Hip Hop is Dead

Alright, so here is the problem that I've come up with...

I've been wanting to review a good mixtape and all... but everything I've heard all sounds the same. You know, everybody tryin to be like Lil' Wayne and all that... I'm sick of that fake stuff... give me some real hip hop, for real...

Anybody got any suggestions?

Fried Chicken

Just chillin... gettin some inspiration off of the fried chicken I just had... haha, on some real shit too, that was good.

Block Em

Yo... just found out that I get to do a little somethin with a dead nice up and coming artist...

(hint) he was on the cover of XXL in December... haha, I love overthinking...

Wish I had more time to talk but its late and I got stuff to do in the morning...

Turn My Swag On

What up wit it... I'm just bloggin to avoid doin actual work, haha...

Gotta do a track to that beat or somethin^^^

Been thinkin a lot about expanding... ya know? gettin bigger, goin all global and stuff with a dot com name and stuff... gonna wait til I got some more time on my hands though, probably once I get into April... then I can really focus on this stuff, ya dig? So hop on the bandwagon now while you still got the chance.

I'm watchin my boy on the tv right now haha, what up kid... and I'm givin minimal information on purpose... Funny type shit though...

Pause.

Anyway, as I've established, this entry has no point. But random thought; Soulja Boy has been starting to grow on me. Like, I'm starting to kinda like some of his shit...

And if I said that like 2 months ago, I woulda stabbed myself in the jaw, for the real. I used to hateeee Soulja Boy. And on the real, his lyrics suck, as does his entire first album. I dunno, some beats ain't bad though. 

Alright, lemme scratch that, I don't like Soulja Boy and I still don't respect him as an artist... he's gettin better though. I won't hate as much...

Alright, got work to do. Wanna do a review or somethin tomorrow. Stay tuned.

Run It

DJ Clue talkin to Chris Brown about some things, including his relationship with Rihanna. Check out the end of the video haha, Chris talkin about the fight a little bit...

So that clears up those rumors about them two getting married, eh? Haha, not sure about Rihanna gettin pregnant though, ya never really know... 

And straight up, lay off Chris about bein soft, aight? I got that man's back, get at me Chris...

No Air

Alright, so I got a lot of heat for some of my older messages talkin about how I was sticking up for Chris Brown on his whole scandal with Rihanna. After reading this, I dunno how I really feel, kind of confused. Chris says he was feeling really pressured and stuff and no doubt he snapped. But I dunno, take a look for yourself, here's the official Search Warrant and Affidavit for the trial:

Official Chris Brown/Rihanna Search Warrant and Affidavit

Damn, I really gotta rethink a whole bunch of things now. Chris went straight up crazy lol... Still though, I got his back, he's probably havin a real rough time right now...

And poor Rihanna too, new rumors says she is pregnant. Ha.

Young Money Millionaire 5 (Review)

Okay, so personally I'm not a Lil' Wayne fan. There you go America, I said it. And I don't really care what ya'll think. But out of respect, and because literally everybody I know is a big Wayne fan. Just don't get used to me posting reviews and rants for him, cuz it just ain't happening. So with that being said, I decided I'd make a few people happy and review his new mixtape anyway...

So I gotta be a little honest, Lil' Wayne started this on a bad note just because I don't like the dude. And with this mixtape, I was pretty much expecting just typical little Wayne; unoriginal beats, and uncreative lines. And what do ya know, I was pretty right. Except this time he decided to throw a few pieces of shit in the mix too (see "Prom Queen"). So the mixtape has 37 songs on it, which in my opinion is at least 17 songs too many. Especially since half the songs are only around a minute long. Overall, it's just boring and stuff that I just don't want to listen to. Some songs are even painful at times. 

First of all, I want to state that any song on this mixtape where Wayne tries sounding like he is a rock singer, completely sucks. Don't even waste your time listening to them, just take my word for it. And second of all, am I the only person who thinks Lil' Wayne sounds completely annoying most of the time?

If it weren't for some decent guest appearances and one or two catchy beats then I would probably go through this album once and toss it out. 

Okay, so I really like "Every Girl", it is by far the best song on the mixtape, even though Wayne's verse is probably the weakest haha. No lie, I've been playing that one over a few times in the car. So there's some sunshine for ya... On the flip side, Wayne, what the fuck are you tryin to do with that rock shit? Cut it out man. Please... 

Lil' Wayne's "Young Money Millionaire 5" gets a pretty bad score. Not because I hate Lil' Wayne, but because he threw over 30 songs of complete shit on this mixtape and expects people to listen to the same old beats with the same old stupid lines. Not happenin.

Oh, and as a side note, Lil' Wayne talks about shit and toilets wayyy too much. Just saying. Haha.

