futurejournalismproject: @boonepickens just stunted on me heavy. Via Gizmodo: There has never before been a point in history when a young black guy rich off of Canadian soap operas and luxury super-rap could exchange words with a quasi-eccentric super-rich octogenarian who loves wind power.

deephunk: Heads up, NYC.  Sunday, May 27, 2012. Memorial Day Weekend. The flyer says it all. This is happening ONE NIGHT and ONE NIGHT ONLY. No cover.  I’m your host.  DJ Brainchild on the wheels.  If you’re comin’ thru, drop us a note on the Facebook invite page.  And to get you ready, stream the mix that inspired the party (and download it here).  I predict greatness for this special night. And hangovers / sore feet for Monday morning.  You comin’ thru? VA Reppin.  This could be dope.
