One of my favorite blogger/vloggers weighs in on Marshall Mathers’ love for polysyllabic words. You know who my partner is, but if you don’t like Relapse you’re lying to yourself. Ha! 

But I’ll let Billy Sunday DP tell it.

“Eminem’s latest album ‘Relapse’ is fantastic for it’s graphic gory content. This album is part of the great history of epic entertaining horror-core productions. This album is rap’s ‘Nightmare On Elm Street’. It is horrific, disgusting, profane, satirical and brilliant all at the same time. Lyrically, I consider this to be on a classic level. If the beats by Dr. Dre were swapped out for some of the dark production of DOOM, or more appropriately RZA, this album would be a certified classic. This drop though is to discuss the lyrical eminence of Eminem. A reader stated that this album was garbage. I don’t believe that reader listened to this album or if he did his ability to judge art is negligible.”

Read all about it.

See ya in the D next Tues. Ha! Confession: I never met Eminem. And I’m gonna try my best to keep it that way.

Believe it or not, Clifford Harris really is gonna go to jail. TMZ says it’ll be in a low security prison in Arkansas and he will report no later than noon on Day 26 May 26. And he’ll even have a jail roomie. Pause! Wonder if Tiny’s gonna give him the Whitney bearhug move on his release day, he’s gonna need it.

Word on the locker room curb, is Kobe Bryant allegedly got the Lakers fined 10K for rockin’ his custom purple-and-gold Beats By Dre headphones at a recent press conference. A wardrobe violation? Shame on you, Commissioner Stern.

This is what you’ll get after you rip the packing of your CD on Tuesday. Em’s heartfelt words to his fallen friend. R.I.P. Proof.

Big Up: Amajanese

This is the illest shit I’ve ever seen. Instant classic! I almost cried at the end.

Pt. 2. So what you gonna do?

 
Look who called into my favorite morning show. Mental note: I’m gonna sign Angela Yee to the Rap Radar Conglomerate by the end of the day. She’s sittin’ on content!

At a recent show in San Fran, Sai Giddy performed one of my favorites. The bonus track from the much-heralded XXL Raps compilation, “Come Again.” That last sentence was typed with tongue placed firmly in cheek. Oh well one day, YN will EP (Executive Producer) an album again. Ha!

Seen!!!!: 2DB via Always Hustle

Although my light-skinned brother, DJ Drama reps the ATL to the fullest, my favorite jawn (Philly style) is the last track on GG2 featuring N’awlins finest. Who needs Wayne, when we have his fellow Hot Boys B.G. and Juve? Plus, a posthumous verse from Soulja Slim. How real is that? 

{mp3}13 gotta get it featuring b.g juvenile and soulja slim{/mp3}

See ya at Best Buy on Tuesday, you bastards!

In case you ain’t figured it out yet, I’m bumpin’ that new Meth and Red. And despite my disgust of underwhelming Wu saturation, there’s indeed some heat on here. You young hip-hoppers on Twitter were right. YN’s gonna cop this one too on Tuesday.

You can’t go wrong with a good intro.

Embarrassed to admit, I don’t own this album.

Thanks Hip-Hop Is Read for making me feel like a loser. Ha!
