DJ Ragz & Unown Unveil Second Mouth-watering Course In Food-themed Beat Tape Series with BURGERS & SLIDERS (Common Good Records)



Coast-to-coast DJ super-duo Brian Ragonese & Richard Patterson have returned with their second food-themed collaborative project as DJ Ragz & Unown. Burgers & Sliders is, of course, the second all-you-can-eat instrumental follow-up to Unown & Ragz's 2018 Common Good Records release, Pasta & Wings. "It's a take on the LA burger scene capturing a moment of time from the golden era of G-Funk Rap. We had a blast recording this project!" DJ Ragz writes on his YouTube channel, along with the juicy video for "Plump At All The Time$." Burgers & Sliders finds the duo back in their respective kitchens, with Unown handling the beat duties on his coveted MPC and DJ Ragz meticulously cutting up the meat of these beats on his turntables. DJ Ragz is a world-renown event DJ, instructor, seasoned studio musician, and producer in his own right, who was born and raised Roseville, California and currently resides in the Northern Virginia/DC area. Unown, on the other hand, is an esteemed producer, engineer, and globe-trotting DJ travelling from city-to-city as part of Oddissee's in-house/live band, GOOD COMPNY. Both DJ Ragz & unOwn are, actually, part of DC/VA/NC-based Hip-Hop crew Jazz Addixx/Soul Expansion, along with Chicago-bred MC MUDD. 🍔


Essentially, building off similar themes tasted... I mean, tested out on Pasta & Wings, Unown & DJ Ragz fill each of their 12 courses on Burgers & Sliders with plenty of 90's West Coast G-Funk/Boom-Bap and juicy tidbits concerning their favorite cuts of beef. Each 6-course side is labelled either "BURGERS" or "SLIDERS" and driving the fast food-evoking theme home, each limited edition Burgers & Sliders cassette or CD comes packaged in "H A M B U R G E R" or "C H E E S E B U R G E R" foil wrappers, strangely similar to what you might find at your favorite road-side burger joint. While they're almost completely SOLD OUT of beef-based packages at Los Angeles imprint, Common Good Records, DJ Ragz & Unown's Burgers & Sliders cassettes are currently available from FatBeats in The States and will become available at HHV across Europe starting Friday, April, 26, 2019, while supplies last. Get 'em while you can because, rest assured, once they're gone, they're gone for good; however, unlimited quantities of Burgers & Sliders are available digitally at Common Good Records for less than the price of a Burger, Drink & Fry Combo from Five Guys! While it probably isn't exactly vegan-friendly, I would strongly recommend Burgers & Sliders to anyone who enjoys burgers, sliders, dusty Hip-Hop, and mouth-watering beats—it's even kid-friendly for your pint-sized Hip-Hop heads!

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of...

Jet Planes, Islands, Tigers On a Gold Leash: Lorde - "Royals" (The Weeknd Remixo)

I think it's pretty safe to say that The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye) comfortably teeters the fine line between glitched-out smooth New Age R&B and hard-hitting Hip-Hop ; while the same could arguably be said for 16-year-old New Zealand new-comer, Lorde . Her break-out single "Royals" 1/2 jokingly shouts out semi-common bravado-worthy shit like: diamonds, "gold teeth, Grey Goose ... Cadillacs, Cristal, Maybach ... jet planes, islands, [and] tigers on a gold leash." But now, the Lorde/Weeknd connection has been further solidified, as Tesfaye recently managed to conjure up and release his own "Royals" remix. My beautiful girlfriend said earlier, and I paraphrase, that it "makes her wanna dance lol and she could [likely] hear this remix in a future movie!" Following the wide-spread release of her first 2 EP's (Love Club & Tennis Court) , Universal Republic plans to unleash Lorde 's proper debut album, Pure Heroine between ...

Pop Artist & Surfer Chronicle Intriguing Ex-Pornstar In "SASHA GREY."

Seemingly made to co-exist as thought-provoking companion pieces... "LINDSAY LOHAN" directors Richard Phillips & Taylor Steele are back with their most recent Art Presentation, "SASHA GREY." The 90-second short film was shot in early May @ John Lautner Chemosphere House in Los Angeles, CA. Both striking flicks will be shown on a giant floating video screen [ "Commercial Break" ] @ Garage Center for Contemporary Culture in Venice, Italy (June 1-5). "Adult acting chops" aside, Sasha (23) seems very intelligent, captivating, free-spirited, business savvy, well-mannered, charming... and dare I say, "average." And I really think that's exactly what Phillips/Steele were trying to convey throughout the course of the piece; Grey's beauty, public draw, sheer likeability, and honesty will surely take her very far in future endeavors... Solidifying her [updated] image as a true "Pop Culture Figure." * Featured soundtra...
