Complex The Complex Soundboard 2: Click On It!

Since we laid down the audible-fuckery blueprint with the world-famous Complex Soundboard, it’s only right that we cook up a worthy sequel. And rest assured, this is no Blueprint 2—nope, we made the O.G. better by diversifying our lineup to feature a wider range of talking heads that includes old dudes (Larry David, Howard Dean), youngins (Latarian Milton), and hot women (Superhead, Olivia Munn, Kim Kardashian). Most importantly, SB 2 features two gems from the one and only Super Craka—you may not know him yet, but you will soon.

As with the original, the fun-filled clickfest above is a fully embeddable, interactive collection of awesome audio clips. Let the chatter begin! After the jump, read our handy legend so you can identify who’s who…

Complex Complex Back in the Day: The Best of 1989


See what was on our minds in ‘89? Not much has changed.

Any man who’s dated a chick for more than a month knows that things go in cycles. To constantly bring you the future of freshness like we do, Complex has to keep perspective on not only what is hot, but also what was hot so we can stay one step ahead of your average retro kid. And thus our new feature “Complex Back In The Day” was born.

See, Complex might have been founded in 2003, but our taste is timeless. What would we have covered if we were around 10, 15, or 20 years ago? For the first edition of “Complex Back In The Day,” we’re taking a close look at The Best of 1989. We created fake covers with some of our favorite ’89 celebs, and then rounded up our favorite sneakers, movies, TV shows, albums, video games, women, brands, trends, and more in a series of top 10 lists…

Complex Kid Cudi Covers Our August/September Style & Design Issue

kid-cudi-last0ne-final-correct
Back on his first (and only) official mixtape Kid Cudi rapped, “They say I’m Complex like the magazine, I want my closet complex like the magazine.” A bit of foreshadowing? Perhaps, because the G.O.O.D. Music MC is now a Complex cover star, appearing on our August/September 2009 issue, the annual Style & Design special, which officially hits stands on August 11.

The self-proclaimed lonely stoner is currently on The Great Hangover Tour with Asher Roth, and has fans eagerly awaiting his debut album The Man On The Moon: End Of Day, which is now set for September 15. His melody-heavy raps bring an innovative sound to the game, which is why we paired him up with graf artist AUGOR for some illustrations that show Cudi battling his demons. We just put the whole story up online, and you’ll see that Cudi really invited us inside the mind of Scott Mescudi. You think you know, but you have no idea…
