“Wake Up Call” by 88 Keys feat. Colin Munroe For NBA Live

88 Keys, my favorite LOST and Ralph Lauren obsessed rapper just posted up a new track that he recorded for EA Sports’ NBA Live 10 video game. According to 88’s I Heart My Polo Lifestyle blog (obsessed!), the song “was placed within the game but not included in the official soundtrack due to contractual issues.”

You Can Add Lost to 88 Keys’ List of Obsessions

We already knew that 88 keys’ Charles Njapa was dangerously obsessed with Ralph Lauren (like, crazy eyes obsessed), but it turns out that the NYC rapper responsible for the Death of Adam is completely obsessed with Lost. This is fun for me.
88’s new track, “Baggage Claim,” was posted up on his blog last week, and [...]

88 Keys Makes New Video for “The Friend Zone,” Wears LO All Over His Yearbook

It seems 88 Keys’ Charles Njapa wasn’t lying about being a LOhead even in high school.

Charles Misodi Njapa, the acclaimed hip hop producer from Long Island with a serious Ralph Lauren obsession, takes us through the journey of his fictional character, Adam. Adam just wanted to get [...]

If you’re in NYC tonight and don’t mind going out with the snow as your date, definitely head over to Feat Beats in Greenwich for an 88 Keys in store performance and autograph signing. 88 Keys’ debut full length, The Death of Album (in heavy rotation on my iPod, and my upcoming Albumoftheweek). The record [...]

88 Keys Video For “True Feelings”

I just can’t bring myself to post another 808’s & Heartbreak leak (but I didn’t say I wouldn’t post the link), so today I’m focusing my attention elsewhere (as hard as it may be, and regardless of the fact that 88 Keys is somewhat Kanye related).
With all that said, I thought this track and video [...]
