Charles Hamilton & Yung Nate - Take You to the Top

noreply@blogger.com (J.D.) — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 21:37:00 +0000

As far as my email from Hamilton's Demevolist crew, this is a previously unreleased track with Hamilton and Yung Nate.

Hamilton is slowly making his way back in to the NYC scene, as he appeared recently at Esso's mixtape release...word is that he's been cooking up heat. As song by song basis kind of supporter of Hamilton, I'm interested in hearing new material.

Young Chris ft. Raheem Devaughn - Want to Love You (NoDJ)

noreply@blogger.com (J.D.) — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 21:32:00 +0000

Looks like Young Chris' mixtape tracks are dropping one by one with the DJ-less versions. I'm okay with it. Thanks to Young Sav.

The Ting Tings ft. Wale - That's Not My Name

noreply@blogger.com (J.D.) — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 20:27:00 +0000

Not a fan of the song itself, but Wale drops a nice, speedy verse midway through the track. Thanks to Elitaste.

And if you didn't already hear, the Wale album will now be dropping early October. Hopefully it doesn't get the 'Back to the Feature' treatment. I would assume a new single should be coming early to mid September.

'Run This Town' Video Preview

Even if you don't like the track, give the dude credit for not making a music video of him walking through a club or standing in front of a car. Looks interesting.

Drake Has Finally Arrived...

noreply@blogger.com (J.D.) — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 17:57:00 +0000

...cuz you're nobody until no name, horrible 'rappers' put out a diss record directed toward you. I'd like to see what goes through these peoples minds while recording this. Probably not a whole lot, I guess.

A big

goes out to nobody rappers yapping about the next man over a whole lotta nothing.

Vick Speaks at Eagles Press Conference

noreply@blogger.com (J.D.) — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 17:40:00 +0000

If you still haven't heard for some reason (if you follow football), Vick has a two year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles. Not sure how that QB situation is gonna work out, but time will tell. Overall, it seems like there are mixed reactions from Eagles fans, but there is some optimism being shown about the situation.

This morning, Vick had his press conference discussing the scenario.HERE is the accompanying story.

Don't Take Jada's Champagne

noreply@blogger.com (J.D.) — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 16:59:00 +0000

Saw this over at RR. I guess these guys are filmed 24/7 doin a whole lotta nothing, but Jadakiss is entertaining nonetheless.

Kiss waiving the Duct Taped up bat in this guys face is priceless.

These are some quickstrike Nike Skateboarding kicks for the month of August. If you're not familiar with the term quickstrike, it simply means they'll only be available at select stores and, generally, won't be re-stocked once they're gone. Image via Atlas.

There will be complimentary drinks on site, with the fashion show/performances leading up to an afterparty...so definitely sounds like a great night.

Freeway - Alright

noreply@blogger.com (J.D.) — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 01:43:00 +0000

Always loved this track, playing it back to back. Philadelphia Freeway was an underrated album. Do you realize it came out 6 and a half years ago?

On the flipside, not everyone is familiar with the fact that the singer, Allen Anthony, put out the same song in a full RnB version. Trying to find that now.

*Edit...found it!

Allen Anthony - Alright

Bobby Creekwater off of Shady

noreply@blogger.com (J.D.) — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 01:16:00 +0000

Coulda seen this coming from a mile away. Really, where would be Creekwater's chance to debut his first full length Shady feature? 50 Cent can't even put out a project at this point, so it's better for Creek to be doing his own thing.

Time to go make some of that overseas money like G-Unit's Hot Rod is doing right now...

Ray Cash-Certified (Feat. Curren$y and D.A.)-Produced By M.Stacks

Ray Cash is one of my favorite artists. His first album was soooo slept on. Here's some new ish he just dropped off on his twitter (twitter is the place for exclusives, get on it folks!). I can't wait for the mixtape, but for now, this laid back joint will do.

Peace,

Also, the guys of Slaughterhouse stopped by Hot 97 today to discuss various things, like their newly released record and Budden's whole situation. Check that out:

I was told in the email containing this media that the slaughterhouse disc is on pace for circa 25k sold for next week's charts. Add up the internet sales and I'm sure they pulled decent figures. But I won't harp on sales. Quality music.

Hope dropped off the video (via twitter) to go with the dopeness that is "Nightlife". If you haven't listened to FOLLOW THE LEADER (H.O.P.E.'s free album), then I suggest you get in line, NOW!. I personally can't wait to hear what's up next for the up and coming emcee. Dope U-N-I cameo btw, exactly what I envisioned or is it invisioned? oh well.

Essentially, you pay your $24 bucks for the shirt HERE and cash earned from the sales will go to both the families of Baatin and J.Dilla of Slum Village. Big up to Mick Boogie for doing this.
