Young M.A x Max YB x Korleone | Freestyles On Flex | Freestyle #138 (Part 2) [Video]

Never let the devil into your house… Facts!! But artists, YOU better get in and get it IN whenever and wherever you can!

And once you get at a mic in front of Funk Flex, with M.A co-signing you, you better KILL IT! And, yes, we know it’s a tense situation. But so what??! Take that pressure. Then put it all into that mic! Like these young spitters did; on the spot, off the cuff. Max YB & Korleone gave Flex enough content for a Part 2!

Andre 3000 x Madlib – “Otis Benjamin 2.0” (MadStacks) [Album]

WHO could have seen this coming? Not a dope mashup project from Altered Crates. That’s just what they do. Meaning who saw this particular combination working on wax (you know what I mean).

Andre 3000 & Madlib perfectly blended. Enjoy!

As the world continues to wait for Andre 3000’s solo album, Altered Crates delivers the next best thing; Otis Benjamin 2.0 – Blending together many of Andre’s standout verses and features, including unreleased acapellas, with the Californian beat-master and mad-genius, Madlib. The Outkast MC’s signature flow meshes perfectly with Madlib’s eclectic style. Includes appearances by Big Boi, Pimp C, Nas, Raekwon, Snoop Dogg, Devin The Dude & Q-Tip.

Fabolous – “Us Vs. The World” feat. Chris Brown x Teyana Taylor (Video)

Damn!

Teyana is really a BEAST with the bedroom BARZ!! Wish we could really see her in this vid though (yes yes, body BLESSED).

And great choice of Chris Brown for crooning the hook. Both he and Tey are very Hip-Hop adjacent in their music and lifestyle, which works well on this track.

Fabolous stays winning with another hot one (emphasis on HOT) from the latest mixtape from his “Summertime Shootout” series.

(That beat though!)

DaBaby – “BOP” (Live Performance) [Video]

Okay, I declare an official end to the hate. DaBaby is alright with me… especially after a performance like this. But you make up your own mind. I was clapping at the end of this live “BOP” performance on SNL, but you don’t have to. Turns out, DaBaby’s got his own ‘clapping’ going on in this #WOWZERS #HandstandYAMS

Sammy Gezus – “Freddy Krueger” feat. Taj Mahal (Prod. By Sypooda) [Video]

Okay, New York is back again! But not, like, NYC, but upstate NY. Following that wave from the likes of Griselda Gang (like Benny, Conway, West Side Gunn, you know) coming out of Buffalo, NY, we now have Sammy Gezus blessing a track. And Taj Mahal got his back on this “Freddy Krueger” fire! Syracuse, NY, stand up!

Sammy Gezus finally lets loose his video to his single Freddy Krueger. The wave of Up state Hip-Hop is rapidly taking over and Sammy is showing the world that Syracuse has Top Tier spitters and they are a force to be reckoned with. Sammy Gezus went and got his Gawd Sqwad brother veteran MC Taj Mahal to lay down some grit and grime over this ruff track produced by the Sypooda. Keep your eye out for these guys.

Alexis Renee – “Racks” (Lyric Video)

Okay, I learned of Alexis Renee and her industry moves a few years back by listening to The Remix. She’s nice with hers. She was back on the show this past weekend (link to the interview audio, via earlier post, below). Now, I’ve come across her in person, too, but when I did, she was so low-key it was like a don’t-bother-me-now-son vibe. Intimidating in a way. But I gotta push past all that. Dope music like this helps; giving me courage (wink).

Speaking of ‘intimidating’… check out that pic I embedded for all y’all after the jump. Wooooo! Oh my damn! Like THAT, Alexis?? Looking deliciously intimidatingly SEXY! Giving me my LIFE! I see ya sharing the “Racks” though. No money, but the glamour shot is definitely money!

Yeezus WEST, that woman is BLESSED! With talent and all that. Her ‘gram game is fire, too (check it out).

Twista – “Stackin Paper” (Video)

N!ggas talking yadda, yadda, yadda… I don’t give a f**k I got a lotta dollas…

Once again, the OG Twista is sniping and snapping on a track. That’d be enough for me truthfully. But I do appreciate the ‘scenery’… a house full of money stacks and stacked Honeyz with nice backs and racks. Thicknesses. Mercy!

Live, Twista. LIVE!

Gino1300 – “Santa Story” (Prod. By Beatowski) [Video]

Ho ho, n!gga! Gimme everything. On my son, I need everything!

Jacking Santa Claus???? Say it ain’t so. Unbelievable!

What’s even more unbelievable is what Saint Nick ended up doing about getting hit. Nothing ‘Good Ole’ about that lick back. Wow… ’tis the season… Welcome to Chicago!

(But WAIT! There’s MORE to the “Santa Story.” Watch until the very end. Damn Gino1300. Wowwww…)

Flower Child – “Autumn Leaves” (Video)

Heard from Flower Child aka FLOZILLA this past weekend on local radio (shout to fam on ATL’s The Remix, follow @ATLRemix and tell a friend). Not much info on her on the Interwebs, but The Remix did a full interview with her, and the latest show audio archives will have that with all the tea on this young lady emcee. This “Autumn Leaves” got a good spin on the show, too. Nice!

Matter of fact… here’s the archived audio of the show right

Crank Lucas – “Wealthy Rapper Still Sells Drugs” (Video)

Tsk, tsk, tsk… What is going to happen to Crank’s career when rappers stop doing dumb stuff (even AFTER they ‘make it’) and he has to come up with new things to make fun of?

Not gonna worry about that now. PLENTY of dumb sh!t to make fun of. Crank Lucas [still] in the building!

E-40 – “1 Question” feat. Jeremih x Rick Ross x Chris Brown (Video)

Confession: When I heard this beat, and saw E-40 was the lead, I was like, “Um… what’re we doing here? Not this beat. Not this vibe. Not for 40 Water…”

But I kept listening, trusting The Force, and turns out this is a dope track. Respect and apologies all around.

Rebel Rodomez – “Scare No One” feat. Benny The Butcher (Prod. By E. Smitty)

N!ggas wanna clout chase. Nothing more popular than a dead rapper.

Rebel Rodomez and Benny The Butcher spazzed the f**k out on this “Scare No One” fam. Maybe some folks need to be scared though, at least of this jawn. Fair warning. Built on an E. Smitty beat foundation (ATL stand up), stacked with solid layers of barz and BARZ!

Domani – “Not A Rapper” (Video)

Don’t label me anything. Still I’m everything.

Beyond braggadocio and just rapping about it… Something more than just a ‘rapper’… Domani is driving himself to be the greatest… and to make sure his grandkids’ grandkids eat well.

Go get ’em young sire!

“Not A Rapper” is the latest single off the “Time Will Tell” LP (out now).
