Straight Outta Compton

without comments

the-gameThe Game is straight outta Compton for all you that do not know. He, along with myself are huge fans of N.W.A. If you don’t already know, Game practically idolizes the group, especially Eric Wright-Eazy-E. One of N.W.A.’s more notorious tracks was “Straight Outta Compton” featured on their 1989 album. Last year, Game decided that he wanted to continue the song, but by adding his own verse of coursem, in a very similar style. I found it pretty live. I decided that I’m going to post the old one just for those of you that don’t have it.

Brand New: Maino Featuring T-Pain

without comments

mainoRapper Maino, he’s new to me. He’s worked with Lil Kim before, and has a few mixtapes out. I hadn’t heard of him until I heard this song. It’s pretty sick, I gotta say. I like T-Pain on song’s like these, not as much on the dance songs. So definitely check this one out, I put it on my iPod.

New N.A.S.A. + Jay-Z

without comments

nasaN.A.S.A. is a duo of DJs, or compilers, who bring together artists to make some great tracks. Their genre is hard to describe, it’s like a combination of electronic and hip-hop.So N.A.S.A. continues to deliver with some of the biggest artists of today, and a decade ago. Here’s a new track which features Method Man, as well as E-40 and DJ Swamp. Method Man’s gotta be one of my favourite’s out of Wu-Tang, with his hits All I Need, Say, and his stuff with Redman, and his verse is definitely sick. It’s got a bouncy beat, and it’s pretty sick, so check it out.

Also, Jay-Z’s got a new track titled When the Money Goes, some places call it, simply, Money Goes. It’s alright, but it’s new, so I posted it.
If you like the N.A.S.A. track, just leave a comment or something, and I can post some other songs they have later on.

Kanye Mayhem!

without comments

kanye-west-3I got some juicy stuff for all the Yeezy lovers out there. There are, get ready for this, two unreleased tracks, back from when Mr. West used to.. well, rap, then another freestyle I found, and lastly a Teriyaki Boyz song which he’s featured on, and produced.

First two simply are old, unreleased tracks I dug up. Neither are bad, so check them out. The freestyle is also pretty good, it kinda covers that song, “my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard..” which works, I guess.
Fourth song, with the Teriyaki Boyz. If you don’t know them, they did some tracks for Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift. The DJ of the group is Nigo, creator of clothing brand A Bathing Ape, more commonly known as Bape. Check this one out, beat’s not bad.

Weezy

without comments

lil-wayne-7Once again, I have posted songs from a mixtape. The next two tracks are not recent, neither that popular. I’m more or less posting these to give recognition to Jay Rock and Nas. Wayne and Jay have done more than one track in the past, but I think this is one of their best. Both songs have catchy uplifting beats, with some nice ryhmes here and there. Hope you enjoy.

Lil Wayne Ft. Nas – Ghetto Rich
