THROWBACK THURZDAYS | DMX - GET AT ME DOG

Posted by mr. la at 7:28 PM 0 comments


Almost forgot...but without further adieu, here is the Throwback pick courtesy of Thurzday.  This is before Earl started going on a fail/losing spree in life.  This was one of the dudes to make that raw music acceptable in the mainstream considering Bad Boy was making huge imprints on hip hop...I mean Ma$e was another new artist at the time and he was THE MAN, like it or not.  Shoutouts to Thurzday & YO as they will hit the road with Warren G for a tour throughout the US.  Proud of my fam UNI, keep it up ya'll.





50 CENT - BBC INTERVIEW & PSYCHO f. EMINEM (NEW MUSIC)

Posted by mr. la at 5:56 PM 0 comments


Some tracks from 50's forthcoming album Before I Self Destruct album hit the nets and both of them are really good.  Actually the whole album (supposedly) leaked but I'm keeping that one to myself, sorry.  I decided to put up the one with Eminem because them going back and forth made my day (yesterday and today).  Also go here and see his interview with BBC about the new book.

GUCCI MANE - WASTED (RMX) f. LIL WAYNE, JADAKISS & BIRDMAN (NEW MUSIC DOWNLOAD)

Posted by mr. la at 5:08 PM 0 comments


Since the new thing in Los Angeles seems to be jumping on this dudes bandwagon I figured some of ya'll would approve of this post.  This is actually one of the few tracks by Gucci that I enjoy and Jadakiss absolutely killed this remix...Wayne did well but I know you've heard the verse on his mixtape track Wasted off of his upcoming mixtape (or is it out) No Ceilings.  Party Party Party to this version now...

GAME f. GUCCI MANE & TIMBALAND - KRAZY (NEW MUSIC DOWNLOAD)

Posted by mr. la at 4:44 PM 0 comments


Game drops his new single for his forthcoming album R.E.D. with everyone's new favorite rapper Gucci Mane (smh) as well as Timbaland.  Interesting collabo that could very well pay off as far as the appeal to the mainstream market, but with enough grit to still attract the core fans of Game & Gucci.  But for now, I'm bumping this 50 Cent Before I Self Destruct LB right now.  Ya'll can enjoy this.

Posted by mr. la at 4:30 PM 0 comments


As you know NahRight & OnSmash had a showcase for the CMJ event and OnSmash has plenty of video for you to see...but since I've been really digging some of the stuff Curren$y has dropped lately I decided to post his video...there were no LA artists on the bill...Wiz Khalifa even appeared to perform one of the tracks I dig off of their How Fly project.  Enjoy.

KRINK - MINI COOPER S

Posted by mr. la at 2:47 PM 0 comments








You've seen me post KRINK touched shoes and things but this is a good look for the artist...as you can see he's added his touch to a Mini Cooper S.  I think it's dope and innovative that this car company in particular would do this.  This is something I'd expect Scion to do but nonetheless I think this is dope.  They are having shows for it but unless you're in Europe it won't matter to you.

BET HIP HOP AWARD CYPHERS

Posted by mr. la at 1:59 PM 0 comments






If you didn't know I'll tell you or remind you in case you forgot...the person who puts these cyphers that you all talk about after the awards is a friend of mine from LA.  She works hard every year to balance the coonery on the stage and in the audience by placing a variety of rappers that still can represent the art of hip hop.  She did a dope job this year as they were able to pull off Eminem (nuff said) and more.  She fights hard to get Cali representation but the powers that be think we have nothing popping over here.  Luckily we were able to get Nipsey to represent...and did he.  Anyways here are all 3 of the cyphers featuring the likes of KRS One, Nicki Minaj, Black Thought, Mos Def, Joe Budden, Wale, Buckshot and more.  Enjoy...we're working on an LA takeover for next year.

DJ SMALLZ x BELLY - BACK FOR THE FIRST TIME (FREE MUSIC DOWNLOAD)

Posted by mr. la at 12:42 PM 1 comments





I'm dropping this since I've dropped his video with Snoop Dogg as well as the Behind the Scenes.  He hails from Toronto but since he has features from folks we support at Eazee Street, namely Snoop & Drake I figured we could offer some shine to an artist not of the Los Angeles scene.  Check it out if you like.  As a bonus I'm dropping the single with Snoop with no DJ.
