Trae Tha Truth feat. MDMA, Big Boi, Wale, & Wiz Khalifa – “I’m On” [Video]

B-Easy — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 04:33:31 +0000

Even though this song has been floating around for a minute, Trae Tha Truth drops the visuals for “I’m On”. The crazy thing about Trae is that even though he’s not a household name, the fact that he has this crazy lineup of Lupe Fiasco, Big Boi, Wale, & Wiz Khalifa all on one song and that they all appear in this music video says something about the respect he gets from his peers (Also check out the cameos from rappers like Waka Flocka, 2 Chainz, & Trouble). This is off Trae’s Street King album (Which I review last July).

Sidenote: Back in middle school I had almost that same Chicago Bull Starter pullover that Wiz is rocking here.

’11 Disappointing Albums: #2 Lupe Fiasco Lasers

B.Dot — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 22:44:20 +0000

It took a minute for Lupe’s Lasers to occupy stores. But to hear fans tell it, it wasn’t worth the wait. Unlike his previous efforts, Lupe ditched his lyrical wizardry for Top 40 appeal. Most of the backlash started from “The Show Goes On” and ended with the Trey Songz collaboration, “Out Of My Head”. But who are we kidding? Fans are fickle. So it’s hard to dismiss standouts like, “All Black Everything” and “Words I Never Said”. Lasers is Lupe’s most successful album to date, so really, who’s the biggest LOSER afterall?
