If you were at Lucky Strike on last week, chances are you did a lot more than bowl your usual wack game. YRB Magazine and Brandsway Creative shacked up at the midtown bowling lounge to showcase five new musical acts for the battle of the bands. Five bands including The Arhams, Adrienne Mack-Davis, The August Infinity, Lip Tease, and the Garden Variety rocked their hearts out as a packed house enjoyed a great night of music, drinks and bowling fun.

After plenty of anticipation, the day to debut Mac Miller's mixtape K.I.D.S. (Kickin' Incredibly Dope Shit) has arrived. Recruiting a bare minimum number of features, the 18 yr old Pittsburgh spitta set out to bring his mic skills to the forefront on this project and did exactly that. With a collection of both lyrically and sonicly strong tracks, one could make the argument that Mac attack's with the strongest tape of the summer.
