Atlanta-based artist Dose is set to release his debut mixtape, The OverDose, to follow-up on the success of his bubbling single, “Where They Do That At (remix, feat. Rick Ross & Fabolous).” The OverDose will focus on Dose’s ability to excel in not only making catchy hooks, but displaying a lyrical versatility not seen in the South since T.I.’s prime.

"Civilized Talk" finds us at a funeral service. A joyous and upbeat one at that. After weeks of push backs, 11th hour recordings and a few back and forth squabbles with DJ Drama on Twitter, their highly anticipated mixtape, There Is No Competition 2.


Malice and Pusha T, collectively known as The Clipse, are by far one of the game's premiere duos. Hailing from the 757 area of Virginia, the brothers have amassed a reputation which has seen them successfully merge drugs and rap, almost effortlessly. Read More


We Are Young Money, had been anticipated since the lead single, "Every Girl", leaked in January. To the group's credit, they've managed to maintain momentum throughout the year headlined by the album's release on December 23. Read More

"Bad Boy For Life…"

This is flippin’ amazing…to me. While taking a break on his train to Paris, Puffy (that is what I will always refer to him as, no disrespect) takes time out to acknowledge some of the most famous offspring in music. Now I know you’re not supposed to force your children to do anything against their will (no “To Catch A Predator”), but I’ll be damned if I can’t see these two picking up where their famous fathers left off.

Lil’ B.I.G. aka CJ truly is his father’s son. I’m not sure how the original Chris Wallace acted at that age, but his son has the image and demanor of his pop’s at age 22-24 to a tee. Will he rap? I have no clue. For his sake, I hope not because the comparisons will be ruthless and truthfully, no one would ever let him escape the image of his iconic parent. Hell, even parents, you know who his mother is.

Now, Lil’ Diddy is just like his father. Nothing really more to be said about that. First thing out his mouth, “I’m just happy I got my swag back.” Oh yeah, he’s a Combs. No doubting that.

For kicks,  Poppa Puffy (pause) even bought lil’ D-Roc to the scene too. This truly is the ’90’s reincarnated. All in all, it’s good to see Puff spending some time with the kids. Even if it may be the precursor for their future music careers. More than I can say about a lot of fathers running around out here.

On a side note, I wonder if ‘Pac ever had any kids the public never knew about. That’d make the situation all the more interesting.
