I’m just sayin’…

…that in my opinion, Chris Rock is one of the greatest and most consistent black comedians of our time. Ain’t nobody left in the game, who can deliver a solid special, take a couple years off in Hollywood and then come right back to deliver another one like he never left. So many comedians hit it big with their stand-up and never bother to sharpen that tool once they get one-too many side roles in movies. Similar to rappers who spit real raw (sh!t that actually makes sense) and freestyle for hours on the radio, until they get a record deal and go limp dick! The thing I really admire bout Rock is his aggressiveness. To my knowledge, we only have a few aggressive comedians (Pryor, Mac, Lopez…just to name a few). After seeing Kill The Messenger this past weekend, I’m really glad to see Rock back in the game and claiming his throne from these clown-ass-no-joke-having jesters. With Russell Peters dropping tomorrow with his “brand spanking new” material, I really hope he’s got the flame to follow after Rock’s weekend massacre. The Rock’s in the motherfcuking building!

Side note: Been so busy with sh!t and haven’t had a minute to myself for anything. I been slacking on the beats, but been pushing Spooks though. Definitely got new material coming from him. We got a couple fresh ideas down for his super-themed mixtape, but not quite sure which one to run with 4 now. I just finished making this loop not too long ago today within the 10 minutes of spare time I had. Peep the loop and have a good one. 2 fingers!

Review: T.I. – Paper Trail

paper_trail_ti.jpg
Why do I only review shit that I like? The Kingggg is back! Mr. Harris Jr. picks up right where he left off in ’07. Kinda. The twist to the plot is that he’s been inking the paper a lot more than he ever had since his first release back in ’01. With Tip being on house arrest and dealing with some dark times in his life, he chose to channel his energy and creativity in a positive manner by writing his lyrics. Rumor has it, he hasn’t written a word since his debut I’m Serious and I for one can definitely tell the difference. It’s cool to get your Jay on once in a while, but after some time all your rhymes start to sound real watered down and plain nursery. Hence, you get the sing-a-long raps. The album starts off with a 808/synth heavy beat, courtesy of DJ Toomp, and Tip delivers 56 straight bars. After swimming through the intro, he rips right into another Toomp banger I’m Illy and slaughters it within the opening 4 bars. It’s very hard to not talk about every tracks on the album, cuz’ every single record is a hit. Whether its the swaggerific (smh) flow on Swagger Like Us, the feel good boasting over Live Your Life or the personal record  Ready For Whatever, Mr. Harris Jr. shows no signs of weakness. Production is heavvyyy with the likes of Just Blaze, KanYe West, DJ Toomp, Drumma Boy, Swizz Beatz and etc. And guest features include Jay-Z, KanYe West, Lil Wayne, Usher, Justin Timberlake, Swizz Beatz, John Legend, Ludacris (good looking!), B.O.B. and Rihanna. Sadly, this will be the first T.I. album I will own, though I should have copped King, I’m Serious and Urban Legend still. Great album, definitely a Grammy contender and I highly recommend everyone to make ya purchase this Tuesday and keep great music alive. Not to mention, one of the illest album covers I’ve seen since ever. Paper Trail drops Sept. 30th.

P.S. – If you low on flow, cop the album from Best Buy for 13.99 if you ain’t got that HMV/Amazon money.

Verse of the Week: T.I.

No surprise over here. Verse of Swagger Like Us

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

T.I.
Hah, you see? That’s right
Ay, you know see Weezy for the wordplay, Jeezy for the bird play
Kanyeezy for diversity and me for controversy
I’m a verse that’s picture perfect, only spit to serve a purpose
You ain’t livin what you kickin then you worthless
Lookin from the surface it may seem like I got reason to be nervous
Been observant, work to see if my adversity was worth it
Verse is autobiographical, absolutely classical
Last thing I’m worried ’bout is what another rapper do
Ain’t nobody hot as me
Even if they rap they ass off, blast off and have outstandin quality
Sell a lot of records, I’ll respect it and salute that
But spin real life on hot beats, I’m the truth at
You kick it like me, no exaggeration necessary
Livin revolutionary, nothin less than legendary
Gangsta shit hereditary, got it from my dad
Flow colder than February with extraordinary swag

Verse of the week: Andre 3000

Outkast feat Raekwon: Royal Flush

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

I had already posted this a while back, but this just needed to be addressed. I think all the rappers in the league right now owe  a lil’ or a lot to this man. I’m looking dead your way Weezy.


[Andre 3000]
Styles will change. They say change is dang-erous
As a King standing on the terrace
While his partner pointing up at the riflemen
Coward shooter, never know when your life will end
Then live like there ain’t no ‘morrow
And if one come then this the motto
Now I put message in bottle
