Sometimes you just gotta say “F*CK YOU!” [Official Music Video]

Cee-Lo Green did.
Still hung up on your ex-girl? See some guy driving around town with the girl you love? Tell him to f*ck off? Or better, just post this on his Facebook wall or blare it in your car while you’re idling at a red light beside his red Ferrari.
Cee-Lo has collaborated with Diddy, Outkast, [...]

#MusicMonday: Power Freestyle – Will Steep @TGCHU

“I fucking love this song” is what I said to Will last week when he first played me this song and I could finally contain my laughter. We’re always honoured to have a track made specially for us, and we welcome any artist out there to do the same. Since we last published something about [...]

#MusicMonday – Zeds Dead Baby! @WhosZed

We here at LDU did some very serious soul searching over the past week and asked ourselves how we haven’t possibly featured Zeds Dead in our #MusicMonday feature. So while reading this post, keep in mind that I’m not exactly putting you on to anything new. By now, these guys have taken over the Toronto [...]

This gives TGIF a WHOLE new meaning. Thank youuuuuuuuuuuu G.O.O.D. Friday tracks!

Remembering Aaliyah… Nine Years Later

On August 25th, 2001, singer/actress Aaliyah died in a plane crash after filming a music video for Rock The Boat in the Bahamas. She was only 22.
Aaliyah (nee Aaliyah Dana Haughton) born in Brooklyn, New York and raised in Detroit, Michigan, had a budding career, with a biopic in the works when the world lost [...]

Drake feat. Lil’ Wayne: Miss Me [Official Video]

When it comes to music videos, I feel as though Drake is just trying TOO hard. It kind of makes me angry…With some overstimulating visuals for a pretty chill track, and a random ass intro to boot, I’m pissed. And seeing as how it’s 5 am, I just got home from the club, and I’m [...]

Ajani Cinema: Stupid People [Awesome Video]

I first saw this video sometime last week and I was absolutely blown away. Ajani is an old friend from the old country UWO and the dude is one of the most talented visual artists I’ve ever seen. He’s a seasoned photographer, with a number of amazing photo sets including a dope hip-hop project, and [...]

#Music Monday: Mac & Spencer [Audio]

#MusicMonday: Anna Cyzon Is One Badass Blonde! [Video]

Some of you are well aware who Anna Cyzon is, some of you have no idea how to handle the C-Y-Z combo in her very Polish last name (pronnounced size-on), and others still should know who she is, but have forgotten due to over consumption of alcohol over the years or some other unidentified side [...]

Faith: K-os feat. Drake [Audio + Mixtape Download]

True or False…
Drake has put Toronto on the “map” when it comes to hip-hop.
Everyone has a different opinion, but I personally feel it takes more than just one artist to represent a city. Chicago has Kanye, Common and Lupe Fiasco. Miami has Rick Ross and …Pitbull? L.A. has Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Tupac, Ice Cube [...]

Eminem feat. Rihanna: Love The Way You Lie [Official Video]

With Recovery recently released, people have been freaking out over the return of the one they call Slim Shady. There is no arguing he is one of the greatest rappers of all time, however I’m not going to lie, Recovery wasn’t quite the gem I hoped it would be. With all the hype on Eminem’s [...]

Fall In Love – Estelle feat. Nas [Music Video]

If you haven’t already heard Estelle’s new single, Fall In Love, the British diva is back with another summer friendly club hit. There is no denying she can sing, and I’m a big fan of her music, however I’m not really convinced with this single. Sure it’s a solid song, but over a year has [...]

#MusicMonday: The TapeDeckBros [Bikinis+Boxheads Video]

Ash Ainsworth and Chris Sanakidis first joined forces in the rock band Animal Clinic in the mid 2000′s. During this time their interest in electronic music began to manifest. As Chris dabbled in mixing tracks, Ash began to produce score material for television and video games. As the members of Animal [...]

#MusicMonday – Love Thy Brother

Anybody who makes a point of frequenting Hype Machine on a daily basis should by now have heard of DJ duo Love Thy Brother. Coming out of Montreal, these guys have been killing shows alongside some of the biggest names in the electronic scene, and have been releasing new music constantly. So much in fact, [...]

