VADO “LARGE ON THE STREETS” MUSIC VIDEO DIRECTED BY ARM & WILL PU from FM15 FILMS on Vimeo. “coke like Tiger Woods, fuck with too much white…” Vado might be a serious problem. He may be the silent killer on the rise. The track is off the Swine Flu mixtape. Serious bars, serious video. Vado vs Santana? Watcha’ think?             
Next to the Relapse and Blackout 2 which I can’t wait to get in to next week this is the dopest album out from the Pink Panther. If there is anyone who can make a comeback and build himself back up like it ain’t sh!t, its gotta be Killa Cam. Ever since he started dropping his videos and singles, I honestly haven’t heard or read anyone mention the name Capo what-so-ever. And what I love the most about this release is, he never once mentions any of those guys names, nor does he need to. The album is exactly whatchu expected from Cam and a bit more.The man always has the dopest intros to his albums and this one by far takes the cake (or atleast ties with Come Home With Me). The 23 deep (including skits) disc has production and features from all new-comers. Majority of the album’s production is handled by Skitzo and Araabmuzik, who certainly hold it down for Mr. Spacely Sprocket. Whether its the sinster sound of Cookin’ Up or the soulful funk sound of Silky (No Home) LOL!, Cam glides over the beats and has plently of witty word play and flows to feed. The owner of the Dipset returns to claim his Harlem throne back from the imposters and continues to remind everyone why he is the original trendsetter. Crime Pays is out today and available at your local record shop. Support great music! Jump the gun to peep some joints off the album.
Hate it or love it, Crime Pays is well on its way and is looking great. Everything I’ve heard has been a banger and the tracklist seems very promising. Heard Jim pulled around 38k the first week. Ouch! Cam should be on the Angie Martinez show next week. Look out for that. Peep the tracklist after the jump.
1. So the rumors about Johnny Depp (as The Riddler) being in the sequel to Dark Knight have been all false. The chances of us seeing the next Bat-flick won’t even surface till 2012-ish or so. Nolan has thought about the sequel but that definitely won’t be his next project. All that aside, if they don’t get Depp for that role, it’ll be a damn shame. At this point, I really can’t see anyone else filling those shoes except for Scissorhands himself. Anything else is just a G-D-Shame. No Depp, no Riddler. 2. Roman deserved that win and the entire crowd knew it. Beltran went in, but that split decision was a d!ck move. 3. Keri Hilson‘s album, In a New World, smashes Jimmy’s Pray IV Reign. I expected a lot 4m Jim this time around. You know its a problem when you’re being compared to a R&B album.

1. Movie Soundtracks/Scores - I’ve been on OSTs for a minute and have been following some of the greatest heavyweights of all time (Hans Zimmer, Jon Brion, Ennio Morricone, Herbie Hancock, Jimmy Page <- mainly for Death Wish) but now I’ve found a new hobby…listening to the score before watching the movie. “…its like, makes you 10x more higher!” Check out AFI’s Top 25 movie scores (out of 250 nominated) of all time.
Can’t wait for Killa season. A little sneak peak at the XXL site. Crime Pays will be droppin’ April 21st. Heavy!
1. I’ve been waiting for Saigon to drop since ’04 and ain’t sh!t popped. Yeah he gave us Warning Shots, Return of the Yardfather, Moral of the Story, DJ Whoo Kid x JB Present: Abandon Nation…but SO WHAT?!? In my opinion, Just shifted his focus to Jay Electronica. Heck, I’ve seen more pics, interviews and footage of them two together than I’ve seen of Sai and Blaze. This album is long over due and we sure as hell deserve it this year (same goes for 2. The Oscars and the Grammys are just events held by rich folks to give out awards to their rich BFF friends. 3. Juelz Santana should have been where Lil Wayne is today. We all know before Weezy popped off, Bandana was the topic of discussion everywhurr after What the Games been Missing dropped. I can’t feel my face was suppose to come ages ago, and somewhurr along the release the project disappeared (along with Juelz) and Weezy became the new face of the game. If only Juelz wasn’t caught in the house drama BS, he would have had it just a good or even greater than Weezy. He deserved it and still does. Aaeh! 4. As an ex Dipset fan, I miss the homie Cam. He was our Harlem dude that we took for granted and instead we gave passage to all the wrong fools. Sure Cam’s style was hella childish at times, but he was swaggin’ waay before ya’ll even knew the word existed (SPLASH!). “…Snow so White, only thing missin’ are 7 dwarves.” Wow! 5. Jimmy is the new Cam. And he’s just as funny. BAWLINNNN’!!!!!!!!!!!!! (<— Jimmy talking greasy. Face expression @ 0:30 = Priceless) |
