Cassidy – “That’s A Fact Tho”
August 13, 2015
Philly braggadocio flow from Cassidy. Get it while it’s hot. Kind of an echoed out version of the ‘Hot N!gga’ instrumental for a beat. Simple music background for the lyrics. “That’s A Fact Tho” represents another chapter going into Cassidy’s ever-growing book of PLEASE-challenge-ME-to-a-battle.

The Hateful 8 (Trailer)
August 13, 2015
Tarantino. He does not do many movies. But when he does… they’re among the most interesting works of art in the world! Count on the “The Hateful 8” to keep that rep up. An all-star cast featuring a lot of actors who have a lot of time in on Quentin’s sets. Should make for a power-packed delivery of this old west flavored film.
In “The Hateful 8,” set six or eight or twelve years after the Civil War, a stagecoach hurtles through the wintry Wyoming landscape. The passengers, bounty hunter John Ruth (Russell) and his fugitive Daisy Domergue (Leigh), race towards the town of Red Rock where Ruth, known in these parts as “The Hangman,†will bring Domergue to justice. Along the road, they encounter two strangers: Major Marquis Warren (Jackson), a Black former Union soldier turned infamous bounty hunter, and Chris Mannix (Goggins), a southern renegade who claims to be the town’s new Sheriff. Losing their lead on the blizzard, Ruth, Domergue, Warren and Mannix seek refuge at Minnie’s Haberdashery, a stagecoach stopover on a mountain pass. When they arrive at Minnie’s, they are greeted not by the proprietor but by four unfamiliar faces. Bob (Bichir), who’s taking care of Minnie’s while she’s visiting her mother, is holed up with Oswaldo Mobray (Roth), the hangman of Red Rock, cow-puncher Joe Gage (Madsen), and Confederate General Sanford Smithers (Dern). As the storm overtakes the mountainside stopover, our eight travelers come to learn they may not make it to Red Rock after all.
Cordell – “Downtown” (Prod. By Abo) [Video]
August 13, 2015
Respect to Free Onsmash for finding this gem. Check how Abo chopped and screwed the SWV sample into the track for the song aptly named “Downtown” (visuals above).
Everybody wants to go someplace where everyone knows your name, and in Cordell’s hometown of Harrisburg, PA that place is Downtown. Regardless of which hood you claim, everyone will cross paths Downtown in good spirits. Check out the first official video from Cordell’s “Seven7teen: A Love Story.”

She’s Got Game: Meeting The Game (Episode 1) [Video]
August 13, 2015
Don’t think of She’s Got Game as ‘reality television’ (well, you can if you want). Think of it as The Game sharing his Eye Candy with you. For while he looks for love, we get to look over his foine azz choices. And remember, so do his friends…
…and this is a competition… meaning these ladies are all but guaranteed to hate on each other at some point. So, now you have VH1 trademark drama on deck. Use that as ‘cover’ for your ogling. Got the show’s premiere episode cued above for you to practice that.
(You can say something like, “Baby, why are they acting all wild and crazy and embarrassing themselves like that? Breastses and azz just wiggling and jiggling all over the place. And do you see what they are wearing? Wow. Let’s remember to watch for that when we rewind when we watch this again On Demand. Mm mm mm. Just trifling. Right, Honey? Honey… awww why you mad? What did I do now??! Just trying to spend quality time watching TV with you, and now you get salty.”)
Whew! Check for some snapshots after the jump. And altogether say, “Thank you, Game” (who is still rocking shows AND exec producing the show… meaning the player is still about business)!

I’m exciting to watch…whether you like it or not.
– CyHi The Prynce
And watch you may. How about this “Like it Or Not” – first single off the forthcoming “L.I.O.N.” (no release date yet), huh? Solid. Hip-Hop bravado all over the Tommy Stoner track. Know what’s with the hat and the ceremony? Yeah, us neither. But the track bangs though. Enjoy and peep the visuals above.