Canadian Musical Sensation Mac Graham Releases His New Album, “Midnight”

Last night London, Ontario native and rising Canadian musical sensation Mac Graham performed at his London CD Release Party at Norma Jeans. His vocals and style have been related to the likes of Justin Timberlake and the late Michael Jackson, and last night he certainly lived up to those claims.  Some of the highlight [...]

#MusicMonday: The Girls Can Hear Us @TGCHU

I had the opportunity to meet with Will of the The Girls Can Hear last week to discuss the history of TGCHU and the future of their music. These guys have already performed internationally and have received rave reviews on HypeM,  Soundcloud and the interweb at large. What’s more is that they’re our people. Will [...]

Support The Canadian Hero Fund: Highway of Heroes [The Trews]

There are many conflicting opinions on the current war in Afghanistan.  Some support a Canadian presence there, while others believe we have no place in that country.  Regardless of your opinion of the subject, we can all agree that these soldiers are putting themselves in harms way because their country asked them to.  Not everyone [...]

You’re Sexy! You’re Cute! Take Off Your Riot Suit! [Real Talk G20 Remix]

We all knew it was only a matter of time before somebody did this, but YES there is in fact a remix to the epic G20 protest chant “You’re Sexy! You’re Cute! Take off your riot suit!” (see original video below) and I’m damn happy it’s one of Torona’s own DJ’s, Real Talk, that put [...]

Oh Canada, Please [Video Compilation]

I’ve actually been meaning to put Canada, Please on this site for a long time ago, and what better time to do it than Canada Day? UWO grad and long time friend of LDU, Andrew Gunadie has been cranking out hilariously ridiculous videos (and fighting web racism) for as long as I’ve been making inflammatory [...]

Katy Perry: California Gurls [Video]

So I slipped up a bit and haven’t managed to get this video up until now. I mean, I’m only a week behind but in that time, the video has already had nearly 8 million views on youtube. I don’t know what it is about this track, but bitches go crazy to this shit. I [...]

Snoop Dogg: Oh Sookie (True Blood Tribute) [Video]

This one is for all my True Blood fans out there. I’m having difficulty understanding how this came to be, but I can say that I’m kind of pleased it happened. What Snoop Dogg and True Blood have to do with each other, but in this video it seems Snoop has a bone to pick [...]

2010 BET Awards Recap!

For those of you who didn’t know, the 2010 BET awards were last night, celebrating the best of well….Black Entertainment! I’m not going to lie…I used to watch BET. Before AJ & Free got replaced on 106 & Park…Before Jin the Freestyle Friday Champion’s career belly flopped faster than the fat kid at the public [...]

#MusicMonday – Kelly Rowland

For this week’s #MusicMonday, I’m breaking the mold a bit and examining an artist we all know in some way. When I asked people about Kelly Rowland some people remembered her from her song “Dilemna” which featured Nelly and portrayed basically everything wrong with the world of music at the time, while others simply remember [...]

Drake Performs You Know You Know Acapella [Video]

Now this is dope.

Eminem Performs Won’t Back Down & Renegade!

I’ve been debating for a few days whether or not I should post an album review for Eminem‘s new LP “Recovery.” I thought I should because I feel that my opinion is more important than most people’s, however I didn’t want to make any enemies on this one so I’m going to bite my tongue [...]

Golden Gloves: The Mensch [Audio]

Anybody who claims to love electronic music in Toronto should by now be more than familiar with DJ duo,
The Golden Gloves. Besides just being all around wicked people to throw down with, they rock a crowd like
no other and are equally dangerous in the studio where they hide out during day light hours. Having played
shows [...]

The Roots: How I Got Over [Music Video]

While everyone has been throwing up #TML tweets all week, people seem to be overlooking the fact that The Roots are about to drop their 11th studio album next week entitled How I Got Over. Contrary to my usual self, I intend no hate here when I say that dropping a debut album is dope [...]

LRS’s Wool Sweaters On A Summer Day Mix Show: When TIME Thursday Ain’t Enough

DJ LRS is a sick son of a bitch. Yeah, I said it. He should be locked up for killing nights and destroying dancefloors with his masterful mixmastery (say that 6 times fast). I’ve been working with this dude for a few weeks now on TIME Thursdays, and I’ve gotta say I’m genuinely impressed by [...]

