Stalley ft. Curren$y – Hammers And Vogues

Loving this track! Super smooth beat, love the hook, Stalley comes correct and Spitta never disappoints.  Great new school rap, not much else to say..

4EvaNaDay Theme - Big K.R.I.T.

K.R.I.T. is one of the best rappers around these days. Period.  This is the theme song from his new project 4eva N A Day and was created to capture the feel of the tape as a whole.  Its funny to me cuz this song reminds me a lot of the R4 theme song, which is also a great track off his last tape  Return of 4 Eva. Anyways, I have always shied away from southern rap for the most part, but K.R.I.T. is just too good, too consistent, and produces all of his own songs which is super impressive.  Anyways sit back and listen to quality rap music.

Prodigy - Slaughterhouse

Been a big Mobb Deep fan for years and years and I'm pretty much am down with whatever P puts out especially.  This track is a highlight off his new HNIC 3 mixtape.  While I don't condone rappers reusing album tittles over and over like this, especially when the original was a classic, this tape is pretty good. Get it HERE.  The beat is tight and P is doing what he does best, but what strikes me most about this track is how it is such a soft and easy beat with such violent vocals over it.  Never heard of this producer, SC, but he made a banger here, it definitely works.  anyways, enjoy

Faces - Yelawolf

Yelawolf been killing it lately and is definitely one of my favorite new rappers. He's good at taking on big heavy beats like this and then crushing them. This track is off his new EP with Ed Sheeran Slumdon Bridge, which is quality listening material, as is most of what Yela puts out.  Its good shit and if you havent listened to much Yelawolf, well I suggest you change that.

Lovin It - Little Brother

This song is in my top 10 all time.  Super ill beat, smooth rhymes, another classic.  This whole album was fire, 9th Wonder is one of my favorite producers and Phonte and Big Poo are super talented unsung rappers.  here is the link for the video as well cuz I couldn't embed it here http://youtu.be/sNVU40d7iWI

#SampleSchool: Patrice Rushen - Remind Me (1982)

Ok, sources of rap samples have always been of great interest to me, so from time to time I'm gonna throw in some cornerstone sample sources on here to put yall up on OG game.  This genre is so sample based it never stops amazing me, but I love it.  Anyways, this one right here was a staple of mid 90's west coast rap and used in a shit load of songs, my favorite being Mack 10 - Here Comes the G. If you have not heard a song that has used this sample before, I'm not sure you really listen to rap music. Actually you can download a .zip of a bunch of the songs that have sampled this one HERE, I stumbled upon this goldmine by accident actually, but this is great resource in your sample source education.

Brother Ali ft. Phonte & Stockley Williams - I'll Be Around

Perfect jam for a sunday.  I been familiar with Brother Ali for 10+ years now but never really gave dude a listen.  So he puts out this EP last week and i check it out... and its fire.  I suggest yall DL this asap, dude's been in the game a while and still putting out great shit.  The track is super smooth, Phonte is always solid, Ali holds it down and Stockley Williams on the hook rounds out this damn near perfect song. Glad I decided to give Ali an ear finally
