These kids got that old school flow with it. Man! This is the type of stuff I would have done if I was 17 and from New York…or even Gary, Indiana. Nothing is nice about what they are referring to. They want the cheese and the skins…maybe even the Benz. I can’t even front on this. At all. Joey BadA$$ and Cap Steez got it.

Mac Miller feat. Pos Dnous and Raekwon – Of The Soul (remix)
Of the Soul = De La Soul. Of the Soul = anything Raekwon spits on. Therefore, Mac Miller + Pos Dnous + Raekwon = Of The Soul. I don’t know if that will mathematically work. But, with the sound of this song, my calculations are correct. I say you all get with it as soon as possible.

Ice T explains why one chick is better than 10!
The player lifestyle is always actualized as the thing to have. Realistically, I would disagree. And Ice T breaks down why the “player lifestyle” isn’t what people try to magnify it as. Trust me, all single men need to peep this out.

Hypnotic Brass Ensemble – Spottieottiedopalicious (Outkast cover)
The Chicago based ensemble made a cover track to the classic Outkast jam off of Aquemini. This is virtually impressive. For one, it sounds damn good. Second, its a classic song off a classic southern rap album. Last, it just reaffirms Outkast’s importance to music.

Action Bronson – Contemporary Man
Man, this is purely lyrical and just all around hilarious. Action goes jacking-for-beats with contemporary 80′s music and just rhymes. I guess this is part of what Party Supplies will be providing with Blue Chips? If so, this is just another guaranteed project that I will have to cop. Period.
Oh, and peep the Pistol Pete reference in the beginning.

Nardwuar vs. Ghostface Killah
These Nardwuar interviews are always informative. Learning about who he grew up with, what he grew up being influenced by, and who he loves is always a great thing to hear from Ghostface Killah. People need to listen and learn something. Peace to the Force MD’s.

Tum Tum feat. Big Sant & Killa Kyleon – Let Her Ride (R.I.P. Pimp C)
Due to the untimely death of Pimp C four years ago, there has been much dedication to his memory. And what way to have a proper dedication to this wonderful person than to make an unofficial/official reinterpretation of one of the greatest country rap tunes ever. This song came out damn near 20 years ago…and its still fresh.
Damn, UGK made classic music.

Throwback Jam: Coup – Me and Jesus the Pimp in a ’79 Grenada Last Night
Sweet Jesus, I remember this song vividly when I bought this album. You could not tell me anything bad about the Coup after this point. Boots Riley must have had talks with former whoresons to come up with a song so inflicted, beautiful, and sorrowful at the same time. Redemption was to be for the main character. Redemption indeed. Bump this if you agree with me .

Heavy D x Cookin Soul – Nuttin’ But Love (tribute remix)
This is a reason why we, as fans, need to keep up with artists from the past. People are still reeling from the death of Heavy D for for two reasons (out of many):
1.) They JUST saw him perform recently.
2.) He was always a positive force in music.
He made many songs about important positive things (love, success, not cursing, ect.) that many were afraid, or didn’t have the ability, to do. He could rock hard for the fellas, be smooth for the ladies, and be positive for the rest of the world. Plus, he was a genuine dude. My girlfriend told me about how he flew her family to her uncle’s funeral. Heavy D. paid for the flights of people he didn’t even know. Even went to their family reunion.
He was a man of honor. Period.
