Every now & then, a draft will get lost in the sauce. Such is the case for this clip for honda’s “Let It Out” off honda’s IV and featuring Rakaa & Money Harm. Enjoy & please forgive our slacktitude.
In ’95, DJ Premier managed to capture lightning in a bottle for the release of Livin’ Proof. On the production side, not a weak track can be found and even now it still sounds as fresh as day one. Read the rest of this entry »
Grab your stopwatch and a nice, comfy pillow, because another MC is looking to set the Guinness World Record for freestyling. That’s right, Wu-Tang affiliate (isn’t everyone?) and Toledo time-bomb M-Eighty is looking to blow away the astounding 8 hour and 45 minute title currently held by Canadian rapper D.O. (sort of).

The only thing bigger than Rick Ross’ illusion of grandeur is the level of awareness he’s been able to create for his work. Still somewhat tingling from the buzz off Deeper Than Rap (and his manufactured feud with 50 Cent), the trillionaire proceeds to take a page out the G-Unit manual as he looks to share the wealth with his own crew Triple C’s (Carol City Cartel) on their plush yet predictable collaborative effort Custom Cars & Cycles.

You’ve got to give Crooked I credit for creativity. Few are better at generating underground buzz, the latest example being the ridiculous cover to his new EP, Mr. Pigface Weapon Waist. Both cover and title suggest the project to be an adventure in weirdness. But surprisingly, there’s no stylistic difference between the Crooked I we’ve known and “Mr. Pig Face.” The creativity of the cover doesn’t carry over to the music. Read the rest of this entry »
It’s the S-N-Double O-P channeling the spirit of Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock as he eradicates the wallflowers in the process. You can rocc to this video and mixtape of the same name now, and the entire package on December 8th when Malice N Wonderland hits stores.
Without the deep pockets of a major label and promotional plugs that know no limits, the independent Hip-Hoppers of today are best compared to the bluesmen of the past: Packing into vans, sedans and caravans, taking their show on the road taking little with them but their instruments and the clothes on their back.

Terrace Martin is far from a rookie. Yet in the grand scheme of things, 2010 will most likely be his come-out year when he drops his freshman offering The Demo. He’s already earned the co-sign from nearly every West Coast legend you can name and dropped a phenomenal mixtape last year with DJ Drama. Read the rest of this entry »
Every two years or so, TQ reemerges from the shadows of late 90’s triviality to drop off a new single and give ‘er another go. Typically, the song is fairly cheesy, usually makes mention of 2Pac but it is always better than your average. “Electronic” is no different. Off the Compton son’s 2010 Koch debut, Kind Of Blue, this obviously digital dance joint is Read the rest of this entry »
“Just keep your head up & you see all the good things.”
Too often, the good that athletes do is overlooked. Whether it be for a tax write-off or for genuine good, any act that involves you taking what you have and sharing with others is respectable. Read the rest of this entry »
First of all I have to give thanks to Joey for unearthing this clip from my own backyard. I also have to give thanks to Michigan for laying down to Ohio State once again, which in turn undoubtedly gave him extra motivation to dig this up.
As we all know, Sarah Palin will not go away. While on the road promoting her latest book she made a stop at a Borders in Columbus, Ohio. The only thingworse than her still being on the national forefront are the goobers that came out to support her.
To witness the level of blind faith support for Sarah Palin is borderline scary. The stupidity caught on tape is astounding. It’s never a good sign when a group of people are in Ohio State gear and aren’t around The ‘Shoe. Watching this video I can see why people have contempt for “Buckeye Nation,” although it’s pretty obvious to see that most of these people don’t visit OSU’s campus after class hours. Shoot, I feel sorry for dude who was trying to interview them. His IQ had to drop at least 15 points listening to these fools babble on why Palin should run for President.
Top honors go to ‘ol boy in the Steelers jacket because he obviously saw all the Ohio State jackets and thought it was a tailgate. At least he can blame his idiotic responses to being under the influence of a few tall ones. So go ahead and laugh at Columbus’ expense. TC & I will continue to fight the good fight on a daily basis.
This is good, especially with the costs of fitteds rising higher than gas prices these days. 40% off @ MYFITTEDS.COM for one day only, ending @ midnight on Friday, November 27th. I like to take these opportunities to stock up on the staples. Read the rest of this entry »
