Crooked I’s Weeklies pretty much started all this. The constant need to one-up the next person has taken us from once a week freestyles to attempting to release multiple mixtapes @ once. I’ve only made it through two of the four consecutive tapes Gucci dropped a few weeks ago. Soulja Boy’s trilogy dropped today but I’m in no major rush to listen to it.

And now we have The Game’s attempt. Read the rest of this entry »

Yo, I sleep through horror/slasher flicks like they were Seinfeld reruns. But this joint right here…

Man, listen, if you’re eating, have a weak stomach, are carrying a baby that is literate, or are easily susceptible to nightmares skip right over this post and have a Happy Hallowe’en. Except you with the literate baby. If he can read, he should walk. Put him down and slap yourself.

It makes sense for the Liquor Store Mascot to have a slew of friends and hanger-on’s. But Homey don’t play that © Homey The Clown.  So over a loop of The Eurythmics “Sweet Dreams,” Tre decides to air them out.  I’m sure that many of you can relate to what he’s saying, because we all know someone who’s only God given talent is to beg or hold their hand out.

A little shakey dog camera footage but good audio from Mega’s Born & Raised album release party that went down @ SOB’s on Thursday. One of the highlights? Former Firm brethren AZ steps on stage for an impromptu performance of their classic “Affirmative Action.” Read the rest of this entry »
