Cinque "Talkin' 2 Myself" ft. Kobe (Track produced by DJ Khalil)

Aight, so a nice lil bit of controversy for ya.

Check the above video for 'Talkin' 2 Myself' from Cinque, with Kobe on the hook. Sound familiar? A certain Mr Mathers used the exact same beat and hook for his most recent album, 'Recovery' (my fave song on the album). How did this happen? I have zero concrete facts, but as we all know, YouTube comments might as well be bond, so check the details...

"No money was ever asked from Cinque for the track, so that is not an issue. A batch of beats were sent to Cinque from Khalil through a mutual friend (No ID) as a favor and Cinque happened to use the track w/ no intention of marketing it or making profit from it, just to further build an online presence and work on a project. Yes Eminem paid for the rights, but that still does nothing to disprove Mr.Mathers used a recycled track that has been floating around for almost 2 yrs, lame."

"in Cinque's defense, he did not steal. The producer (Khalil) provided the track to Cinque himself a full year in advance through mutual connects in the industry. It would be the producer's and label's fault for not fact checking and looking into the record which was out on Youtube since April 5th, 2009."

"Everybody that knows nothing about the industry and how shit works, shut your cock holsters cause you're looking real stupid rite now!!! As far as legally, what can a lawyer prove about this situation except the facts that are already known? Cinque aquired the beat 1yr to 1 1/2yrs ago thru some of the peeps he knows in the industry, recorded a song and then shot a video!!! One year or so later, the same instrumental was sold to Eminem!!! How is that Cinques fault? Everybody S.T.F.U."

Model Feature - Jenafer Lynn Williams

It's been a minute since our last model feature. My apologies, we been slackin'.

This is the first time we've ever invited a model back for a second chat and a fresh bunch of pics; so Miss Jena is a special one. Our favourite American residing Down Under stopped by for another chat, and delivered a brand new smokin' set of flicks exclusively for the readers of TheMovementFam.com...

Cee: Hey Jena, it's been over a year since we saw you last. What's been happening?
Jena: Still in Australia..(sigh)!

Cee: What sort of shoots have you been doing recently?
Jena: Alot of lingerie work...soon to be moving into swimwear, I hope, if I can stay in shape.

Cee: Have you managed to work with any of the photographers you mentioned last time?
Jena: I doubt that would ever happen, this is just a paycheck for me, nothing more.

Cee: You were doing yoga and lingerie modelling, have you been doing much of that? Are you still enjoying that line of work?
Jena: Still doing all of that, that's the only thing I do enjoy doing. Lingerie is fun! And I keep all of it, for all you single men...

Cee: Tell us about the new photos we have here.
Jena: It's just a mix of my favorites. All genres. But I will let you in on a secret that I will be doing a very well known American Mag that most of you wouldn't think I would do...an AUS version..but still the same mag. You are in for a bare all treat :D

Cee: Have you had any memorable experiences with your modelling in the past year?
Jena: Recently doing my 2nd shoot with Zoo...always a blast with their crew. Memorable almost baring all in front of everyone!

Cee: I heard word that you might be trying out for the Dallas Desire in the Lingerie Football League...
Jena: ha ha ha..did you? Well, I do plan on trying out and that's all I can do. Would you come watch me? I would surely NOT play nice!

Cee: So you're an American model living in Australia. Has the experience out here been different from your experiences at home?
Jena: Besides everyone hating me, and the slang...not really. I love Australia but I am ready to be home. I miss the gentlemen.

Cee: You're heading back to the US later this year; do you plan to continue the modelling?
Jena: I don't think so. Unless I need money. I want to focus on my charity work.

Cee: What's next for you?
Jena: A year volunteering in Tanzania..I hope!

Cee: You're the first model we've had back for a second time around, so thank you! :)
Jena: WOW..I don't know who to thank..LOL. Anything for the Movement Fam. I love you guys. xx

B.o.B. – Airplanes (Ft. Hayley Williams) (video)

Since I'm so far out of the mainstream music/news loop (I don't read the newspaper, watch TV or listen to radio at all), I had no idea this joint was a single. I fucking love it, definitely one of the hooks of the year. So I'm happy to know it has a video, finally.

Oh and Aussies, B.o.B. is touring in July, grab tickets on Monday!

