Hello my good people, Hope your holiday(s) are going well. I know it's been hella long since I posted music for ya. I've been a very busy lady lately. For the two weeks I was away, I have been jamming this fly ass instrumental EP titled "And I Love Her" by The Audible Doctor. All of this project is sampled by The Beatles track "And I Love Her", hence the title. The project is done with much style and grace. You know how much I love the sampled sound and this is one that you NEED in your life. I'm diggin the smooth sample chops, they aren't rigid and awkward like many tracks I've heard before. I'm always down for the more soulful tracks and this EP definitely dishes it out. It is surely in my favorite beat tapes for the last half of this year along with Vinyl Richie and Waves. You will most def rock to this..... links below. Peace.
Yesterday T.I. released the trailer for "Trap Back Jumpin" from his upcoming "Trouble Man: Heavy is the Head" album. Now.....I'm not knockin' T.I. but shouldn't he be staying AWAY from the Trap? But then again, this IS entertainment. Lol i'm sure it'll be a hit though. Trailer below.... Check The Album Artwork at the end though.......... ehhhhhh.......
Kid Cudi is known for his avant garde stylings in music and this is no different. Check out his recent trippy video "Just What I Am" featuring King Chip. It looks like they had fun making this video... and yeah I am jammin' this at 8am :) Shout out to Casfly for sharing this, I was completely unaware he had new music! Video below.....
Today is the anniversary death of the rapper Pimp C from rap duo UGK. If you are from the south or just love Hip Hop in general, you know about Pimp C. The twang in his voice, outlandish outfits, and of course the pimp cup in hand. ALL rappers from the south must give respect to UGK because they definitely help put the south on the map. :pours out 40 oz: RIP homie.... One of my favorite video and song feat Outkast ..... he died that year as well. I love the fact all the southern MCs/entertainers are making cameos as well. Good Stuff.....
Peace to you....... Eve gives us a remix to Brandy's 'Put It Down'. and um personally.....I felt it should've been her from jump because we all know E-V-E is that chick. Check it out.
So...... T.I. is back with a new track titled 'Sorry' this song seems to be the first single i've heard off of his upcoming album "Trouble Man: Heavy Is The Head" It features Outkast member Andre 3000 who is also known as the the invisible man. We all know how touch and and go 3k can be, so when he does show his face it's time to pay attention. As for T.I., I would like to see him back on the top where he belongs and represent for southerners like myself. The reality shows are ok, but honestly I rather hear some rhymes. This is a very personal song for the both of them and spill all guts on the track. Andre appears to be addressing his rap duo counterpart Big Boi on this track along with a few others. I am posting lyrics below along with video as I feel they should be read. There's in there message somewhere.... hmm? Check it out.

My cup runneth over with pinot grigio, hold up
You bogus in the lambo if you ain't lifting the door up
You bogus popping pills if you ain't picking the ho up
You bogus running out on your kids my nigga grow up
For God's sake, like a wedding cutting large cake
For large stakes let the hammer bang broad day
Aye, nevermind what the blogs say
This what my mind and my heart say
My philosophy profit off of my properties
Get it, flip it, we got to be rich, that broke shit is obsolete
Possibly off of my rocker, watch how you watching me
Sophisticated, psychotic, fly as a pilot
Officially silent, all you wish you could get I got it
Unlimited titanium nigga, what's in yo wallet?
