Yesterday, the music network checked in with some of the area's hip-hop heavyweights--or, possibly, just the ones it still had email addresses for in its "Dallas Week" Rolodex--to hear their thoughts.

Let's do this. First, as always, the shows we've already discussed.The biggest show tonight's probably the first of Slobberbone's two nights of reunions (this one at Dan's Silverleaf). The O's open. But there's also the Don Cab show at RGRS, the Dr. John and Neville Brothers show at House of...

Listen: We've done our fair share of Forever The Sickest Kids dogging here at DC9 over the past 12 months or so--sometimes for good reason, and sometimes because, well, we were just bored.But, fact of the matter is, these guys had themselves a hell of a year: They released their...
Considering that I've only seen eight of the 25 artists mentioned in MTV's year-end best albums list (Kanye West, Lil Wayne, No Age, Death Cab, Vampire Weekend, Panic At The Disco, MGMT, Coldplay) actually have their viddeos played on MTV or sister network VH1, you've gotta imagine that, for 17...
