Rap Radar

In the last few days, Curtis has been steady giving us new music and in just less than 24 hours, here’s another one. Rich or poor, we would like this guy even more with a new mixtape.

Yesterday: Boomerang

Earlier this week, we finally got Mobb Deep’s first track since Prodigy‘s release. During SXSW,  VIBE caught up with Alchemist, who spoke on reuniting with P in the lab and says the MC is in the best shape of his life.

Last night, former president, Bill Clinton held his fundraiser event at the Boulevard3 in Hollywood. Funds raised yesterday helped benefit The Clinton Foundation’s Millennium Network. Above Clinton gives his speech before bringing Drake out for some words and a performance. We already knew, Bill’s a YMCMB fan. Ha!

We got parts one and two of the XXL Freshman Class cyphers, but to finish the series off, Meek Mill, Big K.R.I.T. and Fred Da Godson go in with DJ Kast One on the turntables. Three’s a charm.

Although Cee-Lo and Lupe’s SXSW appearances were canceled during last night’s show at the La Zona Rosa, Atlantic brought in B.o.B. and Janelle Monáe to fill in. Afterwards, Wiz Khalifa hit the stage and pays tribute to Nate Dogg. Hee-eey—smoke weed everyday.

Thugga is just now beginning to give his Rozay collabo the visual treatment, but before we get the final result, DJ Young Samm shares how they did it on the set. Tha Thug Show in stores now.

Bobby V sure brought out some major features for his upcoming album and has once again teamed with Da Prynce for its latest offering. Look for the Fly On The Wall in four days.