The Game – “100” feat. Drake (Prod. By Cardo x Johnny Juliano) [Video]
August 12, 2015
Just in case somebody out there thought Drizzy needed a street cred booster shot, enter The Game. Jayceon invited Aubrey to hop on this syzzrupy ride & swerve track to serve up some summer heat for the West Side ride. Per “100,” it seems like they lose more so-called friends or an inability to or misunderstanding about ‘keeping it real’ with them. Realness. Real smooth. Peep the visuals above.

Survivor’s Remorse (Season 2 Trailer)
August 12, 2015
Season 1 was pretty funny, and Season 2 looks to top the silliness…and the sexy. Yep, Mike Epps asked if ol’ girl licked her belly button FROM THE INSIDE!!?? Wowwwwww. Oh, and there’s basketball. And um, Lebron James (executive producer) has something to do with the whole thing (hahaaaa).
“Survivor’s Remorse,” a six-episode half-hour comedy series, follows Cam Calloway played by Jessie T. Usher, a basketball phenom in his early 20’s who is suddenly thrust into the limelight after signing a multi-million dollar contract with a professional basketball team in Atlanta. Cam, along with his cousin, and confidant Reggie Vaughn, played by RonReaco Lee, move to Georgia to start Cam’s journey to success.
The two confront the challenges of carrying opportunistic family members and their strong ties to the impoverished community that they come from. Cam, Reggie, and an unforgettable group of characters wrestle with the rewards and pitfalls of stardom, love, and loyalty.

Bryant Gumbel Speaks On His Son Being Victimized By ‘Blue on Black’ Crime (Video)
August 12, 2015
For as far back as I can remember, I have stood on the ‘Blackness’ of Bryant Gumbel. Time was, back in the day (on NBC), folks thought he was a sellout or out of touch with his community (calling him way worse). His harder-hitting stances and tenure on HBO Real Sports have given him the Bryant-don’t-play-that edge that has backed haters off a bit over the years; but still, some folks were still playing him like he wasn’t Black enough.
Any haters out there left, eat it! Sh!t or d!ck, you choose. Mr. Gumbel is one of us who can articulate the struggle ALL people of color face in this life…from a personal point of view. Watch him speak on it; relating events that included cops victimizing his son.
Sportscaster and TV host Bryant Gumbel reveals his personal feelings on the recent surge of “Blue on Black” incidents involving police violence against minorities in this interview that airs on PBS on Aug. 6, 2015. For more visit www.charlierose.com.

Yasiin Bey Versus… Any Emcee? (Video)
August 11, 2015
No doubt you’ve heard (and seen) the shots let off in the video of Yasiin Bey (the artist formerly known as Mos Def) declaring on camera that no one can test or best him, Black Thought or King Los in a rhyme fight… that anyone who thought different could meet and settle the beef for big charity dollars and bragging rights. You heard about that, right? Well if you didn’t, you can play the embedded video above.
Raw, right? Started thinking about who might step to? How about Lupe Fiasco?
Hells yes! Lupe threw down the gauntlet like, “Once again…It’s ON!”
BUT… hold up… wait…

Ice Cube Breaks Down The Lyrics To ‘Straight Outta Compton’ (Video)
August 11, 2015
Juuuust in case Ice Cube’s straightforward sword-sharp delivery of his lyrics on N.W.A.’s gangsta rap classic “Straight Outta Compton” were not strong enough to carry the message clearly to all… Vanity Fair brought in the man himself to properly interpret what he meant for his rhymes to say to the masses… and give feedback to folks who submitted what they thought Ice Cube meant. Good stuff. Watch.

Eye Candy: Karina Tio (Video)
August 11, 2015
You know what I love about this? Karina Tio is just GORGEOUS, but in the most round-the-way and non-intimidating way. Even the behind-the-scenes video above shows a shoot that was low-key in its setup, set choice, wardrobe… She’s not my usual ‘thick-a-licious’ style to post, but ANYONE would holler at her whenever and wherever you ran across her. Run across more of Karina on Instagram.
