Spending a couple of months broing out with the dudes from Get Busy Committee has its benefits. Not only do we get exclusive bummer interviews but we get tasty song leaks as well. Scoop Deville’s trademark drums are prevalent with this one, contrasting with the filtered verses from Ryu, Apathy and Scoop himself. We’re not [...]

Wiz Khalifa is a fine example of a rapper who was able to successfully bounce back from mainstream one-hit purgatory (“Say Yeah”) and become a huge presence online.  His online following has been growing exponentially after the release of each mixtape, and his e-fame was highlighted when this year’s Kush & Orange Juice mixtape was the [...]

Freddie Gibbs is everywhere.  We are fierce supporters who inititally thought the man wasn’t getting his fair share of online attention, but for better or worse (we think for better), you can’t go a couple of days without Gibbs being mentioned or interviewed by a rap site nowadays.  Gibbs has an argument for being one [...]

Chip Tha Ripper first put his name out into the world when he mentioned something about an car interior made from crocodile an alligator skin, along with the movie theater-quality screens in his ride.  The Cleveland rapper has evolved by leaps and bounds since then, from an Internet meme to a productive member of hip-hop [...]

The other day, we told you how Kanye West was in the process of making his own movie to coincide with his next album, Dark Twisted Fantasy.  We have an idea to how it’s going to look based off of two photos, but we still have no clue when it comes to the actual plot [...]

This year’s drop of Pilot Talk by Curren$y is without a doubt one of the best hip hop albums of the year.  The combination of the smooth and rich production by Ski Beatz, united with Spitta’s playful and carefree verses, made for the perfect summer album with a solid amount of replay value for the other [...]

If you had told us a couple of years back that Rick Ross would be one of our favorite rappers, we would have given you the Prince side eye with no hesitation. However, now that we’re entering the final stretch of 2010, we think it’s safe to say that dude really killed it in 2010, [...]
