Back together after a brief hiatus, Chicago-based trio The Gent$ (Pugs Atomz, Ill Legit and Wes Restless) have linked up with online tastemakers DJBooth.net to release their sophomore street album, High Profile.

This 12-song collection is filled with sophisticated tales of success, women and the nightlife. Featured on the project are DJBooth-premiered, reader-approved leaks “Awards Tour,” “Ice Cream” and “Snake Skin Tie.”

In addition to production by group member Wes Restless, High Profile includes beats by DJ Vadim, Vanysh, Simple X, Anton Genius and more. The Windy City’s own Awdazcate makes the sole guest appearance.

Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (Trailer)!!!

iPhone 4!!!!!!!!!!!

What's new
• Front-facing video chat camera
• Improved regular back-camera (the lens is quite noticeably larger than the iPhone 3GS)
• Camera flash
• Micro-SIM instead of standard SIM (like the iPad)
• Improved display. It's unclear if it's the 960x640 display thrown around before—it certainly looks like it, with the "Connect to iTunes" screen displaying much higher resolution than on a 3GS.
• What looks to be a secondary mic for noise cancellation, at the top, next to the headphone jack
• Split buttons for volume
• Power, mute, and volume buttons are all metallic

What's changed
• The back is entirely flat, made of either glass (more likely) or ceramic or shiny plastic in order for the cell signal to poke through. Tapping on the back makes a more hollow and higher pitched sound compared to tapping on the glass on the front/screen, but that could just be the orientation of components inside making for a different sound
• An aluminum border going completely around the outside
• Slightly smaller screen than the 3GS (but seemingly higher resolution)
• Everything is more squared off
• 3 grams heavier
• 16% Larger battery
• Internals components are shrunken, miniaturized and reduced to make room for the larger battery

The Gent$ - Award Tour!!!

Emcees Pugs Atomz and Ill Legit and singer Wes Restless paint a vivid lyrical portrait of Awrad night… as beatsmith Vanysh rolls out the red carpet with an appropriately exultant blend of sampled brass and soulful backing vocals. Here’s hoping that the trio’s latest mixtape, the DJBooth.net-sponsored High Profile, brings them closer to the lofty dreams described here.

SoulKlap - iOweYou!!!

Hello world. This is SoulKlap. Some of you may have heard of me, some of you have not. I'm an MC and producer from Cleveland, Ohio. This Summer, SoulEssential Recordings and The Higher Plane are teaming up to bring to you my new mixtape, Klapisms Vol. 1: A Parallax. The first single, "iOweYou," is my introduction/reintroduction to you, the fans! Whether you have heard my previous work (Soul-Xploitation, The Quan, Soulful Gangster) or never heard any of my music, you will love it. This project is for the dreamer that is too afraid to leap. The inner "Max" (see "Where The Wild Things Are") that dwells in all of us. I finally decided to stop being afraid to dream, and to let my imaginations run wild. The question should never be "Why?" It should be "Why not?" Buckle up and get ready to take a musical journey...Let's go!

Check out the "Making Of iOweYou"...


SoulKlap will be droppin' his mixtape Klapisms Vol. 1: A Parallax in June!!!
