Fresh off bodying the fuck out of Curtis' latest single, Joell Ortiz comes back with yet another freestyle for the people. Strangely, I didn't get to experience that which Joell chose to title his freestyle as despite my 12+ hour party schedule. More power to me (and my brain cells) I guess. Check back with me next week and I'll probably be singing a different tune.Joell Ortiz - "Sunday Hangover
New track from the West's S.A.S. with Stoney Jackson producer Madlib with long-time collaborator Talib Kweli called "Sometimes." Apparently, it's also the first official single from the album. I've been hearing only good things about Stoney Jackson project, so I'm very excited to hear it in full.Strong Arm Steady and Madlib feat. Talib Kweli - "Sometimes"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
Here's the latest leak off BK's Sha Stimuli's upcoming debut album My Soul to Keep. I've heard two very different dates for this album, this Tuesday the 27 or next November 27. Not sur which to believe, but I'm pretty sure it's this Tuesday.Sha Stimuli - "Sometimes"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
See what I mean? It's been out for two days and I'm now just posting it. In all honesty, I'm not wholly impressed by it. It's a dope song, no doubt. But the beat is boring, Pharrell's hook sucks and Cam...well, Cam is nice on it, but in a really "WTF?" way. So, I guess it isn't that disappointing, but it should have been legendary.The Clipse feat. Cam'ron and Pharrell - "Popular Demand (Popeyes)"
Yeah, I know. Late pass. Just wait for the next post I've got on deck, that one needs a super late pass. Anyway, here's Gab's recent collab with fellow indie emcees Brother Ali and Del the Funkee Homosapien. Very dope in my opinion. Gab really is nice as fuck.Gift of Gab feat. Del the Funkee Homosapien and Brother Ali - "Dreamin'"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
So the body portion of the Slaughterhouse crew jumped on Curtis' latest apparently"aggressive" song "Crime Wave." Why the "aggressive"? 'Cus Curtis has never had aggressive in his career, excluding maybe 1 or 2 songs.Joell Ortiz - "Crime Wave Freestyle"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
Yeah, I could apologize about my absence yesterday, but fuck that. I had avery good time yesterday. Anywho, two new cuts from Mr. Price, off his upcoming Kimbo Price project. It's looking like fire to me.Sean Price feat. Royce Da 5'9" and Petro - "Goodnite!!!"Sean Price - "Godfather Part P"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
New mixtape from Philly Freezer with DJ Benja Styles called The Calm Before the Sotrm. Yeah, I know: random-ass post, since I'm drunk and high right now. Fuck it, enjoy this shit, fools.DJ Benja Styles x Freeway - The Calm Before The Storm1. Intro2. When I Rap3. Spray Things4. Check Check5. Bread n Butter6. All The Cities7. Get The Doe8.

Well that plan went to hell. Anyway, Cam's little buddy Vado decided to strike out on his own lyrical front and link up with crooner August for "On His Own." This one's actually auite good in my opinion. Vado definitely has some skills, he just needs to focus them a bit more.Vado feat. August - "On His Own"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
Damn, this is crazy. I had no clue Ace coached football. Read on:In Canarsie, Brooklyn, Masta Ace is better known by the kids as Coach Ace.Almost all of them rap, but have no idea their head-coach is one of the best who ever did it… They’ll get a pass, tho : they weren’t even born the day Marley Marl gave Ace a ticket into the legend by lettin him in his mother’s apartment in Queensbridgeâ
Oh shit...despite the fact that I haven't been posting these (except for this one), I've been watching them, and all I can say is this looks fucking incredible. Cam...Clipse...Cordero? Sign me the fuck up.Cam'ron and Clipse Behind the Scenes of "Popular Demand (Popeyes)"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
New song from D-O-G-G Pound called "Westside Rydin,'" off their upcoming latest album That Was Then, This Is Now. Apparently, along with the CD itself, they'll be dropping a documentary about the Death Row experience.Tha Dogg Pound - "Westside Rydin'"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
So apparently, Kuniva is going to be dropping a solo project in the near future called Retribution. And with that, today, we also get the second leak off said project, called "Gun Game." This jawn might be worth checking out.Kuniva - "Gun Game"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
Yeah, I know: late pass extraordinaire. I can't help it, when motherfuckers want to break out the brews and blunts, what can I say? Anyway, here's a new freestyle from Mr. Yahwoa himself. Not sure what it's over, but solo Joell is always dope.Joell Ortiz - "Grand Central Freestyle"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
Cannon! New shit from Sandman off his upcoming mixtape Heart Of The City, coming soon. And yes, he takes his former cohorts' single with 'Ye. Dude is ill. I still wish he was fucking with the Re-Up, though. Too nice to not be working with them.Sandman - "Certainly a Big Deal"Sandman - "Certainly a Big Deal" Videoaddthis_pub = 'WallySean';
The homie J. Nolan came through with a link to his latest project called Resilience. Dude's a legit, legit artist. Motherfuckers should not be sleeping. He's got a number of mixtapes out and they're all ill as shit.J. Nolan - Resilienceaddthis_pub = 'WallySean';
New BBAS, you know what's up! J57 just hit me with Day 28 of Brown Bag Season, and like usual, it's a fuckin' banger. The song's called "What It's All About," and it features production from DJ Dyllemma and cuts by DJ Brace. You know what to do from here, people. Go cop that Brown Tape on iTunes.Brown Bag AllStars - "What It's All About"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
Remember when Fat Joe used to make dope music? I mean, I know it was a while ago, but bear with me, let's go back in the crates to about '95 to his a KRS-One's collab on J.O.S.E. called "Bronx Tale," produced by Diamond D. It's a crazy song, and the album's a definite classic to me, though I'd admit Don Cartegena was better.Fat Joe feat. KRS-One - "Bronx Tale"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
New shit from Termy with production by AOTP's DC the MIDI Alien called "Can't Stop Now." Not sure from where this originates, but both are nice, so I like it. Apparently, the two did an entire mixtape together back in '06. Might have to check that out and report back in the lazier hours of this weekend.Termanology - "Can't Stop Now"addthis_pub = 'WallySean';
