Eminem presented Dr.Dre with an ASCAP Founding Fathers Award last night at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles. It’s still a Shady/Aftermath thing, you bastards. ru x rtny

“Tryin’ to give everybody what they’ve been waitin’ for and make sure they’re not disappointed”. We all read his statement but last night on the red carpet of the ASCAP awards in LA, Devi Dev got a chance to talk to Dr. Dre face-to-face. Doc basically says the leak won’t stop him and he’s still hard at work on Detox which he hopes to have out by the end of Fall. Hold ya breath!

In tribute to the best to ever do it, I personally put together seven comps of some of my favorite MJ joints. Shout-out to EMZ for the help out. R.I.P. The King.

HHO put the ATL Brave to work at a recent visit as he performs his biggest record. Do remember: Fashionably Late is available here.
Can you say sold out? Looks like one Detroit (9/2) and one New York (9/13) show weren’t good enough. The dynamic duo have added on to their history-making Home and Home concert series. Sources confirm an additional show will go down in the D on 9/3 and in the BX on 9/14. Tickets on sale tomorrow morning at 10 am. Wow!

Oh well take a ride with Don Cannon and discover the J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League artist. Guess some MCs still do the pen to paper thing. 5:01 Overtime due July 20. os

This is it y’all. With Times Square a few blocks down, Hov had to throw in a lil taste of the Big Apple anthem. Don’t front, you know all the words. Peep Em at the end.
The G-O-D. The G-O-D. Let go my HIGO.
“Mixed feelings like a mulatto” Seriously, y’all probably don’t deserve this one. But I’m in a good mood, your lucky. Lucky Lefty took us back with this one. Gots the feeling these are the type of tunes that are gonna crack that Yankee Stadium set list. Bet on it.
Wale, in this track, shows once again his ability to blend different genres. He doesn't limit himself to hip-hop, but enriches it with R&B nuances, creating a familiar sound. This fusion is not only an exercise in style, but serves to intensify the emotional impact of the song. And then there is his ability to rap. Wale is a master at playing with words, creating complex rhymes and modulating his voice to best express his emotions. In 'Blanco', his rap part is an explosion of words that intertwine with the melody, creating a hypnotic and relaxing effect. His ability to go from moments of pure energy to moments of deep introspection is what makes this track so engaging; it reminds me of when you would slow dance, hugging your woman.
