High Definite/Thanks

May all of your meals have enough pepper.

Seriously. Thanks for hanging out.

Our latest mixtape, High & Tight, is a continuation of our tribute to the finest tracks hip-hop’s golden era had to offer. Whether it evokes a sense of nostalgia or provides an introduction to the genre, we hope you enjoy it either way.

It was a pleasure working with you guys and a million thanks yet again for your help. Both of you are true professionals and the quality of your work reflects that.

Also, I’d like to thank Profile (formerly of The Sound Providers) once again for the intro.

Tracklist after the jump.  We’ll have the mix streaming on the Apps sometime tomorrow as well.

Enjoy.

Army 1st Lt. Todd W. Weaver was killed September 9, 2010 serving during Operation Enduring Freedom from wounds suffered when insurgents attacked his unit with an improvised explosive device. His wife, Emma, posted the last letters he wrote to her and their daughter.

Posted because these men and women deserve more than one day a year to be remembered and thanked.

Yeah buddy.

Our latest mix, Bombs Away, is a continuation of our tribute to what we feel is the best hip-hop the 90′s had to offer. I sincerely hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Somehow found the time to create two great covers to choose from. More of his stuff can be found here.

I can’t thank you enough for your help on this, and I’d also like to thank to Profile (formerly of The Sound Providers) for the intro.

Today is awesome.

I’m extremely (and almost sexually) pleased to present The High Definite’s mobile application.  My buddy Hunter and his team over at Barefoot Solutions have been working with me for the past couple of months on how to get this little site of mine optimized for the 13% of you across the globe that access it on mobile phones. After dealing with the App Store’s increasingly rigid requirements for some time, we finally appeased some guy in Cupertino enough that we got approval.

When we came to the pay vs. ads crossroad, we decided the one time cost of a buck would be better than plaguing the app with ads to pay for development costs.  In return for your hard-earned dollar, I promise to do my best to fill it with an almost continuous stream of entertaining content.

As an added bonus, we have pre-released the next mixtape, High Command, exclusively on the app for your streaming pleasure.  It’s good.  If you don’t believe me, the tracklist is after the jump.  You can stream the rest of the mixtapes through the app as well.  (Please make sure your data plan can support it before streaming them.)

So, if you anticipate that at some point in the future you will:

a) be stuck in some sort of awkward social situation

b) have to wait for more than 30 seconds for anything, or

c) find yourself extremely bored on-the-go

…you can download it from the App Store here.

For you Android users, we’re working on one for the Android Market.  This is our first release, and we will make improvements with each new release until we get it right.  As always, feedback is not only appreciated but strongly encouraged.

Thanks for reading and for your support.

Inspired by the literary legend of Ernest Hemingway’s six-word story, SMITH Magazine teamed up with Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) and asked veterans to tell their tales about coming home from war in exactly six words.

I was at the beach all weekend complaining about the tourists making parking impossible.  Meanwhile, the men and women of our armed forces were doing their best to avoid death while simultaneously trying to kill people they’ll never know.  Thanks for serving.

Since the internet was boring as shit today, I decided to do a little homework.

1. I’m putting up a survey to get to know you fucks a little better and to figure out what kind of demographics this site caters to.  It’s 9 questions…soo please fill it out…or don’t and be a dick.
