Jazmine Sullivan: "Prototype"

My homegirl put me on to this remake of one of my favorite tracks from the "Love Below" by R&B's newest phenom Jazmine Sullivan. From what I hear its old, but it still goes pretty hard so enjoy (the track starts about 20secs after you press play so be patient)...

Ludacris: "Shonuff" (Classic Beat)

Here is a track from Luda's highly anticipated "Gangsta Grillz" mixtape featuring a VERY unnecesary Lil Fate. The mixtape itself is not much to write home about in my opinion, but maybe it'll take a couple more listens for me to feel it but I doubt it.

Lloyd: "Treat U Good"

Here is a banger from Lloyd's upcoming LP "Lessons In Love". I was never a Lloyd fan but the last album was a slept on classic which was super surprising. Ive heard most of the new album & Im not really impressed but this joint got a nice bounce to it so enjoy...

Jeezy ft Yeezy: "I Put On" (video)

This is one of my favorite joints of 08 but I gotta keep it 100... The video is kinda weak. But hey, I guess its still worth a post.

Here's the trailor:


A dang ole shame...bitchassness is reaching epidemic proportions.

Marsha Ambrosius: "Co Star"

Swizz Beatz: "That Oprah" Freestyle

This joint is craaaazzzzyyy!!!! I already was a fan of the original "Viva La Vida" by Cold Play but The Monster's interpretation of the song is bananas. Not to mention the hook is superb!

Weezy F: "Real Rap"

Here is a revamp of Weezy's "Real Rap" with a different beat & I must say this joint is pretty smooth...

Happy Birthday Nelson Mandela

Its been 45 years since Nelson Mandela was sent to prison for more than two decades and 14 years since his election as president of South Africa heralded the end of apartheid. Few have endured and accomplished what he has. -Stereohyped

Happy Birthday!!!

Once Again Its On!

Busta Rhymes - Everything Remains Raw

Ro posted Bussa Bus's newest joint "I Got Bass" which is a certfied B-B-B-B-Banger!! Busta is so on his job with "I got Bass" it reminded me of my favorite Busta joint ever. Even though this is just a short clip because they never released a full video....youll get the point!! Row Row the Dungeon Dragon just might be back.

p.s. what you know bout the Toyota Landcruiser??? Straight Dopeness!!!

Raphael Saadiq: "Love That Girl"

Finally!!!!!!! The homey Raphael is back! & he brings an ear party with a 1950's feel from his upcoming album titled "The Way I See it". (Guaranteed to be what the games been missing.) I will venture to say that Dude is one of the most underrated Gods of R&B/Soul. This track makes me wanna pop my collar, flip a quarter in the juke box, & ask a young lady to dance... & If she denies me, I have no choice but to douse her with Grey Goose...

Gym Class Heroes ft Busta Rhymes: "Peace Sign/Index Down"

Enjoy!

TI: "What Up"

WOW! I guess Rambo really set the record straight on this one... I personally think it shoulda been titled "Shawty Lo is a Booty-Head" but nevertheless it still goes hard...

Asher Roth: "Dey Know Asher"

Here is an older freestyle by the kid Asher Roth, who is getting has a major buzz here lately. Asher flows over one of my favorite tracks of the year. Needless to say homie did his thing on this joint. You can hear more of em on his Affiliates mixtape titled "The Green House Effect".

Solebox X Asics Gel Lyte III Release

Here is the color changing, Solebox X Asics Gel Lyte III. These kicks use the German sneaker boutique's favorite color in purple, the purple/gray upper includes a color changing feature which is sensitive to sunlight. (Big shouts to Highsnobiety) What more can I say other than "NEXT... lets not drag our feet on these!"
