You seen Alchemist on MtV??  What was he doing or talking about??

i thought i saw a music video of his? haha.. i was like wtf? this guy is white? HAHAHA j/k i knew he was white but i didn't think it was true

I saw like 15 seconds of it. I didn't really like it.

[First_Born]

You were suprised that Alchemist was white???? $hit, he's been around for awhile lacing beats, and he's quite the producer with lots of street cred.

[Lao_Dreamer]

I finally lisyened to 2Pac's "Loyal to Tha Game" His song 'Ghetto Gospel' was good. It's kinda weird that they got Elton John on it. so far I like "Black Cotton" and "Thugs Get Lonely Too" I'm still listening to the rest 2

Ok you hip hop rap fanatics, Ive been sleeping on giving you some news so here I go,

First off The Aftermath label looks like its going to have quite a
prestige year for the 05 if everything goes well.
Dre's Detox album looks like it will be completed since Dre has
been sweated and hasseled by so many.
Eve and Busta Rhymes album should be in
the final stages and looking for a Spring/Summer release. The Game which
also is looking to drop his highly anticipated album by Jan 18th. His song "How We Do" is quite nice. 50 Cent has been wrecking shop with his
"Disco Inferno" single and his "St. Valentines Day" is said to be dropping
on Feb. 15th. Even though I dont like 50 his beats and guests appearences make it worthy.

Law suit in progress?? It looks like Kanyeezy(West) and Luda is in for some
legal matter as the New Jersey based group I.O.F. (Its Only Family) is
claiming that the Luda single "Stand Up" contains elements of I.O.F.'s track "Straight Up Like That". Luda has dropped disses about them on the song "Pass Out" but a rebuttal was made by them called "Fukk Ludacris" over Fat Joe's "Victim"
beat. Sounds like some serious heat if true since both Luda and Kanye are grammy award nominators.

Kanyeezy isnt off the hook just yet,it seems that the hip hop community isnttoo happy with West recieving 10 grammy nominations, not jealousy but how the recording process was done. The main reason is the single "Jesus Walks" which got nominated for both best rap and song of the year, was actually bought by Kanye from Rhymefest who is credited for co-writing the song. It is also rumored that Rhymefest indeed was who wrote and produced the track then sold it to Kanye but the was re-recorded.

Shyne is linking up with Marky Mark(Walberg) to make a docu. on prisoner life. Walberg has interviewed several other inmates and also other artists. It looks like it might make it to the silver screenand Shyne's 3rd solo album is in the works production by Kanyeezy, Just Blaze and the ALchemist!!! Looks liuke Shyne's career looks alot more shinier inside prison than most of the ones outside of the clink. haha

The Canadien rapper K-os has been making a serious name for himself.
He is already gold in Canada and is the #1 most downladable on the
Apple I-Pod center is "Crabbuckit" Check out his song "The Love Song".
Its still good to hear some non-flashy songs

Here something of interest, according to A.J. Abdullah who helped
concieve Eminem's first album has decided to auction off the studio known as Studio 8 in which created the Grammy award winning rapper. Located on the 8 Mile strip where Em grew up is being bid off on Ebay by A.J. for $215,000.


Other news for you rap heads.

It looks like hip hop slang has found its way into the Webster English Dictionary.
Bling Bling has been added couple years ago I beleive, but now
added one word punchlines including "thugged out", "crack ho", and "hoochie"

And the final news is the whole 50/Murder Inc Beef. Accusations have surfaced that the truth behind the beef lies in the lap
of Kenneth"Supreme" Mcgriff and his connections to the Inc. Mcgriff whose been under high investigastion through the F.B.I for laundering money to the label, has been said to be the directly responsible for odering the life of 50 back in '00. Even bigger rumors is that McGriff is also connected in the murder of 50's ma when he
was a child. These are just rumors as of date that surfaced so dont think its factual, just yet.


Anyway sorry for such delays on keeping you informed on the subject as there are more
news on the way, its just Im too lazy to write up the news. Until then, Keep it Freshhhhhhhh, ganksta!!!!!!

[First_Born]

Ok more news for you rap freaks

Well I dont know if you guys knew that there was some beef
with the Qb's finest group, Mobb Deep and manager Littles.
Apparently it was rumored that Prodigy and Alchemist were "sell outs"
in the eyes of Hav and Littles, Speculation of break up had occured but
can that be if they are on tour agian. Hav, P and Alc are gearinging up
for a tour of the UK from Jan. 31st to Feb 2nd. It looks however P and Littles still have some heat they need to relieve.


As I had said earlier about the whole Rhymefest and Kanye controversy, it looks his version has surfaced with slight variations but is still credited as
co-writer for Kanye's claimed melody. It is said Rhymefest has ghostwritten 6 songs for the late ODB and finishing up his debut album due late summer. Fukk if he is ghostwritting for heads of that stature, he might as well make his own album!!

Well some of you may knw that Jay-Z has been seated as head chief at Def Jam last month and his first signing may shock the fukk outta you. Lil Wayne is said to be the first to sign his life to Def Jam which in turn may make him ever so pop. He isnt that good but he ok.

About time these fools got back in the lab and did something. The duo All Natural (Cap and Tone)will be dropping their third indy release "Vintage" Guest appearences will include Jungle BrothersEl Da Sensai, Dug Infinite, Iomos Mirad, Allstar and Spotlite including Rob C!

Well there you have it for now you crazy kids, ear to the street and keep it ffffffresh, ganksta!!!!!

lol... lil wayne sucks... hahaha


neways, this is more hip hop than rap, but still...

this afternoon i was watching the centre... (student centre, or center or w/e) yea, and Keisha Chanté was on... Sure it was a song that came out in spring for us, but it's more proof that canadian hip hop artists are starting to break through into american media!

[First_Born]

Because the word hip hop is so generic and overly used Im back saying the word rap as that is what the art fom of emceeing is. Im not discriminating any types of the rap entertainment so then all the news will be heard. It wouldnt be fair if I just kept it on one level would it?, Anyway both mainstream and underground is open for discussion.

Thugged out was a NORE and Half-a-Mil favorite phrase. It was the militant rappers that were Thugged out, haha

[Chino]

Hmm, just bought the "old" Benzino CD: The Benzino Project... I must admit it's kinda "my style"... I liked it... I'll give it: 3 out of 5 stars... Thought it was better than his last album "Redemption"...

The only time I liked Benzino was the Almighty RSO, other than that, dude is wack.
