Wow, Did Russell's little nephews come a long way. They have the hip hop world supporting them, so sky is the limit. The mixtape got pushed back for his purposes but i really hope the Atlantic signee work close on his album too.

Pensar ( The Diddy Conspiracy)

What's Good?
Everybody knows I always acknowledge all aspects of music and something fell upon me. Diddy has been The Mogul of the music period. Well Russell set the trend but Diddy globalized and marketed it. Now in the industry with so many accolades under his belt Diddy is looking to reign again as Hip-Hop's leading man. What I've noticed in the past few months is that Diddy is rebuilding his legacy through his 1995 blueprint. If you haven't noticed , Diddy is placing some of Hip-Hop's front runners in the place of his 1997 Bad Boy roster that went missing. Peep game...Have you noticed  that Diddy is treating Ross like BIG? Running around the music industry insulting Biggies legacy saying that Ross is the new BIG. Using his mogul image in all of Ross' Appearances to popularize the Miami native. His next artist is Nicki Minaj who is soon to step out as Kim,well not Kim but surely consume her image. Minaj may not be the best lyricist but she can get help just like Kim did. All the provocative clothing with raunchy but sexy attitude has become Minaj's image.
Now beefing with Lil Kim the media will make sure that Minaj stands on top and put Kim's memory to past in the eyes of the young generation who didn't experience the first Bad Boy era. Dirty Money is obviously Total. Which you can see now because its Diddy and Dirty Money. Once these two vocally talented woman place themselves in the musical gap when it opens Diddy will push them down the ears of every undecided listener. More acts will come soon but peep game while its formulating. He will rebuild his empire but without all the failing acts he invested in over ten years ago.

Now with the anticipation of J. Cole's debut album 'Cole World' set to release anytime now, He gives us 'Premeditated Murder' which is his reflection of his three steps. (Where He Been, Where he's at and where he is goin. It was good look seeing the homie at Brooklyn Heatwave yesterday on his civilian flow.

Check Something New: GRAM G. - Sensation






GRAM G is a rapper out of the dmv that delivers his own unique style giving us "feel good music". "Sensation" by Gram (Produced by Bo Zone) is an ode to self confidence. Believing in yourself goes a long way when others may not see what you see and continue to hate. So appreciate your craft and eventually the nay sayers will follow. This is the lead single from his upcoming mixtape Pardon The Interuption (PTI) with production from yours truly, Bo Zone.

Check Something New: ev4n holt - Uphill Battle (mixtape)





Rapper and OKills family member ev4n holt has dropped another quick project. Featuring production by KReam Team, Super 3, Envoy, and a few industry instrumentals from the likes of Jay Electronica and Kanye West, ev4n sets out to prove why he is different from every other hip hop artist. ev4n simply raps about his life experiences (the Uphill Battle) while keeping it interesting with witty lyricism.

Music is definitely doing good maybe not on a sales level but its doing good!
Trey Songz is definitely on board for G.O.O.D. music day which is going to make history. Well here is the first single and its featuring Nicki Minaj. This album has to be crazy because you guys can say you heard it from NC that Chris Brown and NeYo are going to put some heaters out there come the end of the year hopefully.


Rozay is crushing the rap game as we speak. Linking up with Diddy was the best thing in his career. Diddy

What's Good?
Today as I came into work I recieved some horrible news about one the greatest owners in sports history. George Steinbrenner passed on this morning from a health complication but left a great legacy guiding the Yankees to win 11 pennants and 7 world series. All though his relationship with New York was bittersweet we still had certain respect for each other. I send my Condelences to the Steinbrenner family and the Yankees organization. Lets finish the season strong and bring another one back to New York for GEORGE!

NAACP Backs Legalization of Marijuana



I am for legalization but I wish that this woman who is making the argument had a deeper knowledge of marijuana facts and arguments for legalization. She has the opportunity to have her voice heard but her lack of arguments to legalize marijuana (like the reasons why marijuana was criminalized in the first place) might hurt her push... but I am for it.. it will get us out of this terrible economy and keep minorities out of jail... What I didn't like is the reverend in the video comparing the marijuana use to his drug use like crack cocaine... no where near the same homie... what do yall think about??

Pensar...

What's Good?
As we all come to red lights in life, Do we actually stop and analyze all the turns we made in life. When analyzing these turns do we need a specific setting or do we go home and shut the world out. Living in New York City has lead me to many up and down and more downs than up but when its up(pause) its up big time (pause). If you live in New York or any other major city please take time out from everything because this busy life style can be the death of you. I understand the economy is rough and that we want to find jobs to continue in life but we have to stop and meditate on our thoughts.

Rick Ross just dropped the hottest song of the summer...

Check It Out

What's Good?
MTV brought out a new show titled 'When I was 17' which covers some of today major stars' adolescent years. This one introduces the most innovated producer of my time...Mr. Pharrell Williams. I find this one so inspirational because he is my music idol. Creating a genre of life in music by going left feel of what the urban community needed Pharrell and the Neptunes are the pioneers of the Dunk and Fatigue era which now brings you music's evolution and changing point of the new era of music. Maybe I went a little too deep.

New Music Update

What's Good?
Yo Drake linked up with some great producers to make a hit, not to mention the late 90's feel to his Aston Martin Music feature on Rick Ross album...Well it's the same beat! The J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League is too official with beats and an honorable mention to 40. Shout Out Bobby James

New Artist Alert

What's Good?
Many artist submit music and at least once a month we put out one good aspiring XXL freshman. This months artist is Dave Raps who is from a couple places as shown on his profile. Dave Raps is quite on track to where hip-hop is going. His flow meets a lot of things that are in existence in the rap world but  with development he will find his way. He definitely will be a known name in this place call stardom. Give 'em a chance now before you will need a ticket for his band wagon.

So all the fuss and web pandemonium has come to an end. All the anticipation was worth it. Jay-Z definitely did the dam thing. I can sit here and quote the whole verse but I'll let you check it for yourself. Jay really confronted all of the "illumanti" accusations.
