Haven’t heard too much from Justin yet, but I did hear this new track from him called “Back To You.”  For some reason, this sounded something like Jay Sean would do.  I don’t fully believe either him or the girl in the video know what “love” actually is, but that’s just me speaking my mind.  Either way, its a nice song. -SHIFT

This is an interesting video by an artists I just stumbled upon today.  I like the VHS/retro look the video was shot/edited in.  Classic rapid-fire lyricism over a funky beat.  Is this a Blackalicious beat?  Or is this beat original?  What do you think of his cardboard mic? -SHIFT
