The Diplomats – “On God” feat. Belly (Prod. By MurdaBeats) [Video]
November 27, 2018
Interesting style changeup for The Dips. Got some new school bounce to the flows, but still The Dipset essence in there. Give a spin around the block (on iTunes now, if you actually want to download and take this new Dip to the whip roll around the block and play it).

Black Thought – “Streams Of Thought†(Vol. 2) [EP]
November 27, 2018
Basic literary rules… if there is a Volume 1, there should at least be a Volume 2. Black Thought, lyrical literary genius, in turn, followed his first “Streams Of Thought” with a Vol. 2 (produced by Salaam Remi). Check the stream for more dopeness…

Stetsasonic’s Daddy-O Says Rakim Lied (Video)
November 26, 2018
Rakim…Is he the greatest emcee? No.
(Insert that disturbing record scratch sound here.)
Now, I am Stetsa Crew loyal for LIFE! Love Stetsasonic. So, I can admit to being torn about this. But not so much; need to hear who Daddy-O is thinking is #1. Besides, the throne is not truly the throne if it cannot be challenged. Word to Wakanda. The title of ‘greatest’ or ‘best’ or whatever MUST be able to be called into question if we are going to acknowledge or crown any royalty in Hip-Hop.
And that’s not even the controversy here. It’s the allegation that the G.O.D.M.C. lied. Watch and see exactly how Stet frontman Daddy-O says Rakim Allah lied…

AceQuared – “Be Someone” (Prod. By The Glowsticks)
November 26, 2018
Dope smoothness! Don’t know much about AceQuared right now, but my eyes are open and my ear is on the highway (as in Internet… Superhighway… because… nevermind, it was an old reference)! I do know that Abdullah “AceQuared” Abdulhadi is a rapper/singer/songwriter from Amman, Jordan, based in Toronto, Canada; because that is what his social info says. Spotify shows that he is being heard in Ontario, Germany, and in the U.S. (Los Angeles & Chicago). However, that footprint should grow if he keeps hitting bloggers inboxes as hard as he has been hitting ours. There have actually been several submissions, but there are only so many hours in our days. I finally got to take a good listen, and I am betting you will enjoy this “Be Someone” if you take a listen, too. One time for persistence!
“Be Someone” is an ode to home, for me home is where the heart is! It has a nice chill beat with motivating lyrics to go with it. “Be Someone” was released last week and has already been added to multiple radio stations, playlists and blogs across North America.

Jill Scott Calls In To Speak On Her Recent Display Of ‘Skills On The Mic’ Going Viral (Video)
November 23, 2018
If you are looking for an apology for her flexing her extra sexy on stage recently (see here, again), Jill Scott does NOT have it for you. Sucka!
No need to apologize to me, at all, by the way, Jill. In fact, I want more… Wait what? No more shows for a while because WHAT?? Aw maaaan 🙁
Well, we understand. Tell Joe Budden all about it.

Signature Swizzy bounce to this beat. Sets up perfectly for Montana to mash right on into the track… and for the rest of y’all to crack that paper, load up, and smoke the la-lala… should you so choose to party that way. It’s a hype party either way!
Another banger off the “Poison” LP.

GZA Rates Republicans, White Castle, And Killer Bees As ‘Overrated’ Or ‘Underrated’ (Video)
November 22, 2018
Save the bees!
Interesting Over/Under answers. Though GZA says he has never seen a ‘sexy nun’ he did slip a slick line in about them, whether he realized it or not… that reference to them making a ‘habit’ of what they wear (e.g. nuns wear habits, get it?).

Drag-On – “Your Momma Proud” (Video)
November 21, 2018
Don’t get it twisted. I’m all for the love. But when that love get too pushy, it comes to a shove.
Dat dam Drag! Soooo… he’s okay with the pound-and-keep-it-moving but be easy with more than that man. Too much of a good thing can end in a bad way. In other words, don’t be a “moupie” (i.e. a “male groupie”) man. In other words, I will let Drag-On hit you with his message with some other words #BARZ

Maybe.
