N.A.S.A. “Spacious Thoughts” feat. Tom Waits & Kool Keith (Video)

And speaking of ultra-hyped blog buzz, remeber last spring when a day couldn’t go by without some new leak, link or remix coming from N.A.S.A.?

J.Cole and Wale Freestyle @ Denny’s (Video)

Fast forward to 1:14 for the good stuff. This reminds me of lunchroom cyphers we used to kick in my youth. Too bad we couldn’t rap quite as well as  Wale and J. Cole. The audio is kind of low so you might want to pump it up before you take a gander. First seen @ 2db.
