Back in 2008, Sean Garrett released a largely unnoticed album in Turbo 919. I haven’t listened to it in its entirety in awhile, but I remember his Pharrell featured ode to a highly popular drink in particular. I’m always a fan of music I can vibe out to and “Patron” did just that. Obviously, with a Pharrell record, the first thing you’re going to pay attention to is the beat. I’m not even sure if P did it, but it sounds like something he’d do, so until I find out otherwise, I’m crediting P.

Next, the melody. Perfect compliment to the beat if you ask me. Seeing as how Sean is an experienced and successful songwriter and Pharrell just naturally makes great music, it wasn’t a surprise the replay value still rings true some two years later.

On Tuesday DMX admitted to his probation officer that he violated the terms of his probation due to his use of cocaine (apparently it is a helluva drug).

I have to say i’m not surprised i’m more disappointed then anything… As a teen The Darkman was one of my favorite rappers and one of the people who I perceived as great but as time has gone on his legacy has been tarnished with arrests, drug abuse, dog fights and marred comebacks..

Last week a flyer was shown with DMX performing at a christian event and somehow I thought that thi Read rest of story…

I try to be as honest as possible whenever I post here, so this next statement is no different. This song has been on rotation since the first time I heard it months ago. Rest assured, however, Big Boi’s long awaited and heavily anticipated debut, Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty, will hit stores this year. I can all but guarantee that. (Keep reading…)

Time passes. People pass. But memories don’t. Like November 22 in politics or April 4 in civil rights, March 9 and September 13 are two dates which will forever live in infamy. It never fails to cause that same sense of pride and sadness each year. If you’re still living under a rock, March 9, 2010, marks the 13th anniversary since the murder of Christopher Wallace, better known as The Notorious B.I.G. Depending who you ask, the name Biggie Smalls evokes acronyms of “G.O.A.T.” or “K.O.N.Y.” Regardless, “icon” is pretty much the settled upon title.

But with the pride and joy that comes with listening to his music, comes the depression of still unanswered questions. I was 10 when ‘Pac died and 11 with Biggie. I still remember hiding my cassette tapes of Ready To Die and Me Against The World under my bed from my mother. I knew the music was great, but it was only over time I’d understand the significance of their murders. I’ve got books on the subject, as well as DVD’s. In a sense, both Pac and Biggie’s death were horrible realizations of some of their lyrics. Like my big homie Gotty said, Pac seemed to embrace death while B.I.G. seemed to enjoy the finer things in life (even though he knew an early death was a very possible reality). (Keep reading…)
