Jay-Z recently signed this kid to his RocNation label.

I'm sort of lost for words. His name is J.Cole and he definitely has some spit to him. I'm not going crazy or nothing but, well now I don't really know. I feel like I should post this though.

*Terrible title definitely. Oh, you know what it is also? J.Cole is not a good name for a rapper.

**Just heard a bunch of songs on his myspace here. Very interesting.

I LIKE HIM ACTUALLY. IF YOU ENJOY GOOD HIP-HOP MUSIC LISTEN TO J.COLE

It's interesting to see them all like this, especially Weezy.

Great Article about 50 Cent.

Combat Jack kills it right here.

Cudi doing what I do although not as good as I would do it.

My bad. It's true.. I know Sally I'm such a hater right? Nah.. I'm keeping it real. This is my website you're on. Ha! In all honesty, I'm starting to like Cudi and I understand he very well could be the next big star out here. Plus, I think he is being genuine to himself and that I respect. I think he's gonna get better quickly which I'm excited about.

great pictures off the video set for "T.Shirt's Real Hip-Hop"



Ryan Brooks is a great photographer coming out of Brooklyn, New York. He is currently documenting graffiti culture worldwide. Check more of Ryan's work out here.

Ricky Ross is one of my favorite rappers hands down.

Nas does alright on this. Great writing but I don't think he wrote it to this piece of music produced by The Inkredibles. Maybe, but it doesn't work well. Ricky Ross though..

"I listen to a couple new rappers every week.. "

Checking out Curren$y. I hear a lot about this kid everywhere but he hasn't impressed me too much just yet. It seems though that he could get better quickly. I'd love to do a joint with him. I'd need to mix it though. Whoever is mixing his shit is not doing his voice any justice. Somebody holla @ me.

Pharrell rocking out on Jimmy Fallon


N.E.R.D. doing their new joint Soldier featuring SantiGold & Weezy who were unfortunately not in attendance. Great shirt boyy damn. Songs a little much though. Let's wait for the mp3, cool?

This is a Deviant Arthouse thing. No link. It don't even exist anywhere. There's pieces all over the world, on famous people, regular folks, ugly dudes, hot chiks. But it's not available anywhere, there was never an official launch and you can't buy it. Ha ! Created just for me, the "sweat shirt" sweatshirt retails for about $700. Eat that in bad Miami pizza bitches.

I love this beat so much..


These rappers don't do it justice I'm sorry. With the exception of Joell Ortiz they don't know what the fuck to do with something so laid back, so summer. Even Ortiz is fair on it. Somebody get it for the kid. This video is Directed by John Columbo btw Dred.

Where The Wild Things Are


I know I'm late with this.. my bad. It looks great. Directed by Spike Jonze.

I like these I think. I'm not shore though. I'd have to have them on to really tell. Footwear brand Gourmet love to experiment.

This sounds pretty crazy actually. Snoop still got it.

In his words..
“Snoop Dogg Millionaire” was produced by Wild Animals and Chase & Status; it also features the Hustle Boyz on the chorus. Los Angeles’ Wild Animals (John Legend, Kurupt, Murs) is one of music’s hottest up and coming production duo. UK’s Chase & Status won the Best Album Award at the 2009 Drum and Bass Awards.”

Ok I wanna say something. There was something I always liked about Joey. That's it I'm done. No I'm kidding. Here's the thing right.. this video directed by Rik off Padded Room had me.. I mean like really had me going for like 2 minutes tops. Then I fell asleep on the keyboard and when I woke up I had the letter marks on my face. Do I understand what I'm trying to say? HE FUCKING RAPS TOO MUCH AND IT JUST GETS SOOOO TIRED UGGHH. Get someone dope to sing something.. not like The Dream or someone, I'm talking about somebody crazy. Go get the bitch from Portishead or something. C'mon Joey.
