Obie Trice - New Day


Over the beautifully crafted RZA beat, Obie dedicates this one to his mother, Eleanor Trice, who passed away last month from breast cancer.

CNN Plays Lil B By Mistake


This 103 year old woman is swagging to "Wonton Soup" (on accident).  Based God strikes again.

Killa Kyleon - Ballin


Kyleon has been releasing a lot of quality music lately and his fan base is growing rapidly, for good reason,

Chip Tha Ripper - Great Time


Chip might be one the realest rapping right now (along with Nipsey & some others).  I still strongly believe we all should've paid for Gift Raps.  Got away with a steal there.

Big K.R.I.T. - The Vent


One of the deepest songs you'll hear in rap nowadays, from his album, Return of 4eva.  Tell me rap isn't poetic...  Oh and happy birthday to K.R.I.T. too.

Game – In My Bag Feestyle


Still mad at Game for dissing Lil B...but no denying this.  FIRE.

*Throwback* Juvenile - Slow Motion


R.I.P Soulja Slim.

Young Harm - When I Go To Sleep


First video off his recent EP, Last Couple Dollars,  living his dream over a rock-inspired beat.  Listen for that "tortoise" line in the first verse.

Sha Stimuli ft. Lela Biz - Alone


You can find this on the underrated artist's last mixtape, The Break Up pt 2: The Proposal.

Kendrick Lamar – A.D.H.D


The torch has officially been passed to Kendrick Lamar to run the West, with a co-sign from just about every big name in the industry to back that up.  This is the third video released off Section.80.

E-40 ft. B-Legit & Stressmatic - Rear View Mirror


The creator of most the slang in Hip Hop, E-40 is back at it with this video off his last album, Revenue Retrieving: Overtime & Graveyard Shift.  The start of this is pretty funny.

Prodigy - Serious (The New Message)


An unreleased classic.

Fam-Lay Acapella Freestyle


Versatility and varying flows.  That's what makes a good freestyler, and Fam-Lay has both.

Curren$y - Verde Terrace (Mixtape)


The leader of the Jets empire hits us with another free, highly anticipated project.  Nothing new.  Start off with "Pininfarina" and work from there.  Don't expect disappointment.

Lil B - Wake Up Mr Flowers


A Picasso with words.  Saw this man live in Hollywood the other day and he tore the place down.  I got to talk to him at the end and all I can say is...thank you Based God.

Curren$y - Only U


Some old school Curren$y has never disappointed.  This is my first time hearing this and not sure where it's from.  Sounds like the Young Money era.

Stalley - Chevys and Space Ships


Using an older sample (one of my favorite beats), Stalley does what he always does here.  He & Wale are what I like to call the socially aware members of MMG.

*Throwback* Eric B & Rakim - Juice (Know The Ledge)


After a recommendation via Twitter from Andre Nickatina...

Wednesday, August 17, 2011

Rick Ross - Quiet Storm


It's a Rozay marathon in my house right now.

Wale – The Eleven One Eleven Theory (Mixtape)


You usually don't hear such universal praise in as quick of a time span like this.  Everyone is loving Wale's new tape.

Killa Kyleon - Who Shot Ya


I've known for a while Killa had bars, but...just wow. The wordplay in this one elevates his status in my book.

Sir Michael Rocks - Cell Dope


Pocket full of dollars and like three or four cell phones.

Curren$y - Pininfarina


Verde Terrace w/ DJ Drama coming soon.  Needless to say this has me excited for the project.  Just take one listen (which will turn into three) and you'll agree.

Andre Nickatina & Equipto - Caught In a Verse


Is this not the realest song you've ever heard?

Green Street ft. Fresh Daily - What's Cookin' 2.0


Second video off Green Street's album, Don't Look Down.  Such a talented group with a lot of time to build and get their name out there.  Expect big things.

Jay-Z & Kanye West - Otis


  Kanye and Jay are on a whole 'nother level than everybody else.  And they know it too.

P.S. - Poor Maybach

Lil B - Swag Jerry Rice


Jerry Rice helped the Niners win a few rings, but he's not the only one who put the Bay Area on his back.  Woo woo.

Omar Aura ft. Fashawn - 1,000 Palm Trees


A perfect day in beautiful Southern California today where I'm at, so I'm about to go poolside and enjoy it.  If it's nice where you live, you should do the same.

*Throwback* Jay-Z & The Notorious B.I.G. - Brooklyn's Finest


Around here I can post an N.W.A song and a Jay/Biggie song back to back.

*Throwback* N.W.A. ft. Snoop Dogg - Chin Check


Bar for bar this has to be one of the hardest songs out.

Saigon - Married to the Game


As an artist and a free thinker, Sai is exactly the type of person I want on this site.  The Greatest Story Never Told is one of Hip Hop's gems.

GhostWridah - The American Dream


MIAMI.

Monday, August 8, 2011

Thr33zy McFly - Hey Boo


My personal favorite out of the Language Artz camp.

Saturday, August 6, 2011

*Throwback* Public Enemy - Give it up

Chris Brown - Boy In Detention (Mixtape)


Breezy's first shot at a rap project.  I've actually liked a few songs I've heard lately from him.  And with a good featuring cast it could be a solid tape.  Who knows with Chris Brown, but I'm curious.

Jay-Z x Kanye West - Watch The Throne (Trailer)


Not sure why they couldn't have worked on a better trailer but regardless, Watch The Throne will be out in 3 days.

Skeme - Thank God


From The Statement mixtape.

Game - MTV RapFix Live Freestyle


With no instrumental playing, Game recited/destroyed a verse from "Infared" with Sway off The R.E.D. Album, which finally hits stores August 23rd....hopefully.  This was nasty though.

Lil B - R.I.P. The Rap Game


Once again demonstrating the flow that people are still in denial about.

Big K.R.I.T. ft. Yelawolf - Happy Birthday Hip Hop


Some of the best the South has to offer.

Black Rob - Showin Up


Game Tested, Streets Approved is available now, so go ahead and check that project out.  He's been working hard and seems determined to stay away from the material downfalls that plague so many rappers these days.  I really like this track because he lists a lot of problems in rap that people don't usually admit.

Rich The Factor - So Federal


I spent 5 months in Kansas a year ago, and although I don't have many positives to say of the state (sorry) it did expose me to a wider variety of music.  Rich the Factor is out of KC, Missouri and you can hear the truth in his voice.

*Throwback* Black Rob - Like Whoa


This beat makes it so you have to go hard.  Clearly Black Rob did that, making this track one of the best songs in Hip Hop till this day.  And I haven't heard a remix better than the original yet.

Curren$y ft. Smoke DZA - Life Instructions


Patty cake, patty cake.

The Game - Hoodmorning (No Typo): Candy Coronas (Mixtape)


My Samoan friend said this mixtape is better than his favorite rapper's album.  Be the judge yourself.  This tape includes "Uncle Otis", where he takes shots at everyone.  Literally everyone.
