Watch The Throne Meets "Bohemian Rhapsody:" Weekend Money - Naked City EP (Greedhead)

It kinda seems like Weekend Money were added to the Das Racist/Union Transfer bill in the final hour" ... But man, they've gotta be the TIGHTEST rap crew I've never heard of! Ne$$ & Baghdaddy proceeded to [brutally] open the show and were followed up by fellow Greedhead labelmates: SAFE, Lakutis , and flamboyant rapper LE1F . Impose Magazine goes on to cleverly point out that this is NOT the same Ness that Diddy notoriously sent across the frozen Brooklyn Bridge to buy a cheesecake on Making The Band 2 . Weekend Money Ne$$ was born and raised in Philly and is now co-aligned with politically conscious Hip-Hop group, dead prez . Since immigrating 1/2 way across the world, DJ Baghdaddy has been able to learn/produce under the wing of seasoned Roots beatsmith, Hot Sugar . Ne$$ had a chance meeting with Baghdaddy @ a party; While he had never produced a Hip-Hop beat before, the 2 ended up vibing pretty well... melding together Hip-Hip & Electro att...

It's The ROC: Jay Electronica - "Act II: Patents of Nobility (the turn)" #Tracklist

I don't think I've ever been so fucking elated [EXCITED] to see a tracklist for an album that doesn't really even exist yet!; Just a few mere hours ago, Jay Electronica Tweeted a screengrab of Act II: Patents of Nobility (the turn) in his iTunes , which was originally rumored to have been released online over Winter Break 2008-09. Jay-Z has supposedly been [with]holding Act II since Jay Electronica turned the final version into Roc-Nation back in March 2012 because he thinks "it has no single on it," which I find pretty hard to believe... considering the breath-taking gamut of featured talent: Kanye (2) , Erykah Badu, Sean "Diddy" Combs , Jay-Z (2), Charlotte Gainsbourg , The Bullitts , The-Dream, and even Ronald Regan/Serge Gainsbourg !? After while, my eye noticed that quite a few STELLAR, previously-released tracks like "Dear Moleskine," "Exhibit A-C" (Remix), and that Nasty Nas guest verse are noticeably absent from Ac...

Gold and A Pager: Rick Ross & Chuck Inglish - "Party Heart" (Rich Forever, Working.)

I'm just gonna go a head and call this one early - Most Random/Awesome Collaboration of 201 2: Rick Ross & Chuck Inglish - "Party Heart" (BAWSE grunt). Nestled towards the tail-end of Rich Forever , the track almost feels like an appropriate "prize" for those successfully make it all the way to Ross' newest mixtape's end. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think that I'd hear Rick Ross properly lacing up a Boom-Bap , 808 -hitting [Throwback] Cool Kids -crafted beat. Stalley and 2 Chainz also contribute additional lyrical stylings to the heart-felt festivities. Man, I really hope Maybach Music Group decides to shoot an accompanying "Party Heart" music video! Rich Forever , intended to serve as an ample place-holder for God Forgives, I Don't , is now available for desktop download. Fresh on the heels of The Cool Kids' major label debut (When Fish Ride Bicycles), Chuck Inglish recently branched out on his own and releas...
