And the winner is Hov… Finding it hard to keep up with our lists? OK, you’re right. Here’s comes some full recaps of this week’s festivities just so you can go argue with your friends over the weekend. Shit, traffic’s up. Turn that naysayer talk down. You don’t like our choices. Make some better ones. Y’all a bunch of suckers for these shits. #1 Jay-Z Blueprint 3 #2 Raekwon Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II #3 Kid Cudi Man On […]
What more can I say to you? You heard it all. Hov already told you it’s his “album” of the year. (At least before BP3 dropped. Ha.) Okay, you love to hear the story again and again so here goes. Aubrey Graham was a child actor who became a rap star with the right music at the right time. The masses made “Best I Ever Had” and “Successful” hits before anyone got Drizzy’s name on the dotted line. But it […]
Don’t front you know Ed got you open this past year, coining one of hip-hop’s strongest new catchphrases. It’s a daily operation of today’s stars doin’ dumb shit and now two words sum up our collective feelings: C’mon son. Here’s a salute to the dubious ones who kept us chitter-chattering about them in the last year of the past decade. Watch the video and then get your vote on here.
You gotta hand it to Alicia. Unlike pretty much every other artist on the planet, she doesn’t oversaturate herself to stay hot. She does it the old school way. Takes a significant hiatus in between albums and comes back with nothing but her finest material. The single choices have been rock-solid so far. “Doesn’t Mean Anything” is dandy. “Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart” is thrilling. And while I appreciate her trying to make a Beyonce collabo work (“Put It […]

How bout a old school break? Been meaning to put this up but as you can see it’s been a pretty busy week. Anyways, a couple of days ago on his SwiftFM channel, Q-Tip shared an early Brand Nubian demo recorded about 20 years ago. As you’ll hear the content was probably a lil too strong for some and didn’t make their classic All For One. Ironically, Grand Puba would take plenty of his rhymes here and make a song […]
Both weathering the storm, if Chris Brown’s music was good Rihanna’s was even better. While Chris pretty much avoided the hot topic on his CD, Ri-Ri went all the way there from the cover art to the cussin’ like a sailor to the creepy “Cold Case Love”. “Wait Your Turn” and “Russian Roulette” may have been too dark pop for plenty of people’s tastes but there’s no denying the Jeezy collabo “Hard,” which still sounds as good to me as […]

We were all geeked for the return of the Mixtape Weezy. So excited, that this project prematurely leaked. Then on Halloween, four new songs were quickly added. The Cool and Dre produed title track was one of them which contained one of my favorite chrouses, “Pop that pussy and shake your ass. No Ceilings!” Ha. Seriously, there’s a lot to enjoy here. Even hit-and-miss Minaj shines on B’s “Sweet Dreams”. Still Dwayne is large and the one in-charge as he […]
There’s not a doubt in my mind that if Breezy hadn’t socked Ri-Ri, “I Can Transform Ya” would’ve been one of the hugest records of the past year. I don’t care what you say, that Swizz Beatz stutter-step track knocks and it’s not the only good song to be found here. Ebro’s DJs at NY’s Hot 97 have made it abundantly clear that Chris’ sly Fenty-reference rocker “Famous Girl” should be the next single. I’ve yet to watch the video […]

[…] Busta Rhymes’ revelation about the Roxy incident offers fans a rare glimpse into a moment that could have escalated into something much bigger. But thanks to the power of music—and the quick thinking of Kid Capri—the night ended on a high note. It’s a story that reminds us of the way hip hop can unite as much as it divides, and how even in moments of tension, the culture finds a way to move forward. […]
