Mega Ran & iLL-Omega Are "GOING TO THE GARDEN" for Ring of Honor & New Japan Pro Wrestling (G1 SuperCard Show 2019)

Let's just go ahead and deem this what it's organically become already: it's unofficially "Official" WrestleMania 35/WWE Monday Night RAW Week here at The Witzard!!! So, to continue the frantic festivities, we have a new track from wrestling aficionado and sharp-tongued Philly-based emcee Mega Ran! "GOING TO THE GARDEN" was commissioned by Ring of Honor (ROH) and produced by frequent Ray Strife collaborator iLL-Omega, whom Ran initially got in touch with through his friend Eric at NERDS Clothing. "It was hard, fast-paced, and unlike anything I'd ever done before. I wanted to flex some chops and rap a little faster than I normally would on it, to fully capture the excitement of the moment," Mega Ran said on his approach to iLL-Omega's beat for "GOING TO THE GARDEN." Mega Ran has previously released, at least, three wrestling-themed/Wrestle Rap albums between 2016-18: Mat Mania: The Album & Mat Mania: The Revenge with producer Lynx Kinetic, and most recently, Mat Mania: Battle Royale.

Mega Ran also, hosts a weekly Mat Mania Podcast along with co-hosts Teek Hall, The Neoecks & Roknowledge featuring regular discussions on "Classic Pro Wrestling History, WWE PPV wrap-ups, special guests, and unreleased songs from Mega Ran." Anchored by the hashtag #GOINGTOTHEGARDEN and and the chant-worthy refrain "We going to The Garden..." Mega Ran delivered a roaring performance of "GOING TO THE GARDEN" at Madison Square Garden this past Saturday, April 6th, prior to WrestleMania 35. Ran was surrounded by his friends and peers including Westside Gunn, Teek Hall, Emilio Sparks from Wrassle Rap, Eric at NERDS Clothing, and more at the NJPW/ROH G1 SuperCard showcase. Mega Ran & iLL-Omega's "GOING TO THE GARDEN" is now available to stream or download on your digital streaming service of choice.

"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

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

Liberty Bell Cracked In 1/2: Ween - "Freedom of '76" (Gene Ween's Final Send-Off)

Chocolate & Cheese (1994) was one of the first albums I bought with my own money. I was in some sort of BMG Music Club , where you'd buy 5 CD's and then get 10 for "FREE." It was all sent through mail order and you picked the titles from some special booklet. I'm almost positive that Chocolate & Cheese's side boob-baring album cover was what initially drew me in... mind you, I was 12-15 and the zany Ween logo/middle finger CD graphic really didn't hurt either. Honestly, I forget how I really felt about it @ the time, but a few years later, my older cousin Josh told me that Ween were this BIG college "jam band." CKY did some sort pf 93.3 radio takeover to promote their new album and played "Freedom of '76" late that night on air. Needless to say, I re-visited Chocolate & Cheese @ about 20-something this go 'round and I fucking loved it! Ween were really weird, yet talented... almost too talented. I can vaguel
