Anderson .Paak was recently spotted playing a drum kit on wheels through an LA neighborhood as part of a commercial shoot in the area.
Resident Dylan captured the moment on IG: “When Anderson .Paak brings major joy vibes to your street by playing a full drum set on a go cart! And before he hit the street, he was doing in our house!!! (all for a commercial shoot.) I hope this is the beginning of much more shoots in L.A. - where they should be. Props to Mr. Paak!”
We are saddened to announce the passing of Bob Power, legendary engineer, producer & musician whose work help defined hip‑hop & R&B. From A Tribe Called Quest & De La Soul to The Roots, Erykah Badu, D’Angelo, his influence shaped generations.
A mentor & teacher at NYU’s Clive Davis Institute, Bob inspired countless artists & engineers. More than an engineer, he was a bridge between worlds blending technical mastery with soul & rhythm. His legacy echoes in every beat, every mix.
Rest easy, Bob 🕊
One of my favorites from the criminally slept Cali legend, MED. Always appreciated his style and how he just skates over any sound bed you provide him.

Imagine being in the studio and hearing this new beat by RZA…
Look at the focus of Inspectah Deck. GZA’s vibing, trying to come up something.
But Inspectah Deck is mesmerized, already LOCKED IN… He has no idea yet what he’s about to create; that’s he’s about to be a part of hip hop history!
But you can see it in his face what he *feels listening to this beat…
And just like that “C.R.E.A.M.”, one of Wu-Tang Clan’s most iconic songs, one of hip hop/rap music’s
most important classics, was born…