Out of gladiator college, I made it summa cum laude
While you clowns couldn't have got a cap and gown if you bought it
I parlay with Saudis, buying crude oil and diamonds
Hustle January, July, fly to Dubai
A broke nigga telling me about how I'm dividing the pies
Like a blind nigga telling me it's an eye for an eye
Bullheaded and stubborn I be that way until I die
But find a nigga with more hustle then me I dare you to try
And according to the hand on my Audemar
It's my time to shine so fuck y'all
{Hook}
What should I be sorry for
Who should I be sorry to
What should I be sorry for
Who should I be sorry to
The fact is you can't please everybody
You can't please everybody
What should I be sorry for
Who should I be sorry to
{T.I.}
I grew up in the gutter life a motherfücker
I get that why I don't trust a motherfücker
Seen a nigga snitch on they mom, shoot at they brother
Go to prison in love with a bÃtch and a nigga fuck her
I seen real G's destroyed by real suckers
Innocent ladies raped and defenseless babies abducted
Such a horrible truth but you see it over and over
It's nothing, get numb to it and your heart grow colder
Pacify your pain with a chain and a Rover
Fück it, justify your action with stacking your dough up
You show up with a brick of cocaine and baking soda
Just enough for me to blow up, nigga hold up
Switch the flow up, cause these niggas be snitching so much
I promise all they missing's the badge, coffee and doughnut
Go to jail so what, never see my integrity perish
That ain't the Harris' way, study my pedigree
Promise I'm one of the only ones who keep it 100
Probably why I think they all out to get me, you can't convince me
Large money and fame will plant seeds of envy
To make my partners resent me enough to come and get me
Catch me slipping and hit me, just like they did 50
Cause I'm in the position that he think he should be given
Listen, dawg, the fact of the matter is
I'm on a narrow path and we all can't travel
{Hook}
What should I be sorry for
Who should I be sorry to
What should I be sorry for
Who should I be sorry to
The fact is you can't please everybody
You can't please everybody
What should I be sorry for
Who should I be sorry to
{Andre 3000}
What it ain't, What it is? Even if you gotta live
I learned that apartment is way more exciting than a big ass house on a hill
I used to be a way better writer and a rapper
When I used to want a black Karmann Ghia
Now a nigga speeding in a Porsche
Feeling like I'm going off a course, cut these fuck niggas off
Nigga TIP in my life scream that till I'm horse
Duck these get the fück off me projectiles, bÃtch you ain't really got a choice
I'm living my life live yours
I don't even like rapping fast, but that's how the world come to me
Talk to me sideways nigga that's your ass
Slow it down, this that shit that'll make you call your momma
Say hey I'm sorry for begging for all them clothes you couldn't afford
And this the type of shit that'll make you call your rap partner
And say I'm sorry I'm awkward, my fault for fücking up the tours
I hated all the attention so I ran from it
Fück it if we did, but I hope we ain't lose no fans from it
I'm a grown-ass kid, you know ain't never cared about no damn money
Why do we try so hard to be stars, just to dodge comments
And this that shit that'll make you call your baby mama
When you gone on half a pill, don't know why but that I did
Then you take a flight back to the crib, y'all make love like college kids
And you say all the shit you gon' do better, we can try this shit again
Round the time the dope wear off, you feel stupid, she feel lost
That's that dope, I mean, I mean dopamine you think Cupid done worn off
Waiting in the hallway with her arms crossed
Her baby boy face full of applesauce
Maybe should have stayed but it ain't your fault
Too much pressure, I fell off, I'm sorry!
Was young and had to choose between you
And what the rest of the world might offer me, shit what would you do?
Well I'd probably do it differently if second the chance
Only if some cool ass older man would've let me know in advance
This, this quarry, that is dug so deep in a father's chest
When he feel that he's broken up his nest
And he figured shit he was just doing the best that he could
Which end up being the worst that he could
And all some pussy nigga on the internet can say is that verse ain't good
It's boring, boring? Really? Hahaha
When I'm disgusted with this world and I can hardly breathe
Told so many lies, don't know what to believe
I discussed it with this girl and this is what she said
She said lay down baby, baby rest your weary head up
I love these distractions but my mind don't wanna rest
But my body disagree so I laid up on her breasts, yes
Oh, you are so fücking fine
I woke up the next morning with new purpose on my mind
Oh, who pulls your ponytail, who knows your body well?
This was highly entertaining and one of the best interviews of Kendrick I have seen this year. Look how surprised he is when Nardwuar starts talking about Compton and some of it's old school artists. Dude is on point! Check out the vid.....
Peace, I have here a recent release By GOLDFingers. If you haven't heard it already, click the link below to listen/download. Something I'm sure you can vibe to. :)
Good afternoon, just wanted to share this with you. I had the pleasure of hearing this at a poetry workshop last night. It's a enjoyablelaid back track by Barrington Levy. I think the title fits it perfectly. :)
Peace Hip Hop heads......There has been much talk of a new J Cole album but no set date. Well that has all changed with the release of the trailer titled "Born Sinner". I am intrigued to hear what the first single will be and if this will top his debut album Cole World- The Sideline Story or even Friday Night Lights. Trailer below....
Always been a fan of Twista but do you remember the movie Coach Carter?? I know it's not that old but these were my teen years, so bare with me. Very inspirational movie and song though.
Peace, check out ReBel's latest Track called "Revelation". I'm diggin it. Yes, it is short but still a good track so that just means you'll have to put it on repeat. What do you think? Links below...
Peace Hip Hop Heads........ I feel the need to share this. 'Tis the season to be jolly-- I mean political. Kudos to Killer Mike to having the balls to do this. Imagery. Jeez. Shout out to Chrissy for sharing. Video below.....
