This is one of Timbo's new artist's, the song is pretty cool. However, history has proven Timbo's artists only do well when they're female.
Aliyah -> Win
Missy -> Win
Bubba Sparxxx -> Fail
Magoo -> HELLA FAIL
Henry wanted to contribute:
Petey Pablo -> FAIL
D.O.E. -> FAIL
Justin -> WIN!
lol. I'm gonna get him a pw to this blog, he's ALways got interesting shit to say.
lol, I'm not saying Bubba wasn't dope, because he was/is, but for some reason, unless you're female you won't do well on Timbo's label. Just stating facts.
Anyway, Download/listen here

Izza Kizza ft. Missy Elliott - Walk the Dawg
Lil Wil - My Dougie
This is some sort of a homemade music video that they made for this song. Unfortunately the remix with Soulja Boy will soon be released with a video too. Soulja Boy came under fire earlier this year when he bit lil wil's My Dougie and tried to label it his new "swag dance"... glad to see all is right in the world of snap dance disco bullshit!
I don't really like the song, it's ok for this type of stuff. But the main reason I posted this is because the real Dougie (Doug E. Fresh for all you non learnin mothafuckas out there.) Showed up for this video. Peep the dude in the blue vest. I mean, if I was Doug E, I'd be flattered, but I'm not sure unless they came proper with a nice check, I'd get my ass outta bed for this video.

Introducing DRANK:
A new purple Anti-Energy Drink, for when you need to slow your roll. Now I'm kind of a bitter old man these days, so maybe I just want everybody off Hip-Hop's lawn so to speak and stop raping the culture to make a few bucks. However, MAYBE this will help turn around the resurgence of the syrup movement that's been happening lately because all the little kids no longer have to sip that lean. Probably too late for Weezy though. This is based in Houston and going worldwide in September apparently. Whatchu think?

Bitches & Hoes: Exploring Misogyny in Hip-Hop
Newsweek wrote an article about rappers calling bitches bitches. Kind of interesting, but nothing groundbreaking. Check it out.

G-Unit - Good To Me
This is only worth listening to because Curtis says something like "You're like the boogie man, you hauntin me bitch!" and stuff like "Why don't you do something constructive, kill yourself!"

Dead Prez Riot at Evergreen. What REALLY happened?
Apparently some students needed to pass a class or something and decided to make a documentary video of what happened. Pretty well done.
Cliff Notes Version: They arrest the wrong guy, Students gets mad, Campus police call for backup from Olympia Po Po, They come in pepper spray and fists blazin, everybody gets O U MAD at that, They start an "Uprising", They GTFO the place and the kids flip over the car while screaming "Wu Tang Clan Ain't Nuttin to Fuck With!", Riot police show up a few hours later, Police reports seem to leave out a few details. Everybody is still O U MAD. Hooray for Hip-Hop.

KANYE. LUPE. N*E*R*D. CRS. STADIUM STATUS? I'm GOOOOOOOOD!!!
4/16/08. FEELIN GOOD. FEELIN GREAT.
Drop Bomb is going to be IN THE BUILDING.. April 16th is the set date to kick off Kanye West's Glow in the Dark tour! Seattle is actually the very first night for the tour, so I definitely expect some fireworks. They have to start the tour off with a good review, so we're guessing the chances of some Extra guest performances and stuff is going to be pretty high. Maybe Common? Consequence? T-Pain? The Clipse?Who knows maybe Common will come? Mos Def? I mean there are HUGE chances of this happening in my humble opinion. Think about it..even though Kanye most likely won't perform many songs from The College Dropout..he MIGHT. Which means, he may perform Two Words. Which features Mos Def. Now N.E.R.D. ALSO has a song with Mos Def and Common, which would be the "She Wants To Move Remix," and since Common and Ye have songs together as well.....Put 2 and 2 together suckas!!!
So Lupe is going to be there as well..and Rihanna. I think I'll have probably three seperate memory sticks for my camera, also a few SD cards for the camcorder..I might get a better camera too. It's pretty dope because the concert is a week after my birthday. So I will be SOOOO FLLYYYY. We gotta get FREESSSHHH..oh man. It's gonna be crazy.
OF COURSE they're going to leak some new CRS songs..at least a snippet of one. THEY GOTTA!!!!
So enough of the banter; We'll be doing a review of the concert for all you beautiful people out there. I'm gonna post videos and stuff too. Welcome to the Good Life.
If you're in the Seattle area we will see you all there!!!
CHYEA!

A Fresh BreakDown - Pastor Troy : Attitude Adjuster
Did yall know this guy was makin' albums still, bet ya didn't. Well, the industry hasn't been to forgivin' for the ol' P.T. since the album "By Any Means Necessary" didn't break through like Universal thought. That was his last "well-known" industry pushed album. Since then he's been pumpin' out albums every now n again under various independent labels. And ever since that classic "Face Off", he kinda lost that deep-side to his music that everyone loved so much, only little flashes of it. But P.T. says he's not out of it yet.

Boo F**kin' Hoo: Pats Fans Cry Foul....
Now, I've been a Raider fan for a good minute. So, you people who watch football know, that I may despise the Patriots more than anything, mainly because they cheat. But as a Raider fan, I'm not alone, I've observed the Pats blatantly cheat ALOT. Now they've been gettin' away with this for years, and most Pats fans would argue you down that those were the right calls. But now since we've seen the cocky sore losers choke in the biggest game of their franchise... Some Pats fans have found them abit of nerve. These sore losers claim they were CHEATED!! PATRIOT FANS SAY THEY WERE CHEATED! ARE YOU FUCKIN' KIDDIN' ME?! LET ME REPEAT THAT AGAIN! THE PATRIOT FANS CLAIM THEY WERE CHEATED!.... Well, anyway, these sore losers have even gone so far to sign a petition and send it to Roger Goodell's office. I mean, it's bad enough he didn't take your 7th round pick for spy-gate, or made you forefeit the game.. You--- I swear the nerve of some people.
