
15 Up Up & Away (The Wake & Bake Song) [produced by Free School]

"a few minutes' sketch off the awesome musician's album cover that I'll probably be too lazy
to finish. if you don't know her, then check out the epic sci-fi music video for Many Moons!
skip ahead to the music! if you're not hooked, then... well I don't care. let's get a smoothie."

"Woodworker Peter Rolfe has created some of the most lovely hand crafted wood pieces of traditional forms, like console tables, chairs and jewelry boxes.
But his latest sculptural pieces, in the form of female and male human bodies are so interesting, I had to share them with you. Crafted of birch ply, the male and female sculpted torsos include functional drawers. Take a look."

Advance photos of LADY GAGA in the new V MAGAZINE
V Magazine issue #61
Photographer: Mario Testino
This is the first time LADY GAGA appears on V MAGAZINE’s cover even though she was in issue #60 with an inside spread. LADY GAGA was photographed by MARIO TESTINO in NYC and wears Marc Jacobs styled by Nicola Formichetti. The magazine is available on newsstands staring today, Sept 1st. It will come in 2 different versions with GAGA “wearing” removable electrostatic blue and pink Marc Jacobs glasses. The interview was conducted by former MTV VJ John Norris and GAGA appears bronzed and gorgeous!
Editor-in-chief STEPHEN GAN quote regarding the new cover: "When the Marc Jacobs pink hooded coat and glasses came down the runway, I knew there was only one person I wanted to see in it: Lady Gaga. Growing up as a kid obsessed with new wave, I would cut up paper sunglasses and put them on to celebs’ faces on magazine covers. These plastic peel on and peel off glasses come in pink and blue and are actually based on the Marc Jacobs ones that came down the runway! There's no other celeb that has done more for the eyewear biz than Gaga. Giving people something tactile and collectible...I feel like a kid again peeling those glasses on and off the V cover."
[thanks AUSTIN!]

Universal Motown Records has enlisted the hottest producers in the game to pay homage to Michael Jackson by remixing their favorite tracks from The Jackson 5’s timeless catalog of gems and jams. Akon, Swizz Beatz, Q-Tip, Ryan Leslie, and Rodney Jerkins are just a few of the superstar producers who are featured on MICHAEL JACKSON: THE REMIX SUITE. Boasting more than 20 innovative renditions of popular hits such as “ABC” and “Dancing Machine,” along with obscure classics like “Maria” and “Skywriter,” MICHAEL JACKSON: THE REMIX SUITE I-V will be released in five digital bundles of five songs. The first bundle—featuring Polow Da Don, The Neptunes, Dallas Austin, Salaam Remi, and Stargate—will be available for digital purchase on August 25, followed by a new bundle every two weeks leading up to the physical release of the entire collection on October 27.
“It’s no secret that Michael Jackson’s phenomenal talent inspired countless entertainers,” says Universal Motown President Sylvia Rhone, who spearheaded the making of MICHAEL JACKSON: THE REMIX SUITE I-V. “But his music also inspired many of today’s finest producers. That’s why we thought it would be exciting to invite them to put their own unique spin on his work. From Michael’s amazing vocals to the great melodies, grooves, and arrangements¯the material they had to work with is so incredibly rich. It’s inspiration feeding inspiration and the results are fantastic.”
MICHAEL JACKSON: THE REMIX SUITE I-V is as diverse in sound as its dazzling array of notable producers, which includes Tricky Stewart, DJ Cassidy, Steve Aoki, Frankie Knuckles, and Benny Blanco, among many others. “We jumped at the opportunity to be involved with this project because Michael is a legend who influenced our entire career and redefined the world of music,” says Pharrell Williams from The Neptunes, whose seductive and synthy reworking of “Never Can Say Goodbye” is anchored by an irresistibly heavy bass line. For Salaam Remi’s reggae remix of “ABC,” he “imagined the Jackson’s taking a trip to Jamaica in the early ’70s with a Jamaican band playing behind them.” And for DJ Cassidy’s cheerful rendition of “The Love You Save,” he says his goal was to “unite the sounds of Michael’s work with both The Corporation and Quincy Jones to create something fresh but equally timeless, classic, and inspiring as the original.”
MICHAEL JACKSON: THE REMIX SUITE I-V is not a somber tribute to an iconic legend gone too soon. It is a fun, fresh, and funky testament to the infinite mass appeal of the early works of Michael Jackson and The Jackson 5 that will inspire, uplift, and electrify listeners for generations to come.
The five part digital Suite Series of Remixes Available on iTunes every 2 weeks beginning August 25th!
Michael Jackson: The Remix Suite I Aug 25th
Michael Jackson: The Remix Suite II Sep 8th
Michael Jackson: The Remix Suite III Sep 22nd
Michael Jackson: The Remix Suite IV Oct 6th
Michael Jackson: The Remix Suite V Oct 20th