So. We meet again.... I Hope your Friday is going well. This project titled Boom Bap Soul Vol. 1 is a treat for Hip Hop heads to enjoy. She gives us a soulful and hip flow over some classic hits like LL Cool J's "Doin' It" and Mobb Deep's "Shook Ones." I will say although I'm no singer(no where close), It's not easy for some singers to turn Hip Hop themed tracks into something soulful AND make it their own. However, she seems to get the job done and well. I definitely enjoyed this piece from beginning to end and because I did I felt I had to pass it on to you guys. I'll mos definitely be anticipating the release of volume 2. By the way that intro.... Vibe out to that. Links below...... Peace. Good Vibes and Energy. :)
Peace. Check out Vinny Virgo's latest video titled wanting you. The video definitely matches this chilled out track. Video and "Me, Myself and High" mixtape link below. Enjoy :)
Check out Beyobe's first instrumental project titled Vinyl Richie. Dropped recently on the 28th All 19 tracks are produced himself and are an eargasm. My favorite track would definitely have to be Summer Time. It is wavy. Get into this. ASAP. Check it out below.
Peace, peoples check out Craig Tillman's first project The Oddball. I actually got to preview some of the tracks at the listening party and I enjoyed them very much. It kinda lets you peek in and see who he is as an artist. This is vibe music that definitely deserves spot on the ipod(as if I have anymore room). Glad to see the homie doing his THANG. Shout out to Scott Aye, Mike Mass, Santos, EMP, and all the producers on this project. Shout out to Bluuzone also, y'all doin' it up! download link below :)
FlyLo releases a short film from his upcoming project Until The Quiet Comes, which is set to be released October 2. It is an instrumental that is more than a mouth full. Let's remember he is a Dilla baby, so I would not expect nothing less than great. The video is beautiful. To me at least. Can you spot FlyLo anywhere in the vid? It's a rare sighting but he's there. Check it. Makes you wonder what its going to be like when you die.......
IsaiahThe3rd releases yet another project this year for us to vibe with. I see growth! He had me rockin' a lil bit, production is pretty nice also. Good look. Get into that DL link below:)
What up world, hope your labor day weekend is going well. Check out this mixtape called Euphoria from Moruf and Iman Omari(one of my guilty pleasures). It is definitely wavy to the 3rd degree. I really enjoyed this, it eases the mind. It is worth the listen and download. It poses a good question though, what do you define as your own personal euphoria or highest level of ecstasy?? Still figuring what mine is...... :) Listen/DL link below.
Finally!!!!!! :happy dance: It is ALIVE!!! ENON gives us his fifth production and her name is Waves. My Monday night has been made. Now get into that wavey ish. mmmhmmmmm chile. hahaha Download link below.......
Peace to you, This mixtape is coming to you from one of my favorite New Yorkers living in the Tampa Bay area. Mike Mass is the shit. and there you have it. This is for all you people who say hip hop is dead. Trust when I say it is alive and doing very WELL. Download link below........
Afternoon Peoples..... So we have gone over my love for beat tapes too many times before so we'll skip all that. CEO and Papa Smurf of music label Digging In The Crates Music Group AKA DITCMG finally releases another soulful beat tape that you can vibe with, or relax and maybe sip a glass of wine while listening(maybe that's just the alcoholic in me). I really hope you enjoy this Soulful Smoothie as much as I do. Don't sleep on it! Download link below.
This Hip Hop mixtape is a very smooth and soulful geared towards the ladies. I was hooked as soon as I heard the intro. You gotta check it out. ASAP. This tape features prodigies Hometown Hero, Scott Aye, and Craig Tillman from the music collective that is Bluuzone. We also a very sweet appearance from miss J'nelle. Love her! Download link below....
Peace hip hop fiends, hope you are all having a music filled weekend. Sorry for the delay in posts but I had a fight with my computer and unfortunately I lost, but I am back on it now. SO.... the KRIT concert was amazing!!! It was packed and I had such a great time with my fellow hip hop cohorts, they helped make the experience 10x better. Krit performed some songs from the album, but mainly his mixtape joints.... which is mainly what everybody wanted anyway. I had the exclusive seat which was on top of my cousin's shoulders (Shoutout to Travis BTW). I got to be eye level with him and anybody that was there can attest to the fact that I was indeed THE livest person in that piece. haha. Ugh. It was mad dope. The opening acts were pretty dope also. This included Tito Lopez, Andrew Floyd, Big Sant, Casey Veggies, Josh Saint, Vagabonds, and Marlon Ponce. I'm so glad I came early so I could see everyone. The DOPENESS. Check out the video and pics below......
