Meek Mill – “What’s Free” feat. Rick Ross x Jay Z

Tell you what. Maybe Meek took an L on a rap skirmish, but dude’s career is winning! And the heaviest of heavy hitters will still jump on a track with the Philly fire-spitter. Like… just check out this “What’s Free” he did with Rozay and Jigga.

And check out that “Championships” LP if you haven’t already (linked below).

Wow. Triple dopeness (hmm, wonder if there’s an ‘Unsung’ on 3XDope… aaaaanywaaay)! This ‘Unsung’ on Special Ed is the business. Well worth the watching if you missed it, and worth the watching AGAIN if you saw it before.

Nicki Minaj – “Good Form” feat. Lil Wayne (Video)

Is it wrong that Nicki goes to the front of the line on the blog-o-sphere because of her unmatched sexiness? Well, if so, I don’t wanna be right! At the very least her visuals are gonna be HOTTTTT!! So, we win there. Plus, she can go. Plus, maybe there’s a Weezy fan out there.

(Whatever you need to get comfortable with this latest ‘Nooner’ post… ’cause you gone get this Nicki WORK off her “Queen” album!!)

Young M.A – “Bleed” (Video)

It’s M.A b!tch. You got something on your mind, then say that sh!t.

Look, you know the rhymes are fire. So I’ll point out something else. The merch! I mean… LOOK at that Red Lyfe cup! You could hang out and drink from a red Solo cup and be just fine. But somehow, drinking out that Red Lyfe cup… just seems like you’re doing better at the party, right? HA!

(Seriously. I like the cup.)

That Kodak Black ‘Roll In Peace’ beat makes for a great backdrop for freestyle rappers. Like this dude Mad Squablz. He murdalized that joint back a while ago!! So I grabbed a late pass so I could grab this freestyle he did over that beat.

Arsonal | Freestyles On Flex | Freestyle #116 (Video)

GeeeeeYOTdam! Arsonal is a lyrical assassin… with a LOT of weapons and shots for WHOEVER want it! And he calls names in this no-let-up bar show he put on for Funk Flex.

Got so heated in there that Flex had to take the last couple of minutes to ‘de-escalate’ the situation. RAW!!!

Been a minute since I have had occasion to post on Squablz. But I found a couple of gems from dude. First of all, this! Lyricism so acidic, his rhymes are “Rubbing Off The Paint” people!!

Chris Rivers – “I’m Litty Too”

Hey. Rivers got something to say…

Chris Rivers responds to Tory Lanez and Joyner Lucas beef with his own freestyle called “I’m Litty Too” where Chris flexed his lyrical abilities and states why he should be regarded as one of the Earth’s greatest when it comes to rapping. He doesn’t wanna be left out of the conversation and clearly when it comes to lyricists, he shouldn’t be.

50 Cent Almost… ALMOST… Offered The L.O.X. $1.5 Million Each To Sign With G-Unit (Video)

Not 100% sure how to judge the outcome of this. What do you think? Fif chose not to sign an act that he was once hyped enough to lay down 1.5 milly on? Could be seen as a very sharp turn on a very thin dime… then again, he had raw cold beef [nothing sweet, no ketchup, uncooked] with Ja Rule sooooo…

Meek Mill – “Uptown Vibes” feat. Fabolous x Anuel AA

Meek ‘dogged this beat like he was Cujo’… and then Fabo and Anuel AA jumped on the track and kicked it while it was down. A lyrical beat down, in a couple dialects. Plus that beat though!

Anderson .Paak Speaks On ‘First Times’: Old Girlfriends, Blind Dating, And The Free Nationals (Video)

Pretty good interview. Plus, relatively short and sweet.

The FADER invited Anderson .Paak to come by the studio to take a look back at his humble beginnings on the drums at a church, the first memorable job he had, and a blind date to Olive Garden that ended before it even started. He ends his trip down memory lane with the first time he knew he could rock with the Free Nationals and the story behind creating “Suede” off of his ‘Yes Lawd!’ album with Knxwledge.

Ras Kass – “Smoke Break” (Joyner Lucas Diss) [Prod. By Simplex]

Sooooo… do we file this under “keep my name out’cha mouth” or “all love, but barz as f**k!” No matter. There are not many rappers out there that really want it with Ras. And Ras is trying to hold Joyner Lucas up as an example of someone who wants NONE in this rhyme.

Fiyah!
