Smurf The God X Ooouuu|Video Bomb w/o Rate

                I have not been into any of the freestyles that have been dropping for Young M.A's hit single "Ooouuu" It's as if she has already claimed it and delivered it. But none the less artist are still gonna hop on a fire beat and try and put they finesse on it. I actually indulged in Smurf The God's rendition and lets just say I'm glad I did. This  video bomb detonated almost a week ago and while the video is just the homies chilling at the studio while Smurf delivers his bars it gets the job done. I love the fact that despite sticking to the most part to the way M.A delivers it, he actually gave me that hard Florida vibe. I could hear the song go from north to south as he spit his verses. I think you guys should indulge and press play below to check out one of Lacosca front men as he laces this popular track.

Trinidad James X Bankroll Fresh| Daddy D Video Bomb w/o Rate

       

  Initially I was thinking it was a sick joke when I saw it featured Bankroll Fresh but once I actually saw him in the video, I was instantly sad. Even after death he still lives. That is one thing I can say I love about music. Even after the musician dies, their music lives forever. This particular song is on my current playlist and is definitely added to the favorites vault. Trinidad James won me over about two years ago. And while others may not like his style, I appreciate it. I have to admit it was rather creepy to see Bankroll in the video. I know it most likely was made prior to his demise but given it was recently released makes it that much of a reminder that he is no longer making music. I did not include a rate with this video bomb given the artist are both well known. Check out the latest Trinidad James visuals for "Daddy D" with an eerie yet appreciated last look at Bankroll Fresh.

Musical Dopeness| Jamie Foxx a.k.a Past (Future's Father)

You would be surprised were you would be able to find the most dopest music content. What do you get when you mix  Direct TV commercials and football stars?  You get the most epic fake music video courtesy of the Manning Brother's iconic "Football on your Phone". So what happens when Verizon teams up with comedian, artist, and actor Jamie Foxx ?! More exceptional musical dopeness. I don't know why Future can't catch a break of people imitating his musical style but it is interesting and entertaining to see all the different spins there is to this guy's persona. Jamie Foxx is a fool and acts like a real old timer, muttering words and even dancing with a cane. The "I Got Verizon" song sounds a lot like Future's hit "Commas" and  the commercial was shown during Game 7 of the NBA Finals. It's no wonder companies use music to help sell a product. And with Sprint's recent snag of the "Verizon Guy" that use to say "Can you here me now?" Verizon took shots back by having Foxx finish his ad libs by saying " It ain't about can you hear me now, it's about can you see me now" which pretty much sealed the deal. Check out Jamie Foxx below as Past, Future's dabbin father in the Verizon commercial.

Big Pun x DMX x Mos Def Cypher| #TBT

8 minutes and 34 seconds of pure Hip Hop gold! These are always fun to go back and review, the style was fresh, the chains were dope and the music was real. I appreciated coming across this video, so I thought I'd share a lil look into what Hip Hop use to be like. The greats are doing their damn thing and this one. #PeepThePlay they lit! Look at all the damn bottles and cups! lol

              

Top 10 Soundtracks X The Top 5 Best Music Biopics

Ever watched a movie over because of the music? Hell I have and I am not ashamed to admit it. I love movie soundtracks. I feel like a soundtrack makes or breaks the impact of the movie. Were the right tracks chosen for the right scenes? Will this song help tell the story better than words? I'm sure a lot goes into choosing the music for movies. I couldn't think of a better Top 10 to do and  I'm positive a few people will also agree that a few of these soundtracks were dope and I hope I have you guys having a movie night and paying much closer attention to the soundtracks. More than my love for movie soundtracks I love Biopic movies because they are based off true events. Resting below the Top 10 is 5 musically influenced Biopics that I love! Check those out and feel free to comment and tell your Top 10 and 5 if you have any. Enjoy!

