Raekwon – “Just 4 Laughs Part II”

Raekwon gets the fans ears ready for his upcoming mixtape due November 25th with this “Just 4 Laughs Part II” freestyle he let leak today. It’s just a lyrical sparring type of joint & different than the “Just 4 Laughs” joint he dropped in May of last year but overall this should hold you real fans over for a little…..”You ‘Ol Shar Pei Face Ass Nikkas” Hahaaa!

Nas Rocks New York City Show & Brings Out AZ, Common, & Mos Def (Video)

Saw alot of people I follow on twitter who happen to be in NYC talk about this show when it was going down last night. It was only a matter of time before video surfaced of Nas ripping a show at NYC’s Webster Hall. I think this may have been a surprise performance because it’s not like Nas to rock over his own vocals at shows. Maybe the DJ just pulled up some quick Nas joints out of his serato. Nas also brought out a few special guests to the stage with him in Common, AZ, Mos Def, Maino. More video under the hood….

Cocaine 80s – Ghost Lady (EP)

Cocaine 80s dropped their collaborative self-titled EP earlier this year & surprisingly they drop this brand new EP entitled “Ghost Lady” today. Cocaine 80s, is a singer, songwriter, & production collective, consisting of producer NO I.D., James Fauntleroy, Kevin Randolph, Rob Kinelski, Steve Wyreman, & songtimes Common. A.E.I.O.U….and sometimes Y. (Rimshot). Well you get the picture even if the joke didn’t come off right the music does. I’ve had this particular song called “Six” featuring Common on repeat since I’ve heard it. Straight dopeness. Check out a few key tracks & download the full project below.

Immortal Technique – Toast to the Dead (Prod. By J. Dilla)

Immortal Technique had been quiet for a few in terms of releasing new material. Although he hasn’t been dropping politically based freestyles or anything like that recently he has turned up on video speaking out during the #Occupy Protest Movements that are taking place everywhere. This new joint “Toast To The Dead” is the setup to his upcoming album “Martyr” which will feature other skilled emcees like Styles P, Brother Ali, & Joell Ortiz.

Coultrain – ‘Green’ (Tall Black Guy Remix)

Producer Tall Black Guy does an excellent job with this soulful remix of Coultrain’s already dope “Green” joint. I like the original version, but I LOVE this remix right here. Tall Black Guy gives it a little more bounce & sway without losing the most important & essential part of the song which is rooted in its soulfulness.

Sincerely Yours – ‘Keeper (Remix)’ (Video)

The young lady in the video’s name is Jazzma Crofton?!?!? yeah this song is dope but she is DOPER!!! Song is by Chicago MC Sincerely Yours from his self titled mixtape.

Fat Joe – ‘Another Round’ feat. Chris Brown

Fat Joe is back with a new single featuring Chris Brown that’s definitely geared to the ladies. I believe this new joint called “Another Round” is a bonafide hit record primarily because savvy music heads can pick up the subtle influence from a previous hit record. I believe many brothers may dig this joint if they’re old enough to remember the classic Troop joint I Will Always Love You. It sounds like they either sampled the Troop record or was influenced by that classic R&B record from that first dropped back in 1989.

Syrian Man Pulls A 150 Ton Train (Video)

If Steve Jobs, who was of Syrian heritage, was considered to be one of the greatest inventive minds of our generation, then this 30 year old Syrian man is aiming to be one of the greatest strongmen from that land. Check out the video as he pulls a 150 Ton train. That’s the equivalent of 300,000lbs…

Common Speaks about Signing with Warner Bros Records (Video)

Common’s new album The Dreamer, The Believer has been pushed back to December. Here is an interview we posted back in July where Common talks about signing with Warner Bros. He sounded very optimistic about the new situation at the time. Maybe the new song below he has with this part-time group Cocaine 80s will end up on the album…

Poly-Sci: Gadhafi (Video)

While some people are celebrating the death of Moammar Gadhafi let’s take a closer look at who he really was & the politics behind his death. Nothing is ever black or white but varying shades of grey which is why it’s very important to look beyond your local news to get more information. Our colleague Rahiem Shabazz said it best over at his site

“If you do a little research it may surprise you that the leader of the revolt in Libya spent his last 20 years in Langley, Virginia at the CIA Headquarters. Clearly, this is a CIA sponsored revolt with America giving arms and support to the rebels. Imagine if Russia or China would have gave weapons and monetary support to the Black Panthers in the 60′s to overthrow this government. That is what the U.S.A is doing in Libya.”

Jhene’ Aiko – “My Mine” (Video)


Dope new video for Jhene Aiko’s song “My Mine” off of her equally as dope Sailing Soul(s) album that dropped back in March of this year. It was one of the better R&B albums released this year & it was a FREE album. I’m just surprised that this is only the second video she dropped for the project as the year draws to a close.
