Now that the summer’s rearing its head again, Flockaveli will once more have a spot in the whip’s rotation. And I fully expect this Lex Luger conspired lullaby to have its fair share of spins. Tell me Mama Deb’s pride and joy didn’t do his thing on this. It’s not Nas on “Verbal Intercourse,” but that’s two different peas in two different pods. Read the rest of this entry »

The album everyone loves to hate just won’t go away. Question Waka’s lyrics, intelligence or even longevity, but one thing not up for debate is his work ethic. To date, Mama Deb’s pride and joy has shot eight videos for Flockaveli and as long as there are dreads to swing Read the rest of this entry »

When the grass is cut, the snakes will show and you’d probably be surprised to see that some have Louis Vuitton purses and Chanel® lipstick. Such is reality in the life of Waka Flocka Flame. Meet a chick, bag a chick and sleep it off and next thing you know, she’s bagging all your groceries and flaunting it on World Star. Girls these days ain’t nothing but trouble but Flockaveli is ’bout that getback, shawty. His whole crew is TTG. Read the rest of this entry »

Every so often, an artist emerges igniting so much controversy that ignoring him or her is next to impossible. In 2010, Brick Squad’s own Waka Flocka Flame is this artist. He’s been referred to as everything from uneducated, to regressive and even a curse to the culture itself. While he may or may not deserve all the aformentioned labels, Read the rest of this entry »

Waka Flocka Flame.

No need for formal introductory irrelevance. You know the name well since you first saw it embedded into your eyeballs and you had to convince yourself that his name was actually WAKA FLOCKA FLAME. But from all the preconceived notions built around the man who bullied his way into our headphones with “O Let’s Do It” a year ago, how much of has the media portrayal affected your views of him.

“BOW BOW BOW!”

Flocka’s “Bustin At Em” video is all one requires if the day needs an injection of violence and angst. Brain food? “Subtract you like a fraction” anyone? Don’t look or listen here if wisdom is what you seek. Read the rest of this entry »

Flockaveli in this. Brick City Killuminati. You can shoot him with a shotty but you can’t kill him or his rap career. You hear that BET? YOU CAN’T STOP THE WAKAWACKWAKAWAKAWAKA movement (no Fozzie Bear). The game’s most controverted and controversial figure is ready to pack clubs and ER rooms with his customized brand of murda muzik.

After having to send up a flare to get an edited version of this track last night, I now realize how other cats were able to supply it so quickly. If this ain’t on the radio yet, I can’t wait until it is. Read the rest of this entry »

And here I was thinking “crunk music” was toe-tagged forever. In 2010, it may not have the nationwide appeal as it did during the glory days of Three 6 Mafia or Lil Jon & The Eastside Boyz, but Waka Flocka is definitely doing his part to resuscitate the style. Read the rest of this entry »

Just in time for the resurrection of Christ (because every good hero needs them music), Waka Flocka, Rawse & Lucifer release the video treatment for the new Negro spiritual. You already know what time it is. Ohleedouittt! Read the rest of this entry »

Get robbed & shot? Survive and live to tell about it? Better get the remix out pronto. By doing so, Waka Flocka James just gave this song the shot in the arm (weak pun) it needed to maintain its slot as a club and radio mainstay. Read the rest of this entry »

“…Drug dealin’ music.”

I’ve been lightweight waitin’ on a CDQ of this joint. The picture? *Kanye shrug* I just think that Rihanna would fit right in with the Brick Squad goons, jumpin’ all around the video. Read the rest of this entry »

Without fail, saying the name “Waka Flocka Flame” brings a devilish grin to my face. It’s simplistic, ignorant yet brilliant, similar to how I wish I had started calling myself Flavor Flav before William Drayton grabbed it. If you’ve yet to understand the connection & appeal of the likes of Waka & OJ, seeing may be believing and the video is typical of the adrenaline-stirring chaos they inspire.
