Check Out This New Investigative Documentary Series On Netflix, “Dirty Money” (Trailer)
Man oh, man… This isn’t even art imitating life, rather a [Netflix] video series reporting it. We pretty much assume that big businesses and “Dirty Money” (that ‘anything for a buck’ mentality) go hand-in-hand, right? Well, these stories – teased in the episode trailer above – should not surprise you. The first episode is on Volkswagen… supposed to mean the “People’s Car” in German… yeah, but which “people” (probably ‘The 1%’) is it really ‘for’?
In The End, U.S. Dollars Go ‘Green’ (Video)
Talk about making it rain for the environment. In a way, I guess this is using money to ensure we have the best soil for the best crops for people to consume. Watch how the U.S. takes dirty money (e.g. ‘spent currency’) and shreds and composts it to enrich gardening/farming soil.

R&B: Dawn Richard – “Miles”
Dawn Richard (formerly of Dirty Money) still doing it! Check her out on “Miles” – hot music from the hot sista. Up tempo grooves for all y’all. This is a leak from her EP entitled “Whiteout” (out now).
R&B/Alternative: Dawn Richard – “Pretty Wicked Things”
You know Dawn Richard (from Dirty Money), right? We just posted something on her a while back (see Dawn Richard – Wild N’ Young) To be that good. Wow! I tell you Dawn Richard did the work on this track (entitled “Pretty Wicked Things”)! Now, I’ll admit that the first bounce – from slow-and-low to dance tempo – threw me, but shout to producer by Druski for the vision on this one. A somber trance feel pervades over the entirety of this techno track – fast and slow parts. But by the time the music faded, I could not imagine it being better any other way. The full length release, on which “Pretty Wicked Things” will be featured, is entitled “Goldenheart” (due out October 16, 2012).
Dirty Money – ‘Ass On The Floor’ Remix
I really dig this remix from Dirty Money. Unfortunately I think Puff’s rap segment is rather weak but overall I’m really feeling this remix of the song. No disrespect to Puff but I may have to edit his rap segment of the song out for my personal enjoyment. If I decide to do so y’all can check back here for it. Take that! Take That! Take That!
Dirty Money: Last Ride From London (Video)
Honestly I think the Diddy-Dirty Money album wasn’t that bad of an album, but the primary thing that was distracting on it was Diddy himself. I didn’t think Puffy’s vocals was necessary on a few of the songs. Yeah they could have needed Diddy’s starpower to get more media interest in the group, but he could have pulled his presence back a little on some songs. Maybe he wanted to find a way to make sure the group succeeded from a publicity standpoint or still wanted to be an artist as well. I don’t know but I think Dirty Money could have succeeded without them being Diddy-Dirty Money if Puff played the back more from a vocalists perspective. In any case I found this interview on the web & thought it was interesting because the focus was on the female members of the group & not just Diddy. Not only did I dig the way it was shot, but I enjoyed the honest & open answers the ladies gave about the time leading up to the project & their relationship with each other.
