Throwback: Pastor Troy - This Tha City

The year is 2000 (or 2001, I forget). I'm watching BET (back when they were a good channel) and they throw on this video. Now I had heard PT before but that was the first time I had actually seen him. And what a song This Tha City was. It was (arguably) the best Pastor Troy song (well, Vice Versa was better) ever. Let's Reminisce...

Pac Div - Whiplash/Young Black Male

2 for the price of... none. Some visuals for two tracks from the last Pac Div mixtape, Church League Champions. I wasn't really feeling Young Black Male much but Whiplash was my joint. We need some more new Pac Div music now!

Torae & Marco Polo ft. DJ Revolution - Double Barrel

This is the title track to Torae & Marco Polo's Double Barrel album. I had to post this because this is my favorite track on the album (aside from Ge It, which is also a banger). The visuals match this song totally. This is one of those songs that make you want to get up and dropkick your computer (but you won't because you can't afford another one). Phenomal scratching is also displayed by DJ Revolution on the hook. Check it out.

Bonus: Torae & Marco Polo - Get It

Throwback: Twista ft. Ms. Kane - Get It Wet

Twista - Get It Wet

I remember going nuts when this video used to come on on The Box back in 96-97ish. This was my ish back in the day & until now, I thought everyone had heard of this one. I can't believe how many people have told me that the first time they heard twista was on Kanye's Slow Jams. What!? Anyway, check the part of the video where Twista turns into a tornado & becomes different people. That was so dope. This whole video was dope.

Twista ft. Ms. Kane - Get It Wet

Also, ain't it funny how Wetter sounds just like Get It Wet?

Saigon ft. Red 5ive (aka Just Blaze) - Gotta Believe It

I've been feeling this joint for a while now and it gets even better with the video. Peep the imagery. Yo Saigon, Greatest Story Never Told? Are we just gonna act like it never existed? Warning Shots 2 coming in October.

Saigon Ft. Red 5ive (Just Blaze) - Gotta Believe It

Main | Instrumental

Dwele - Travelin' Girl

This is definitely one of the standout joints on his album Sketches Of A Man and the video is great also. The video is shot like a live performance with the song altered with live instrumentation. This ish is dope. Why are folks still sleeping on Dwele?

Slaughterhouse - The One

New video from the group Slaughterhouse. If you still don't know who Slaughterhouse is, then go in your medicine cabinet and eat all of the pills (nah just kidding). Slaughterhouse is Crooked I, Joell Ortiz, Royce Da 5'9" & Joe Budden. Each member is lyrically potent enough to kill your favorite rappers but together they're like the atom bomb. The self titled abum drops early August. By the way, DJ Khalil has been dropping hit after hit lately.

Slaughterhouse - The One (Prod. By DJ Khalil)

Drake - Best I Ever Had

New video for Drake's "Best I Ever Had". This was the standout joint on his last mixtape So Far Gone. This video is directed by Mr. Kanye West (and you can tell by the number of big breasted women in the video. lol.). Check it out. Download the track and the instrumental below.

Download: Drake - Best I Ever Had (Prod. By Boi-1da) ---> Album Version | Instrumental

Jay-Z - D.O.A. (Death Of Autotune)

"Moment Of Silence"

Tyler Woods - Prove Myself

If you are still in the dark, Tyler Woods 9th Wonder's newest (well, not really newest) R&B artist. This dude has that soulful voice reminiscent of a Marvin Gaye. This track right here is so smooth and what better fit for a video location than a Rollerscating rink. Y'all remember going skating and there was always a group doing crazy tricks on the floor (or you just saw the movie ATL). 9th Wonder on the production. Check It Out.

Bonus: Rapsody, Tom Hardy & D. Mal - Shine (Produced By 9th Wonder) (Provided Courtesy of D. Mal)
Bonus: Wale ft. Mike Posner & Big Sean - Wonder Why (Produced By 9th Woder) (Provided Courtesty of 2dopeboyz)

Jamla Baby!

The Alchemist ft. Maxwell & Twista - Smile

This is my favorite Alchemist joint that will be on the new album so far. He enlists the aid of Twista & Maxwell to create this song. Man, I hope I can find an acapella to this so we can get a Radio Raheim remix. Chemical Warfare drops July. Be sure to get it.

Download: Alchemist ft. Twista & Maxwell - Smile

Charles Hamilton Gets Rocked By Angry Girl

This video is mad funny. Charles Hamilton makes this girl angry and she writes an angry rap about him and he does what Mr. Hamilton would do, make the situation worst by battle rapping her and airing her personal business out in his rap. So what does she do. She delivers a stiff right!

Whoa Mr. Hamilton. First you go get humiliated by Rhymefest, then you start stealing beats, and now you're getting punched by girls on TV. I hope she wasn't from Brooklyn. How ironic would that be? Ladies & Gentlemen, this dude is a clown. Ha ha! for real though, I liked that joint he did over Black Spades beat (even though he claimed he did that beat). By the way, this picture had me rollin all day!

M-Phazes Working On That New Amerie Album

Amerie (Singer) + M-Phazes (Producer). Yeah, I am a really big fan of both here. Two very underestimated artists, in my opinion, will be working together. Amerie did not want to be included on the video footage (that sux) but I just want to hear the collaboration which everyone keeps saying is "a lot of people's favorite".

Rhymefest - Chicago

What can I say, this video is pretty dope. The video is based off the comic books.

And as an Added Bonus I give you a classic Kanye West video...
Kanye West ft. Harlem Boys Chior, Freeway, & Mos Def - Two Words (From "College Dropout")

9th Wonder, E. Jones, & David Banner in the Stu

And as an added bonus......



The beat 9th submitted to Nas

Draft ft. Sean MC - That's Us (Prod. By The Beat Medic)

This video is for the first single off of Atlanta rapper's Draft album "Forever Young". From what I have heard so far, this album is sure to be dope.

Download: Draft ft. Sean MC - That's Us (thanks legallycrazyatl.com)

Wale - Nike Boots

Dallas Penn In The Studio With Statik Selektah & Joell Ortiz

This is footage from the recording of the Talkin Bout You (Ladies) track on Statik Selektah's latest album, Stick 2 The Script. For real, this footage is funny and this is my favorite track on the album.

Dallas Penn: So Joell, what are you doing here man?
Joell Ortiz: This is a studio...
Dallas Penn: Oh yeah, you're right.

LOL. Priceless!
