11/22/09 Sunday In Review

Hope all my readers had a good weekend! I know I did! But enough of my personal life, you're all here for blogness and shit. This week I don't think any good albums came out, therefor I don't have any albums to review. But! I have a back up plan, you just wait til the end you'll see! On to the singles, go in!

Hot Singles:
Gonna jump it off with a song I know most of you have heard. If not, most of you SHOULD have heard it. And once I'm done talking about it, you WILL get a chance to hear it. The song is called "Flex - Party Boyz" and its another OHW club banger! They should make these their own genre. And like any OHW club banger, theres a dance to it, but that you'll have to look up on your own time, lo siento. Anyways, here it is:


Next song is another song by my man Travis Porter. This one is right off his & Waka Flocka's mixtape "Streets R Us" (I might need to download that?). Its Called "Hell You Talmbout" and has the energy from Waka's music and the addictiveness of Travis'. We're giving Travis Porter a pass, he's got 3 or 4 hot songs on the net buzzing so he's passed OHWism. (Remember Stands for One Hit Wonder). FLOCKA!:


This song I pulled from the Album of The Week last year. Wale! Now personally any track with Skate Boy P on it I've come to like. This ones no different. Wale & Pharrell make a really good team music-wise. The track is called "Inhibitions" and is straight off of "Attention Deficit". Possibly the next radio single? Who knows! Either way here it is:


So this song might be Jay-Z's latest audio appearance since BluePrint 3. He's accompanies Robin Thicke on the song named "Meiple (Me I Play)" and in the name of Robin Thicke, it goes hard. Its an upbeat, play before you play in the bedroom, type song (LOL). DEF a banger in my opinion. And its my blog so its always my opinion! Ha! Here it goes:


This week's throwback song/video is awarded my man Bussa-Buss! I know everybody remembers this song, what grade were you in when it came out (LOL) "Break Ya Neck - Busta Rhymes" Lets Go:


Album/Mixtape Reviews:
Big shout outs to my Mixtape Stars for the week @liltwist & @TYGA. This weeks review has been taken over by Young Money. Mixtapes provided by www.livemixtapes.com.

Mixtape Review:
Lil Twist - Class President

Wow! After weeks of Tweet after Tweet about this being a hot mixtape. Homie lived up to his tweets! This mixtape goes hard as ever! He DEF has the Young Money blood in him to drop hot shit and make it in the game. I see big things poppin' in Lil Twists' future. If you haven't got this mixtape via Twitter (He Tweets the link every 5 mins) go pick it up from livemixtapes now!
Mixtape Rating (4/5)

Tyga - Black Thoughts

Tyga Tyga! Wow! This is Cali at it's best! (Big Grin) West Coast stand up Tyga is killing it now! He's come a long way from that lime in the coconut bullshit. Young Money's strong on this one as well. And Tyga is a lyrical geneuis. Anybody who thinks the only good rappers on Young Money are Drake & Weezy needs to get their head out their ass! Go cop this mixtape with the quickness!

11/15/09 Sunday In Review

Well first off HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my blog its a week old. [Aww] In my book it had a great first week run so I'm gonna keep going on the schedule that I have the best that I can. So lets go in! And I want to say a point for the name change of the "Singles" section - I realized that in the advanced world songs can be downloaded as soon as their finished in the studio, so to save face I've changed the name from "New Singles" to "Hot Singles". Now this way I have more ways to work with the singles section. Anyways Enjoy Today's Post!

Hot Singles:
I'm sure I like this song for the same reason anybody likes any Gucci Mane song. The beat. I mean I still don't think he's a good rapper [LOL]. His songs are catchy and his beats are hot thats about it. And since I still live in the south and go to a black college, its hard to NOT like Gucci or at least listen to him. The name of the track is "On Deck - Gucci Mane" If you don't like it for the lyrics, listen to the beat, it goes hard. Here it is:


Next song, unless you've been under a rock, you've had to have heard. Even if it was by accident. Its from my man Travis Porter (Twitter: iamtravisporter) and its called "All the way turned up - Travis Porter". In my book its like a version of "Turn My swag on" that I can STAND to listen to. I vote this song to be listened to on the way to the club to get you hyped and ready to get it in once you get in. Lets go!:


Track 3 is dedicated to the ladies. "Say Aah - Trey Songz", you can hate on it if you want to but thats just killing your chances with the females. Any smart nigga knows to like this song, at least when a shawty is around. And c'mon its Trigga you know the song is gonna go hard. "O so Loso" drops a verse on it too to keep the street cred up on the song. Favorite line "He works every time, Patron you my nigga" Ha! Ladies, fellas too [No Homo] here it is [YUHP!]:


Next song is a Clipse track that sounds like its right off of "Hell hath no fury". If you heard that album you know its a GOOD thing. I'm not saying that "I'm good" isn't a good track, its does its numbers and beats heads. But "Popular Demand - Clipse ft. Cam'ron" just sounds like that classic Clipse that we all grew up on. Cam'ron makes a somewhat return on it, if you like his flow, its present on this track. Here it goes:

And I PROMISED if I could find a link to download it, I'd provide it so Early Merry Christmas Here It Is: http://www.limelinx.com/files/d98386b6806d4c2a4866ce7712834500

And to stay on the trend of "Clipse" type things. The throwback track of the week is..........."Mr Me Too - Clipse ft. Pharrell" Anyone who didn't think this song went hard had to be deaf or not a true hip hop fan. Take a quick trip back in time here it is!:


Album/Mixtape Reviews:
First point I would like to make: All my mixtapes are provided by www.livemixtapes.com. Its free to download, just sign-up and start downloading. All my albums are I-Tunes purchased so no need trying to raid my dorm for stolen music! And on that note, go in!

