Dee-1-Cornerback Blitz


Dee 1 is from New Orleans rapping about substance.

Setting: 1AM studio conversation in New Orleans. “What’s it called in music when you come out of nowhere and all of a sudden make everybody pay attention to your movement?” No one had a clear answer. Then Dee-1 hopped off the sofa and said “A Cornerback Blitz! If you pull it off you can mess around and change the game.”

Cornerback Blitz

Lil Wayne Ft. Drake-She Will


I'm not really excited about this Carter IV release yet because the singles have been lackluster. I may have to give this a few more listens before I really appreciate it for what it is.

She Will


Also check out the remix/original version that had Rick Ross as a feature.

Wiz Khalifa - No Sleep (Video)

Young Mike Tyson's furious path from his first professional fight to unbelievable WBC title match against Trevor Berbick.



An amazing video that shows how dominant he was during these years in his prime. I would not want to mess with Mike Tyson at all.

Delonte West AKA Charlee Redz Ft. KayeM - Livin Life Fast (Video)

It's not December 25th but Xmas has come early for me. Delonte West, NBA/rap artist, has let loose what could be his first ever recorded rap song and video. In the past we have seen Delonte hit the freestyle scene but now he's made it official with a rap name, song, and video. Enjoy

Bow Wow Ft. Lil Wayne, DJ Khaled, & 2 Chainz-Ima Stunt


It's been a while since I've put up a song from Bow Wow. It's that sometimes I can't take the lyrics seriously when he's rapping out this fake lifestyle he's been living. Oh well. This I can take.

J. Cole-Any Given Sunday # 2 (EP)


For the record, these are not mixtapes, not EP’s either. I wake up on Sunday’s and I decide what songs I want to let out or rerelease for yall. You’ve been so patient for 2 YEARS! I think you deserve some insight and unreleased music.


1. Bring Em’ In- Made this in ATL during the “single hunt” phase. Even though it wasn’t a single and won’t make the album, I love this shit!


2. Roll Call- Just some real shit. Venting
3. Be Freestyle- “Put on for my city like my favorite jacket… “man, you gon’ where that every got damn night??”.. “know what I paid for this shit?? bitch, you got damn right!!”

Mr. Pure-Gibberish


From Chaos, to College, to the Clouds; for Mid-West rising Rap/Hip-Hop artist Mr. Pure, Skies are NOT the limit, they are just the Beginning. Mr. Pure leaves even the most skeptical listeners wanting more by delivering the highest quality lyrics, hooks, and vocals on every song. So I finally listened and this song made me want to listen to the rest of the songs that got sent to me. Enjoy and I plan to listen to the mixtape sometime soon.

Cee Lo Green - Cry Baby (Video)

A video that does not star Cee Lo Green in it would usually have a negative reaction from me but the video stars Jaleel White a.k.a Urkel a.k.a Stephan from the hit television show Family Matters. A nice old school vibe to it as well.

Hoodie Allen-Leap Year (Mixtape)


I began writing Leap Year when I decided to leave my job at Google and follow my passion. The thirteen track album is a look into my world and what it means to step out of my comfort zone. I wanted Leap Year to mirror my life and experiences--it’s fun, crazy, sarcastic, and introspective-- its me growing up on record. I finally sat down and listened to this mixtape and it's really solid so make sure to check it out.
