Amazing. Can't wait for Cudder/the rest of 'How to Make it in America'.

Kidz In The Hall feat. The Kid Daytona - Out To Lunch
An excellent marriage of beats and rhymes if I do say so myself.
Daytona murders this by the way.
Little Brother - Curtain Call (produced by Khrysis)
LeftBack is Little Brother's last album and it drops on April 20th.
Jay Smooth - Lyricism and Capitalism
Jay Smooth - aka the best vlogger alive - addresses the misconception that "lyrical rappers" (unfortunately that term is not an oxymoron) make less dough than the Soulja Boys of the world.
It's a great post, but his "best selling rap albums" list is wrong for a couple of reasons. Try and figure it out.
Lil Wayne speaks on the topic of his dental surgery...sort of
Lil Wayne speaks on his dental surgery, the return of his grill, and his lack of...uh...pussy.
Video: The Making of the “Drop The World” Beat
Chase N. Cash and Hit-Boy show us how they made the beat for the best track off of Wayne's Rebirth.
"FruityLoops for life!" - Hit-Boy
Explicit Content Only - Straight Outta Compton (only the curses!)
Have you ever wanted a copy of Straight Outta Compton that only featured the dirty words? I can't say that I have, but I've got at least two minutes of laughs out of this cleverly put together remix album.
It sounds like Ice Cube has Tourette's Syndrome!
Worth checking out if you're extremely juvenile, procrastinating or just plain bored.
Lloyd Banks featuring Juelz Santana - Beamer, Benz, Or Bentley (CDQ)
Beamer, Benz, or Bentley? More like streetcar, bus, or subway. That's right ladies, I got a Metropass. Holla!
I'm late on this. I'm sorry.
Sometimes you really need a good ol' dose of that futuristic sounding-fresh ride pushing-New York fuckery that only a G-Unit/Dipset collabo can provide.
Better late than never.
Meth Ghost Rae - Avenging Eagles (Mixtape)
Wu-Massacre drops on March 30th.
Anticipation for Wu-Massacre > Drake, Cudi, Eminem, Carter IV - X.
Don't push me, cause I'm close to the edge...
Lupe Fiasco - What U Want
A few things about this tune:
- This is an unfinished version (sounds finished to me though)
- It is on Lasers
- It's worth a listen or two
Cookin’ Soul - Big Pun and J Dilla - Big Dilla (Mixtape)
Dilla.
Pun.
Cookin' Soul.
This can't possibly be a bad thing.
Thanks to Cookin' Soul for the link.
Cookin’ Soul - Big Pun and J Dilla - Big Dilla (Mixtape) (please ignore the ridiculous audio ad that this file sharing site makes you suffer through)
Damian Marley and Nasir Jones - Strong Will Continue + As We Enter
I like it!
Distant Relatives drops on 4/20, which I assume both Nas and Damian Marley will be actively participating in.
Chip Tha Ripper - Here I Am + Jon Hope feat. Mike Maven - Average Joe (produced 6th Sense)
Both these songs are fantastic. Check back soon for the entire mixtape.
Consequence featuring Asher Roth - Childish Games
I haven't heard from Asher in a minute, but thankfully he and Cons took some time to tear up this very mellow beat produced by Mr. Attic.
Wu-Tang Wednesday
The Wu-Tang Clan are like those little Russian Matryoshka dolls that decrease in size but gain in numbers as you disassemble them. In the case of these two songs we have little rap-supergroup dolls inside of...enough about dolls.
Who really wants to talk about little babushkas all day long anyways?
Oh yeah, basketball!
Group 1.
Ghost, Rae and Meth = the 1996-1998 3-Peat Chicago Bulls. Meth is Jordan, Rae is Pippen and Ghost is Rodman cause he's bat-shit insane.
Check out the song.
Group 2.
GZA, Masta Killa & Inspectah Deck = the 2003 - 2007 San Antonio Spurs. These guys are all team players who believe in fundamentals (beats, rhymes, life). They're all Tim Duncan.
This song is off of Mathematics' Return of the Wu & Friends which drops on February 16th. Props to Matt for the song.
Here's a taste:
The RZA is definitely more of a Phil Jackson kind of coach than a Gregg Poppovich, and on a completely tasteless note, ODB = Len Bias. Sorry.
Wild Tour Stories: Meth, Red and Ghost
I would pay an exorbitant fee for a series of podcasts featuring real-life stories told by Red and Meth.
Jay Smooth on the Disaster in Haiti
The best vlogger alive tells you why you should help out in Haiti (if you didn't already know).
On another more skeptical (perhaps cynical) note, I spotted this over at Eskay's place, and I'm having a little bit of trouble posting it.
Is it wrong to call into question the actions of an organization that is probably doing more good than harm? I don't know. Check out the documents yourself and then decide about Wyclef's charity.
To be fair to the dude, he's been doing his thing in a real 'boots on the ground' kind of way. The man's a damn hero for being there like that, but it's always good to know about where your money is going.
Check out the news clip below about 'Clef's efforts in his homeland.

EDIT:
Check out Wyclef's response to the Smoking Gun's allegations.