Recommendation:

Skip it. Don't waste your time downloading it or waste any of your money buying it. Just download "Every Girl" if you want a pretty good song, and "Prom Queen" if you wanna torture your eardrums.

Top Tracks:

6. Turn My Swag On (Why is that beat catchy? lol)

7. Every Girl [ft. Young Money]

8. Yes [ft. Pharrell]

11. Blow My Mind

No disrespect to Wayne fans, just not my thing.

Review: 

So this is the latest mixtape by Harlem rapper Charles Hamilton (even though he'll probably drop a new one by the time this post is over). So first off, mad props to the dude for droppin so much music so quickly and for free online. Personally I'm a huge fan of his work and can really relate to him as an artist. This mixtape however does seem to lack some of the qualities that I enjoyed in his previous mixtapes. Charles is the kind of guy who really isn't afraid to go outside of his boundaries, and is always trying to do something new with his music. Even though a lot of tracks on here are unique, I really cannot say that I dig them all. The production is pretty chilled out throughout the whole album, but most of the songs seem "forgettable". I can't really see myself playin this album over and over while I'm cruisin around and stuff like I could with a few of his other mixtapes. I'll probably throw one or two of the tracks on a mixed CD or somethin though, no doubt. Couple of real dope tracks, but a couple of songs that you just skip past. Some of his bars are real dope but the songs are really too close on the borderline of "chilled out" and "boring"to get a really high score. Favorite song has to be "Every Now and Then", while "Something" is the least favorite.

Recommendation: 

Download it. It's free haha.

Top Tracks:

1. Pleasant Overthinking

5. Cali Oriental

8. truth kills opposition (Love TKO)

9. Every Now and Then

Dig It.

Change Gon' Come

yo... been away for a couple minutes. Not my fault though, been havin a couple of technical issues or whatever you wanna call it. Truth be told though, I got pissed off and punch my computer screen so it broke. So I had to go buy a new one... This one is smaller, but it's all good. Still hopin to get one of them new macs soon...

Anyway, got a lot of bullshit over the Chris and Rihanna business. I don't really feel like explaining myself again but like, just saying that I got Chris' back. I mean, people flip out and tweak and get all fired up sometimes. Can't blame the kid. He probably regrets hitting her, but I'm glad they gettin back together. Newest story I hear is that Rihanna's pregnant now. That'd be dumb nice. Think about how talented the kid will be at least. Chris gonna be mad pissed if it's true though...


anyway, I meant to start doing this a long time ago but I haven't really gotten around to it. The real reason I started all this is to kind of focus on a music standpoint since that's really my main objective right now. I don't wanna give out too much info on the personal life, but I found some new stuff that I think sounds dope. So if anybody is reading, then enjoy, and gimme a holla too...

Aight, next post is all about the music. Dig it.

Bad Girl

Ayo, what's been goin on?

I been away for a while, not really my fault though, things with the computer been buggin and all that...

Anyway, got a little input on the Chris Brown and Rihanna deal. For real, I'm kinda stickin to Chris' side right now. They are people too, and people get in arguments. Story is that Timbaland was sayin some shit to Rihanna at a party about havin sex and all that good stuff and Chris got pissed about it. Then Rihanna started bitchin at Chris for havin some girl's number in his cell. I mean, for real? Rihanna was bein a bitch, and Chris deserved to get all pissed off at her. Lay off the kid, he got upset, and felt hurt, I woulda acted in a similar matter...

Now, don't get me wrong, I don't think any dude should be beatin on his girl or anything, but you really can't blame Chris for gettin mad. Everybody gets angry, and its hard to control anger sometimes... I feel you Chris, I got your back man...

Anyway, other than that, not much been goin on... lots of work, and a show tonight... I'll holla. Peace.

My President Is Black

Ayo straight up, I'm lovin this presidential business that been goin on... gotta love where things gonna be...

And on the rebound, rest in peace grandma, hope the other side is good for you...
Ain't nobody gonna be singin on my birthday anymore.

[Insert prayers here]

Obviously some real emotional shit been goin down, more than I even know. But I'm just makin it through the days, until the days become months, and the months become years. And maybe one minute will come where I stop feelin like a robot and more like a human. The only person who gives me life is the same one who took my soul in the first place, ya dig? And I'm on some crazy shit that isn't even invented...

Only chemicals I ever ride on are the ones thats in my brain. Yeah it's all natural, but still fucks you up the same. On some depression shit, all I got is bad trips. Not drugs, but inside, my mind is playin tricks. Not rhymin on purpose neither...

And outta left field, my favorite planet is Neptune. All blue and shit. Out.

Sorry for the delays, won't be that long again.
