This other kind of bucking has been going on in Memphis for a long time: Buckin’ Jookin’ and Gangster Walkin’. It is really good with Chopped and Screwed music, which is also totally awesome.

Obama knows. Now I know. 12 Bones Smokehouse in Asheville, NC, is the shit. I know some dyed-in-the-wool North Carolinians may think blueberry chipotle barbecue sauce is for effete Northerners, but fuck that.
That shit was good, the ribs were smokey and juicy and falling off the bone, and a half rack was a reasonable $10 with two sides (the greens and cucumber salad I had were top notch). Last time I listened to locals in this neck of the woods was in Memphis. People told me Central BBQ was for tourists and the real deal was to be had at Bar-B-Q Shop. So I went there. It sucked. Central is way better, I don’t care if it’s my Yankee-ass taste buds telling me that.

It goes without saying that Hip Hop has taken a few very low hits in the past decade. Thanks to the likes of 50 Cent and company, it accounts for around 40% of all music sold in America. It’s a huge industry. So where does that leave Hip Hop artists doing something a bit different? Lord T and Eloise wear wacky outfits, make crazy music and bring a whole lot of fun back into Hip Hop. What’s more, they’ve started a new genre called ‘Aristocrunk’. Watch out!
