[vodpod id=Groupvideo.3568962&w=425&h=350&fv=] Initially when this song dropped, I panned it as “underwhelming.” Well, after the thousandth spin on my Hot nine-seven, its stuck in my head. I need a brain wash. With that said, check out a behind-the-scenes look from the video shoot. Props: 305
As I scrambled for the Flip Cam, Crooked I was already on his verse from “Sound Off”. But don’t fret, “Woodstock (Hood Hop)” and “The One” are captured in full after the jump.
“I want the money. I want the cars. I want the clothes. I want the ho’s” Aw Bobby, I fuckin’ feel ya. According to X, this track is two years old. Luckily for us, B.o.B. makes timeless music. Enjoy. Sidebar: If you’re in the NY area, B.o.B. is performing tonight at the Highline Ballroom. Oh, oh alright!
Next batter on deck was Papoose. He ran through some cult favorites, including “Alphabetical Slaughter.” Yeah, I was just as baffled.
Warning: This is why we don’t flip cam from the stage area. SMH.
Didn’t think I’d see this.
One of last night’s biggest ovations came for Cory Gunz. Above, he breaks the sound barrier with his rendition of “A Milli”. Below is the rest of his performance sans a freestyle.
In a recent Q&A with The New York Times, Starks reveals that he grooves to the musical stylings of Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel. You also said you like classic artists like Bruce Springsteen. He got that voice, that [makes own voice deeper], voice voice, I like him, I like Billy Joel. Remember [singing] “Uptown Girl”? I loved that. Bob Dylan, he had a nice joint, he had lyrics. Sometimes, you gotta listen — listen. Back to Springsteen and Billy […]
Even though Murda changed his name, the Brooklyn bully stuck to the script. Here, he performs “He Asked For It”, “Brooklyn”, and Mariah Carey’s favorite tune, “Bullet, Bullet.”
Pun’s baby cousin performs this summer’s guilty pleasure, “Mira Mira” on the island’s waterfront. Quit fronting, you like it too.
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.
