New Music: CNN “My Alias”

Thursday, October 21 2010 11:01 AM EST | Posted by: YN | Posted in: Blog, Music

Just Blaze took over the airwaves while overseas last night and, of course, he let some of his unreleased nuggets go. No rips of a new Freeway joint called “Early” and Joe Budden’s verse from that Em/Slaughterhouse collab yet, but we do have the last joint he played, an unreleased heatrock from my dudes from Queens. Look for a full download soon. Fingers crossed.

Lupe Fiasco Doesn’t Want His MTV

Thursday, October 21 2010 9:37 AM EST | Posted by: Big Homie | Posted in: Blog, True Story

Just when things boiled down between Lupe and Atlantic Records, he’s focusing his energy on a new target. Earlier this morning, he took to his Twitter account and expressed his displeasure with MTV. Apparently, the networks 10 tips got him a lil’ peeved.

Oh snap…MTV (illuminati’s favorite network) back on the attack…why can’t y’all just chill out? Salacious banality @ the speed of light? I think I’ve been very good natured with you. I personally know several employees of your company. You guys know me as well. I’m confused. Where is the true music journalism??? where is Suchin?!! What happened? Where are the honest critiques of cultural expression? For it’s not about being RIGHT it’s about being HOT Fame over self-awareness and virtue Hedonism over self respect Celebrity over cerebral. A destroying force in our culture and society just like rest of the useless vapid spectacles that pour out of our tv’s and radios.

What are we supposed to be learning from you? What is your point? Do you have a point beyond corporate sponsored distraction? Your a materialistic shell of your former self that can only identify with celebrity pageantry and instant gratification. Corporate garbage pushing plastic lifestyles and wasteful, destructive behavior into the brains of the youth of the world. So when your relevance thins in2 a whisper & the stock price collapses and you have 2 come 2 grips with the mess you made. I’ll be here 4 ya. We’ll be here. With hands full of baby powder 2 smack some sense back into your body & a warm shoulder to cry on. We want the REAL MTV back!

Lil Wayne: #7 Hottest MC In The Game

Thursday, October 21 2010 7:39 AM EST | Posted by: Amaya | Posted in: Blog, Focus

Another day, another Hottest MC In The Game. Coming in at #7 is Lil’ Tunechi. Even though Wayne has been away in jail for most of the year, he still was able to pull off a spot on the list with the help of his Young Money family.

To wit, he released the compilation album We Are Young Money in late December ’09, two full-length solo LPs — Rebirth, which debuted at #2 on the Billboard albums chart and has since gone gold, and I Am Not A Human Being, which sold 110,000 copies in its first week of release in September — more than a handful of videos and a couple of notable collaborations. A mainstay on the Hottest MCs list, his time away precipitated a fall of five slots from last year’s #2 ranking, but MTV News’ Hip-Hop Brain Trust still voted Lil Wayne the #7 Hottest MC of 2010.
