We’re Working It Out.

Trust me. Things are rough. But after that J. Cole mention in Complex and then the XXL “Top 100 Blogs in Hip-Hop” stamp, I had to get the blog up somehow.

Yeah, it doesn’t look like it should. It’s messed up. The theme is outdated, as is the banner/logo, and there is no sidebar. Where are the ads? Goodness. But I told you about those iPirates, right? They rocked me like the Aggro Crag in Global Guts. Now if it’s your first time here and you happened to catch that Aggro Crag / Global Guts reference, you’ve just found yourself the site where you’ll be spending a whole lot of your free time.

I promise you that. See you soon. And if you don’t follow the Twitter accounts we run (@DCtoBC and @TheGeePee [stands for The Great Progression. It's something somewhat monumental.]), then I suggest getting on that in the meantime. Thanks in advance, and see you soon.

Lupe Fiasco – Say Something x All The Way Turnt Up [Freestyles / Flows].

Good gracious. Lupe is back. This is like his “I just feel like getting in the studio and flowing” stuff right here, and it’s better than everybody else’s music. That’s precisely why he’s one of the best rappers alive. Easy.

We’ll end the season as the 3rd best team in the East, and then playoff time is where we’ll bring the A-game. He’s back, and he’s not talking to the media or blogging. He’s focused. Anybody with season tickets, feel free to invite me to a game, because I’m all for it.

Gucci Mane Runs The BET Awards! All His Performances!

Performances GALORE from the BET Awards. My girl Aura hooked me up with every Gucci performance from Monday’s show. He shares the stage with Mario, Plies, Wale, Soulja Boy, and Shawty Lo. Talk about a breakout year. (This first video plays automatically. I’m trying to figure out how to stop it, but it’s too powerful for me right now. Gimme a minute.)

Also, my man Marcus Dowling from TGRI believes that Gucci Gucci deserves rapper of the year award over Drizzy Drake. Very intelligent and well written article, and I’d like to see how y’all feel about it. Read HERE.

Clipse Listening Party at The Vault in NYC [Video].

modi — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 10:31:28 +0000

The Clipse host an exclusive listening party/signing to play some their new album that drops December 8th Til The Casket Drops. Pusha T takes the reigns from the beginning, with Malice making a cameo somewhere in there for show. The younger of the Thronton brothers discusses the philosophy behind a few of the songs, as well as explains the creative process of the new album.They also speak a little bit on label drama and their Play Cloths clothing line. Talk about hustlers. Shout out to videographer Adam Saewitz and my man KQuick for throwing the footage my way.

Hot damn! The album has a whole rack of trunk rattlers. I heard P produced like 7 tracks, but I may be way off on that. Sidenote: I ran into Skateboard P on Monday at a very empty lounge / club in Baltimore (meaning we spoke and such, there was literally barely anybody there, so I could approach him without being too stalkering / groupie status), and was a little disappointed with the (little) interaction he had with his fans, but that’s not anything that I should be blogging about. Shout out to Fam-Lay, Chad Hugo, and the dude who runs the N*E*R*D twitter page, they were all cool as hell. Meeting your idol can, as I’ve now experienced, be very anti-climactic. He was appreciative of the N*E*R*D tattoo on my back though.

I’m just playing. It doesn’t exist. Yet. In the meantime, I’m preparing myself for this album by jamming their last mixtape. Enjoy.
