audioswag.single.7 | Hello | Karmin
The internet sensation recently released their debut album. I can’t say it’s exactly groundbreaking stuff, but a fun listen either way. This is what white girls rapping should sound like. (Looking at you, Kreyshawn.)

audioswag.single.6 | Ride Like That f/ Jeremih | Travis Porter
It’s that ratchet music; you already know what to expect.
(4,671 plays)audioswag.musicvideo.5 | No Church In The Wild f/ Frank Ocean | The Throne
At this point, it’s a given that any music video with Kayne will have some artistic style, whether for better or worse. In this case, there may be no appearances from The Throne, but its still a fairly evocative video on revolt and oppression. The real highlight? That killer chorus by Frank Ocean.
audioswag.single.5 | Amen f/ Drake & Jeremih | Meek Mill
Dreamchasers 2 is still on my playlist, nothing like a good album-quality mixtape. And of course, Amen is the highlight. Rumor has it, it’ll be on Meek’s upcoming album as well. Amen to that.
(2,806 plays)audioswag.musicvideo.4 | Till I Die f/ Big Sean & Wiz Khalifa | Chris Brown
I’m surprised this jawn hasn’t been getting more airplay considering the big features. Anyways, looks like they had a lot of fun with this one. Wiz + Butterfly = Priceless.
audioswag.musicvideo.3 | Daughters | Nas
Nas will always be top 5 in my book. As he gears up for his latest album, he drops the music video for his emotional ode to his daughter.
audioswag.musicvideo.2 | Murder One | 50 Cent
It’s that ish the streets been craving for and it sounds good to me, only issue is that it’s too short. This one’s from his recently dropped mixtape, The Lost Tape.
audioswag.single.4 | Exodus 23:1 f/ The-Dream | Pusha T
You hear that? That’s Pusha firing off gunshots. He’s got plenty on his mind and he’s not afraid to speak it. This has already spawned a diss track from Weezy. More GOOD vs. YMCMB? Competition is good.

Bieber has been hauling in hip-hop heavyweights left and right for his new album, including working with Kanye and Drake. Now, we get the remix for his latest hit, Boyfriend. I gotta say, it’s not bad.

filmswag.poster.1 | The Dark Knight Rises | Christopher Nolan
While I’m really excited for the upcoming finale to the Batman trilogy, most of the movie posters released so far has been subpar at best. This one is definitely my new favorite. Simplicity is key, and in this case, Catwoman’s heel is all it takes.

printswag.manga.3 | C3 | Cost of Deception | Übel Blatt
Köinzell and the rest of the gang return back to the castle of the frontier, just to find the currupt king conspiring with the last two lances of betrayal. Köinzell and some of the soldiers of serving under the court easily defeat the two. During the process, it is revealed, at least according to Köinzell, that the 4 lances of betrayal were actually the only ones to have completed the mission and the 7 heroes ambushed the 4 later and killed them to take the glory for themselves. Köinzell claims he knows this because he is the real Ascheriit and the other lances revealed so far have all be fakes. Now that is what I can a plot twist.
gameswag.boxart.1 | LittleBigPlanet | Double Eleven | Playstation Vita
I’m actually really excited to see how LBP will be translated to the touch-friendly, large screen of the Vita.
printswag.manga.2 | C2 | Blade of Lies | Übel Blatt
Another chapter, another lance of betrayal to defeat. This time around Köinzell takes down Güsstav, the pedophilic and unusually built femme fatale. We also get a look at Ascheriit, the leader of the lances. At this pace, Köinzell is gonna run out of lances to kill pretty soon.
filmswag.trailer.1 | The Great Gatsby | Baz Luhrmann
This trailer has got everybody up in arms, with its usage of vibrant colors and not so 1920s music. Even so, The Great Gatsby is one of my favorite books, and with such an all-star cast, I’m confident they can pull off a good adaptation.
printswag.comic.1 | C1 | The Price of Victory | Earth-2
Ah, good old alternate universes are back in the DC realm. Alternate universes are always really interesting read because it allows the writers to experiment with more radical changes on familiar heroes, such as killing off main characters and other big changes that usually can’t be done with the main universe.
Speaking of killing off, there is definitely plenty of that going on here. Parademons lead by Steppenwolf are ravaging the earth and in a last ditch effort, Batman devises a suicide mission to destroy the parademons. During the fight Batman, Wonder Woman, and Superman are all killed, leaving Earth-2 without a hero. That might have to change as Mercury arrives on Earth to warn a possible Earth-2 Flash about an incoming danger.
