Title explains it all.  Press Play.  RIP Biggie.

I’m feelin the mixture of animation and real cuts, along with the random cameo from Bruce Willis in this one.  Off their album Plastic Beach, set to be released March 9th.  If you want to listen to their full album, and when I mean full album, I mean the stream won’t let you skip ahead or back, you can listen to a run-through HERE, courtesy of Guardian.

Here is a new club baaaaannngggeeerrr by The-Dream..Y’all already knew he was going to come hard on his last album, Love King. I’ve been waiting for this album and I can say I am not disappointed in his new single Love King.  “You don’t know me like dat, You don’t know me like dat.” ~ The-Dream…if only he were cuter..Thankfully money makes everyone look better. Love King is set to be released May 17, 2010.

Here is some new Shawnna (minus Ludacris..sad day). She is definitely one of the hottest female MC’s out. Her flow is tight. T-Pain goes in and this beat goes hard. Enjoy…..Nicki who??

Here’s some behind the scenes footage from the video shoot of B.o.B.’s single, “Nothin On You” which has taken off on the radio, I’m happy to report.  The Adventures of Bobby Ray is set to drop April 27th.

Here is the first single off of Fat Joe’s next album, “The Darkside.”

Entitled “Ha Ha,” Fat Joe recruits Young Jeezy to lay vocals on the chorus accompanied with a verse, along with Scoop Deville on the boards.

Sidebar: Just because Fat Joe got Jeezy and Scoop on this record does not mean it is good OR that his album will be remotely good, critically and in sales. However, you should give it a listen and/or download for the Jeezy feature alone. Link below, folks.

Wyclef tells FOX News that there are  lot more casualties in Haiti than the numbers give. There are still people under the rubble and he and his wife spent the entire day picking up bodies and he urges people to help by texting the word Yele to 501501 or going to Yele.org.

The long awaited Charles Hamilton project is finally here. Produced entirely by Charles himself, mixed by Woody from the west. He’s back, but whether you want to listen or not is up to you. I suggest giving it a download though.

I’m guessing this is a track off Luda & Shawnna’s upcoming Battle of The Sexes album, but I’m not too sure since the track does not feature Shawnna.  I should also note that Shawnna isn’t on DTP anymore, so I’m not too sure if that album is still even set to be released.  Anyhow, this is  pretty dope track.  Bangs like crazy I can tell you that.

Here’s a track from RZA and Pharoahe Monch going over The Black Keys production. This album features eleven artists that collaborated with The Black Keys and this is the lead single. For more info or to pre-order now, go here to support! The project, Blakroc is set for November 27th release.

The quick spitting, heavy hitting lyricists from Cleveland got together to speak about their upcoming album, Uni5.  Besides members of the press asking questions, fans were able to send in inquiries as well.  The group speaks on the difficulties of recording again, why this album is a double album, and what other Cleveland rappers they would like to work with.  Enjoy.

I just want to give everyone a heads up about CD that is probably going to get slept on.  Fashawn’s Boy Meets World dropped yesterday, and after giving it a good listen, I have to say this CD is nothing short of amazing.  Exile is superb on the production tip, bringing the same quality of excellent beats that you found on Blu’s CD Below The Heavens.  Fashawn is on point with his lyricism, and is quickly becoming a favorite of mine.  I didn’t use to fuck with the West Coast very hard, but with Fashawn, Pac Div and Blu all doing their thing, I could listen to the left coast all day.  So hit up Itunes and support that man Fashawn.  Wake up!

Here is some new music from Damian Marley and Lil Wayne. The track, entitled The Mission, is the official remix, seeing that Wayne was not on the original version. Link below folks.

I noticed a tagged version floating around last night, but I knew that this tagless version would be hitting the internet today, so I held off for all of you.

New Theophilus London really makes my day. I saw the video first then came across the MP3 over at GFCNewYork’s blog. Theophilus can be in any genre you want to put him in, but the fact that he has some dope rhymes is undeniable.
