Luke Sick & G-Pek Reunite for DANKSLOB / DAMAGED GOODS Split EP Follow-up DANKSLOB II & III Cassette (Megakut Records)



DANKSLOB is a mega-mix style Hip-Hop duo consisting of emcee and multi-instrumentalist Luke Sick and Gurp City affiliated producer G-Pek. Their first release was one 13-minute side of a 2014 digi-split with J-Eazy & Brycon simply entitled DANKSLOB / DAMAGED GOODS EP. Now, nearly five years later, G-Pek & Luke Sick have finally returned with their DANKSLOB II & III double-EP released on California-based imprint, Megakut Records. When asked to tell us a bit more about DANKSLOB II & III, G-Pek (@gpekbeats) stated: "Basically, me and Luke, we're making songs. They were all on some dirthead after the party is over sh*t and we were watching The Killing of a Chinese Bookie (1976) that sh*t really spawned DANKSLOB and we just keep going... we just gurp [drink/smoke?] and record" on Twitter. If necessary, I suggest looking up both "dirthead" and "gurp" on UrbanDictionary.com—don't worry, I had to, too!—for further clarification on the terminology within G-Pek's DANKSLOB II & III statement.


Additionally, when a fan on Facebook asked Mega Kut to "describe in words what [DANKSLOB II & III] sounds like," label head and emcee Luke Sick replied: "After WrestleMania standing in the carport with the remote still in your hand smoking roaches pinched in vice-grips, while your neighbor installs two 15's in the trunk of his '89 Jetta... It's a specific vibe." Each "side" of DANKSLOB II & III consist of six tracks and it seems as though DANKSLOB IV will be coming fairly soon, as well; "we hope to record DANKSLOB IV in the near future and then re-release all four on double-12" vinyl. Thanks for your support, puff tuff!" DANKSLOB II & III both feature beats from G-Pek and vocals from Luke Sick (& Eddie K on "The Aroma of the Blunts") with mixing by Luke Sick and mastering by Dan Randall for Mammoth Sound Mastering. DANKSLOB II & III is currently available to purchase digitally on ME gA Kut Records' Bandcamp page, as well as 100 limited edition translucent green cassettes and a super-limited edition DANKSLOB II & III + Born Illness CD Bundle Pack with DJ Raw B.

"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...
