Big Dog Robot

This thing is absolutely insane. It's a remote controlled robot that looks like some kind of crazy spider dog with 4 human legs. Big Dog jumps, can carry loads, walk on snow, ice, rocks, up hills, etc. The St. Bernard is in for a challenge on the ski-lifts. Among other applications, of course.

This could also signify the end of the world or that we are getting closer to some Space Odyssey 2001 Robocop Terminator land. Regardless that is one crazy remarkable robot. Check out the official link to the Boston Dynamics site here. Props to Dart for the link, I hope I didn't scoop Hellyup.

Trv$DJAM LATimes

Great LA Times article right here on our own Travis Barker and his remix game along with the recent DJ AM collaborations. Also, this lets the cat out of the bag- Travis and AM will serve as the "house band" for thie year's MTV Video Music Awards on 9/7/2008. Props to Jenni on the PR.

Joker Bank Robber

Yeah, I collect toys. I only buy the stuff that I really like, which is a lot, but it's fun so there. This Joker toy from Heath Ledger's Dark Knight rendition looks like it just could be the coolest superhero toy ever made.
It comes with 2 heads, the clown mask, guns, cash and a bag. Seriously even if you don't care about toys at all you have to recognize how incredible this thing looks. So, dare I say, lifelike... Props to Riggs for the link.

Fix Your Face!

I'm a couple of days behind on it but here is the site for the TRVS/DJAM Fix Your Face mixtape I spoke of a couple of weeks ago. Enjoy!

Jewish Battle Rap

You kind of have to be Jewish to get most of the references here but this is a riot. Baruchashem!

Lose Yourself, Clarise...

This is a couple of years old but I found the link for it while clearing out some old e-mails earlier today. It's amazing how she kind of tried to rap the lyrics, and not just quote them. First time I ever saw Jodi act was in a film called Bugsy Malone... I wish that movie was available on DVD.

The Alchemist Blogs!

Our favorite DJ/producer/rapper, The Alchemist, has started a blog! Click here to be sent to a land where young Cali-bred Alchemist shares candidly about his life and views on music.

Keep it up, Al! We are diggin' it. Hang in there, P!

The Knux "Bang! Bang!" DJ Graham Funke Remix

Check out DJ Graham Funke's remix of The Knux "Bang! Bang!" This unofficial remix obviously borrows heavily from The Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Higher Ground". The Knux album Remind Me In 3 Days... is due out on 10/14 on Interscope Records.

It Takes Guts

Spotted this fella out for a little bike ride in the hot Central Florida sun yesterday. I'm not sure if the spandex biker shorts or the decision to go shirtless is more problematic. I'm certainly no Adonis but come on, why, Bro?

Rev Jude

Co-host of The All-Out Show on Sirius Satellite Radio's Shade45, Rude Jude, announced last week that he's an ordained Reverend. Listen below as he sets forth his explanation to the listeners and Lord Sear... Jude is a very entertaining and extraordinarily confused young man. He'd now like to be referred to as Reverend Rude Jude Angelini and has placed himself in the company of real Reverends, like Reverend Jesse Jackson. I know Jude, and I can't tell if he's completely joking or not. What do you think?

You don't want me to rebuke you, dude.

Toyota?

I don't know why I think this is so funny. Maybe it's the look on the woman's face... whether it's fake or not it's damn funny. Shouts out to Skone for the article.

On another note, remember when dudes used to take of letters on the back of there Toyota trucks so that they just read "YO"? I really hated that.

TRVS/DJAM- Fix Your Face

It's finally here. The long awaited mixtape from Travis Barker and DJ AM, Fix Your Face. The CD is a studio mixed set from one of Travis and AM's legendary live club performances. It drops next week all over the net... but Rosenblog has an exclusive. Check out the Intro to the CD below. Not available in stores. Not available on Itunes. Happy hunting and enjoy.

Also, I just remembered that this week marks the first year anniversary of Rosenblog, and I am trying to come up with something special for you all. Stay put.

Jay-Z on Shade45

Over the past few weeks since the departure of Cipha Sounds from the Shade45 Morning Show we have been checking out how our beloved Angela Yee has faired with new various co-hosts. One of the most regular and recurring favorites has been former Editor-In-Chief of XXL magazine, Elliott Wilson. I know this will just refuel the false rumors that Shady and/or Interscope had/has some hand in the magazine since we helped them grab the rap mag crown since our classic Em/Dre/50 cover back in '02, but who cares... Elliott has stepped to the plate big.
So big, in fact (pause) that he brought the one-and-only Hov out to be interviewed on the show last week. Check out the clip below from the show and hear Ms. Yee stretch the boundaries of radio appropriateness, and a certain part of her anatomy, for Jay-Z. This is what satellite radio is all about, kids.

Sorry for the slow posting these days... family duty comes first. I'm getting back up to speed though don't worry!

She Doesn't Need a Hook...

But she might need some better fitting clothes. Why does she keep knocking people down? I thought they were her friends.

The Knux @ Red Bull Space, NYC

Come out if you can and see The Knux at the Red Bull Space in NYC on Thursday night. Door will be tight, so get there by 8pm if you can. What a great live show we are in for... and free vodka Red Bulls. Hiyoooooooo! I'm excited it's my first night out since PJ was born.

P.S. We did not design this flyer.

Barack and the Jewish Vote

This is a very funny piece from The Daily Show about the Jewish vote in South Florida. The old guy that keeps yelling at the lady about "fillabustering" is hilarious.

Piper Jillian Rosenberg

Our daughter was born today, 8lbs. 15oz. and 22" long. I couldn't be happier about it.
