All White Everything.

It’s still all gold everything. And this evening, Trinidad James has begun filming the video for his remix

Hit-Boy swung by the LA Leakers to premiere his latest remix featuring 2 Chainz. The original audio can be found off his recent mixtape, HITstory. UPDATE: Hit-Boy has confirmed signing with Interscope. UPDATE 2: Now with footage of announcement.

Before accepting his “Street Soldier” honor during last night’s Hip Hop Inauguration Ball at the Harman Center for the Arts in D.C., Tity Boi speaks on his contribution with the “Respect My Vote” campaign. “I’ve been a felon since I was 15 years old, and I found out you could reinstate your votership. So … I wanted to use my platform [to] go notify [other] felons about what they can do to get their voices heard, and go out and […]

2 terms, 2 sold-out shows. Last night, The Fillmore in Silver Spring, MD hosted 2 Chainz’

49ers WR Michael Crabtree may have been the star during their 45-31 win over the Packers yesterday. But after closing out the game, 2 Chainz was the highlight of the NFL Network post-game chat. Security!

Birthday’s come once a year, but 2 Chainz’s hit “Birthday Song” won’t go away. Outside of the gentleman’s club, the track is a grating listen. Chainz opens his verse with the flat line “She got a big booty, so I call her ‘Big Booty’”. Matters are made worse with the ridiculous chorus, “When I die, bury me inside the Gucci store/When I die, bury me inside the Louie store.” Kanye eventually shows up to the party, but fails to leave […]

Make no mistake, 2 Chainz gets by with a lil help from his friends on his Def Jam debut. Most notably Kanye West (“Birthday Song”) and the YMCMB familia (Lil Wayne on “Yuck”, Drake on “No Lie”, Nicki Minaj “I Luv Dem Strippers”). But although Tity Boi is well connected, my favorite moments on Based On A T.R.U. Story are when he elected to go for self. “Crack” is an essential head-nodder. “Dope Peddler” is punchy and playful and “I’m […]

Bandz will certainly make her dance, but it was Juicy J’s stripper anthem that kept the pussies poppin’ on a handstand. Embedded over Mike Will Made It’s hypnotic beat, Juicy J opens up the track and even welcomes the ratchet ones (“You say no to ratchet pussy, Juicy J can’t”). As a frequent customer at King of Diamonds, Tunechi even serenades Big Booty Judy (“What’s ya real name, and not your stripper name?”). But when it was all said and […]

Truth be told, 2 Chainz made no mistake to push his duet with Drake as his debut’s lead single. Over Mike Will Made It’s smooth production, 2 Chainz keeps his boisterous tone, but slow walks through his unorthodox flow (“I take ya girl and kidnap her/Feed her to my mattress/A skeleton in my closet, it’s probably one of these dead ass rappers”). Champagne Papi’s guest verse may be the center of attention, but it’s his infectious hook that’s truly irresistible. […]
