Young L – Pockets On Loud ( SoHellatronic Dubstep Remix)

One of the most interesting young talents to have come out of the US in recent memory gets the dubstep treatment on his ridiculous lead single off his Domo Kun mixtape.

It’s interesting, I prefer the stripped back approach on the original though

Is Too $hort The Least Creative Rapper, Ever?

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t hate Too Short, I like Too Short, I fucking love Too Short.

Short Dog’s in the house, his guests on The Jacka’s Die Young, Mistah FAB’s “Sideshow Remix” are all great moments in His career.

It just seems he’s really quick to jump scenes/styles in the hope of a payday and it seldom works. Early 2000′s album he did in Atl. that was all Lil Jon..forgettable. His album around ’07 where he tried to get on the Hyphy bus… more so.

And this one

I’m all for rappers trying new shit. This isn’t trying new shit. This is trying to jump on a bandwagon with a derivative, boring, generic sound in the hope that you get paid. I’m not sure how this is a good move for him, maybe it’ll bore people into submission.

How to Diss

Was talking about this on twitter, always thought it was mac mall, not coolio. Mac Dre really shines on this. Ragging on lil Bruce for having a crippled Gran and being half asian. Radio Freestyle..? I’ve only ever heard/owned this exact recording so if anyone has a better qual. version hit me up.

New Jeezy x Drama Mixtape

Just thinking last night that Jeezy has been really quiet whilst he’s supposed to be working on an album.

Pretty interested in his new album, seems like he’s on some redemption arc, trapper turned ghetto prophet.

As annoying as Drama’s DJ drops are, Gangsta Grills at it’s peak WAS Jeezy and Drama so this could be ok, at least something to do on a monday morning

Dial 911- Waxx ft The Jacka

The beat is on some weirdly hypnotic shit. The Jacka doesn’t really do much on this one but it works on some smoked out tip that avoids showing up Waxx, cause there’s always that danger with a Jacka guest verse, he has a tendency to make other people on the track look amateur.

The interesting thing is that this is a gang rap track where they’re advocating calling the police. Maybe there’s been a paradigm shift, much like when Tony Montana/scarface has gone from meaning “gangsta” to “fake gangsta” over the last couple of years.

anyways, here’s the track + free download

Three of the Same

Not sure which one I like best but these three are all good for a friday night

In chronological order;

LEP Bogus Boys – FTW

Southern hospitality put me on to Chase N. Cashe production last year. LEP Bogus Boys have made a few decent tracks + Videos without generating the kinda hype they deserve.

That one jacket is sick too.

they got plies perfect..short bus shawty remix

oj, minaj and scoochi get honourable mentions

Young L – Slap Yo Mama

The whole “Turnt Up Thrusdays” thing Young L has been doing is yet to disappoint. As llast time, click through to get the download link off youtube

ASAP rocky

Recently I was stupid dumb sick. Like delirious. Spent a lot of time lying on my floor listening to space ghost purp and this guy.

Dude is is kinda cool. Can do good raps and manages top be a bit left of centre without it defining him. Definitely a breath of fresh air compared to some of the current crop. Harlem local.