#MusicMonday – The Black Keys

For the past month or so, my buddy has continuously been telling me about The Black Keys, and how his “next girl, will be nothing like his ex girl…” As I do with most conversations, I pretty much faked interest in what he was saying, and agreed that yes, for the betterment of humankind, we [...]

Drake: Autograph Signing June 21st!

If you haven’t heard by now Drake’s album “Thank Me Later” is dropping June 15th! While we intially encouraged you to buy the album simply because it’s dope, HMV now has a special offer for all you hardcore Drake fans. If you are one of the first 500 people to buy Drake’s album at the [...]

#MusicMonday – Shad K

In the entertainment world these days, we are constantly being bombarded by wannabe singers, producers, DJ’s, rappers and it can often be tough to filter out the bullshit from the realness. That’s why this week, I’ve decided to take up a new resolution, posting the music of a different artist every week. And what better [...]

Lady Gaga Has “Borderline” Lupus [Larry King Interview]

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Larry King Live, this week Larry is featuring a number of high profile celebrities. During last night’s interview with Lady Gaga, Larry spearheaded a recent rumour alleging Gaga’s health concerns by asking her about the lupus situation near the beginning of the interview. While ultimately ambiguous, Gaga’s answer confirms [...]

Waka Waka – Shakira [Official 2010 World Cup Song]

It’s the official song of the 2010 World Cup: “Waka waka (This time for Africa)” which is an adaptation of a traditional soldiers’ song named “Zangalewa”

You’ll watch these videos and have no idea what the words are when you’re done…

Lil’ Wayne: The Blue Martian Mixtape [Listen & Download]

Just when you thought Lil’ Wayne was falling back into CEO status with an army of Young Money clones, Weezy jumps into it with a brand new mixtape. No I have not listened to it yet, but I also haven’t seen Avatar either so I clearly have some catching up to do. Download the mixtape [...]

Drake – Find Your Love [Music Video]

When I first heard this track a few weeks ago I didn’t even let the whole song play out. I told my buddy, “Hey, I thought this was new Drake, not Kanye West circa 2008!”  (that’s an 808′s & Heartbreak reference for the rookies, c’mon keep up!) The track isn’t half terrible though and breaking [...]

Kid MK – What You Know About Jahova [T.I. vs Rusko]

Check out the latest from that Kid MK! This is the first remix from the Kid’s Hip-Hop vs Dubstep mini project, so keep it locked for updates. TI’s What you know about that has been a favourite of ours for years, and I’m pretty sure I’ve

The Return Of Ciara! – Ride feat. Ludacris [Video]

Oh My Fuck. I don’t know how else to say it. Much to my dismay, Ciara disappeared off the map years ago, and like most celebrity fall-offs, we don’t really expect a comeback unless your name is Britney Spears or you hold a baby outside a hotel room window (a la Michael Jackson). But listen, [...]

Messed Up Music Videos From The 90′s

Apparently through associating himself with b4-4 the young homeless black child has become a pimp

Smash Your Glass! [Conway Beats Keep It Low Remix]

With the internet these days, any average Joe can be up on the newest club bangers as fast as the biggest DJ’s, and because of this there are no days off when it comes to finding that exclusive shit. My boy Conway has been keeping me ahead of the game, sending me all his brand [...]

Eminem – Despicable [Drake Over Dub]

Oh my gawwwd Eminem goes in heavy on this one. Recently Em dropped some insanely out of place fire on B.o.B.’s Airplanes, but this? This just fits. A crazy beat with out-of-control-flow. Yezzir, the Blond Bomber is back! PMA reports that his album Recovery is set to drop June 22nd, and I can’t figure out [...]

Digital Major Lazer Mix [You're Not Ready For April 24th]

Last Saturday I was speaking to the Monarch himself, and we decided that while many of you are stoked for the Major Lazer concert this weekend, many of you aren’t quite prepared for it. I’d like to help you get ready with this mix from that dude Kromar! He got us ready with his last [...]

The Wheel Wells sing a song about growing up… kind of [Video]

This time of year is very hard for a lot of different people for a lot of different reasons. For some there are still exams to cram for and papers to be plagiarized written, while others must face their impending graduation and the cold grip of ‘real life’ and ‘moving on’.
As recent grads of our [...]
