UncleRussie Presents: Bulma3 & TrunksEP2 [Album Preview] Featuring Benjamin Banger, Action Bastard, Malcolm Maximillion & eu-IV


Just about a year ago, John "Jumbled" Bachman helped link me up with a fellow Baltimore-based producer buddy of his, Timothy "Tim" Chester AKA UncleRussie (@PeaceRussie.) Right around the time Tim. & I first met, he was preparing to release his next project, Trunks EP. which was a 14-track audiophonic examination of Trunks Brief - Past, Present, & Future(?) from Dragon Ball Z. Now, while I'll readily admit, I'm far from a die-hard Dragon Ball Z fan, it's been pretty interesting to learn about the series through a medium I'm extremely familiar with: Hip-Hop! For Trunks EP. UncleRussie recruited a who's-who of The East Coast/Baltimore's finest emcees, singers, and producers to help convey his vision, such as: Benjamin Banger, Dot-Com Intelligence, Swellthy, Action Bastard, TEK.LUN, ONLY, Jumbled, and Drew Scott. Many of you may recognize UncleRussie's name from his submission(s) to The Witzard's Andy Cooper "THE PERFECT DEFINITION" Remix Comp.—Tim. actually, sent in TWO "Perfect Definition" remixes!—earlier this year, on the heels of Rocafort Records' the layered effect. Now, UncleRussie has effectively returned with a 12-track preview of his next, not one, but two projects: Bulma3 & TrunksEP2 [Album Preview], which will both be released this Fall/Winter.


Bulma3 & TrunksEP2 will each feature roughly 13-15 tracks each, maybe, more depending on each album's final sequences; UncleRussie has, again, recruited a who's-who of featured producers for the releases, including (so far) Benjamin Banger, Action Bastard, Malcolm Maximillion, and eu-IV, as well as addition still-to-be-determined guests. "The [Album Preview] for Bulma3 & TrunksEP2 lends itself as a snapshot of what both albums will sound like; different timelines and scenarios from the Dragon Ball series will be highlighted throughout," UncleRussie charismatically explained to The Witzard. "Though, Bulma3 will attempt to shine a light on the different periods in which Bulma, the character and primary inspiration of The Bulma Tape project, has adapted throughout the series," he continued. It's safe to say, Russie. has inadvertently created his own unique sub-genre of Hip-Hop, which I would even go as far as to label "Dragon Ball Hip-Hop" or "Anime Rap." UncleRussie's Bulma3 & TrunksEP2 [Album Preview] is now streaming on Soundcloud and both albums should be expected before year's end. Also, as a BONUS, I've included UncleRussie's Kanye West Feat. Mos Def & Freeway | "Two Words" | (Bulma2 Mix) below, which blends together The College Dropout stand-out and "The Cracked Seal." from The Bulma Tape: Side B.

[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
