As the rainy season began to subside, April came and went: ushering in the next few months of warmth, sunligh, and barbeque weather. The gloomy skies have been replaced with sunlight and it’s almost time to start busting out the cargo shorts and tank tops. Tack on the NFL draft and the beginning of the NBA playoffs and Tins’ chances of a mental breakdown are approaching seasonal highs. Read the rest of this entry »

The Game may be a lot of things, but a wack rapper he is not. His outside the booth antics and repetitive bridge burning may often rub many fans the wrong way, however the man’s music speaks for himself and all of his albums have all been consistently strong. Read the rest of this entry »

The Game’s relationship with DJ Skee has been fruitful in the past, and the duo looks to extend their winning streak with upcoming mixtape California Republic. The project’s cover art was recently released, highlighted by a dope take on Cali’s state flag Read the rest of this entry »

Regardless if the art of the “music video” has been saturated to no end thanks to the Internet, every once and awhile one will drop that actually serves its purpose. It had been a few months since I last listened to Game’s The R.E.D. Album. Now, it looks like I’ll be forced to revisit the LP thanks to the recently liberated visual for “The City.” Read the rest of this entry »

Earlier today, news began to surface that Game had been ordered by a judge to pay five million dollars to a group of North Carolina police officers. The reasoning? Read the rest of this entry »

Even though the hook repeatedly says “Lehhgooo,” Noreaga isn’t referring to the toy building blocks you’ve had to pull from your nephews mouth. Instead, the CNN member has flipped C.Breezy’s adlib into the poppin’ single from his upcoming mixtape, Crack On Steroids Read the rest of this entry »

Man, I swear Game dissed Soujla Boy at some point in his career, but I guess rap memories are fleeting. Either that or Jayceon has released too many diss records to keep track of. All bullsh*t aside, the first minute of this song is excellent. Read the rest of this entry »

Those who’ve been patrolling the web for years probably downloaded “Growing Up In The Hood” some six or seven years ago. According to VIBE, Obie’s collaboration with Jayceon is slated to be featured on Bottoms Up, which is set to crash land February 28. Read the rest of this entry »

Chuck’s R.E.D. Album already made our “Most Slept On” list, and if we decided to sift through all stand-out singles from the past 365, “Martians Vs. Goblins” would probably make that list, too. Read the rest of this entry »

Watching Game mature in the public eye has been nonstop entertainment and a struggle. Possibly no one can attest to this statement more than Tiffany Cambridge, the Compton rapper’s longtime girlfriend and mother of his children. As a reward for her loyalty and his genuine love for him, Game – with MTV RapFix in tow – showed up at Cambridge’s job at Frank D. Parent Elementary school in Inglewood, California and to make known his intentions to spend the rest of his life with her. Read the rest of this entry »

Unlike the relatively swift turnaround for Game’s second studio from his debut amidst label turmoil, The R.E.D. Album comes a lengthy three years after its predecessor, with the erratic behavior of Compton’s crowned king playing a factor in the delay. Even though one of rap’s most polarizing figures was coming off another run that adorned his hallways with more shiny CD replicas, the man, Jayceon Taylor found himself at a career crossroads, unsure of the next step.

A very dope shot from Kendrick’s show a few weeks ago when his peers knighting him as the leader of the West. Read the rest of this entry »

Jayceon Taylor sure knows how to keep his name in the news when he has an album dropping. Whenever Game has an album coming out the flames of his so-called ‘beef’ with Jay-Z seem to ignite, but the root cause of the Compton emcee’s grudge has never been quite clear. All that’s known is he “don’t take shots at legends,” but Hov is the obvious exception. Read the rest of this entry »

Watching Kendrick Lamar and Game tear through The R.E.D. Album’s “My City” is only half of the highlight here. If you skip to the 4:00 mark, Snoop Dogg approaches the stage and proceeds to pass the proverbial torch to Kendrick in front of the hometown L.A. crowd. Read the rest of this entry »

Lil B fires back at The Game after the Comptonite sent a few shots in B’s direction on “Goblins Vs. Monsters” and naming the “the wackest rapper of all time” in an interview. Read the rest of this entry »