Mixtape Review:
Wiz Khalifa - Burn After Rolling (B.A.R.)

I'm gonna go ahead and say it, Wiz is back! I'm not sure how many Wiz fans there are but this man has a hell of a net buzz for a few years and no album out yet. His mixtapes always go hard. This one for one has creativity out the ass, which you don't see alot of anymore even with the hottest of artists. Theres also punchline after punchline from him. He's gone a far way from "Say Yeah" and its for the better. His album "Deal or No Deal" drops November 24 so DEF go cop that! As for the mixtape, if you have yet to download it, stop what you're doing and go grab it. Taylor Gang!
Mixtape Rating (5/5)

Various Artist - Welcome To Trilladelphia 5

I don't usually review "Various Artist" mixtapes because most of them have a wide range of artists. But since there is a little bit of Philly in this Cali Boy's blood, I couldn't help but pick up this mixtape. If you're into philly rappers than I recommend you should have already downloaded this tape! Its got new tracks from Cassidy, Gillie, Freeway, Meek Millz, and so many more artists that make up Philly's Arsenal. Theres everything you expect in a various artist mixtape, party tracks, gully tracks, gutta tracks, and album exclusives. Big Ups to DJ E-Stacks for keeping this series going.
Mixtape Rating (4/5)

Gorilla Zoe - Monkey Business 2

This tape is classic Zoe. All the good music you like from Gorilla Zoe is present in his new mixtape hosted by DJ Spinatik & The Wax Wizards. I'm a Zoe fan and I wasn't dissappointed at this at all, only 1 track on there from an old mixtape which to be safe we'll just call it a throwback. Gucci is present as you'd expect. Lots of GO HARD tracks on the mixtape. I recommend it.
Mixtape Rating (4/5)

Album Review:
Wale - Attention Deficit

Well, I'm sure this review has been long awaited. Hell, this album was long awaited. After many mixtape releases and a sudden main stream hype via MTV VMAs and BET Hip Hop Awards, Wale is finally getting the long time coming attention that he needs! And what better way to take advantage of that than drop an album with all the Wale that his veteran fans love. Theres a bit of Go-Go Wale on the album, theres freestyle Wale, mixtape Wale, and even Slow track Wale. Not to be greedy but it would have been nice to see more tracks on the album than the ones that made it, but I was glad to see that there were no tracks off his mixtape carelessly thrown on the album. Altogether its a well crafted album with good featurettes and even better production. After my first listen I was going to give this album a 4/5 but I listened to it again, and actually LISTENED to it. So now I've given it the rating an album like this deserves.
Album Rating (5/5)

Artist To Watch:
I'm going to give this one to my man Travis Porter. His new mixtape with Waka Flocka "Streets R Us - DJ Teknikz" is getting a pretty good buzz. Travis' twitter is almost at 11k followers. So fill up the rest and hit him up @iamtravisporter.

Outro:
Personally I think this weeks Sunday In Review went hard. You be the judge! Comment on the post after reading and listening to todays post. I'm leaving all my wonderful fans with a hilarious vid, pretty sure this vid will make anyones day:

11/11/09 *HAPPY VETERANS DAY* Men's Talk

Well first I want to give a big shout out to the veterans no matter which war they fought in. But it's Wednesday and its time to introduce another blog tradition: "Mens Talk". This is probably going to be the most interactive part of my blog. The rules are simple, I post a question for the fellas and then I post a question for the ladies, THEN you can respond via: a comment, an e-mail, facebook post, or even a tweet. For the ones that are sent to me personally, I'll post on the blog later with the persons name or user name. But as my blog progresses I see this being a way to interact with my audience. In the future I'll take questions on Tuesdays to post on Wednesday. Without further hesitation lets get into the question at hand:

FELLAS -
Would you rather MARRY a girl, and give up a few values for more looks or give up a few looks for more values? And just for entertainment, give us an explanation.

LADIES -
Would you rather MARRY a man, and give up a few values for more looks or give up a few looks for more values? And explain.

If you're not getting the question I'll elaborate a little: Give up a few values means would you rather have a girl who is a 5 star bitch, fills out all her outfits, but acts as bad as she looks. The type where you might have to get married in Vegas cause you know you can't bring her around your mom. [LOL]. And Give up a few looks just means shes pretty or average, nice body, nothing to sweat over but at the same time shes nice, she cooks, she cleans, your mom LOVES her. Hope that helped a little. Send in your responses folks!

FACEBOOK, TWITTER, etc RESPONSES:

DA_FLyest101 Via Twitter: "ok i would rather marry n him nt n as cute n have all the values bc look are superficail n its nt enough to love someone"




And just because I left you without music on the other post:
