In an interview with the NY Daily News, Roxanne Shante reiterated about Lyor’s job flipping the bill at Cornell University. After earning her PhD, cost clocked in at $217,000. Great way of pimpin’ the system Roxanne. As a college grad myself (Delaware State, what up?!), it would be a good idea for labels to provide artists with the opportunity to further their education. Afterall, dumb rappers need teaching.
No boo‘s here. This time around, Fox Boog (and her brutha) run through some classics at club Sneaky Pete’s in NY’s captial. 13 years later, and “Get Me Home” still holds up. Auto-Tune and all. Ha!
From his XXL blog:
Hussle Is My Last Name— Produced by Ralo: This record right here
is my next single. My homie Ralo who been producing for me since day
one did this record. It got a West Coast vibe to it but with a Down
South bounce. I think y’all are gonna love this. The whole concept is
anyone who’s a hustler can relate to this. If you a hustler then Hussle
Is Your Last Name. Apply that to whoever you want that hustled their
way into money. Khaled Hussle, Lebron Hussle, etc etc…

Asher P hits the club with Miss Keri Baby for his latest clip off Asleep In The Bread Aisle. Quit playing her close, she don’t wanna man. Now, gimme $20. Props: NR
Truthfullly: I’m still on the air with Angela Yee and she used her charming ways to get Leslie to let go of two hot new joints off his upcoming The Beat Made Me Do It mixtape. I like the first joint tentatively called “Love” the most. What’d you think?

[vodpod id=ExternalVideo.866343&w=425&h=350&fv=] In an effort to bring awareness to the public educational system, VH1 and MTV will air “Get Schooled” on September 8th. Above, is a 30 second clip of Wayne promoting the show. Back in 2005, I interviewed Weezy while he was “enrolled” at University of Houston for XXL. Wonder who’s going to be the first sign to Young Money Sports. Props: Broken Cool
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.
