Big K.R.I.T and Emilio rip it in the normal way, but if you’ve never seen or heard Laws you kind of don’t know how he’ll hold up in his own song…or maybe that was just me.   I was a bit confused by Laws “look/story” but I love his animated-ness and he is a lyricist so I’m Team laws now. I guess I’m not the only one, at print thevideo has 117,096 views on Onsmash.  Good job. It’s Off Laws’ 5:01 Overtime and is directed by Derek Pike.

Which side will rep the best?

“Like I wish ya’ll would stop the bullshit, Gucci didn’t fire me.  I have no beef with Gucci, I have no beef with Nicki, he (Wacka) don’t have no beef…”

And there you have it.  Deb Atney, Wacka’s mother and Gucci Mane’s former manager blast’s Vibe magazine for releasing misleading statements about the relationship between Wacka and Gucci recently.  Wacka also addressed the statement’s on Gangsta Grillz radio with DJ Drama.

He had this to say:

“I don’t think it’s no split. We couldn’t meet each other on a business level…or a personal level,” Flocka told DJ Drama. “Whatever the level is, I don’t know. I’m going this way and [he's] going that way and we both killin’ these folk. That’s just what it is…Ain’t no drama. Don’t ever think it’s just like, ‘Ey, let’s get [him]‘ … Don’t ever think I’m [going] to ride on him with another person. Let’s make that super clear.”

Remember neo-soul singer Cherokee of the “Little Red Boat” fame?  Well she’s baaackk!  She has a new track called So Suga Street and she sounds better than ever. spotted at BLS

So how do you properly market a quadruple-threat, force of nature such as her?

That was the question the record label faced. Unable to come up with a simple answer they may have spread her too thin opting to increase her exposure instead of focusing her appeal. So while she was blowing-up, performing on Soul Train and Motown Live with the likes of Sheila E. and doing long-running, national GAP ad campaigns that had her plastered on billboards across nearly a dozen states the label still hadn’t figured out how to categorize her.

9th wonder dons yet another moniker for this video with Actual Proof (Enigma, Sundown and Amp) and Rapsody directed by Kenneth Price.

Sometimes you have to go Back To Black.  Even if you’re a positive, bubbly person there is a healing in black and white.  By keeping things basic you can see where you chose the things that weren’t exactly right for you because they glittered.  What I find interesting that I didn’t know at the time, was that she stated an in interview, Me & Mr. Jones was written about Nas.  This album is definitely a top ten greatest albums of all time.

This video shoot was about two months ago in Atlanta. For Sean Garrett I would suggest not waiting so long to bring out the smash.   Especially if in the meantime the other video’s confused the hell out of people. This is the best Tyga has ever sounded and I absolutely love this song.  Although I won’t hate on the typicalness in the video because it is fitting, I will say that I wish Sean would find his personal best in style and stick with it.  He seems like a really nice person but he gets a lot of flack on that tip.  Word to the wise, Return Of The Mack is pase’.   Talk to me…

Ya’ll are going to love this, especially Turn Me Away (Get Munny).  It’s an ode to gold digger’s sampling Sylvia Striplin’s “You Can’t Turn Me Away”. Directed by Control Freaq x Creative Control and the video is produced by Triggerhappy NYC.  Rick Ross picks Miss E up after she’s released from jail and it’s all downhill from there for the unlikely Bonnie and Clyde coupling.  Downhill is completely subjective but watch til the end to see what I mean.  Props to jose3030

Wreckineyez, also known as Asher Roth’s DJ has another new mixtape out.  You can download the mixtape here and listen to it before you download it under the fold.

What is this shit?  Why the hell are they tryna change up my Gucci Mane?  I like Gucci Mane exactly the way he is, I don’t need him to sound like a mini Swizz Beatz.   This must be for the up north birds.  Who the hell cares about them?  Do you know what time it is? Icktime   What do ya’ll think?  Georgia’s Most Wanted: The Appeal due out September 28th.

Update: Today is 8/20/10 and the song is slightly growing on me.  sigh.
