The Plug One 50 2009: Top 30 Tracks
While the Plug One 50’s top 20 albums list is designed to be authoritative (or at least highly opinionated), the top 30 tracks list tends to be a mishmash of random favorites. These are a few songs that caught my … Continue reading

Cage hates the road, loves cupcakes
Former Agent Orange-turned-Definitive Jux star Cage is heading on the road for a 22-city tour through the eastern United States, including dates in the East, Midwest and South. His touring companions? First there’s Yak Ballz, an emcee best known for associations with Bobbito (via Fondle ‘Em) and Def Jux fam (Definitive Jux Presents II), and who dropped his second album Scifentology last year. Slow Suicide Stimulus, the New Jersey rap quartet featuring former Artifacts rapper Tame One and Dusted Dons, will be promoting last year’s self-titled debut.
The concerts, lovingly titled the "I Hate It" tour, will provide audiences with new material from Cage’s upcoming album Depart from Me. It will also introduce CupCake, a crew of ladies who are releasing a DVD called, coincidentally, I Hate It. Judging from a trailer posted on CupCake’s MySpace page (and the softcore website GodsGirls.com, where they pose as models), they’re a cross between Suicide Girls and Jackass, and display lots of titties, tattoos and stupid pranks. Cage’s skatepunk and knucklehead fans will love them.
