Hip-Hop, Mixtapes | Meek Mill – Dreamchasers 2 (Mixtape)
Posted by dshaq on May 7, 2012
“I ball hard, all year N***a“
Blown away. That would best describe my reaction to Meek Mill’s brand new mixtape, Dreamchasers 2. After the multiple leaks, such as “Burn” and “Amen”, we finally get to listen to it in it’s entirety. The beats are phenomenal but nowhere near as good as his flow, killing every single song. Spitting with some serious emotion, Meek makes each song a must listen from start to finish. Garnering a slew of notable features from the likes of Big Sean, Kendrick Lamar, Drake, Rozay, Wale, 2 CHAINNNZZZZZ (had to), Fabolous, Mac Miller, and French Montana, the tape is too good to be true. So download it and clear a good hour out of your schedule, because you want to listen to this.

Although I didn’t know Stalley was still a thing, Rick Ross continues to put his weight behind “Savage Journey to the American Dream” that’s chalked full of features from Rick Ross, Meek Mill, and other weed carriers that work for Maybach Music. The best cuts can be found below. M-M-Maybach Music!

Based God, we are not worthy of your infinite wisdom and guidance. Oh Based Lord, lead us not into temptation but into eternal life. We are unworthy of your swag. Show us the light. We are living in darkness! Lead us! Blessed based redeemer shower us with swag for we know not what we do. Show us the righteous path. We are foul ignorant despicable creatures that need your based guidance. We want to live according to your rare word. In your blessed based name we pray, ahmen.
Hip-Hop | Nardwuar vs. Action Bronson
Posted by J_Salzer on March 21, 2012
Well isn’t this a gem. Fresh off SXSW. Nardwuar interviews the white Rick Ross, Action Bronson. Nardwuar is easily my favorite interviewer in the game. He does his research, as you can tell by his numerous personalized gifts he ALWAYS graces artists with. His questions are always deep and thought provoking. Anytime I watch one of Nardwuar’s interviews, I gain an entirely different view of whoever is being interviewed. Get familiar with Action Bronson.
Hip-Hop | Rick Ross ft. Wale, Meek Mill, & T-Pain – Bag Of Money
Posted by GMONEY on March 4, 2012
The big boss, Ricky Ross, is back at it again. This time he’s recruited auto-tune aficionado T-Pain for his first single off his upcoming “Self Made Vol. 2” album. Recently voted “hottest MC” in the world by MTV, Rawse’s star has never shined brighter. Rick Ross, lyrically less technical than his predecessors, proves in this current hip-hop climate, style matters more than substance. His ability to make you feel like a dope king while riding with your watch out the window, however, is a testament to the power of his music. B*tch you wasn’t with him chewing on some ribs. Money over everything. UGHN.
Hip-Hop, Rap | Blue Ivy Carter, Jeezy x Drake, Big Sean, Meek Mill

Above is the first public sighting of Jay & Beyonce’s baby girl, Blue Ivy Carter. Looks like Hov minus the Yankee’s cap. Anyone care to guess what her first words will be? More pics below. For the record, I think this song below sounds terribly forced by Jay.

Out of nowhere, Drizzy hops on Jeezy’s “I Do”, which already featured Jay-Z & Andre 3k. There is some speculation that this was the original version for TM: 103 Hustlerz Ambition, but for whatever reason, Jeezy cut out Drake’s verse.

Here’s what Big Sean Don had to say (via Twitter) regarding the bars he spit of J Dilla’s classic,
“In honor of J Dilla being one of the most influential producers of all time, I decided to lay a verse to one of my favorite tracks off of J Dilla’s “Donuts”. Being from Detroit I feel I have a responsibility to honor his legacy n continue it in my own way. His soul will live forever! RIP J Dilla “Two Can Win” freestyle.”

Meek Mill’s latest single (CDQ) off his upcoming project, Dreams & Nightmares, features the Boss of Miami. Produced by Cardiak, load the semi’s.

I don’t care what you kids at home who still live with their parents who listen to Lil Wayne religiously think, Rick Ross is the hottest MC in the world right now. The New Yorker recently said of the bawse:
“What matters is not the rap sheet but the rhyme, and the spin the m.c. can give to the trade. Ross’s success in mimicking drug lords has brought him the ability to live like one of them. Profiles have documented his large homes, his fleet of cars, his shopping sprees at watch stores, his solicitous entourage and flexible schedule. Ross may represent the final abandonment of hip-hop’s mandate to “keep it real,” a concept that goes by different names now but has not gone away. Perhaps listeners know that this is a version of “Miami Vice,” a show that Ross claims to have been inspired by. The appeal is less some kind of documentary thrill than Ross’s ability to transmit the confidence that comes from blithely running up roaming fees while driving a Rolls-Royce through Samoa.”
Basically, the New York Times is saying Rick Ross is a big ole’ phony with a perfect correctional officer attendance record. How can you blame them. It’s all true. That doesn’t matter though. Like all good pop music, rap is now theatre, and Rick Ross is simply playing a character. If you didn’t pick up “Rich Forever” the first time I encourage you to do so – as it will inevitably make you feel like you could be the biggest drug dealer in the world.
