Its sad to know that one of the greatest MC’s to ever write 16 bars will leave the rap game. Actually I read he’s fed up with fans not apprecitating good music, I feel Scarface all the way. He also stated “Im not retiring, I quit”. Damn.

Just as I’m rolling over to go to bed, something told me to check out the homie YK2 Daily’s spot.  Low and behold, we have a new joint off John Legend’s album, Evolver, which is set to drop October 24. This song is called “No Other Love” and features Estelle.  I gotta tell you based on this song and “Morning”, which was posted earlier, this is shaping up to be a pretty good album.  In fact, a great looking album.  Make sure you support ya boy.

This was originally supposed to be Keri Hilson’s first single.  It has now been chosen as the second single off Keri’s upcoming album, In A Perfect World, which is set to drop November 4.  This track is extremely hot.  Worth the download.  The beat is pretty crazy, what else can you expect from Timbo?

” No One On The Corner Got Swagger Like Twista”…except me.  Haha.  I keed I keed.

Anyway, Twista hops on the now infamous Swagger Like Us.  In related news, there are rumors of a Swagger Like Us Part 2 which features verses from Young Jeezy, Andre 3000, and Nas.  I just hope they change the beat and BAN the use of autotune.

Ricky Ross the Boss C.O. hops on the modified beat that Siwzz Beatz made.  It’s basically a hip hop version of Coldplay’s “Viva La Vida”.  It’s pretty hard not to sound good on this beat.  It’s insane.

Being versatile as a artsit makes you stand out from the others. David Banner has been hittin us with verstiliy since he came out. I am a fan of Banner’s music and I also respect him for the things he does outside of music. He is one of the few artists who uses his fame to help others. This track from him is nuthin but real talk on it, check it out.
