With another calendar damn near in the books, this time of the year is always reserved for looking back. What’s hot? What’s not? What stood out? What faded away as quick he/she/it came? Being apart of the family here, most of those questions are answered for me ahead of time. That being said, one in particular remained. What artist converted me into a fan in 2011?

Travis Barker doesn’t actually need you to give him anything. He’s hustling his debut album like it he released it independently, showcasing the star power he pulled in to make it a solid offering. Next up for the video treatment is the me-against-the-world record with Beanie Sigel portraying himself as a prison inmate, Bun Bido dropping that realism and hookman extraordinaire Kobe gelling the entire scribe together on the chorus.

“So the love is gone, ’til blood is drawn
So we no longer wear the same uniform

Is there any really doubt who the spare set of keys the company Maybach belongs to now? Where much of his time in the limelight has been buffered by the trademark grunt of his MMG head honcho, Meek Mill’s moment to prove he’s more than just a benefit to a luxurious situation is upon him. Co-signed by the mixtape mob boss himself, DJ Drama, Read the rest of this entry »

Hard is an understatement when it comes to this intimidating remix of Ace Hood’s “Go ‘N Get It.” Read the rest of this entry »

Time has an unique way of masking itself mainly due to amount of experiences we all go through in life. 2005 and the moments which defined it may or may not be long since forgotten. Yet, with hindsight, some people, places, things and songs hold even more weight than they originally did. Beanie Sigel, in 2010, is a lot like Brett Favre in 2010 Read the rest of this entry »

Sheek Luciano is a full bird colonel as far as industry vets go and his behind-the-scenes command has earned him the opportunity to call Def Jam his base of operations for the time being. To celebrate his newfound enlistment, he’s recruited DJ Green Lantern as his executive officer and along with Termanlogy, Sean C. & LV, Termanology and the rest of the Lox, Donnie Def Jam: Guerilla Warfare Vol. 1 is the next East Coast weapon of mass destruction.

If you haven’t heard, MC Hammer is angry at Jay-Z for doing something truly heinous: dropping a few lines about Hammer’s bankruptcy. Apparently, mentioning a real-life event that happened 20 years ago is cause for aggression and exercise videos. Some say Hammer overreacted. Others don’t care. Read the rest of this entry »

Sheek got ahold of Beans and managed to shift Sigel’s focus from Jay to actually spitting rhymes that sound alright. Thus “1 Clip, 1 Gun” turns out okay. Read the rest of this entry »

I would say how Beans looks rather clownish for continuing with these antics and how he’s running a close race with Shyne for late-’90s rapper losing credibility faster than a NY minute. But, I won’t for fear he might slap me too. Paranoid to think that Jay’s still taking shots @ you in “Light Up“? Threatening to slap Drake because he featured Jay on a track?

The black Rex Ryan is back like cooked crack or an angry ex. Like TC said earlier, it seems like Beanie listened to BP3 more than even Jay did. Meanwhile, Jigga is probably waiting for Beans to drop an album after The Reason. Read the rest of this entry »
