Want some insight into the inner workings of our dude RL Grime? Check out his new mix for Triple J Radio (“played a bunch of stuff i’m into that i don’t usually play out”) and watch this Illroots video “Portrait” where he talks about how living in New York influenced his sound and approach to tracks. (Speaking of… get RL’s High Beams EP out now on Fool’s Gold!)
Action Bronson and Party Supplies get unplugged (and truly, deeply stoned) in the new video for “Amadou Diablo” from Blue Chips 2. We now have an urge to get an earring. (For more guitar action, get Party Supplies’ Tough Love album out now!)
In the amazing new music video for Bob Dylan’s “Like A Rolling Stone,” director Vania Heymann has created an interactive channel flipping experience where everyone on cable is lipsynching the classic tune, from reality TV actors and Drew Carey on The Price Is Right to our own Danny Brown on Channel 122. Watch it!

For our last label stage of the 2013 festival season (*wipes single neon tear from cheek*) we brought the Fool’s Gold fam down to the Chattahoochee Hills of Georgia and kicked it into overdrive at Tomorrowworld! It was an all day adventure: ATL’s own FKI and Speakerfoxxx (with Gangsta Boo MCing!) started the day off strong, Anna Lunoe, Codes, Nick Catchdubs and Style Of Eye kept it housey all afternoon, Bag Raiders and Treasure Fingers brought in the funk and brought down the sun, and then Fake Blood, RL Grime, Araabmuzik and A-Trak absolutely murdered late into the night with the help of a few thousand ravers (not to mention giant LED animations, fireworks, confetti cannons and more). But why describe it when you can watch the recap video above? Some of our favorite still pics after the jump as well. C U NEXT SUMMER! Read More