360 - The Making of 'Take Off' (video)

Big 6 Dog done made a video of him and Uncle Kaelyn making their rap song, 'Take Off'. Cool shit, cunts.

Mark Ronson & The Business INTL - Bang Bang Bang (video)

I love Mark Ronson. Dude has been extremely consistent over the years, involved with incredible albums from Amy Winehouse, Daniel Merriweather, Adele and of course his own opuses.

So this new joint, 'Bang Bang Bang', is on some left field shit. It's like some 80s synth pop; a total 180 from his previous work. For me, it just doesn't really work. Q-Tip makes an appearance, which is cool, but I much prefer Ronson on his soul shit. I guess that sorta stuff doesn't really sell (Merriweather's album was criminally ignored outside of the UK), so I guess he has to roll with the trends. Check it out anyway.

What Cee be on... The Temper Trap (again)

So all the indie heads I tell about The Temper Trap seem to bag 'em. Apparently they've been getting airplay on commercial radio and are now 'sellouts'. OK. For once, I'm glad I know fuck all about the politics of a genre and just simply enjoy the music, something I've never really been able to do with Hip Hop (for the most part).

So here's the video for their latest single, and my favourite song off their album 'Conditions', 'Fader'. Amazing. Mainstream or not, shit is dope.

CandleSpit & Red Eye - In Da Club (Le Croissant) (video)

So the big homie Livin' Poetry (of The Understudies crew) got at me today with the dope ass video for his new group, Candlespit Collective with JB Nimble.

Po' is a fuckin' beast, and everything I've heard from JB is just as dope. These cats are finna be something to watch out for.

Check out the above video for 'In Da Club (Le Croissant)' with Redeye, and roll through their MySpace and Facebook pages for more videos and music. Bang.

Rhymefest - "Prosperity" (video)

It feels like I've posted a new Rhymefest video every other day, and I probably have.

This latest one, Prosperity, is also from El Che. Really dope message in this joint about the hypocrisy of evangelists and religion in general. Dude must be doing a video for every joint, and if that's the case, fucking great idea bro. Everything I've heard thus far is dope, so keep em rolling...

Junior Reid Ft. Cassidy – I'm So Crazy (video)

I fucks with Junior Reid. Dude is crazy. This joint isn't amazing but Cassidy kinda works, and Mr Reid's infectious vocal tone gets ya, even when he ain't at his catchiest. Weeeeeeerd.

Reality feat. Skyzoo - Temptress [Directed by Court Dunn]

Y'all would have seen the earlier vids from Restless Films' Court Dunn and his One Shot series on TheMovementFam.com.

We're big fans of Court's stuff, and this latest video doesn't disappoint.

The joint is called 'Temptress', which is from Reality and features Skyzoo, however I don't know a lot about Reality as there is no other MC on the joint, so I'm assuming he's the producer. Either way, the joint is hot, video is dope, check it out.

Jay-Z Brings Out Kanye West At The Isle of Wight Festival (video)

This song is a total stadium anthem. Beat is ridic, hook is catchy as hell, and it's clear how easily Jay controls the crowd with this one. The stroke of genius was to bring Mr West out with no announcement; element of surprise. A very powerful performance. Word life.

What Cee be on... British India

I am absolutely loving Aussie rock right now. So many brilliant bands coming out of this country, it's mad impressive, particularly for someone like myself who has only recently gotten into the scene.

So I went and caught British India at the Corner Hotel last night, the first of two shows for the launch of their latest album, Avalanche. Openers City Riots, hailing from Adelaide, were really great, however this was the first show I've ever seen people too scared to be up front for. Really strange considering how solid their music was.

Big Scary were up next, a two piece (male singer/guitarist/keys, female drummer) who made a shitload of noise. Awesome stuff.

There was a solid gap between Big Scary and British India, and the mob was getting restless. I'd never been to a gig like this before, so me and my mate were right up front ready to go. Chants of 'Bri-tish, Bri-tish!' were hollered from the gaping mouths of the beer-swilling suburban hooligans, and this should have indicated what was to come.

Fuck I was shocked. I'd heard of 'slam pits' before but fuck me, up close, shit is hectic. If this happened at a Hip Hop gig, full scale riots would break out and it'd get mighty messy. But not here. The sweaty meatheads were happy to throw each other around as hard as they could, with damn near everyone around me screaming the words to every song. I was entranced; until some short ass broad knocked my camera out of my hand, which was duly stomped upon and the lens knocked firmly out of place.

