February 10, 2013
Perfect timing during all the Grammy hoop-la for the Toronto native to drop his brand new video from one of his better hip hop related songs in recent years. It’s all about the come up. Many of us can relate to starting from the bottom, but few actually make it….

Meek Mill – “Amen” feat. Drake
July 15, 2012
North Philly rap artist Meek Mill’s latest single “Amen” featuring Drake is catchy as hell, but it’s most definitely not a gospel record in any shape or form. The song is the latest single to appear on Meek Mill’s upcoming album “Dreams & Nightmares” due August 28th pushed back to October 30th on Maybach Music Group. If you’ve just left church thinking this is an inspirational gospel hip hop record you’ll be sadly mistaken. Amen. Chuuuuch. Preeeeeach. Tabernacle.
Studio Session: Pusha T & R&B Singer ‘The-Dream’ Speak On Their ‘Exodus 23:1’ Collaboration (Video)
May 25, 2012
It’s interesting in this MTV video Pusha T & The-Dream discuss everything about working together on this song, but the interviewer may have failed to ask Pusha T about who he’s talking about in this new ‘Exodus 23:1’ record. Yeah Yeah it doesn’t take much to figure out who he’s talking about already **COUGH** Drake **COUGH** but it would good to see an official response. Battles are good for hip hop as long as cats keep it all on the record & showcase their skills….

Commons Speaks On Ending The Beef With Drake (Video)

“In a candid interview in Los Angeles with Cabbie Richards, hip hop artist Common reveals how he and Drake squashed their beef before the 2012 Grammy Awards. They met face to face and had an amicable resolution. Common also denies rumors that his beef with Drake emanated from Drake’s alleged relationship with tennis star Serena Williams.

MTV Names Their Hottest Rappers In The Game For 2012 (Video)
February 20, 2012
I labeled this as “MTV’s Hottest Emcees Rappers In The Game” because not everyone on this list is an “emcee”….some are just rappers or singers. Either way it is what it is…Rap lists these days don’t hold much weight, but if you’re a real hip hop head like myself then you’ll chuckle out loud at some of things said by people on this panel. Ah well…What’d you expect from MTV & the current state of radio & rap music these days…Overall it’s just a reflection of how bad “mainstream” rap music is. There’s plenty of great music out there, but most of it ISN’T on the radio unfortunately. One thing I was surprised about was seeing the homie @BosNaud was on this panel. I haven’t looked at all the vids as of yet so I hope he represented well. Check out links to the discussion on the other candidates on “MTV’s 2012 Hottest Rappers On The Radio Payola” “MTV’s 2012 Hottest Rappers In The Game” list below….

Common – “Stay Schemin” Remix (Dissing Drake)
January 9, 2012
Common hops on the Rick Ross, French Montana, & Drake joint to respond back to the Toronto kid’s subliminal disses. Honestly I don’t feel like Drake would win a lyrical battle against Chi-town’s finest emcee unless someone wrote the battle raps for him. On a blackberry. Ironically enough Drake’s verse on this joint sounds like Rick Ross wrote it.

Girl Transforms Into Drake Using Only Makeup (Video)
January 6, 2012
This young lady needs to get a job in Hollywood as a makeup artist. In this video above she uses makeup to completely transform herself into a Drake look-alike. I laughed out loud when she did Drake’s hand wave motion at the end. Maybe Drake is really a female artist posing as a male. I kid I kid…Hahaaa!

Common Confirms that ‘Sweet’ Was A Diss Towards Drake (Video)
December 20, 2011
I said it early on my radio show a few weeks back that the song “Sweet” on Common’s newly released “The Dreamer, The Believer” album was dissing Drake & now Common finally confirms it in his interview with Sway on Sirius XM radio. I believe it all started with Drake’s song “Marvin’s Room” & Serena Williams dancing on video at Drake’s crib. If you’ve been out of the loop Serena Williams & Common have had a very public relationship. Apparently I’m not the only one who saw this coming as most people are blaming Common for provoking this so-called “Beef”….

Ludacris – Bada Boom (Video)
November 24, 2011
Ludacris drops a new video for his diss record aimed at Big Sean & Drake who had been taking not so subtle shots at him a few months back. Luda is nice with his pen game & honestly I’d be surprised if they responded lyrically, but then again some people tend to be turned off by lyrical battles. Not me though…

Future Says Drake’s Absence In “Tony Montana” Video Is A “Slap In The Face”
November 4, 2011
Honestly I could careless about either Drake or Future, I’m not so familiar with either one of them for many reasons, but it did start a conversation in hip hop circles about established artist supporting newer acts and vice versa. Lots of different people have chimed in on this topic in the last few days.
