“I don’t talk to a bitch, man, I text a hoe/ V-A-D-O, he next to blow/ You suck first, girl you next to blow Made me bust on myself, (like who?) like Plaxico.

Not really a fan of Cam’s new helping hands, but this CM beat is so hot it makes me even think he could rhyme. You got a spot for YN in the U.N., Killa? What, pardon your back? Alright, nigga. Off that next Kay Slay mixtape, Return of The God 2

If you got close to 15 minutes to spare, here’s a full plate of hip-hop. Dig in. And oh yeah, YN’s with you Mike, it was all about Roxanne Shante and MC Lyte growing up a kid. Nuff respect to L Boogie before the breakdown, but Ms. Moorer might be my G.O.A.T.

Let’s hope this rings true.

CRITICISM OF “D.O.A.”: 
“I’m not hating on young people. Like, when people say that, I’m like, What are you talking about? It’s just stupid. I’m not hating on young people… I’m not Bill Russell, [saying] Michael Jordan ain’t shit. I’m saying Lil Wayne and Kanye are like LeBron and Kobe. My job as someone at the forefront of the game is to leave it in a better position than when I came in. Same way that Russell [Simmons] left it to me. ’Cause this thing saved my life. Literally. So I have a responsibility to it karmically. And after that it’s on you. I did my part. I made ‘D.O.A.’ I said it. I made the statement. I made the push. Here, y’all take it from here.”

HIS LEGACY AS FORMER DEF JAM RECORDS PRESIDENT: 
“So if you ask me to grade my performance as the president, I’d say A-plus. No one can bat a 100. It’s impossible. I mean, everyone is looking at my shit. But if we really looked under the hood [of] every single [record exec] and the acts they put out in that time, I’d be comparable to anyone.”

HIS STANDING IN THE GAME: 
“But when I say I’m the best, I don’t say that outta my ass. I say that with all my stats behind me. I put that against anybody. I mean anybody. I really believe that… I believe in a lot of things. 
I believe that ‘SportsCenter’ is the best thing on TV. I shouldn’t have to prove it. But I do have these stats to prove it. I’m talking about real run. I’m not talking about years off. I’m talking about straight—boom, boom, boom—back to back. We’re not talking about heritage acts either. We’re not talking about respect what I’ve done. I’m talking No. 1 [albums] 10 times. The Beatles is the only one [to have more 
No. 1 albums]. They got 19, and if I get a surge of creativity, I could make nine albums next year.”

Lyric: “Let The Beat Ride”

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_mr7mTEKbE]

“Super” producers take note. With nothing more than a mechanical pen, son crafts a dope beat (and lyrics to match). This reminds me of my days in high school. Beating on a desk, beat going to eight period math. Save the music, y’all.
