Coming off the success of the film Takers, Breezy returns to the top of the Billboard charts for the first time in four years. This week, his Tyga collabo “Deuces” jumped to number one on the Hip-Hop/R&B Charts. Take that.
Hov took time to pay homage to hip-hop’s fallen soldiers especially Em’s homie Proof and his friend, Christopher Wallace. It’s a “Hard Knock Life” above and Iceberg Slim has “A Dream” to Aerosmith’s “Dream On” on the other side.
[vodpod id=Video.4366978&w=425&h=350&fv=] Touré was lucky enough to chop it up with Lauryn Hill backstage at the Rock The Bells concert this past weekend. She speaks on her absence from the game and her creative mind state. New album in the cards? Outlook, not so good. yardie
Marshall hittin’ up the OVO Festival had its benefits. Last night, Aubrey returned the favor and got his crazy face on as Em kicked your favorite verse from “Forever”. Motion picture shit. Word to Bron Bron.
Kendrick’s a monster on the mic. And here’s the video to prove it. Only two weeks remain until he O.D.‘s over his peers.
Jizzle is kinda like a big deal especially in the D, so it was only right Hov brought out his old tourmate. After his verse from Shawty Lo’s “Dey Know (Remix)”, Jeezy gets his “Soul Surivor” on and “Puts On” with SC as hypeman. After the jump, Da Snowman “Loses His Mind”.
Funkmaster Flex must hold the record for the longest birthday celebration. This past weekend, he brought Gucci Mane to Club Ole in Elizabeth, New Jersey. Gooch isn’t the most dynamic performer, but he did test out his new collabo with Swizz Beatz.
Thank you OG Juan for pushing Hov to perform his verse from his Rick Ross Teflon Don collabo. Is this the verse of the year like 1515 Boys’ Shaheem Reid says? Well it’s an undisputed great addition to the setlist. Ha!
[vodpod id=Video.4365236&w=425&h=350&fv=] Tricks are for kids. But B.o.B.’s new video is suitable for all ages. Here’s the visual to Bobby Ray’s chart topping single. Do you believe in magic now? os
You can’t have a Shady/Aftermath shindig without inviting Curtis. After rippin’ through “Patiently Waiting,” he takes over the show with the Unit in tow. Two of Fif’s biggest hits, “I Get Money,” and “In The Club” below. Light up!
Man, this drop from Masspike Miles is seriously smooth from start to finish. The Road Less Traveled totally delivers on that signature R&B vibe, and the production choices across these tracks are just insane. It honestly feels more complete than a lot of full-length albums out right now. Tracks like "Devoted" with Bun B and the title track hit different when you are just cruising around the city late at night. If you are heading out to grab the physical copy or hitting up a late-night listening session across town, trying to flag down reliable taxi services can sometimes be a real hassle, so planning ahead definitely saves the mood. Overall, this project proves why he is such a vital part of the Maybach crew. Definitely keep this one on repeat for a while.
