Phil Adé - “Hollywood” Video

Now pardon the tardiness on this here post, but I’m in a DC-type of mood given the requisite listening of the recent release from one Mr. Folarin (the numbers don’t look good, but hopefully they pick up given the offering was the best ’09 debut this side of Fashawn’s Boy Meets World).

YelaWolf - “Pop the Trunk”

It’s great when an artist is consistent. Most rappers finding their way in this confusing industry seem to have an agenda to release so much music that everybody knows their name, even if those listeners can’t name specific songs. Sometimes, it works out perfectly and garners positive attention,...
