Jaden Smith - The Coolest (Beat by The Stuyvesants) [Video]

Will Smith's 14 year old son, Jaden Smith, begins to follow in his father's hip-hop footsteps with his latest mellow and laid back single, "The Coolest". The track is off the artists upcoming mixtape, "The Cool Tape", which drops Oct. 1st. The smooth beat is from Brooklyn production duo, The Stuyvesants, and really seems to be one of the main reasons this track is musically relevant. He's no Chi Ali, or Fresh Prince for that matter, but I'll take this over youngin's like Lil Mouse any day of the week. Maybe all he needs is his own Jazzy Jeff? Either way, theres no denying that I've had this on repeat all week. Watch and judge for yourself below!

Ableton<----------The Bridge--------->Serato

Finally! I know A LOT of you have been waiting for a software that allows you to DJ and Produce music at the same time through the same software at home and during performances!

Take it to The Bridge:
"The Bridge spans the gap between music production and DJing, creating a natural link between Ableton Live and Scratch Live or ITCH. The Bridge provides a powerful fusion of DJ and production tools, opening a world of opportunities for DJing, remixing and live performance." - Taken from--> http://serato.com/thebridge


DJ Jazzy Jeff:

“The mixtape feature was probably the best thing I've ever seen... For DJs who don't make beats yet, that turns into 'hey, I can make beats in here too.' For the guys who are beatmakers already as well as DJs, it's great because it's almost like you're DJing with multitracks. People are going to get really creative, I know my brain is working already, there's stuff that I'm going to do that I choose not to disclose right now because it's top secret.”

?uestlove (The Roots):

“My initial reaction? I was absolutely elated. As with most DJs that are Ableton friendly, a lot of us have been utilizing Ableton's warping to quantize and straighten out records that otherwise fluctuate. Now that we have the opportunity to play with the actual files... and use them in DJ gigs and live shows, the possibilities are absolutely 100% endless. Being as I just saw [The Bridge], my mind is racing with endless ideas...”

Hudson Mohawke:

“To see the two things working together is an immediate step forward. Definitely for the DJs, it's a big step. Now I can focus on more of the creative side than just getting things in time.”
