“Text message from Elliott sayin’ tape is dope.” It’s hard not to be bias on this one. With my encouragement, Wale returned to his mixtape roots after his debut album, Attention Deficit didn’t ignite. Be clear: We shut the Internet down on Aug. 3, 2010 when More About Nothing, the super sequel to 2008’s Mixtape About Nothing dropped. Seinfeld samples still intact and the raps are sharp. Mr. Folarin tackles his adversity on the opening rockers (“The MC” and “The […]
[vodpod id=Video.5261206&w=425&h=350&fv=] With Late Nights & Early Mornings arriving next month, Marsha puts together a motion picture for her second single produced by Just Blaze. What a flick and an ending. No spoilers here.
Kings get remembered in time. Good thing Big K.R.I.T. left his mark last year with his mixer, K.R.I.T. Wuz Here. With respect to David Banner, Mississippi’s an uncharted territory. But K.R.I.T. brings listeners to his neck of the woods with backwood cuts like “Country Shit” and “Hometown Hero”. As far as collaborations goes, he holds his own on the standout “Glasshouse” with Curren$y and Wiz Khalifa. Then on the spaced-out, “Moon And Stars”, his melodic harmonies constellate with Devin The […]

Hard work pays off. And after six weeks, Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday, has clocked a million units. Salute. Salute. She also becomes the first New York rapper since Lloyd Banks to go platinum with a debut album. hhnm
CyHi Da Prynce has been dealt a good hand. Not only is he signed to Kanye’s G.O.O.D. Music, but his latest mixtape, Royal Flush proves that he’s not bluffing around. Da Prynce’s majesty lies in his clever wordplay. He does this throughout on tracks like “Sideways”, “Hero” and “So Original.” Another key component is his subject matter. Want drama? Well, he’s got a “Bunch Of Rounds” for that ass. For all the Playboy bunnies, live “Like A Swinger”. And for […]

Guess smokin’ out wasn’t the only thing Snoop & Wiz were up to in the lab last week. Here’s what they were cookin’ up and it sounds like we got another smoker’s anthem. Yea, it’s that good. 2db Sidebar: Snoop talks about the new track on UStream.
This is a great reminder of how powerful and lasting Lauryn Hill’s influence has been in music. The fact that The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill eventually reached diamond status after so many years shows that truly meaningful music can continue finding new listeners long after its original release. I also like how the article highlights the combination of hip hop, R&B, neo soul, and reggae that made the album so distinctive. Achieving more than 10 million sales is an incredible milestone, especially considering how much the music industry has changed since 1998. The album’s success feels less like a temporary trend and more like proof that strong songwriting and authentic artistic expression can remain relevant across generations. It is interesting to see how numbers can tell part of a story, whether we are looking at album sales or using a proportion calculator to understand relationships between different figures.
