Damn I thought the Roots or at least Em's album would get the award..oh well. Haven't heard anything new lately, but I know Raekwon dropped Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II: Gold Edition but that's just bonus tracks/remixes.
Just got to the second song and am expecting Kei$ha to enter the frame anytime after the intro . The lyrix must be something else then, already down 1/2 a mic ... Regular staf must've been on holiday ...
Success (Back To You) Produced by Dr. Dre is a great lead single. Too bad the album was decent IMO. Although he's down south, it's just not my style. Don't get me wrong I love the south, but he's just meh.. UGK 4 LIFE R.I.P PIMP C
Kanye West : 'I bled hard' over Swift debacle AP – FILE - In this Sept. 13, 2009 file photo, singer Kanye West takes the microphone from singer Taylor Swift … – 26 mins ago NEW YORK – Hip-hop star Kanye West is still feeling the pain over his trophy grab from Taylor Swift last year — and he's expressing his pain all over Twitter. West has unleashed a torrent of emotions on his official Twitter on Saturday, acknowledging he was wrong for taking an award from the country music sweetheart at the MTV Video Music Awards. But he says he "bled hard." He says he had to cancel his tour with Lady Gaga and even lost employees. He once again apologized to Swift and says he has written a song for Swift that he hopes she will perform. West experienced tremendous backlash over the stunt — even President Barack Obama called him a jackass. West is working on a new album and due to appear at the VMAs again this year.
Taylor Swift doesn't have the curvature but Kanye sure had to kiss ass for the slip of tongue (or was it, a slip of tongue after all.).

Yeah baby, how about triple, quadruple even quintuple PLATINUM! Recovery - Rap Album Of The Year! ...for me at least! Ah well, quintuple platinum (if it gets there) is on par or better than 5 mics imo.
Trey songz coming out with a new album september 14th. Can't wait! I basically put his previous album on repeat for the whole summer. Dude has really matured nicely as one of the top r&b artists today apart from usher, jay sean etc...
Hey does someone know "Death Certificate", an old album by Ice Cube ? I saw it's discounted only 5€ on ITunes Any review ?
Taylor Swift has written a song of her own and she's gonna perform it (maybe pick and rip somebody apart, maybe not but who knows!) oh boy, oh boy Kanye has really gone WEST since the stage coup on Taylor Swift. Just imagine the lyrics written by Swift regarding his boyfriends...West is not boyfriend of hers.
Gaga feasts on MTV meat beat! Lady Gaga was crowned queen of the MTV Video Music Awards, winning eight prizes, including video of the year. Gaga accepted her video of the year award with an outfit sure to anger animal activists: a dress and chapeau made of what seemed to be cuts of raw beef, including a meat purse. In addition to winning video of the year, Gaga took home the prizes for female video, pop video, dance video, choreography, direction and editing. Her raunchy lesbian prison-themed video for Telephone, featuring Beyonce, won for best collaboration. The only other multiple winner was eight-time winner Eminem, who won a pair of awards for his Not Afraid. The rapper opened the show with a medley of songs. Teen pop idol Justin Bieber was named best new artis for his Baby, featuring rapper Ludacris. - Reuters
You're still an innocent, Swift sighs to Kanye! The drama between Swift and West – who were both nominated for awards but lost – was a sequel to last year’s unscripted debacle in which West interrupted Swift’s acceptance speech to proclaim that her trophy should have gone to Beyonce. The incident left Swift with hurt feelings, but the backlash seriously damaged West. However, she offered an olive branch with her song Innocent. ‘’Everyone of us has messed up, too…I hope you remember today is never too late to be brand new,’’ she sang. Swift’s poignant and powerful ode symphatized with West’s difficult time in the spotlight and his own admissions that his ego often gets in his way. ‘’Thirty-two and still growing up now; who you are is not what you did,’’ she sang seriously and softly, adding: ‘’You’re still innocent.’’ West’s song, which was preceded by scattered boos from the audience, did not seem to address last years’s incident, but talked about the obnoxious behaviour that has often overshadowed his talent. ‘’I always find something wrong; you’ve been putting up with my s*** for too long,’’ he sang, before launching into an unprintable chorus, which included the line: ‘’Let’s have a toast to scumbags.’’ - AP
