Snoop Dogg is performing at Warehouse Live tomorrow night, and we thought we would celebrate by posting the music video of his new song, "Sensual Seduction." Snoop has always been a funny dude, hamming it up in MTV's now defunct Televizzle, the 2004 flick Starsky and Hutch, and the new E! reality series, Father Hood. "Sensual Seduction" manages to be both a tongue-in-cheek romp and a highly stylized pop song that is steadily climbing the......

This looks to be the last big release week of the year, and 2007 is going out with a bang. We'll see you in '08! The Cool is Lupe Fiasco's follow-up album to last year's fantastic Food and Liquor. The record is filled with clever and forward-thinking tracks like “Dumb it Down” that manage succeed on both an underground and commercial level, and features noteworthy contributions from Snoop Dogg, UNKLE, newcomer Matthew Santos, and Food......

The Red Sox has permeated nearly every facet of Bostonist's lives. When they're not live-blogging the games, waxing poetic about the games, thanking Curt Schilling for his splendid work, or telling Dane Cook to watch his hair, they're watching certain presidential candidates hop on the Red Sox bandwagon (sorry, Gothamist). The Sox are so branded on the local brain that people are using the Series to spice up their sex lives. Speaking of spice, Bostonist......

One of our favorite cover songs is The Gourd’s bluegrass version of Snoop’s “Gin and Juice.” Sure, the band has some even better original songs, but this is the one that people scream for at the show. Who knows, you might be able to persuade The Gourds vocalist/guitarist Kevin Russell to sing it tonight at Under the Volcano – but you may have to buy him a few gin and tonics for the persuasion to......

Gothamist, Chicagoist, Bostonist and Seattlest all zoomed in on their creamy GoogleCenters. A crack cartography team is hard at work determining the GoogleCenter of the Ist-a-verse as you read this... Austinist read a book about Olympian Bode Miller and liked it. They also took a few pictures of the......

Ah, now Houstonist remembers why we didn't venture out to the Galleria area this weekend: Between the All-Star tourists and locals hoping to catch a glimpse of them, it was a madhouse. The cold weather was partly to blame for making everyone want to get indoors, but the draw of the Galleria itself — from the upscale stores to the celebrity sightings — was the main thing. Retailers reported big sales and a few star......
