Jada kicks it on 57th Ave and touches on everything from KFC grilled chicken to Puffy wanting No Security to be released on Bad Boy. Personally, I wouldn’t recommend it.

The NMC unleashed this last night. But the homie from the U.K., Adanan “Killer” Khan just hit me with the CDQ. The inside word from Atlantic is this is one of the five new songs included in the Paper Trail re-release due in early Sept. Joint is a lil’ overly dramatic, but I can dig it.

Once Again: Team Supreme

Guess it’s time for Kanye to fully present his new protege, Mr. Hudson a.k.a. the blonde-haired white boy from the U.K. And you say Chi-City?

Bonus: On the telly from Hawaii, Mr. West reveals to Radio One that this song was originally intended for 808s. He also plugs his upcoming “Paranoid” video featuring Rihanna. Is ‘Ye quietly planning to give Drake’s “Best I Ever Had” a run for summer banger? Hey, he’s got a shot.

Big Props: Team Supreme

Fresh from Shade 45, The Ratchet goes in with a 1,000 bars over Red Cafe and David Banner beats.

Sounds like you-know-who to me. Just think, a whole new generation of young MC’s inspired by Lil Wayne. Guess Weezy doesn’t have to impregnate every girl in the world to have a village of kids. The future’s bleek/bleak like Memphis. Ha!

Tony Neal, DJ Neal, and Derek Juan of the Core DJ’s speak on the importance of the DJ and breaking new artists. 

I made this point a couple days on Twitter. I know everyone currently has a hard on for Drake, but I feel more DJ’s need to step up to the plate. The public eats whatever you feed them, and frankly, I’m malnourished. There are tons several emerging artists, like B.o.B., that sling good product but aren’t getting their just due. Video didn’t kill the radio star, so please, don’t butcher me with bad music.

The self proclaimed new comer of last summer, returns home for a performance in the T Dot. At the 6:48 mark, Uncle Bun lends him a hand on “Uptown.” I’m still gobsmacked by this guys popularity.

Reggie speaks to Thisis50 on the new album, Blackout 2 and the delay of How High 2.

“We want How High 2 to come out. Universal do not not see it our way. Do a new movie for the fans out there. We can not call it How High 2. We can not use our charcters, Jamal and Silas. Basically, we have to come up with a whole new weed movie.”

Maybe I’m out the loop, but I didn’t know John Legend’s babe bro was a singer. Hell, I didn’t even know he had a brother. In any event, here he is performing this morning on Good Day New York. Off the vocals alone, you can tell their sprouted from the same gene pool.
