XV does know how to make music. I hope people realize that he is probably here to stay. Regardless, just check for the single. He does what he does best: rhyme his ass off.

XV – Popular Culture (mixtape review) by Dead End Hip Hop
XV’s Popular Culture? Yeah, I like this project too. Zero Heroes is better. But still, it is dope to me. Most of the conceptual tracks really work.

XV feat. Schoolboy Q – AaaHH! Real Monsters
XV, XV, XV. You surely are taking your disgust out on the mic, I see. Oh, and a Schoolboy Q feature? Oh, nice! Yeah, I can get with this. It needs a visual, though. Just saying.
Popular Culture mixtape is coming sooner than you think. And I think by “sooner”, I mean tomorrow.

XV – 27 Club
Interesting title. In reference to a special numbers in their lives, XV drops a cut in reminiscence of the short time people may have on Earth. Sex, drugs, and rock & roll can take us all under. Even in hip hop.

XV – Awesome
XV is awesome! Well, at least he feels like it in this video. Truth be told, he is a damn good emcee with charisma, panache, and full time humility. In the video, there are light hearted/comedic moments with Santa, Jesus, and Lacoste wearing preppy boys. Oh, and pretty girls, money, and his homies. Glad to see a video that isn’t so “serious”.

XV feat. GLC, Emilio Rojas & Casey Veggies – Blame Yourself
XV featuring Emilio Rojas, Casey Veggies and GLC on the chorus? Oh, why the hell not! This is a beautiful song about female ambition, dirty deeds, shady intentions, and pure failure. And, as usual, it ends bad for the person with the worst karma to offer. I wish people would take heed to songs like this. Alas, they rarely do. Bump this in your ride or on your Ipod anyway!

BET CYPHERS!!!!
Here are some of the BET Cyphers gearing up for this weekend’s festivities (or whatever) that are taking place for the BET Hip Hop Awards. What I found interesting is that Mike Epps joined in the end of the second cypher and did pretty solid. Whatever the case may be, people need to know some of these artists. These artists are making noise. Might as well watch them in a cypher, right?
