Bun B Feat. Drake – “Put It Down”

No surprises in seeing this collab here. The “Uptown” boys put it down on So Far Gone and since then, have been the best of chums. One would expect Bun to bring the trill but Drizzy sends some shots in some of you (ahem) “haters” direction without any sugar coating: “Overboard nigga/I’m quoted more nigga/results are [...]

Big Boi feat. Andre 3000 & Sleepy Brown – “Lookin’ 4 Ya”

I wasn’t gonna post this mainly because this is a strong reminder that we still have no sight of an Outkast or Andre 3000 album. Then I posted it for that exact reason. The tracklisting for Big Boi’s upcoming Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son Of Chico Dusty was released and to the dismay of [...]

Eminem – “Not Afraid” Video

Nobody ever really talks about the “after.” Sure, when a person is at there peak or lowest point, there’s usually that rallying of attention, which could be there to reinforce positive and/or negative energies. Still, it isn’t a solo mission. What happens after that when the concern is lessened and you’re deemed healthy enough [...]

Rick Ross Is The Black Zorro

May 26th

Posted by J. Tinsley over at The Smoking Section

At least, he sure as hell resembles the masked maurader in this picture. Before Ricky offers the world a look into the daily workings of his mafioso type wheelings and dealings on Teflon Don, Memorial Day Weekend needs tending to first. With Miami being one of the country’s premiere destination spots, the Bawse probably felt it [...]

Drake Feat. Lil Wayne – “Miss Me”

May 24th

Posted by TC over at The Smoking Section

Although it lacks the fiery passion that made “Successful” such an instantaneous classic, Drake and Weezy F. ride the lightning with flurries of clever quips (“Drake just stands for do right and kill everything”/”Turn you into a vegetable like you lying in soup”) that keep all the fans and haters checking in, regardless of the [...]

Drake Feat. Young Jeezy – “Unforgettable”

May 23rd

Posted by TC over at The Smoking Section

Simply put, Thank Me Later has too many guest appearances. The people paid their money to hear Drake, not Sgt. Drizzy’s Lonely Hearts Club. It’s overly calculated, pieces of plastic like this that continue to strip the art from every industry album as the game keeps reforming. That being said, “Unforgettable” is a nice record. [...]

Drake Says Enough Is Enough

May 20th

Posted by J. Tinsley over at The Smoking Section

Everyone has pride, just like everyone has a breaking point. And at some time, everyone is going to hear all the criticisms placed upon them. To their face and behind their back. In the world of Hip-Hop, those criticisms are magnified, especially in current times. For artists like Eminem, Jay-Z and OutKast, their legend was stamped [...]

So here it is. Em first single off his new album Recovery. It’s produced by Boi-1da and as we heard early this week, it has a more uplifting tone. I’m gonna need more plays before I pass judgment (I’m already not feeling all the singing though), but Em does mention on the track he wasn’t [...]
