Snoop Dogg stopped by the Jimmy Fallon show to drop off some holiday cheer in the form of reading Dr. Suess’ book for the kids, with some slight adult variations. Just as I expected this video is hysterical, and Snoop is one of the few stars in hip-hop who can pull it out. Felipe posted [...]
Rosa Acosta assists Mike Posner on this video off of his A Matter of Time mixtape. The video chronicles Rosa as the “drug dealer girl” on Duke’s campus and then shows her stretching lol. I wasn’t really sure of the connection either but I wasn’t mad when I saw it. Sidenote: I like the new [...]
Something about this video doesn’t seem right. It might be the fact that I expect better production from GOOD Music since their other artists always put out much higher quality videos or maybe it is a lack of continuity with the plot, either way I was left wanting more from it. I would really like [...]
Tabi could be my favorite artist with the least amount of posts on B&B because of everything else he is involved with (his clothing line, directing videos, etc.) we rarely get to hear from him outside of new albums. This video has actually been out for 3 months according to his Vimeo account but today [...]
Wale – Say Something FreestyleThis is the latest freestyle from Mr. Never Wear the Same Thing over the Timbaland/Drake song “Say Something”. The beat is something I have been digging since the original “Say Something” dropped way back when, I like the electronic sounding loop that is throughout the whole song. It is only a [...]
Microphone- Pro_Verb, ChRis BaRz, KT, and LyricissThis is a must listen for those who are up on the DMV scene because these artists launch a lyrical assault on it as they attempt to match Slaughterhouse on this remix. I was liking what I was hearing on the mic and am glad to get a chance [...]
Blackout (Alternate Version)Lupe has been all over the net recently and today there are several things of his that I would like to post. First is this alternate version song for “Blackout” which was available as a bonus song on the Japanese version of The Cool. Trey Songz basically takes over the chorus but besides [...]
I was debating between this and a Portishead video but Melanie Fiona was more up my alley so I hope you all enjoy it. Sorry to Felipe for taking so many Toronto posts recently but honestly it has been the most consistent city in terms of releasing their artists on the web/blogosphere/net. I am liking [...]
Since the live show is one way to supplement slumping album sales in hip-hop I thought this would be a great post to include on the site. The Black Keys accompany Mos and Jim on this track which is off of the BlackRoc self-titled album. For those who don’t know, Damon Dash got together a [...]
drake_feat._colin_munroe-runaway_girl_(prod._tha_bizness)I was kind of shocked that Drake took some of the singing duties on this song since Colin is the specialist but he held his own and it was solid. It almost seems natural for these two to do a song together since they both specialize in the lighter side of hip-hop and of course [...]
Lupe gives us a video for his song “Solar Midnite” which graced the New Moon soundtrack. The album is an orgy full of indie rockers and Lupe takes a hard rock edge to fill in nicely for the hip-hop contingent on the album. The video itself is a bunch of set shots in the city [...]
This is now at least a few days late but it still deserves a post. Le Tour De Loisirs Professionelle (i.e. The Professional Leisure Tour), is the latest free EP (i.e. mixtape) from the Kidz. Naledge and Double-0 needed a buzz-builder for their upcoming album Land Of Make Believe, and what better way to do just that [...]
XV ft. Rickie Jacobs – Questions (Original Version)This is the original version of this song and it finally gets to see the light of day.The final version to this joint appeared on one of XV’s mixtapes but Mickey Factz ended up replacing Rickie Jacobs (out of Baltimore) on the final version! Two years after it’s [...]
The artist formerly known as Print finally drops off some new music after a little bit of a hiatus. This will be the lead single from his upcoming project and I hope he drops the mp3 on us soon. I was psyched to hear him say that he is working on a new project for [...]
Common-Start_the_Show-_ExtendedI was glad I caught this today because this song is something I still play to this day. Common hits us with a new verse on the end and it definitely adds to the already great song. Finding Forever is an album that I bumped for a while and am glad to hear something new [...]
Mos Def keeps the production simple with “Supermagic” and I like it. It won’t be winning video of the year but I am a sucker for videos that have good, simple visuals so the artist can emphasize their lyrics. The album was recently nominated for a grammy for Best Rap Album too so congrats to [...]
Cudder is getting a lot of posts on B&B these days but it really is a testament to how highly both Felipe and I regard him as an artist. “Pursuit of Happiness” was one of my favorite (possibly favorite) on Man on the Moon: the End of Day and Cudi finally releases the video for [...]
Eminem – Drop The Bomb On _EmI also was holding off on posting this song but according to nation at Nah Right Shady Records wants it out on hip-hop sites. Eminem teams up with his old mentor Dre for another banger that I liked more than most of what Em has been releasing lately. There [...]
I was very impressed with this video for the song off of Rhymefest’s upcoming album El Che. The old propaganda and racist cartoons add an interesting aspect to the song as does the animation of him shooting in the chorus. Videos that add something to the song seem to be becoming rarer to find and [...]
08 Elevatas _featuring Kid Cudi_This is my favorite R&B song in a while already after one listen. I think it is a combination of the artists, since I like both of them, and the song itself, which is well done and catchy. This is the latest from Robin Thicke’s Sex Therapy album which drops in [...]
