Kanye West - The College Dropout by Fusion 45 Fusion 45 Presents Paste Magazine’s Album of The Decade #17 What is the fuss about his contradictions? The main difference between him and most hip hop journalists is his money. They’d buy the Benz—so would I, Volvos don’t last as long—and probably the gold too. They’d say anything to get laid. They accept the economic rationale of dealing and dig music of dubious moral value. Yet at the same time they do their bit for racial righteousness and know full well how much they need the “single black female addicted to retail.” On Easter Sunday, some of them even believe in Jesus Christ. But none of them are as clever or as funny as Kanye West, and these days I’m not so sure about Eminem either. West came up as a beatmaster, but his Alicia Keys and Talib Kweli hits are pretty bland, and neither his voice nor his flow could lead anyone into sin. So he’d better conceptualize, and he does. Not only does he create a unique role model, that role model is dangerous—his arguments against education are as market-targeted as other rappers’ arguments for thug life. Don’t do what he says, kids, and don’t do what he does, because you can’t. Just stay in school. Really. I mean it.

Listen Up! Best Music of the Millennium … So Far by Wired: Underwire previous image | next image In a decade fueled by hyperconsumption and paranoia, some musicians stood out by balancing cultural relevance, technological innovation and raw lyrical and sonic power. These artists and their recordings — the best of the millennium so far — significantly upped the ante in their respective genres of rock, pop, hip-hop and beyond (usually by obliterating those labels). These musicians’ beautiful noise will only grow louder as the next decade unfurls. Listen to top tracks by the standard-bearers below, then let us know your choices for the ’00s finest music in the comments section. El-P: Fantastic Damage (2002), I’ll Sleep When You’re Dead (2007) It’s apropos that El-P is pictured above in front of what looks like a lie detector, because he’s rock and hip-hop’s eminent truth-teller. His apocalyptic twin missiles Fantastic Damage and I’ll Sleep When You’re Dead may have flown beneath hip-hop’s hopelessly distracted mainstream, but that’s only because their personal and political pain was too much to bear for hearts and minds that sold their souls to the twin hallucinations of reality TV and the war on terror. Songs on both efforts mashed the political and cultural madness of the decade with sci-fi standouts like Star Trek, THX-1138 and Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer (in “Deep Space 9mm” at right). El-P’s labyrinthine rhymes were backed by beats fed through two Technics, an Ensoniq sampling keyboard, one Vestax mixer, a Korg Chaoss Pad and more comparatively lo-fi recording tech. His profile escalated sharply on I’ll Sleep When You’re Dead, in the form of a kinetic beat upgrade and cameos from Trent Reznor (in “Flyentology” at right), Cat Power and other all-stars. But even that abrasive classic unsettled more soma-sniffing hip-hop heads than it awakened upon its release in 2007. “I’m more interested in saying something that will mean something,” the former Company Flow member told Wired.com. The group’s stunning debut Funcrusher Plus was reissued earlier this year. “My solo work made sense of the inevitable Third World War. Which is why I ended up bringing more of who I was into the picture, and became more influenced by matters of the heart and head.” In the end, it was El-P’s decision to abandon the music industry and form the respected indie label Definitive Jux in 1999, setting the stage for his brilliant bow as the finest hip-hop artist of the ’00s. From its slew of releases from intelligent, talented hip-hop artists like RJD2, Aesop Rock, Mr. Lif and Rob Sonic to team-ups with television tastemakers like Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim, Def Jux turned out some of the most potent artistic work of the ’00s. Through it all, El-P churned out the best hip-hop of our still-new millennium, and raised the stakes for electronic music speaking truth to power and paranoia. Tell a friend.

Jay-Z, Alicia Keys Close VMAs With Ode To New York by ThisizGame There's fashionably late and then there's Jay-Z late. The Brooklyn rapper arrived to the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards in a limousine, casually pulling up to Radio City Music Hall around 11 p.m. Hov was scheduled to close out the show with a performance, and he knocked it out of the park like A-Rod. Wearing his trademark Yankee cap, Jay-Z was joined by fellow New Yorker Alicia Keys to perform the rapper's ode to the Big Apple, "Empire State of Mind." Images of the Bronx Bombers' stadium flashed behind Jay-Z as he rapped. "Yeah, I'm up at Brooklyn, now I'm down in Tribeca," he spit. "Right next to De Niro, but I'll be 'hood forever/ I'm the new Sinatra and since I made it here/ I can make it anywhere, yeah, they love me everywhere." Keys belted out the number from behind her piano as images of Manhattan flashed across the instrument. "In New York/ Concrete jungles where dreams are made of/ There's nothing you can't do," Keys sang. "Now you're in New York/ These streets will make you feel brand new/ The lights will inspire you/ Let's here it for New York, New York, New York." The performance was the first time the two superstars joined forces publicly for "Empire State of Mind," a track from Jay-Z's recently released The Blueprint 3. Jay-Z performed the song on Friday night during his September 11 tribute show, Answer the Call, at Madison Square Garden. But in a night of memorable unplanned moments, including Kanye West interrupting Taylor Swift's acceptance speech to protest in favor of Beyoncé, Lil Mama joined the list of unexpected attendees. As Jay-Z and Keys brought the song to a close, the "Lip Gloss" rapper and "America's Best Dance Crew" judge joined them onstage. The Brooklyn native's appearance was unscheduled, but she inserted herself among the music titans as if it were planned. As the legendary rapper and singer posed, Lil Mama did her best B-girl stance beside them. Jay-Z - New Music - More Music Videos Read full story