Musical Dopeness|MIC LOWRY X Three R&B Covers

       

Musical Dopeness usually always leads me to international territory. I stumbled across these guys while on one of my many musical journeys, MIC LOWRY is a vocal harmony group out of Liverpool, England. Comprised of five memebers, Ben Sharples, Kaine Ofoeme, Akia Jones, Delleile Ankrah, and Michael Welch. Their genre you wonder?  R'n'B Soul. Please believe me when I say they give me soul, life, and water. They are handsome and they all blend so well together. Not to mention I feel like their name is a play on Bad Boy's Character played by Will Smith "Mike Lowry" so I dugs that. And the way they transitioned between each song. My Goodness! I get such a great feeling listening to them. I like Tory Lanez and Bryson Tiller and even got reconnected with the voice of Teedra Moses but this quintet did all three songs justice. I was pleased. I hope to see a lot more of them really soon. They're what my late nights and wine been missing.Don't believe me? Check out this group kill three covers at the same damn time below.

Project Youngin X War Stories Video Bomb| W/ Rate

Growth is always a good thing and Project Youngin demonstrates progressive growth. This track is heart felt, realistic, and proves he is more than a "Project Youngin".  A year ago I would have said Youngin would need a feature to draw my attention or have dope visuals but these visual were not flashy and not in the hood. He gave me a simple video with a deeper message. I liked how the production of the video came out and Bungy Clips did his thing as far as production. The lyrical context was finally there for me. It was relatable and showed that like everyone else he goes through things. He has hopes and dreams. Expectations for Youngin? More songs that grab at the heart. This is by far my favorite track from Project Youngin and I hope that he continues to evolve as a more lyrical artist. Check out the visuals for War Stories Freestyle below as well as my rate for this entry.

Song Bomb: JF X King Phy| Fever W/ Rate

Produced by Chris Prythm, the production is the foundation that sets the tone for the Hip Hop vibe that Jack Fletcher embodies. Featuring "Trappin Outta Space" mastermind King Phy Da Beast. The mash up between both artist couldn't be more opposite but King Phy took on an entirely different sound in this track. It was as if Jack Fletcher gave a little of his artistry to bring another persons inner hip hop vibe to the table.Given the countries on going battle with the Black Lives Matter movement and the countless American civilians being assassinated by those who are sworn in to serve and protect us seems like the fuel behind the track. What Fever are we exactly trying to catch and or avoid. Is it the Fever of rising up or is it the fever of those that are sleeping during such a prevalent time. The cover art for the track is dope. It depicts a riot participant with a gas mask and a strong Black Power fist as officers stand off in the background in protective gear. These past two years have been the most racially driven with the murders of unarmed black people. We will never forget Oscar Grant, Trayvon Martin, Tamir Rice, Sandra Bland, Mike Brown, Eric Garner and countless other's that have lost their lives. One day we will rise up above our crooked government and we will win. All these deaths will not be in vain. Jack Fletcher serves a double dose of lyrical content as well as witty  punch lines that will definitely have the wheels in the brains of listeners turning. It is political, it is raw, it is current. This is what hip hop is about story telling while bringing awareness and I believe Jack does that time and time again. It is never something you've heard before he is always up on the times. I want all who have taken time to read this entry to really listen to the words of Fletcher and really get into his message. Check out the audio below a long with my rate for this track.

Princess Nokia| Young Girls|Video Bomb W/o Rate

Destiny Frasqueri formally known as Wavy Spice, who also performs in a collaborative duo known as  Princess Nokia released a video entitled Young Girls almost a year ago. The thing I love most about music is that it's never dated. You can always stumble across something new and bring it back. I was so glad to discover such a precious gem. "Young Girls" feature young women and girls all of different racial backgrounds living a peaceful carefree life, in a serene oasis. You can gather your own perception of the video but I am glad to see the light tones fade to darker tones. The tribal attire and paint markings upon their faces is like that of a village. The vibe of the song mixed with the visuals puts you just in a dope vibe. I am so glad I found this video. This is woman empowerment if I ever did see it. Please check out the dope visuals. And check out more from Destiny Frasqueri.
