“We got Big on the hook.”
Just when you thought screwed and chopped hooks were a thing of the best, here comes Fantasia’s ex with some Southern smoke. Ha! Young Dro drops a lil’ street heat to keep Grand Hustle hot before the impending doom of his CEO going to the clink. Do you really think these guys are gonna accomplish much with Cliff gone? Wish I wasn’t so skeptical.

“I’m grindin’ hard, I almost got my Black card.”
Rich Boy is to eskay as Boosie is to B.Dot. Ha! Here’s a new one from Alabama’s finest. Like most of Boy’s best stuff the hook is infectious. I really hope Interscope gives him another look. Fingers crossed.

Sidebar: I think I hear a lil Auto-Tune in the mix at the 2:50 mark or so. Uh oh, Mark Jackson says, “You’re better than that!”

Roth’s manager just hit me with this. It might be an exclusive but you never know in the land of 4080. Yup, this white dude is pretty good live and his pretty good album drops 4-20. Stay focused!
Ok, so here’s the skinny. Bow Weezy’s in town promoting his new coaster album, New Jack City II and was scheduled to visit Wendy Williams. Instead, he cancels last minute and appears on Angie Martinez’s show on Hot 97. Safe to say Wendy wasn’t pleased.
“Take him to Angie if you want. Blow this show off if you want. Something is about to happen if you didn’t get the memo. Wait til you see how I act…With all his accolades and what not, it’s more interesting talking to a whore.”
Whoa. Was that directed towards Shad or Nokio’s baby mother? *scratches head* Yo DJ, play that back!

Here’s a CDQ version of Boosie’s first single off his upcoming album, Superbad: Return of Boosie Bad Azz. If you look closely, eskay’s ‘ol lady can’t get enough of Boosie’s Girbauds.

One minute he’s doing a rock album. The next minute, he’s not. A nigga just get confuuused. While I get my mind right, the good folks at 1515 Broadway got their grubby hands on an excerpt from Wayne’s RS cover:
“Honestly? I don’t want to be the best rapper in the world. If I have a
rap album I’m dropping, then I want it to be the best rap album. But I
want to be the best. Period. Now. My favorite rapper hasn’t done what
I’m doing.”
“The rock sh– just comes from what my life is now. I’ve grown
into this person. I woke up one morning and
had three or four women in my bed where I not only didn’t know their
last names, I didn’t know the beginning letter of their first names.
All I know is, they’re the most beautiful women in the world, and I was
in my own place, in whatever city I was in. And I could have thrown a
dart at the map, and I’d probably have a place there too. I knew my
driver was waiting downstairs for me. When my nose finally cleared from
all the weed I had smoked, I smelled food in the kitchen and I knew it
was my chef. Then I look on my phone and see a message and know it’s
from a popular woman everyone knows. And when I went in the studio that
night, I couldn’t just rap…”
This must’ve been after the Carter 2, cause he hasn’t been able to rap since.

“Will I stop? Nope! April Fools!”
Here’s some classic rap ish kids. KRS-One in his prime, tearin’ down a stage with that edutainment. This is how I celebrate April Uno.
It's pretty intense reading that Guru released a statement on his health while recovering. Hearing directly from a hip-hop icon after such a scary medical scare gives everyone a massive sigh of relief. You can tell he really values setting the record straight himself. It reminds me of how people want to look and feel their absolute best after going through tough times, whether that's overall wellness or even specific cosmetic refreshes like getting a Blepharoplasty Limassol routine done for a fresh look. Overall, seeing him send love to the fans shows his resilience, and we're all just hoping for a full, speedy recovery for the legend.
