Little Lesson (EP vs. LP)  

Just in case you didn't know.
EP= Extended Play
LP= Long Playing record

An EP contains a few songs (usually around 3-5 songs)
LP is a full album.

source.

for example:

Gym Class Heroes have a brand new EP
on iTunes called "Patches from the Quit".
I have it, but I haven't listened to it yet.
I'll keep you posted.

1. Cookie Jar (Featuring The-Dream)
2. Peace Sign/Index Down (Featuring Busta Rhymes)
3. Blinded By The Sun


Now I have listened to the new Adele LP
and I'm definitely digging it.
Full review soon, I suppose.

We Salute:Travis McCoy of Gym Class Heroes  


(bio taken directly from Wikipedia)

Travis McCoy (born August 5, 1981) is the lead vocalist of the alternative hip-hop group Gym Class Heroes. He grew up in Geneva, New York in a mixed race household. His father is black and his mother is white. He is 6'5".

He made his MTV debut in the summer of 2002, as he appeared on stage at the beach house on a standard nation-wide MC Battle that was held on the MTV show Direct Effect.[1]

Travis also has a side-project called Bernie Allen. The Bernie Allen's only album titled Who is... was produced by Sie-1 and released prior to The Papercut Chronicles. Occasionally, Gym Class Heroes will play the Bernie Allen song Catapult Complex live.

Travis' most recent side project (active as of December 2007) is Tequila Mockingbird. Also in the band is Nick Scimeca, who worked for Clandestine Industries (a clothing line by Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz) and is responsible for the signing of Gym Class Heroes to Decaydance Records. Travis has posted several demos from the band on his blog and promises an EP/album early this year. [1]

I'm listening to GCH and thought I'd salute Trav, cause he's a big deal. Here's him and Pete.

VMA 2007  

Smoking Gun: Bullets on STYLE
• MTV Correspondent John Norris is approximately 107 years old.
• Lil’ Mama arrived clad in cabbage patch, purple bubble coat with tea-cup bottom—apparently she called it the birth of hip-hop (w/ a pacifier to top it off)
• Alicia Keys stepped fresh off the set of the new Matrix movie.
• Nelly Furtado was a stunning blond coke whore.
• Rihanna super sexy in tight fighting pink number.
• Eve had a bad weave I think but her dress was hot.
• Mary J. was purely hood chic.
• Nicole Scherzinger smoking hot, really great performer (she actually sang and dance)
• Lil Wayne had a nice on liner “can’t pronounce her last name so it should be mine.”
• Common is completely uncommon and looked like Hollywood royalty.
• Shia Lebeouf was stylish and debonair.
• Gym Class Heroes looked the same they stayed true their style
• Jennifer Hudson dress was very flattering but she should’ve gave Kelly Rowland her wig back.
• Ludacris looked like an original gangsta, very trendy suit and his haircut was snazzy.
• Paris Hilton looked like her mom.
• Kanye had the Tux look—it was simple—I guess it worked.
• Neyo looked like the hamburglar/pirate.
• Ceelo wore a tablecloth.
• Beyonce was Helen of Troy with a snatchback [Tacky Tina has struck again]


Smoking Gun: Bullets on THE SHOW
• Britney Spears was an absolute disappointment. I’m not sure what was going on but I could tell she wasn’t feeling it. She didn’t seem to care. She was the worst part of her own performance. I will say her dancers, the pole dancers, lights, and set design were all incredible and this could have been a smash, sadly it wasn’t.
• Sarah Silverman is simply a bitch.
• The rest of the show was a sloppy mess.
• Poor transitions and over too much chaos.
• Chris Brown’s performance was a smash (even though him not attempting to sing was troubling). He did well the only thing I didn’t like was his little MJ bit—I think this obsession with Michael Jackson is over-rated and I’ve seen too many people do that Billie Jean routine.

the movement.
