Last night, Model/ Rapper J.Cole performed at VH1’s pre-party at Club Touch in heart of the city. In the first video, he covers  “Dead Presidents” before rocking his own rendition off The Warm Up mixtape. Below he shakes things up with “PSA.” Too bad Hov couldn’t make it. Must’ve been triple booked in Switzerland. Props: 2db

Ice-T, Clinton Sparks, and Double-O give testimonials for Timabland’s new video game, Beaterator. A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to test it out at Rockstar Games. (They’re our neighbors ya know). Even for a novice, the software is user friendly. From an extensive audio library, players can create, modify, and save their tracks to a personal computer. Meanwhile the voice record option replaces the traditional pen & pad. Retailing for $40 the game operates on PSP and iPhone […]

What the bloodclot? On the 12th issue of Be Entertainment magazine (Never heard of it, either) Kimberly graces their front page. Now the Double R supports print, but this is one rag we’re going to ditch. If the outside looks this bad, imagine the editorial content. Hell, I don’t know who’s to blame: Adobe Photoshop or Kimmy’s plastic surgeon. Sigh. Hopefully, the Queen Bee’s rhymes remain on point. Props: Fresh Sidebar: Pass Biggie’s old boo the jet skis.

Rims? Bling? Yeah, Lonnie’s off that. Backstage at a Hennessey Artistry event, Com says that Obama’s incumbency has contributed to Hip-Hop’s growth and development. Take that Mr. Bob Dole. Heads Up: CNN

He spoke on hip-hop’s maturity and explained the term, “Throw It In The Bag” to the clueless anchor on the left. Afterward, he gives a lifeless performance of the aforementioned title. I’ve heard of lazy flows, but this is just ridiculous © Balki. [sparkart-clique site=”rap_radar” video=”fab_on_gdny_2″]

After months of anticipation (and a  lil’ procrastination) Drama finally released his mixtape with Mr. Gunz.  Download now and tell me whatcha think later. Tracklist after the you-know-what.

Today, Boosie Boo plead guilty to gun and drug charges and was sentenced to two years in the slammer. Luckily, he could serve less than a year for good behavior. Better not set it off in that bitch. Props: AUM

[sparkart-clique site=”rap_radar” video=”drake_forever”] Took forever. Enjoy, but don’t believe the Hype.

Busta phoned in with Green Lantern and spoke on the legacy and relationship of his former DJ, Roc Raida. What a year. Previously: Roc Raida Memorial Service Details

From the Vibe vaults, Afeni’s son credits Bad Boy for instilling his Thug Life philosophy after getting shot at Quad Studios. Pac then segues into sales figures between his All Eyez On Me and B.I.G.’s Ready To Die. See, 50 wasn’t the only one checking SoundScan.
