Here’s a quick update for ur Sunday morning. The original R. Les/Cassie collabo of “Addiction” has been stuck in my head all week after hearing it again on DJ B-Bop’s Gotta Stay Fresh Mixtape and I love the RMX even better since I’m a hip hop and Fabolous fan first. LoSo’s (Fabolous, “in case you ain’t kno so”, haha!) versatility definitely adds a nice look 2 the RMX. I think that if the song is marketed well, it has the commercial appeal to become a big radio hit! Down below are a couple more NEW Beyoncé trax… the subject matter is hard for me 2 relate 2, but I have a good feeling the ladies will love it! DL above and below! Enjoy!
11:27 - Wow, I forgot 2 add Usher’s LIVE SNL Performances from last nite, so peep them below as well! Pretty sweet, esp Ush’s dance solo @ the end of “Love In This Club”!
First, take a look at our boy, Dj MiniMaxX’s explanation of the Mash-Up/RMX he produced:
“This remix may go over some peoples heads i already know, lol. Lemme try n explain haha..Well i recently went 2 the Glow In The Dark Tour @ MSG and wow, the sickest show i think ill ever c in my life..4real..lol..Lupe opened the show spittin his verses from “The co0lest” over some song called “Let There Be Light” from this well known electro group named Justice whose music is pretty damn tyte..so0 after hearing it..i had 2 some how emulate it, so i did..just keep in mind this remix wasnt even my idea it came straight from Lupes head, i just made it into something audible haha..so0o sick” - Dj MiniMaxX
And my thoughts: SICK! I’m big into the electronic sound so some of you won’t like the sound of the mash-up, but I’m really feelin’ it and like Dj MiniMaxX says Lupe does his version of “The Coolest” over this in the Glow In The Dark Tour… damn, I can’t wait. Def DL this above and judge for yourself all u Lupe and electronic fans! Big ups 2 Dj MiniMaxX! Enjoy!
1. Kanye West
2. Jay-Z
3. Lil’ Wayne
4. Rick Ross
5. Snoop Dogg
6. 50 Cent
7. Lupe Fiasco
8. Young Jeezy
9. Andre 3000
10. T.I.
No surprise 2 me as Kanye West was named MTV’s #1 Hottest MC of 2008 after the success of Graduation catapulted the Chicago MC into super-duperstardom. Haha. Kanye’s on another planet right now and very deserving of the #1 spot IMHO. Not 2 many beefs w/ the list IMO as well, although I think I’d switch T.I. and Dre 3000 and 50 and Lupe. Yes, I’m biased on Lupe but his star is quickly on the rise whereas Curtis’ is quickly on the fall. Still I can see the argument as 50 and Snoop Dogg still have more commercial appeal than Lupe at this point. Oh yeah, Rick Ross #4?!?! I hear they’ll be re-airing the special on MTV 2nite (debuted yesterday) so check ur local listings if ur interested. Below you can find a couple nice R&B trax by 2 of the most talented females of the genre - Mrs. Tibs Jay-Z & Jennifer Hudson. (I usually don’t go 2 pics in a post but I think u can forgive me on this 1 :D) The trax are really nice listens tho and you shouldn’t hesitate to DL the slower R&B jams below! Enjoy!
Our boy Mr. Music aKa Phenamenon just dropped this hot summer joint featuring Teron James, so with no delay check that right below. Get ready for major hits from this rapper/producer/engineer - Mr. Mutha@#$%&$@ Music!
Comin’ thru real late 2nite and luckily it wasn’t an urgent day in NEW music but there are still some cuts from some of ur favs. in R&B and hip hop. The 2 trax from the batch I liked is a hot, uptempo track from R&B singer Mario and the “Where The Cash At RMX” by Swizzy & Foxy B. Warrants mentioning tho that the original is better.. not really feelin’ Foxy’s verse but the beat and Swizzy are on point. Check out The Game & Keyshia vid premiere below as well. Enjoy!
The Five One put out another new hit to add to The Green Complex album called, “Silly How We Ever”, which you can download below. Also enjoy an older hit from The Five One called “Revenge”. I personally love these two tracks, because I feel anyone can appreciate them. “Revenge” is a raw track, because it paints such vivid imagery and has a real mellow flow.
I wanted 2 share the final, RED ape cover of N.E.R.D.’s Seeing Sounds, an album that I am getting increasingly excited for with all their hot trax that have leaked already! Since we all love art work up here at GWHH, I had 2 share this album cover that I really like, and so there’s no confusion, I don’t got a new N.E.R.D. track in case that’s what u were thinking. Instead, you can peep 5 solid NEW trax, the first one by Mickey Factz and Lauryn Hill… a great mellow track that is lyrically on point. I’m def feelin’ that 1 along with the NEW T.I. verse and 3 NEW R&B trax below! Peep them (and our 2 EXCLUSIVE MIXTAPES from yesterday) with a lil’ scrolling below! Enjoy!
***NOTE: At the time now and for the next few hours, zShare is currently down and you can’t DL or upload files at the moment so I did this batch of trax with Mediafire.
R&B fans rejoice! My boy, DJ B-Bop just came thru with his latest mixtape, spotlighting the best of the underground R&B crooners on the come-up, mixed with some established stars like Ryan Leslie, Craig David, The Dream, Taio Cruz, & MORE - all blended beautifully 2gether for ur listening pleasure! I’ma bump this a lot for sure and get my ears familiar with some of these virtual unknown R&B singers, and u should 2 cuz maybe you’ll find someone new that u like! I got thru it once already and its got my overwhelming approval; any R&B fan would enjoy this so DL it below! Just in time for ur finals and the beginning of a HOT summer!! Special thanks 2 the fella DJ B-Bop for the love! Enjoy!
