Boogieman Dela Joins Forces with Philly Producer Rolled Gold for Sample-less Broken Watch 02: Future Currents EP (Sensi Starr Records)



Boogieman Dela is a charismatic singer and and rapper hailing from Philly harnassing a unique sound "with a great balance between smooth and gritty and between Boom-Bap, Soul, and Trap sounds." For his latest release, Broken Watch 02: Future Currents EP, Boogieman has joined forces with fellow Philadelphian, multi-faceted producer, and The Witzard regular Rolled Gold. Future Currents is the second volume in a planned 4-EP series, which will be slowly rolled out over time; 2017's Broken Watch 01: My Time EP was produced by Deet The Beat Machine and as you can see, each cover is one quarter of a larger image that's gradually, begun to piece itself together with each new release. "Boogie & Rolled met only about six months ago and both having a strong, ambitious drive, they wasted no time in creating and developing these songs, mostly at Rolled's home studio," Rolled Gold stated within an emailed press statement. Boogieman Dela has shared the stage with many artists touring through Philadelphia including, but not limited to, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, DJ Premier, GZA, Margel The Sophant, Mobb Deep, and The Pharcyde.


In addition to collaborating on their Broken Watch 02: Future Currents EP, Boogieman Dela & Rolled Gold have assembled a full band to play live shows with in and around Philly. Boogieman Dela & Rolled Gold's unnamed band recently played a Broken Watch 02: Future Currents release party/show at Warehouse On Watts AKA W.O.W. this past Sunday, April 22nd. Boogieman Dela's live band for the W.O.W. Broken Watch 02 set included Margel The Sophant on keys, Harry Metz (Rolled Gold) on drums, and his cousin Ray Bailey on upright bass with sultry back-up vocals provided by Mouré & JayMarie. Boogieman Dela & Rolled Gold's Broken Watch 02: Future Currents EP is recommended for fans of Anderson .Paak & The Free Nationals, TDE crooner SiR, Kanye, D'Angelo & The Vanguard, The Roots, Nxworries, and of course, any classic Soul & Hip-Hop.

[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

"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
