“I don’t really feel like I have fans at this point. You don’t really have fans until you have people willing to pay for your product. My plan right now is just to get as many people as I can possibly get to hear the music.” – Danny Brown C’mon! What other rappers out there [...]
Main Attrakionz is a rap group hailing from Oakland, California and they recently released a lengthy 15 track project only a few months after coming out with “Blackberry Ku$h“, an EP released conveniently on 4/20. This hip hop collective consists of Squadda B and MondreM.A.N, who have both found success when the time came to make [...]
I feel I should preface this review by admitting that I’ve been a Kanye West fan ever since I heard “Jesus Walks”, and while I don’t admire Jay-Z‘s musical prowess quite as much as that of his protege, I have mad respect for him as a rap legend. Both of them brought their A-game to the table this [...]
This post is a “QuickPick”. QuickPicks are my attempt at getting all of the music that’s sent to me that I like (or just music I like but have no words for because it’s so awesome), out into the dubya dots. Any time I get sent music that I like I “star” it in Gmail [...]
This will be big. Mainly because of those two heavyweights of Jay-Z and Kanye West at the epicentre of the album, but also because it’ll promise to throw up some really great songs and after the first track we heard from it (“H.A.M”) garnered a lukewarm reception, the second track “Otis” got a much better [...]
Kendrick Lamar seems to understand the importance of a good album cover. For his newest release, “Section.80″ (Top Dawg Entertainment), Lamar picked an image that included the main themes in his music: a marijuana-filled pipe, bullets, a bible, and (of course) a condom box. This schizophrenic mix of imagery isn’t an accident; hell, the Compton-based [...]
Hip-Hop is something that’s rarely posted around these parts but it’s a beast that when it is posted, you know it’s good. Big K.R.I.T. has been on my radar for a few months now but it’s only been in the last two or so that I’ve been getting into his music, mainly due to love [...]
Often derided, whiteboyrappaz never really get a fair shake, and when I say whiteboyrappaz I don’t mean Eminiem and Atmosphere, I mean dudes like Hoodie Allen who’s actually brimming with talent and creativity but because he doesn’t rap about guns, bitches, and bling then he’s passed over. That kinda thing happens with ALL types of [...]

If you’re confused by me posting Beyoncé videos on the site, then just check this out. I’m weak, WEAK I TELL YA!
Buy the album from Amazon – Vinyl | MP3 | CD The rap scene in the US is slowly waking up. With the immediacy of information sharing over the internet, the decline of conventional album sales, and the fact that anyone with a Macbook can cook up sounds for others to hear, the game is [...]
Something about summer always gets me thinking about songs that sound like summer, but I’m not the only one. Earlier today Tyler the Creator dropped his Summer Camp Mix on the Odd Future web site. The mix is full of tunes that just feel like heat rays beating down on you while you’re chilling on your backyard patio [...]
