Here’s a modern day throwback. Remember Saigon? Well here he is. Amalgam Digital just let this one go and are still promising Warning Shots 2 on Sept 29. But like all Sai Giddy release dats it’s subject to change. Man, I still want a copy of Greatest… nevermind!
Previously: Saigon “Come Again” (Live)
Bonus: WS2 Tracklist.

“The banned man with a band” sounds cool but I don’t see it.
And wait: 7:57-8:37??
Looks like they dealt my nigga Da Snowman a bad hand.
Bonus: Ok, I see a drummer now. And the lights are out. That’s a better look.

Here’s some new material courtesy of Dwayne Carter and Just Blaze. Wayne’s ‘phors and similes are intact, but that flow? Not so much. I think it’s time for an intervention.

Bonus: Weezy salutes the Notorious One.
Update: My fellow half-Black hit me with the official version of his song that LowKey leaked today.
Mr. Thanksgiving says:
The leaked version was the version before I did hooks. And I broke up his verses. I named it million dollar baby cuz I’m wayne’s boxing coach on the song and its a three round fight. bells and all. Just blaze was gonna be the announcer at end but we never finished it.

Ms. Keri baby, sat down with Alexa Chung this afternoon and talked about rappers smelling goods and how she would never strip down to her birthday suit in a movie. *Yawn* After the jump, check out her performance of “Knock You Down.”

Unfortunately, Lil Wayne is still fiddlin’ around with his guitar. At last night’s show in Scranton, Birdman Jr. went from butcherin’ Run-DMC’s classic to his own rocker “Prom Queen.” You remember that song? That was the lead single off The Rebirth. You know? The album that’s never comin’ out.
Bonus: Karen Civil went to the show last night and you didn’t.

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.
