Here’s the thing. With March 2 drawing closer and closer, expect to see more and more tracks like this. Realistically, Weezy probably has enough music stored away to drop a new track every day he’s locked up without probably ever touching what’s meant for Tha Carter IV. This featured track, “I’m On It,” finds Weezy playing swingman on this new horn-filled Tyga track.

Look for this to appear on Tyga’s new album, Careless World, which should be released later this year. The tatted, West Coast YM implant has been constantly improving since introduction a few years back, so this outing should be impressive. Download it, enjoy it, add it to your Young Money archives.

A few years back, more like five or six, a good friend told me Killer Mike was the down south version of Nas. Back then, I knew who Mike was, but had never really invested in his music. Thankfully, I smartened up. While I’m not sure if I can compare anyone to Nas, Mike is one of the most potent lyricists in the game today. His music has purpose and he is never afraid to speak his mind, both on and off the mic. He just has that raw intensity in his music which let’s you know every time he breaths on the mic, it’d be best to pay attention. Bottom line, the guy is still underrated to this day, but never under-appreciated in my circle of MC’s.

On “Still My Nigga,” Mike grabs fellow ATLien and feature guest-extraordinaire, Ludacris, and West Coast wingman, Game. According to the homie Mo’ G: (Keep reading…)

Friday night at the Loft in Atlanta J Cole preformed and put on a good show. He showed the A-town love when he brought out  Atlanta native B.O.B! – exclusiveaccess.net

It’s been a good day for Rick Ross. First, 50 Cent was sued for his “directorial debut” of Ricky’s baby mama’s sextape. I’m sure he smoked to that. Secondly, he, along with Cartel connects, dropped The Timeless Audemars Piguet Collection. (Keep reading…)

It worked for Maxwell and it’s working for Sade. Maybe artists need to take a break for close to a decade and make a valiant return. Who says albums can’t sell anymore?

It is a beautiful thing when celebrities give back and Tameka “Tiny” Cottle demonstrates this with poise. On Monday February 22, Tiny held a fundrasier for Alzheimer’s disease, a illness which plagues her elderly father. During the event which was held at The Atlanta Opera, Tiny’s fiance rapper Clifford “T.I.” Harris came out and showed support for his love with his first public apperance. During the gathering the recently released convict seemed to be in good spirits and was quoted as saying ” I am very well, very happy to be seen.”

In other T.I. news, his manager Jason Geter recently told MTV that  his next album is anticipated to be released by the end of the summer. Some producers to be featured are  DJ Toomp, Danja and The Runners as well as features from The-Dream and Trey Songz already locked in.

A few days ago Karen uploaded a photo of Travis Barker and Clipse in the studio. All I know now is they were working on material for Travis Barker’s upcoming compilation album. That got me to thinking, however. A solo album from one of music’s most famous drummer would be a welcomed edition to the summer (or fall) of 2010.

You see, Barker is an interesting blend. He’s not completely rock and he’s not completely hip-hop, but yet, somehow he finds a happy medium. His relationship with Game is already known and finding Weezy on the final tracklist may not be too far fetched. But since I have your attention right now, here’s a list of five artists I’d like to see T.B. work with. (Keep reading…)

How do you give a song new legs? You remix it, that’s how. Ester Dean’s career has taken a nice boost in noterity since her single, “Drop It Low,” with Chris Brown was featured on the LeBron James documentary, “More Than A Game.” It’s a nice uptempo club track which has seen its fair level of success both publically and on the charts.

Pieces of this official remix have come put together like Legos. First Weezy’s verse dropped. Then a big remix with Weezy, Ester, Trey Songz and Chris dropped a few agos. Now, finally, we have to “official” remix to the record featuring none other than Bad Boy billionaire (he’s close enough), Diddy. Well, Weezy bats off first with a catchy verse and Trey basks in the glory of his success (“Five top 10′s, you can say I’m on a roll…”). Chris follows Trey with a nice offering of his own.

But it’s Diddy who’s been riding off his last verse off Waka’s “O Let’s Do It.” I guess he didn’t want to jeopardize it because he falls back to the roll of hype man on this track. One thing we did learn, however, Diddy “likes a girl with meat on their bones.”

SHOUTS TO POLOW!

Here is part 1 of a brief interview that ImFlashy had with Drizzy, who performed at the Sprite Step Off Show in Atlanta this weekend. We spoke to him on his upcoming debut, Thank Me Later and what we can expect. The significance of the video is when he references a certain legend in Hip Hop that he studied for the album.
