Watch The Throne - Review

Watch the Throne has officially been released to the world, and its another great album. I was fortunate to get a early digital copy of the album, so I listened front to back, and on shuffle, just to make sure I could appreciate each song individually. I think the album is a classic Jay-Z style album as far as song selection is concerned infused with great Kanye beats. The lyrics are also dope because each rapper expresses their wealthy lifestyle and personal life issues with great metaphors, mixing current slangs with exclusive name drops normally known only to the rich & famous. But they both have a way of making you feel whatever tax bracket you fall under, you are a baller just like them. Go support and join the Throne.

Watch The Throne Otis

Just heard this on the radio the other day, Flex played it for about 45mins straight..lol.. But in true Jay-Z form after about 12hours on the net it was basically removed from every legit site pushing music.  Thanks to my college education I was able to do a little trickery and get my hands on the official, so let the sharing continue. Go Support 8/2/2011

 

Jay-Z & Kanye West - Otis

 

2 Pac Back!!!

Rozay is back at it again with a more solid team, Meek Mill & Wale, because we all know Ross's homeboy Gunplay is a trash rapper.  The marketing plan MMG came up with is genius by releasing the video to their hit single Tupac Back the same day as the late great rappers would be 40th birthday.  The Self Made crew isn't the only ones in the spotlight in relation to Pac, according to Billboard.biz a incarcerated associate of Jimmy Henchmen has confessed to the 1994 Quad Studio's shooting. Dexter Isaac told authorities “Now I would like to clear up a few things, because the statute of limitations is over, and no one can be charged, and I'm just plain tired of listening to your lies," he went on to claiming he was paid $2,500 and kept jewelry stolen from Shakur during the shooting.  If this story is true then this would be huge to the Hip Hop world, but we all know that convicts can't be trusted.  Through all the lies and cover ups, I don't think we will ever know the truth, all we can do is let 2 Pac rest in peace and enjoy his influence on our beloved Hip Hop Culture.

Dark Twisted Fantasy T-Shirts

Much Props to Nah Right.  Kanye did a collabo w/ George Condo and released some pretty fly t-shirts.  Each shirt features a different album art from his latest album "My Dark Twisted Fantasy".  The lucky members of Cochella got 1st dibs, everyone else will have to hit up Karmaloops to get theirs.

My Bad Son

Your man Beans finally man'd up and apologized to Hov. According to a phone interview he had with XXLMag.com, he explains how he got caught in the moment and expressed some feelings he probably should have kept to himself, because at the time he didn't mention anything about the opportunity Jay-Z gave him. The opportunity to stay out of jail, make great money for the rest of his life, and provide a better quality of life for himself and family. I'm glad Sigel realized this so quickly because this beef was definitely a unfortunate one in Hip Hop. "Beans I ain't tryin to change you - just give you some game, to make the transition, from the street to the fame" (Jay-Z - Blueprint(momma loves me).

You not a writer, You a biter

I know when you are coming up in the world you gotta pay dues, show respect, and stay in your lane, especially to the people above you that you respect and look up to. But when those same people are your main competition paying homage can easily turn to bitin' (ask nikki minaj & lil kim). But Jason Derulo missed that meeting and straight jacked Kanye West for his 'All of the Lights' video concept on his new song 'Don't wanna go home'. Kanye's video is a really dope video and concept, which probably has been done before, but for the kid to swagger jack in the same summer is just crazy. C'mon Son(ed lover voice) #FOH!!!

Yo I can't wait to check this out.  "Get Him to the Greek" is a hilarious movie about a music biz nobody, played by Jonah Hill, resurrecting "Diddy's" record label. Hill, must bring a huge rock star, played by Russell Brand, to the over the the U.S. from the U.K. to perform in their anniversary concert.  It's funny, freaky, and has all your favorite characters from recent blockbuster comedies.
