Game on Hot 97
AUDIO: I haven’t listened to it, I’m just reporting it. It’s a two parter.
Small World - Ready Willing Able
Another hot beat here, this time for DTP’s Small World of Raleigh, NC. Small World flows over the ‘ready willing and able’ vocal samples and talks a little smack.
Brolic D - I’m In The Hood
Yea kid! Brolic D reps hard on this one. Beat bumps like a motherfucker and NC’s Brolic sounds hungry.
Bobby Valentine - Let’s Go
DTP’s Valentine The Dream got hisself a radio track here. It’s got that click snare, synths and big drums on the hook.
Bizzy Bone interview
Somebody emailed us this interview out of the blue, so we published it. Enjoy.
Marco Polo Debut LP, Port Authority, On Rawkus/Soulspazm Records
Rawkus return with a debut LP from producer, Marco Polo. Featuring Kool G Rap, Wordsworth, Large Professor, Sadat X, AG and Masta Ace.
Memphis Bleek preps new mixtape, Dipset disses
“They (Dipset) don’t make hot music. ‘Ether’ was hot. When that dropped, I was in the studio like, ‘Wow, he bombed on us.’ He spit. These dudes ain’t spitting. … All of y’all should be slapped.”
Will M.O.P ever drop another album?
Sha Money XL ain’t confirming or denying a thing … which makes me think it’s gonna be a loooong wait for an M.O.P album.
9th Wonder, Little Brother officially split
“Little Brother has decided, in the best interest of the group, for Little Brother and 9th Wonder to part ways. There are no hard feelings and no beef …”
Beef: Tru Life with Dipset chains at instore signing
Tru lets the fans take photos rockin a few of Dipset’s chains. Of all the incidents in the Tru Life v Dipset beef so far, this is probably the best. Stealing chains ranks somewhat higher than hacking myspace profiles.
Fabolous Feat. Swizz Beats - Return Of The Hustle (Produced by Just Blaze)
Oh man, this is what I’ve been waiting for. Personally I thought Fab’s Lil Wayne collab Diamonds was hot garbage, but Return Of The Hustle is heat. This one’s produced by Just Blaze, but Swizzy’s here for some reason as hypeman/hook guy. I’m a little more keen for Fab’s Def Jam debut after hearing this.
Fab’s [...]
Justice - Black Republican Freestyle
Australia’s own Scribble Jam 2005 MC battle champion Justice delivers some absolute fire on this one. It’s been a minute since we heard some new material from Justice (spare the Fob mixtape), sounds like he’s been sharpening his teeth waiting for his next meal. Enjoy
Onyx to relaunch Madface Clothing line
Onyx refuse to admit it’s been years since All We Got Iz Us and give their clothing brand another go.
Beef: Tru Life takes more shots at Lil Wayne
Tru Life just keeps beefin. As much time as I have for the dude, I’ve gotta say this is all fairly transparent
Lil Wayne / Juelz Santana - Black Republican
Well this is a better team up than Young Hot Rod and Papoose, but as far as I know, Papoose owns this beat. Weezy F Baby comes off much hotter on this one than his Dipset compadre, but rapping on this beat requires something special. Both come off nice, but not nice enough.
Oh and word [...]
