Comedy: The Soggy Bottom Boys – ‘Let Em Drag’ (Video)
In 2011, skinny jeans are all the rage. Not to us, but to some people. The Soggy Bottom Boys are looking to bring the saggy pants back in style with their new video ‘Let Em Drag’. Lil Travesty, HOPELESS & Yung Downfall are THE SOGGY BOTTOM BOYS on Self-D’Struk Records. For more information on the Soggy Bottom Boys make sure you check out Fahamu Pecu’s page. This joint is straight comedy, but what’s sad is that there are far too many songs similar to this on the radio that people take seriously like thIS NSFW joint called ‘Yankin’ from this chick named ‘Lady’. It’s under the hood…..

Snoop Dogg links up one mo’ gin’ with fellow celebrity smoker Willie Nelson for a track on his new ‘Doggumentary’ album that’s out now. I genuinely enjoy these folksy collabos between Willie Nelson & Snoop…..
OverDoz – ‘Don’t Wanna Be Your Girlfriend’ feat. Skeme (Video)
It’s 420 aka ‘International Weed Smokers’ day……As we continue with the 420 theme I spotted a few folks tweeting about this song & after I watched the video I found myself really digging this ‘joint’. Not sure if I would have dug it the other way around, but that’s usually how it is for me sometimes. A good video will help me enjoy the song much more if I didn’t get it the first time around.
