Audio/Video: Keys To The City Presents Philadelphia
- story THE FADER
If you have not been to Philly do not fret because after you watch approximately 92 trillion videos from Diplo & his Mad Decent crew as well as The Roots, look at some slideshows, listen to an exclusive Mad Decent mix and hear Diplo talk about the history of Philly DJs, you can pretend you are from there and no one will be the wiser. Seriously though, go here. and check out the vast amount of digital media that represents a small fraction of the music from Philly. Also, above watch as Diplo talks about Schoolly D and Jazzy Jeff on an ugly couch.

- story THE FADER
Continuing the Philly phandom on ye olde blog homestead, here’s a newish joint from Roots Crew associate P.O.R.N., who we’ve been trying to find out more about ever since his guest appearances on Rising Down (not as much of “a grower” as Game Theory, but it holds up pretty well, no?). After repeatedly being thwarted by the fact that duke has the single most Google-unfriendly rap name of all time, we ultimately had to track him down through Black Thought’s Top 8. What the hell! Anyhow, this song goes HOARD, three minutes and 22 seconds of West Philly dynamite that sounds like the bastard child of Kanye’s “Two Words” and a revving NASCAR engine. If it doesn’t get you amped for the rumored Money Making Jam Boyz record, you must not like the rap musics.
