Tennille

Introducing Tennille, the sweet vocalist from New York.

Label mates with The Cool Kids at C.A.K.E Recordings, 10iller as she is also known, featured on the track 'Jump Rope' (a classic), which was on the Gone Fishing mixtape released in 2009.

This fresh talent can hold her own as an MC and she also sings, adding a sweet melodic sound to whatever track she features on.

2011 looks set to be a good year for this multitalented songstress, check out her latest work 10illmatic/10FDoom - a combination of Nas and MF Doom beats on this ten track cd.

The mixtape features collaborations with the likes of, Sir Michael Rocks of The Cool Kids and Pac Div's Like & Mibbs.

Check it out and remember the name 10iller or Tennille, whichever you prefer.

New Cool Kids

The Cool Kids have been off the radar for a while sorting out their record label situation but it looks like the boys are back.

Check out the video for the song 'Big Talk' - shot at The United Centre, home of the legendary Chicago Bulls basketball team.

Lil P-Nut features...

Check out this video for his song 'Look in the Mirror' by Memphis born rapper Yo Gotti.

Look out for Lil P-Nut as he makes a star appearance as Yo Gotti's double.

The Ellington

Check out these joints from Clae.

The Ellington is very similar to the Gourmet-Precinct 5 callabo I blogged about back in August.

The shoe is available in seven different styles, including a solid white but for me, the 'Walnut Suede Brick' pictured, is the one.

They retail at £74.99 and are available at Offspring.
