LBC Trax 1 (3.8.07)

As many of you know, I LOVE music. It's a passion for me. (Ok, maybe an obsession.)

There are several Web 2.0/blogging/social networking music sites out there, but only two majors that I've been working with: MOG & Last.fm. While both of these sites are great, and VERY useful, neither has done what I want them to completely.

Last.fm does a great job at showing what I'm listening to, but only if I listen to it on my computer - not so much on my iPod or Sirius. MOG has a great tool where I can update my little widget (as you can see in my sidebar) to list songs I think you should be listening to - and on the MOG site, it works - but on FluxW.com, for some reason, it never updates.

Thus, we end up here - LBC Trax

With the help of iTunes and iMix, I will be bringing my first ever "weekly" column - to be updated approximately every Friday (after I get a chance to hear the week's new music, of course)...

Today, I bring you LBC Trax #1, for the week of March 8, 2007. It's a eccentric little mix, highlighted by the teaming of rap legends KRS-One and Rakim with future rap legends, Kanye West and Nas on the single, Classic (Better Than I've Ever Been).

And now, we cue the music:

Enjoy!
