TODAY'S PICKS

DAILY TRACK: Wu-Tang Clan — "Unpredictable"
Cuts like "Unpredictable" — where RZA's ominous, screeching attack evokes a Scorsese flick about crack dealers — also prove that the Wu can still dish pummeling grit-hop as well as anyone. Click HERE for more.

DAILY VIDEO: Breaking Artist — Gucci Mane

DAILY REVIEW: Seal — System
Seal's leisurely seduction ballads get the job done on System, but not since his debut has he gone for such a dance-friendly club sound. He builds on the template of Madonna's Ray of Light and Confessions on a Dance Floor, even working with Confessions producer Stuart Price.Click HERE for more on the album.
