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

The Return of Mase

karenmasecam2

For as predictable as hip-hop can be at times, it’s just as unpredictable. Five years removed from one of the mase infamous radio interviews ever and four from this picture, chances are many doubted ever seeing these two in a recording booth ever again. Who knew when I took this picture in February 2005 on a hot day in Miami, that a few years later these guys would would actually be planning a comeback of sorts…at least so it seemed.

The return of Mase (again) to the realm of hip-hop is essentially too little, too late. At this point, Mase’s character, more than his music, has turned people away permanently, including myself. The rapper-preacher-rapper-preacher-and now rapper again act is tired, played out and down right unacceptable (seeing as how I am a Catholic). Hearing the two (Mase and Cam) on the same track again obviously resonates memories of a fond past, but at this point, not many people yearn to hear what he has to say. Even if he resorts back to his “Murda Mase” days, he still has a congregation in Atlanta to account for, making him look like an even larger hypocrite in the end. It’s a lose-lose situation all-around.

His recent interview with Miss Info proved to be more propaganda than fact. Claims of a “much bigger project” were shot down by Cam himself only hours later, thus adding another chink in Betha’s already war-torn armor. If that wasn’t already enough ammunition against the former leader of Harlem World, his claims of Michael Jackson’s death inspiring him to return to hip-hop and become the “greatest entertainer in the world” were, for the lack of a better term, foolish.

To simply put it, Mase is irrelevant. His stint with 50 failed miserably and now a reunion with Cam seems to be working, just not in the capacity he had envisioned. As Jim Jones said in 2004, “Go back to your congregation in Atlanta.”

This hip-hop sh*t just isn’t for you anymore, Mase.

Rhymefest: FAIL

With all the fuckary Rhymefest is “trying” to cause, he has given me a brilliant idea. I decided to create a section to rappers like him who  are just pathetic in every aspect of their career. Don’t take this as me jumping on the Charles Hamilton bandwagon, but I’ve seen fest do this before in my Dipset days and this ninja just really annoys the hell out of me.

 He did a interview with Hip Hop Connection and said he respected Dizzee Rascal and The Streets but we’re fakes that got signed to Roc-a-fella claiming we were doing it big when we wasn’t doing shit. He just popped out with it out of nowhere, unprovoked and we had never met. The dude Mark Ronson even gave us a Slick Rick beat to re do when we was at Roc-a-fella and we were always very respectful with him being he was British.” Mayhem from SAS

 

Rhymefest has a habit of giving praise but than using media outlets to get his jealous/envious hatred point across.  I have a few theories, really not theories but reasons why Rhyme is so bitter. I would be easy on him, being that it looks like he has down syndrome, but even they aren’t this retarded!

 

1.       You’re going to be collecting social security checks soon.

2.       Your Mark Ronson & Kanye West tax right off.

3.       You need exposure for the mixtape no one cares about

4.       Your upset Julito (Namond from the wire) had more fans than you that night
