Since you gossip like groupies, know this please/I’ll never go broke, my name got two G’s…
Long before Willow was apart of the R.O.C., Jigga stayed in some gangsta sh!t. Way back when DJ Clue was known as the most exclusive man in Hip-Hop, this Jay-Z and Ja Rule cut ranked as one of the standouts. Read the rest of this entry »

Since GTA has been on my mind, it seemed like a proper time to drop these joints. Hit the break for all three volumes from early 2K. Read the rest of this entry »
In my humble opinion, you can hang this mixtape up in the rafters alongside the greats. If I ever caught wind of the proposed Triangle Offense album ever dropping, you could keep Detox & OBC4L2. But only Read the rest of this entry »
The folks @ Yardbarker catch up with a few stars & athletes on their way to Diddy’s Good Life Experience Super Bowl party in Tampa and ask them to name all of his nicknames. Imagine if they were given the same task with Tashan Dorsett as the subject.

You can front all you want but all these “hood anthems” we’re being bombarded with nowadays are straight up garbage, and forgettable. Does anyone remember Webbie was on the remix to “Speedin???” Who had your favorite verse on “Don’t Touch Me (Throw Da Water On ‘Em)???” And why is that we refer ever new Khaled collabo as “I’m So Hood Part ____???” The usual suspects of the era still managed to be everywhere there was a studio, but in terms of actually making an impact, the difference is vast. In this day and age, all these dudes are concerned with is cashing a check. And you can tell because that’s all their regurgitated rhymes entail.

I told Legend that I was gonna keep breaking these out as fast as I could over the next few days & weeks.

Trying to find the album covers for these old Clue tapes (Mission Impossible status), I stumbled across some vintage P graphic from the old Smoking Session with dude.
P’s graphics > the sound of the ice cream truck on a hot, sunny day.
