Saigon Continues To Triumph As A Great Orator

04.11.11 Written by TC

Saigon already picked his poison. His decision to be a torchbearer and flag-waver for the culture is the road less traveled when you only have one shot to make it. That shot may have resulted in thousands of days waiting in limbo, but those who experienced The Greatest Story Never Told know the wait only blessed Hip-Hop with the kind of product that has been lost in this current state of music.

Kid Vishis Feat. Royce Da 5’9″ – “The Execution”

04.11.11 Written by Trackstar The DJ

The D got bars and this much has been evident for over a decade. Since Marshall came in the game with syllables to spare, he’s been followed by a consistent parade of talented lyricists come through the pipeline. From Obie Trice to Elzhi to 2010 Red Bull champion Fowl, it’s clear that steel sharpens steel in the Motor City. And if just living in the same city as such luminaries spurs MCs to higher heights, one can imagine that being the younger brother of one of the city’s ambassadors can’t hurt.

Amber Rose Went To The Beach & Lost Her Top

04.11.11 Written by Gotty™

Now, our friends who support TSS, they wouldn’t feel too happy about seeing Amber’s bare boobies again, even though we know, dear readers, that you enjoy such things. But we promise you if click each pic, you can find your happy place, a nippled-nirvana of sorts. Read the rest of this entry »

Smoke DZA – T.H.C. (The Hustler’s Catalog)

04.11.11 Written by TC

Can we go ahead and give DZA his own strand of O.G. Kush already? The man reps for marijuana like a D.A.R.E. commercial (just on the opposite spectrum). Amazingly though, Big Smoke Dog has avoided the four walls and convenient roofing of being boxed in as “weed rapper” as he consistently paints his life’s memoirs in between the papers lines, amongst the blunt ashes.

On My Five Current Songs For Spring

04.11.11 Written by Gotty™


The past weekend, temperatures in Tennessee teetered on the brink of 90 degrees. While the rise in mercury posed challenges towards staying cool and dry, the warmer weather brought about the lowering of car windows and the ceremonial unveiling of selected tracks for perhaps unwilling participants in the listening experience while they idled beside me at red lights.

A Righchus Form Of “Free Speech”

04.11.11 Written by J. Tinsley

In the Hip-Hop world, putting an entire state on the map is an unyielding task. Say you’re from California, images of Death Row’s glory days arise. New York has Bad Boy, Wu-Tang, Nas, Jay and the list goes on. Georgia boasts Outkast, T.I., Ludacris and others. Louisiana touts No Limit, Cash Money and Boosie. Texas has Scarface, UGK, and, well, by now the point should be made. Certain places gain respect off their predecessors. Read the rest of this entry »

KD – G-Fluid

04.11.11 Written by Gotty™

‘Bama continues making small but sizeable dents into the current framework of rap. Expect no less from KD and G-Fluid, which features production by DJ Burn One, B. Kirk & Ced L Young. KD kicks country rap tunes all by his lonely and seeks no help from outsiders minus two, including a choice assist by Gibbs on “Let Me Ride.” Read the rest of this entry »

J. Rawls Feat. Diamond D, Oh No & Kev Brown – “Best Producer On The Mic”

04.11.11 Written by Gotty™

“And I dress so fresh it ain’t even funny, Impeccable and pristine in any season, money.”

The Hip-Hop Affect will tell the tale of how producer J. Rawls grew up in Hip-Hop. Obviously, he was influenced by heavyweight producers, most notably those who did double-duty rocking the mic. On “Best Producer…,” he teams up with a couple of those same cats to deliver a nice ditty. Read the rest of this entry »

Max B – “Blow My High” Video

04.11.11 Written by J. Tinsley

“The word is that I’m not a sucker for love, I just think with my d*ck…”

According to Legend, the response to Biggaveli’s Vigilante Season was met with such a wave of hunger, Amalgam Digital is currently taking pre-orders for the special edition CD and t-shirt. That’s good. Anything to put on Max’s books, you know? Read the rest of this entry »

Bobby Creekwater – “You And What Army” Video

04.11.11 Written by TC

Resolve. Webster’s describes it as a definitive point where a person comes to a determination. Unless you don’t troll the usual rap sites at even the slightest moderation, then you’ll know Bobby Creekwater’s resolve has been “make it or bust” status for several years since going at things completely independent.

Sandman – “Armed & Dangerous”

04.11.11 Written by Gotty™

Sandman’s been making a push for his upcoming Mt. Crushmore mixtape but my chances of listening to it have been minimal given the amount of material released over the past two weeks. If “Armed & Dangerous” is an indicator, the project should be everything expected: Read the rest of this entry »

Killer Mike Feat. Big Boi & T.I. – “Ready Set Go (Remix)” Video

04.11.11 Written by Raj

PL3DGE doesn’t drop for another five weeks, but it’s time for that final push before the album reaches shelves. Accordingly, Killer Mike is hitting his “Grind N Hustle” tour hard, and this weekend I happened to catch him and his DJ, our own Trackstar. Mike was kind enough to let me get a preview of his upcoming record, and without getting too wordy, it’s fire. Read the rest of this entry »

Bounty Killer – “No Cream To Mi Face”

Keeping track of random tidbits of info happen to be what I do more than anything. Probably the only reason I’m remotely aware of Vybz Kartel and the ongoing skin-bleaching epidemic in Jamaica. Read the rest of this entry »

The Emotional Roller Coaster That Was Tiger’s Final Round

04.11.11 Written by J. Tinsley


Whoever created the “previous channel” button on the remote is an unheralded figure in American history. His/her feature allowed me to flip between the Celtics/Heat game and the final round of the Masters every two minutes without missing a beat. Rory McIlroy’s iconic collapse had him taking chip shots from locals’ backyards and made us all feel better about that bad day at work last week. Read the rest of this entry »
