Ke$ha has stormed back on the scene this last several weeks with a few new, top choice selections. Now I don’t usually plug remixes but this “Die Young (Remix)” is worthy of two turntables, two speakers and a crowd of drunk ladies dancing. It features the production talents of the 2000 version Dr Luke and […]
What a week. If you live in the tri-state area, this last week and a half has been like a walking nightmare. Prayers to everyone who lost someone during Sandy. Prayers also to everyone with no power surviving these brutal temps. All that said, we’ve elected the man Obama for another historical four more years. […]
Swizz Beatz is no stranger to hit records. Hell, he invented his own brand of hit records. This week I saw the “Everyday Birthday” trailer featuring Swizzy, Breezy and Luda. That’s at least 100 + million albums sold worldwide on one track. I knew instantly, this is a guaranteed smash inside and out of the […]
You have to admire Mayor Michael Bloomberg. He’s can get it remarkably right in one public instance and then fail really bad, falling flat on his face in another. His endorsement of President Obama was spot on and timely. As a citizen of the city, I can say that his leadership during this storm has […]
It’s been talked about in various interviews by Big Sean and now it’s finally here. They highly anticipated single “Guap” produced by the homie Young Chop. Big Sean’s resume of hits is stacking up thicker than the ladies from ATL’s club Onyx. “Guap” should add another bullet point to Sean’s so far successful career. Big […]
A big nasty gray cloud is hanging over world football -or-soccer like a thick NorEaster rain cloud that spews days worth of rain. It’s racism in the game. World Football’s governing bodies are failing to properly acknowledge and more importantly do something about it. Last week several racially charged incidents marred the game that is […]
Meek Milly has been on fire since he first put it down with Rozay on “Ima Boss.” Once upon a rhyme ago, Meek’s boss, Ross, really found his groove when he did that R&B collabo with John Legend, “Magnificent.” Looks like Mill decided to use the same formula as he recruits Legend to sing a […]
Joe Budden has been talking about it for a long time, and if you’ve been to one his entertaining and energetic shows then you’ve heard it or heard about it. Well, it’s finally here: his new song featuring Tank and Lil Wayne, “She Don’t Put it Down Like You.” With the recent success of the […]
Everybody seems to be worried about why Lady Gaga is going to absent from the new Kendrick Lamar album. As if we really cared. Listen to this new track “Compton” featuring the “good kid” from the “m.A.A.d city” and his mentor Dr Dre. Just Blaze did his thing on this record as it’s an anthem […]
Money is the root of all evil, but it’s also a vehicle to more clarity. When I heard this hot new Juvenile track “Picture Perfect,” which features Lil Wayne and Birdman — that’s right I said Juvenile featuring Lil Wayne and Birdman. When I heard this record, I realized the former Hot Boys crew had found […]
Blah, Blah, Blah is what the haters sound like every time they have something to say about Nicki Minaj. From DMX to PTI’s Tony Kornheiser, everybody seems to have something to say. Well say what you want, but from Pepsi to Adidas, from Paris to La and back NYC Minaj-mania is a worldwide phenomenon. So in […]
There’s tears in my eyes as I write this. The brother Chris Lighty was a really good dude. In the music business he was a rarity. You see, in this legalized game of hustling we call rap, he was one of the few decent guys who helped others. Chris helped artists turn their music careers […]
