8. Kid Cudi – Indicud – 36,000 – Following a few listens, this album personally didn’t do much for me. It’s selling well, so congrats to buddy for that. “Pursuit Of Happiness,” however, is one of the most important life songs of the past decade though. No hyperbole. (more…)

A day late, but still not a dollar short.

2. KiD CuDi – Indicud – 136,000 - I’m still trying to decide how I feel about this album. Nevertheless, pushing this in the first week with no real radio/TV push is quite impressive. Or good. Pun sorta-kinda intended. (more…)

One of the hardest working rappers in the game today is the New Orleans born Curren$y. He is currently working on releasing his next project New Jet City that is scheduled to release on Super Bowl Sunday, and to give us insight on its creation Spitta provides us “5 Minutes” a Jet Life Film and Street Customs Media Division presentation. In the video we catch a preview of the track “Choosin” featuring Rick Ross and Wiz Khalifa as well as backstage and live show footage of a recent concert at the New Orleans House of Blues. Check out the video after the jump…

Young Jeezy drops two of his special g-mixes via illroots to Curren$y‘s ‘Jet Life‘ and also Future‘s ‘Itchin’‘. It’s always a great Sunday when we get a visit from the snowman himself! Hit the jump to listen to the other release.

Announced via Twitter earlier by way of Curren$y, here is a new track from Mac Miller featuring the Jetlife general himself, titled Cold. It’s produced by Chuck Inglish and yet another simple reminder of what a force Mac is. With his latest single Loud off of Macadelic slowly creeping into the Top 10 spot on iTunes, we have a lot more to look forward to from him.

Jet Life and Maybach Music collide for the release of New Orleans rapper Curren$y’s debut single from his forthcoming album “The Stoned Immaculate.” The track is “What It Look Like” and he joines forces with Wale. The video tells the story of a true Jet Life MC; it begins with Curren$y exiting a jet and performing in an airport.  Wale is also a part of the visuals and so is a small orchestra. We can expect “The Stoned Immaculate.” on June 5th.

The entire Jet familia celebrated the release of the label’s compilation album Jet World Order at New York City’s Highline Ballroom. Wiz Khalifa showed up to perform for a minute, but mainly kick it on the couch with Spitta and smoke doobies (because you know he’s still injured).

For those interested in supporting the crew’s weed habit, head over to iTunes and scoop the album up. Pending you can find the hard copy, it’d make a great stocking stuffer this time of the year, too.

Had to bring the throwback pic back.

Fueled by the magical powers of THC, Spit Vicious lets loose of the second peak into his upcoming DJ Drama co-signed mixtape Verde Terrace. Using MMG’s “Pandemonium,” Curren$y does what he does giving you yet another track from him to add to the archives. If math serves me correctly, the tape with Dram will be his fourth this year. The title is always up for debate, but I’m not sure if there is a harder working individual in rap in terms of projects.

And keep in mind, that tape with Wiz and Big Sean still has to drop as well as Pilot Talk 3. I’m not sure what the record is, but he’s going for it. In the right hands, weed can be lead to excessive productivity.
