Rap Radar

Mac Miller takes it back to the 1950s with the latest video from his mixtape, K.I.D.S. “Happy Days” are here again.

A few weeks back, Swizz Beatz accepted residency at New York University. Here the producer speaks with BET News about his latest endeavor. Save the music, y’all!

Actually, it’s “Gordon Smith”. Last night, Nas appeared on Hawaii 5-0 as a computer booster turned parole violator. Let’s just say actin’ isn’t Esco’s strong suit. Maybe next time they’ll catch him at the pro bowl.

Well, the cat’s out of the bag. After holding down the morning slot on Shade 45 for six years, Angela Yee will replace Ed Lover on New York’s Power 105.1 with DJ Envy and Charlamagne Tha God. The new regime begins in two weeks. It’s so hard to say good bye.

Teyana Taylor spilled the beans yesterday on Twitter about Kanye’s secret show at the Bowery Ballroom. Brooklyn Vegan did a lil’ diggin’ and found out that Yeezy will indeed be at 6 Delancey Street later tonight. In fact, tickets go sale in one hour.

Reek pops the hood with Busta Rhymes and Swizz Beatz for his new video, “Mechanics”. With Aristotle in the director’s chair, there’s no need for a tune up.

N.O. sent me so many heatrocks for Rap Radar’s Mixtape Of The Year, I don’t know which one to choose. Here’s one that probably won’t make the final cut but it knocks nonetheless. The joint is produced by Hazardis Soundz and features Imam Thug and Glacierz Da Ville. Yup that’s a female MC at the end, watch out Minaj. Ha!

You know how we do it. Although Tha Thug Show premieres on November 30th, here is Slim’s collab co-starring Rozay and Lex Luger’s signature drums. They’ve come a long way baby. Ha!

During Pusha T’s RapFixLive interview last week, his G.O.O.D. Music labelmate CyHi Da Prynce called in and revealed that he’s set to release another mixtape next month, entitled Allies. He says he’s already nine songs deep and will feature collabos from J.Cole, Yelawolf, Pill, Donnis, and Big K.R.I.T.

After getting arrested last week for a probation violation, DMX’s back at his home away from home: the Lower Buckeye jail in Arizona. While he waits to see a judge next week, X spoke with local FOX affiliate about his road to redemption.
