Gotta love this pic of Raekwon "The Chef," and this new joint he cooked up with Brooklyn MC Maino titled, "Realer."

Raekwon - Realer (ft. Maino)



[Audio] K. Sparks - Genesis




"I was in the middle of going through a lot of beats that were not grabbin me at all...after a while I got bored and put the pen down to start watching some super clear bootleg DVDs...one flick had Samuel L Jackson talkin about how he is the Genesis and that no one can fuck wit him...I thought the concept was cool and so I started lookin for a beat that could match the Genesis vibe I was goin for...then I came across this joint that T-Mos sent me...when I heard it the beat made me want to emphasize clever word play along with solid punch lines...the song has a cocky tone but it's merited...thanks for all of the support...check it out"-K.

Cam'ron - I Hate My Job


[Video] Papoose - Real Niggas Finish Last




Here goes a new street video for the track "Real Niggas Finish Last" by Papoose. I don't really understand Pap's promotion grind, this joint was not featured on his recent mixtape, so wouldn't it make more sense to drop a video for a track that was on it. Anyway, Pap's debut album is still dropping in Nevuary, can't wait.

[Audio] Rick Ross - Kiss My Pinky Ring, Curly (50 Cent Diss)




So after numerous radio interviews Rawse finally drops his own diss track at 50. After listening to the track, Ross definitely does not go in on this one, deciding rather to spit garbage lyrics with weak punchlines. The beat selection couldn't of been worse, rhyming over Black Rob's "Special Delivery,"which certainely is not the best choice for a diss record. All in all Ross should just give up as soon as possible; the internet soliders have spoken and are siding with 50 on this one.


Rick Ross - Kiss My Pinky Ring, Curly (50 Cent Diss)


Artist Spotlight: Suave The Ape




Let me introduce you to a dope up-coming MC out of New Brunswick, NJ, who goes by the name, Suave The Ape.

I put my feelings, thoughts, and visions into my work. & I express them on a beat." The joints I posted are featured on his forthcoming mixtape, The Ape Still Remains, which will be followed up by his next album, Planet of The Apes.

The Game calls up Eddie Francis on Kube 93 Radio to discuss the projects he's working on, his upcoming show in Seattle, his Madden '09 battle with Bow Wow, and last but not least his take on the ongoing 50 Cent & Rick Ross beef. Oddly enough The Game says he's ridin' with 50 on this one.

[Video] Cam'ron - I Hate My Job




So this is the way Cam'ron makes his return to the game, with a lame ass video & song about hating your job. I've always been a fan of Cam'ron's music espicially his earlier works, but it appears his music ability has suffered since the Dipset break-up. Hopefully Cam can find his old self and return to the form we all know and enjoy.

Kobe Bryant put on a show for the ages, scoring 61 points without missing one free throw. The Knicks were able to stay in the game through three quarters but Kobe was completely unstoppable and was the difference in the game. His 61 Points is a record for anyone in Madison Square Garden, surpassing the legend Michael Jordan's classic performance. With the Cleveland Cavs & Boston Celtics coming to the garden this week, the Knicks are gonna have to step up their defensive play.

[Video] 50 Cent Threatens Rick Ross




“Hey what’s up? Alright, y’all caught me. I was practicing for my new rock-n-roll album.”

50 Cent takes a break from recording his "rock album" to discuss his new beef with Rick Ross. 50 states that he is gonna fuck Officer Ricky's life up for fun, and says that he has already purchased the court transcripts from Ricky's past life. He also takes a shot at DJ Khaled calling him a "faggot." Being that 50 is one of the most entertaining characters in hip-hop, when situations like this arrive he is more then willing to get it on and take it to wax. He has taken part of three of the most entertaining rap beefs in history in recent years, and most certainely bows down to nobody. I look forward to hearing more disses from 50, since I could careless for Ross and his bullshit music.

[Audio] Fat Joe ft. Akon - One





Here goes the first single off Fat Joe's untitled new album, featuring none other than Akon. Fat Joe is one of the most diverse artists in the game, rangeing from joints like "That White" produced by DJ Premier to "Make It Rain" featuring Lil Wayne. He definitely has the ability to make a hit over any type of beat, but I'd personally like to see his ol' school D.I.T.C. swagger back.


Fat Joe ft. Akon - One



[Audio] Raekwon - Yes Sir (ft. Ghostface Killah & Crooked I)




On February 19th, Stenge-O-Matic of Anotha Level will be releasing a project called “The Live & Direct Show” which features none-other-than Crooked I. However, this project is more than a regular underground feature as Crooked I appears along side the Wu-Tang Clan’s Raekwon and Ghostface Killah. Many Hip Hop fans would consider this to be a “dream team” collaboration. Fans are able to preview the track on the project’s MySpace page and can make their purchase through Amazon when it becomes available. Those who are not familiar with Stenge-O-Matic’s group Anotha Level may be interested to know that their first album “On Anotha Level” was executively produced by Ice Cube and sold over 250,000 records in 1994. Stenge’s upcoming “Live & Direct Show” also features T.I., Glasses Malone, Akon and many more. Make sure to cop this project and support this heat!
