For “Betrayed,” pitfalls and perils push Bad Azz and Webbie to find that undeniable chemistry on wax, the sh*t that seemed lost for so long and could never be replicated with the assortment of Trill weed carriers who’ve attempted to try. Read the rest of this entry »

Yes I’m still calling LeBron “NorBel” thanks to this wonderful story.
Anyway, let me find out Pitbull Carlos Arroyo has some court vision. He could bear to push the ball like this more often since this is the kind full court offense Miami thrives on. Of course asking Arroyo to dish alleys regularly from half court is ridiculous. Read the rest of this entry »
Nope, I don’t know who The Academy is, either. But, the better end of the holiday season’s bell curve is in full swing and my other employer let me out early today, so apparently this mysterious MC/producer duo perfectly timed the release of their free-spirited intoxicant, “#ItsOn,” to coincide with free time on my schedule.

And by “hustlin’,” this means still on the road promoting everything associated with his brand. Someone once said, “hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.” In the case of Big Boi, it’s the two working together in harmony to create positive results. After worrying if we would ever see the release of any new music from the big homie only months ago, Read the rest of this entry »
The good and bad. Sweet and sour. This or that. Polar opposites come along every facet of life’s little adventures and sometimes that balance makes it all worth living; keeps you on toes. Skewby’s grizz-n-grind keeps him focused through an unexpected curveball or three and it’s those principles that he used to sculpt his latest LP, More Or Less. Serene in his approach with healthy doses of vigorous lyricism, if you’re not up on one of the South’s best kept secrets, this project is awaiting you with inviting ears.

The holiday’s here and time’s sparse, but we still wanted to pass along a few Christmas tracks that have popped up over the past few days. Who knows if one of these may become the new Christmas standard, therefore it’s important to pass them along now instead of later. I’m taking the lazy route and just tossing them all in one post. Consider it a crudely wrapped gift but given with warm wishes and intentions. Read the rest of this entry »
First Rick Ross looked to kill his enemies with The Albert Anastasia EP. Then he sought to murder his competition with Teflon Don. Now he’s overseeing the immolation of the opposition on Ashes To Ashes. Oops, did I just say the same thing three different ways? Well, welcome to The Ricky Rozay Show! It’s nothing but heaps of materialism masked with a flow that can do the backstroke in a tidal wave. Read the rest of this entry »

Well, it looks like choosing Jay-Z over Diddy is doing more for Jay Electronica than just forcing him to put out more than one record per year. He’s now secured himself a Mountain Dew endorsement that serves as the icing on the cake. Although he’s still a relatively unknown in the commerical world, I’d say it is a good starting point, and if the execs are satisfied, then there’s definitely potential for him to rep the big guns.

Brothers and sisters! Brothers and sisters! Today, we got something old and something new for you peoples to rock to! For you mid-to-older crowd like most of us TSS Crew, you didn’t think actually think Diggy was tackling classic Premo production for sh*ts and giggles did you? Never that; Young Simmons knows exactly what obstacles he faces and to cater to your nostalgic whims, he recruited the living legend himself—DJ Premier—to mix and host his Christmas gift to haters and fans alike with Past Presents Future.

The holiday mixtape wave continues with the Jonny Shipes long anticipated Goodtalk, Vol. 9 finally available for public consumption. To be quite honest, I can’t remember the last time I anticipated a mixtape which wasn’t based around one specific artist. However, with a slew of songs from Rugz D. Bewler, Curren$y and a whole heap of new records from Big K.R.I.T. – who also plays double duty as the tape’s host – consider me interested and my enthusiasm curved. Read the rest of this entry »
The San Antonio Spurs may be virtually unbeatable but J.R. Smith still has their number when it comes to posterizing the defenders. Last time, it was Gary Neal who was victim to an aerial attack. Now, Timmy D. gets frozen in his stance as J.R. simply spins past him—in the air. Read the rest of this entry »
Tis the season of giving and Tef Poe comes bearing gifts in the form of a new mixtape. Of course, War Machine may not be something you play while walking over the hills and through the woods to grammas house, unless your family’s matriarch is into loud beats and boisterous, twisted lyrics from STL’s rising star.
