Well Coachella has started this weekend. Â What is Coachella well just one of the biggest U.S. music festivals that takes place on the West Coast. Â A 3 day event that has bands and artists from all genres. Â Rock, Pop, Hip Hop all of the bases are covered. Â Kosha Dillz has decided to make a track about losing his ticket for the event. Â Take a listen to how he turns not having a ticket into a dope track.
One my favorite songs from Frank Ocean off of his latest album "channelORANGE" was the uptempo banger called 'Lost'. I've had this song & the second half of 'Pyramids' on repeat thousands of times over the past few months. Glad to see that just like the 'Pyramids' record they decided to move on a visual to "Lost" as well. Check out the brand new video directed by Francisco Soriano as they capture live performance video of the R&B singers travels around the world.
Watch this one to the end (hint)! Raekwon drops another hot one off his "Lost Jewlery" EP. The video presented above is for "To The Top" (featuring Maino).
The World Famous DJ Jazzy Jeff finishes up his Asian tour with his crew after hitting various cities in Thailand & finishing up in Tokyo. There was a short scare for everyone when the world famous DJ played a game of 'Where's Waldo?' after he went missing almost before showtime in Japan. Not sure if it's a joke or not, but in a rather ironic twist of things the cameras catch DJ Jazzy Jeff in a record store with an image of someone else impersonating DJ Jazzy Jeff & selling his mixes in Japan.
Miami-Dade's LMS (Lyrical ManSlaughter, Last Man Standin, Light-Minded Souldier) kills on stage... and in rap battles. Good for us listeners; but bad (very bad) for his the next target. Next target: Lil Weezy. Lyrical shots fired - "No Jeggings!" The Lil Wayne vs. Miami [Heat] saga continues... Check out the blazer below.
Raekwon launches the first official video from his free "Lost Jewlry"EP with this Scram Jones produced joint "Came Up". The black & white video interpolates classic gangsta footage from the St. Valentine's Day massacre while the big boss Raekwon gets fly with the lyricism & then slides off in his luxury vehicle.
Do not attempt to send us a message about the correct spelling of "Jewelry".....Raekwon makes it clear with this brand new free ep he just served up to the fans that the correct spelling for his musical recipe is "Jewlry". Who cares. All that matters is if Shallah Raekwon is continuing to hit us with that heat. Considering producers like Scram Jones, Buckwild, Checkout this free 12-song offering from one of the senior Wu-Tang generals as he gives us an appetizer before his upcoming album "F.I.L.A." later this year. Click on the artwork or the link below to download the project. Complete tracklisting under the hood....
Before the album dropped, there is always the mixtape. Raekwon is gearing up to release his F.I.L.A. album but decides to delight fans with his 'Lost Jewelry' EP. The 11-track collective features...
The above clip is video captures Raekwon's Listening Party for "The Lost Jewlry" EP held at PNC Radio. Saw some things: Several sponsors recognized at the end (money). Chef received well among the crowd of well-wishers gathered (power) and on the mic where he admonished the up-and-coming emcees to NOT to think too highly of themselves (respect). Check it out.
Raekwon keeps it soulful with these darts he's been throwing out every few days. This time he finds inspiration from Gladys Knight's classic "Neither One Of Us" as fans get ready for him to drop his "Lost Jewelry" EP on January 8th. Makes me want to head on down to Gladys Knights Chicken & Waffles in downtown Atlanta right now..... "We'll Break Your Legs For Steak & Eggs...." - Raekwon
