When it comes to the money, Fabby Davis isn’t one to slow down. And with that being said, here’s his newest video. Overall, the visual and the song are average for our taste. Ain’t that a bitch.
Well, at least somebody said it. After hearing Nicki Minaj’s new record “Starships“, Hot 97’s Peter Rosenberg called the track “one of the most sellout songs in hip-hop history”. Hard to argue with that. Nicki’s been on a hardcore decline since that fake Lil’ Kim poster.
Back in 2008, Dot Da Genius produced a track for Cudder that was never released. After 4 years of waiting, he drops it today on his Twitter. This is pretty, well, dope.
This bitch, that hoe. But for Juicy J’s video of the day off the

Technically, this is Crooked I’s recording. But, the gang’s all here. On the production end, the track’s produced by Boi-1da. As far as lyrics go, Royce Da 5’9 is a muthafuckin’ monster. Psalm 86:2 drops next month. lowkey
FADER‘s cover subjects are always out the box. And for their Spring Style issue, Kendrick Lamar and Danny Brown get their shine on. Issue hits newsstands March 6th, but you can read K-Dot’s story here and Danny’s here.
Too $hort’s new album won’t be out for another week (Feb 28th), but he’s not waiting until then to release another video. Here’s his new clip featuring crooner, Martin Luther. Looks like everyone’s down with O.P.P.
[vodpod id=Video.16114255&w=540&h=350&fv=] Drum roll please. According to MTV, Rick Ross has been crowned as this year’s Hottest MC In The Game Congrats to the Bawse. Whether on his own singles (“You the Boss,” “I Love My Bitches”) or on tracks that he was featured on, the M-I-Yayo MC turned in multiple unforgettable performances. “Ima Boss” was technically Meek’s song, but the casual listener may have missed that fact. Lil Wayne’s “John” was basically a remix of the 2010 Ross track […]
[vodpod id=Video.16114255&w=540&h=350&fv=] With the release of one of the best albums of the past year with Take Care, Drizzy comes in as the runner-up on this year’s list. Drake’s dominance is well-documented, from SoundScan success to extraordinarily extensive radio play. As an artist, the Young Money standout blends R&B melody and alternative sensibilities with an MC’s bravado. While still spitting bars with some of the game’s most highly regarded lyricists, his emotive writing style made it acceptable for rappers to […]
Great breakdown of Statik Selektah’s *Round Trip*! Honestly, this 2023 Mass Appeal release is pure boom-bap bliss from start to finish. Statik really outdid himself with those smooth, jazzy sample flips and turntable scratches, creating the exact kind of laid-back, golden-era hip-hop vibe you want playing in the background while relaxing at Denmark holiday cottages over a quiet weekend. The guest list alone is stacked—having legends like Posdnous kicking things off on the opener "Round Trip (For Dave)" alongside heavy hitters like Method Man, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, and Inspectah Deck on "Unpredictable" makes every track feel like a proper event. Even the newer-school features like Benny the Butcher, Conway the Machine, and Joey Bada$$ fit effortlessly over the dusty, soulful production without a single wasted verse. Definitely one of his most cohesive projects in years and an easy front-to-back spin for anyone who appreciates real hip-hop craftsmanship.
