Ghostface Speaks On Upcoming Album, Wu-Tang Tattoos, Cee-Lo’s Success, & Adapting In The New Music Industry (Video)
June 16, 2011
One of my all-time favorite emcees was out on tour in London & spoke about his upcoming album, fans with Wu-Tang Clan tattoos, why artists like Cee-Lo from Goodie Mob are successful, & adjusting in today’s new music climate. Ghostface also dropped some jewels in this interview about how God may often hold you up with disappointment just to show you who’s really with you or not. Lebron James could really benefit from listening to that portion of Ghostface’s speech based on the amount of hate that brother was receiving. This was a great & entertaining interview largely because Ghostface did most, if not all, of the talking.

Lupe Fiasco Starts Working On His Next Album ‘Food & Liquor 2’
June 15, 2011
Lupe has taken a lot of heat lately but now says he has begun studio work on his next project Food & Liquor 2. Despite your take on Lupe’s politics or his crumby album Lasers, it was a commercial success. Lupe told Billboard that Food and Liquor 2 will build off what he didn’t like about Lasers.
“It’s really taking the lessons I learned from “Lasers,” and applying that to “Food & Liquor.” That’s really it.”

From Detroit To Brooklyn….Ain’t nothing like that REAL hip hop music!

R&B / Soul: Terri Walker – ‘Terri In Wonderland’ (Mixtape)
June 15, 2011
I can’t front & say that I’ve always been familiar with London born soul singer Terri Walker, but I do recall her working with Mos Def when she had an album released on Def Jam’s former Def Soul imprint. Terri has also worked with ill producer Ski Beatz in the past including putting her touch on his Camp Lo classic ‘Luchini’ production for her song ‘This Is My Time’.  Terri Walker continues to work that Ski Beatz magic by dropping this new mixtape ‘Terri In Wonderland.’ The mixtape doesn’t feature any hip hop artists with the exception of D.C’s. Tabi Bonney, but don’t get it twisted into thinking that this particular project is just another R&B singer wailing over hip hop beats. This ‘Terri In Wonderland’ goes in a variety directions which showcases Terri Walker’s influences in soul & true school hip hop but it also reflects her time growing up in the UK & Germany whose audiences musical palettes tend to span over a myriad of other genres. I can do without some of the unnecessary cursing on a track or two, but there are a few joints on here I liked. I’ve included a few joints for you to listen to below, but you can check out the full artwork, tracklisting, & download link of the entire mixtape after the jump…..

CyHi The Prynce – Royal Flush 2 (Mixtape)
June 14, 2011
CyHi Da Prynce drops the follow up to his debut Royal Flush mixtape that dropped in October of last year with this brand new re-up of new music for Royal Flush II……CyHi Da Prynce represents that bridge between various styles of music & lifestyles in Atlanta without dumbing down his talent. His music is everyday man, ladies man, street, lyrical, intelligent, club, & progressive all at once without coming off weak or too contrived. Creative. He seems to be able to repeatedly straddle those lines that the majority of artists just haven’t figured out how to pull off. CyHi Da Prynce is talented…I said it many times before…this kid is official. It’s hard to call this a mixtape. This joint right here is an album. Full tracklist after the jump……

Talib Kweli – ‘Mr. International’ (Video)
June 14, 2011
The Gutter Rainbows album that Talib Kweli released in January of this year is still one of the best hip hop albums to have dropped in 2011 so far. The only thing I was thinking that Talib should have done more is release more videos from that project. Looks like Talib Kweli decided the time was right following a recent visit to London to drop this Mr. International joint right here. Not mad at that he decided to crank the videos back up after releasing ‘Cold Rain’, ‘I’m On One’, & ‘How You Love Me’ earlier in the year. Now if Talib can spread out a few videos from Palookas with Sean Price, Wait For You, Gutter Rainbows, and for Friends & Family then he can round of the rest of the year well for the project. Maybe I’m just asking for too much huh? Nahhh
