Kid Cudi – ‘love.’
March 4, 2015
I’m a fan of Kid Cudi’s music but I need him to deliver like he did on his first two ‘Man On The Moon’ albums. With this new single ‘love’ I believe the Cleveland Cudder is back on the right track of what I believe his fans truly expect from him. It’s that ‘Hip Hop Jimi Hendrix-type of feel’ & sound that only he do so well. Supposedly this new single will be featured on his upcoming album ‘Man On The Moon 3’.
“Something I made during the SF sessions. produced by me, keys by Dot. Sample is from one of my favorite Ratatat jams “Sunblocks”. And love to Evan and Mike for allowing me to release it.. For you. Hope it brings you some peace if you have a lonely heart out there. byeeeee 🙂 “– Kid Cudi

March 4, 2015
Masta Ace, Wordsworth, & Strickland continue to make good music together as eMC. I don’t know what happened but I could have sworn that Punchline was a part of the group as well. Whatever happened at least we hope it was an amicable split. We may have to ask more questions when we happen to get them for an upcoming interview. In the meantime, the new trio of eMC get busy lyrically with this first single called “Fly Thoughts†produced by Kic Beats & featuring Pearl Gates. The single is a part of the group’s upcoming album ‘The Tonite Show’ that will be May 5th on Penalty Entertainment.

Meet ‘The Hulk’: A Massive 175-Pound Family Pit Bull
March 3, 2015
“A TODDLER hangs off the back of a super-sized pit bull – that could snap a man’s arm with a SINGLE bite. But despite being a banned breed in the UK, breeders Marlon and Lisa Grennan say monster dog ‘the Hulk’ is 100 per cent trusted with their young son. Despite the lethal potential of 12-stone Hulk and the couple’s many other dogs, three-year-old Jordan has grown up with them within arm’s reach. The couple’s company Dark Dynasty K9s supplies animals to high-profile celebrities, billionaires and wealthy professionals – as well as law enforcement around the world. They are trained to have ‘no fear’ and some specialist dogs can even run up the side of fences and walls to reach second-floor windows. Many their dogs share their house on a sprawling 150-acre ranch in New Hampshire, USA. The dogs include more than a dozen highly trained pit bulls – and a single chihuahua.” – Barcroft TV

Kevin Garnett Makes Heroic Return To The Minnesota Timberwolves (Video)
February 26, 2015
Kevin Garnett started his NBA career as 19-year-old kid with the Minnesota Timberwolves. Unfortunately after 12 years he left the Timberwolves, eventually winning a championship with the Boston Celtics, but that didn’t stop fans T-wolves fans from welcoming back KG to the team he spent the majority of his career with. The energy was so high that even a shirt-less KG fan with ‘KG’ written on his chest was in full show out mode. Over the years KG has been one of my favorite players in the NBA & it’s going to be sad to see him leave the game. KG maybe near the end of his NBA career, but his leadership with Andre Wiggins & that young Timberwolves squad could surely leave an impact.

February 26, 2015
Kanye cracks me up when his vocal inflections in interviews keep changing up. It’s like people who use a certain voice when they are working in a corporate environment as compared to how they REALLY speak when they are off work, the tie is off, & they get around your boys talking sh*t. Hahaaaa! Check out another interesting interview of Kanye with BBC 1 Radio’s Zane Lowe as the Chicago icon discusses everything from the possibility of having more kids, the direction of his new album, dealing with the fashion industry, giving props to Drake & more. He also breaks down in tears when discussing his friend in the fashion industry that passed.

Wu-Tang Clan x David Bowie – “C.R.E.A.M. vs. F.A.M.E.” (Produced By Ryan Stinson)
February 24, 2015
Canadian producer Ryan Stinson who is the owner of the independent hip hop label Phonographique out there in the land of the great maple leaf, dropped this very dope mashup/blend featuring Wu-Tang Clan & David Bowie. This ‘C.R.E.A.M. vs. FAME’ joint is pretty ill from the the label owner who also happens to be a part of the production duo ‘The Dirty Sample’, who created the soundscapes to that dope ass ‘Three Sixty Five joint’ for Roc Marciano that we posted weeks ago. This ‘C.R.E.A.M. vs Fame’ joint is going to get much run from me on the radio show & at any other event I just so happen to be spinning at.

Elzhi – ‘February’ (Prod. By 14KT)
February 24, 2015
It felt good to look into my inbox & see some brand new music from one of my favorite Detroit emcees Elzhi. What had me even more excited was seeing that it was crafted by fellow Michigan producer 14KT who’s a beast on the beats. Although fans of Elzhi have been patiently waiting for him to drop that new album he’s been working, the timing couldn’t have been any better dropping this ‘February’ track as this cold month begins to come to a close. Another dope joint from Elzhi The Great from his upcoming project ‘Lead Poison’ due later this year in conjunction with the GLOW365 new artist alliance.