That kinda ruined it for me, but I tried to put it out of my mind and enjoy the rest of the show. The boys were intense the whole time, the crowd loved it, so much energy. I really learned a lot about stage presentation from these fellas. I'd love to go again, but next time I'll stay far back from said pit of slam.

Check out the videos for the two singles from the album below.

Beneath The Satellites

Vanilla

Rhymefest - "T.M.S." (video)

Aight, so we just hit y'all with one Rhymefest video this week, and then you turn around and we smack ya in the head with another one, like BAM! Fuck yeah. Watch the crap outta this shit.

El Che is out now, apparently. Cop that.

Nat-2 x WuWear - the WuTang Brand bookbag 2.0

We don't usually post too much stuff about gear and whatnot on here, but I caught this today and it looks pretty sweet. Feelin' the oversized zipper, dunno about the thongs (flip flops) though.

Jamie Lidell Music Video Marathon

Y'all might know that I been on Mr Lidell's nuts for a hot minute. Dude put on a killer show in Melbourne a few months back, and his latest album, 'Compass', is a gem.

So I didn't realise that he already dropped two music videos from the album. The first one, The Ring, is a bit of a strange one, with dude writhing around on the beach making all sorts of faces.

Next, 'I Wanna Be Your Telephone', is much more straight down the line, for such a weird song.

I also threw in the video for 'Another Day' from his last album, 'Jim', as I'd never seen it before and it's an amazing song.

The Ring (From 'Compass')

I Wanna Be Your Telephone (From 'Compass')

Another Day (From 'Jim')

Lil Wayne's greatest verse ever?

So we all know Drake is a fan of blowing things out of proportion. Nicki Minaj's skills (oh check out Lil Kim's Twitter page, she goes IN on Nicki, Puffy and Drake), Jay dropping his 'greatest verse ever' on their collab 'Light Up'...and now it's the incarcerated Lil Wayne who apparently dropped his 'greatest verse ever' over the phone from Rikers Island to the same 'Light Up' joint. Check the video. Sound quality is shit, it's from a recent UStream Drizzy did to promote the album. I hear he's going to drop a full quality version soon, so stay tuned for that...

A-Diction + Syntax + Whisper on Top Billin 3RRR (download + video)

Y'all might be familiar with the homies Whisper and A-Diction from various mentions on TheMovementFam.com, but alongside their boy Syntax, these fellas came together (pause) for a joint mixtape, In Good Company. Bang.

Check the official word on the project:

"Together the four musicians have created a bond that is reminiscent of some of the most note worthy groups in hip hop history, and featuring a stellar production line up consisting of M-Phazes, Mules (Choose Mics, Hyjak & Torcha), Ciecmate, Jsquared, Lewis One, ATP (Beatkamp Muzik) and Whisper, ‘In Good Company’ will do more than wet the whistles of the eager hip hop loving market, it will forge itself as the standard for all collaborative projects for years to come."

So while you're waiting for In Good Company to download, scroll up and check the fellas recent spot on 3RRR's Top Billin' show as they murder some mics.

Eminem - Not Afraid (video)

Eminem - Not Afraid from DomS on Vimeo.

I think this dropped the other day but I missed it. So the album leaks around the same day as the video for the first single drops. Coinkidinks? These days, I think not.

Once again, still vibin' off Em's album so don't really wanna stop it to watch this one just yet. Will jump back on it in a sec, but as with 'Fest, I'm sure it's the shiznit.

Rhymefest feat Phonte - Say Wassup (video)

Rhymefest has been taumbout this album for fucking ever. Looks like it's nearly here. Check the video for the first single, Say Wassup, featuring my favourite MC, Phonte. Yeah, that's right, I said 'favourite MC'.

Gotta be honest; I haven't watched this yet coz I just got the Eminem leak, and kinda buggin' off of that. I'm sure it's ill though.

Ras Kass and Royce Da 5'9" - Attitudes 2012 (video)

The big homie Ras Kass done did it again. This cut, 'Attitudes 2012', is produced by Sick Jacken and features Royce Da 5'9".

Not much else you can really say about this. Beat is bananas, both Ras and Royce come with it as expected - just fucking dope music. Video is cool. Mad simple, kinda cut together from various images and random videos and whatnot, but it works.

Cop this shit.
