Whether or not Bun B’s third solo album, Trill.O.G. is a classic is debatable. But one thing most can agree on, is that after 20 years in the game, Pimp’s other half knows how to maintain his relevancy without comprising his legacy nor his sound. From the opening bell, Bun takes us to “Chuuch”. He creates beautiful bliss with Young Jeezy on “Just Like That” and handles his business twice with Drake on standout cuts, “Put It Down” and “It’s […]

[vodpod id=Video.5278502&w=425&h=350&fv=%26rel%3D0%26border%3D0%26] Walk on water like Moses? Uh, we’re going to have to check the good book on that one. Anyway, Snoop Dogg makes a splash with his new video “Wet”. Can’t believe Prince William’s actually going through with this.

On some Sade shit, Talib Kweli and Hi-Tek reunited for their first album in 10 years and they did not disappoint. Underrated? Underappreciated? Slept-on? All the above. But most important is to classify Revolutions Per Minute with its rightful distinction as one of the best rap albums of the year. It’s an essential listen of a true master MC and brilliant beatmaker working together to craft substantial hip-hop songs. (R.I.P. Guru.) Whether on their own (the crafty “City Playgrounds”, the […]

24 hours after the New Year, J.Cole traveled across the pond to join Drake on their UK tour. Today he stopped by DJ Semtex‘s show on BBC1Xtra. He speaks on his European experience and everything in between. Sidebar: J.Cole In My Own Words II

Turn my music up in the headphones, Curtis. The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2011 kicked off yesterday in Vegas and Fif held a press conference to introduce his Sleek By 50 Cent headphones. The Wireless Hybrid platinum headphones will be released this year and will run you about $350.

Kanye posted the cover art to his and Jay-Z’s first single off Watch The Throne last night. Supposedly, the album’s dropping March 1st, but the song is scheduled to be released next Tuesday. Watch the Internet go H.A.M.

After today, Tiny can stand tall. TMZ has learned that due to completing 24 sessions of a certified drug program, Tameka’s drug charge was dropped by the Los Angeles D.A. It was reported today, that her hubby, T.I. was taken into a special housing unit after they violated the Arkansas State Prison’s visitation regulation for a sexual act during their visit last weekend. Look ma, hands!

[vodpod id=Video.4066597&w=425&h=350&fv=%26rel%3D0%26border%3D0%26] Although Larry Hoover and Big Meech are doing football numbers in the pen, Rick Ross kept their names relevant with the biggest song of last year, “B.M.F. (Blowing Money Fast)”.  He doesn’t do it alone though. Along with Styles P and Lex Luger’s belligerent drums, Ross’ prodigal chant was echoed from the window to the wall and beyond. Sorry Jeezy, but the summer was his. Bawse. Previously: #10 Speaking In Tungs | #9 Fuck You! |#8 Airplanes 2| […]

Six days into the new year, B.Dot‘s favorite rapper pours out a little liquor and does his traditional salute to all those lost last year. R.I.P.

Tupac Shakur got these niggas gassed. Take that prison bid and then when you touch the town, hit the studio and soon you’ll be the undisputed #1 rapper. Maybe Wayne will pull this off. But T.I. certainly couldn’t. After his much heralded release, The Kang started last spring to attempt to get his career on track. But from “I’m Back” to his song from Takers (“Yeah Ya Know”) to that horrible collabo with Ms. Hilson (“Got Your Back”), Cliff struggled […]
