What more can I say? I love music and I'm a serious hip-hop head. From ATCQ to Nasty Nas to The Dramatics and Eddie Kendrics, I get it in all day. "First with the style from the birth canal // And now I got the flav to make the crowd go wild"

MV: Wale (@wale) “Diary” (Directed by Rik Cordero)
no responses - Posted 05.03.10
I've been waiting for this video to drop for some time now and it was well worth the wait. "Diary" is one of my favorite songs on "Attention Deficit", and the video is nothing short of perfection. The last scene of the video clearly exemplifies the essence of the ...continue

Dope new track from the showoff camp featuring Kali and Termanology. This track appears on Kali's new EP, "The Coast", hosted by DJ Statik Selektah and mixed by DJ Ill Will, which will be dropping this week. I love the beat on this single - Statik flips Earth, Wind, and ...continue

I've been waiting for this mixtape to drop for some time now. Reks is a lyrical monster - Don't believe me? Check out Grey Hairs and More Grey Hairs. While these releases probably went unnoticed by most people, they were definite "home runs" and deserved 5 and 4 stars respectively. ...continue

A collection of older releases and freestyles not appearing on "The Come Up" or "The Warm Up". This is a nice compilation for those who have not been keeping up with J. Cole leaks over the past few months. I can't wait until this kid releases his debut album; I'm ...continue

One question: Why is Premo so dope? This is one of the illest posse' cuts of all time. People often sleep on Fat Joe because he has recently gone mainstream, but he used to bring some dope bars. I love how they pass the mic in the video. Let it ...continue

Dope new track from Mr. Tom Hardy entitled "True Talent". I'm really lovin' the beat - produced by Hardy himself in conjunction with his production team, Thee Band Geeks. Wordplay on this track is clever and fun. The last line of the song really resonated with me - ...continue

In honor of the release of Statik's "100 Proof: The Hangover" tomorrow, I decided to post this mixtape. Compiled by the good people of Kevin Nottingham, this mixtape highlights some of Statik's best work over the past year. I've been following Statik ever since the release of the Nas "Prophecy" ...continue

After listening to multiple leaks and freestyles, the time has finally come - "No Mixtape" is here. Mr. Trill himself definitely held it down on this project. If you download anything today, make sure you scoop this. "Pants on the ground, Pants on the ground...looking like a fool with your ...continue

Dope project put together by DJ Sav One: "DJ Dyllemma & I (DJ Sav One) put together over 65 tracks from some of our favorite MCs, who were either on the come-up or established MCs still putting out quality hip-hop in '09. For the people who feel like there weren't enough ...continue

::cue in Just-Ice ft. KRS-One "Going Way Back":: This was my joint - straight headbanging boom bap hip-hop. Surprisingly, Shaq came with a few bars on this track. I still have no respect for the man after the whole Gilbert Arenas incident. SMH! Let it marinate. Video Information: Artist: Fu-Schnickens ft. ...continue
