I discovered this musical gem a while back when I wasn't blogging and promised myself I would post it as soon as I started back... Aww such a beautiful ode to the oldest form of birth control, pulling out. Ancient Greeks called it Exodus Vaginamous, okay not really, I just had to channel my inner Ron Burgundy for that one. Moving on, lets revisit some notable lyrics... "Naw it ain't over/ we

I've never been a fan of making a separate post for every single song that I come across on the internet. I feel like a lot of bloggers do that just to add to their post count. If I come across a couple songs, I prefer to post them all together. If it's a big single, then I'll make an exception... Cee-Lo - You Promised Me Love This guy is hilarious to me....this is typical Cee-Lo, which means I

Okay, the post title is a little misleading since there aren't any "new" songs on this EP. But just in case you haven’t been keeping up, Drake’s pretty much released an EP worth of songs over the past 2-3 months. Some of you might've missed the opportunity to download a song or two. If you’re like me you were too busy this summer soaking up sunlight in an effort to prevent vitamin D deficiency

I'm not big on posting live performances (this happens to be the 1st), but Black Thought spit a verse on both songs and I thought the collaboration was pretty dope. You can catch "Grindin" after the jump. Enjoy."Grindin"

Quick question...when did everybody become Bloods?Did they just have like a huge write-in ceremony for rappers? If I was a "real" Blood I would be beyond pissed. I mean this shit has become a fad...kind of like towel coats, Pokemon and skinny jeans. I swear these rappers remind me of the lames that used to claim gangs back in college.

If you do, I'm sure you remember Dylan Dilinjah, the reggae rappin', pro-active deprived, self-proclaimed spitta of hot fire.

Supposedly, Wale, Drake and KiD CuDi are responsible for killing gangsta rap and as a result, they've been named "the Gangsta Killers". Well, I'm going to have to disagree....for 2 reasons:1.) Gangsta rap isn't dead. Maybe in the sense of N.W.A. "F**k The Police" it's dead, but it's still around. It's just not getting as much
