Review: B.o.B – The Adventures of Bobby Ray
I know it’s hard for rappers to wait when they see a fleet of Bentleys glistening on the horizon, but trust me, in hip-hop patience is a virtue. When a rapper is catapulted to fame overnight, without taking the time to truly lay down a foundation, nine-times-out-of-ten they watch that success »
Album Review: Little Brother – LeftBack
All good things must come to an end. This is the case with the duo (once trio) and hip-hop legends Little Brother. It’s sad to see them go, but I know all of us here will be looking forward to their solo careers as they grow as artists. It was cool to be a fan »
Review: Murs & 9th Wonder – Fornever

Review: Ludacris – Battle Of The Sexes
Ludacris to me was always the new Busta Rhymes.

Seriously, never. Or a Busta one. They were always »
Review: Freeway & Jake One – The Stimulus Package
The Roc-A-Fella creed during the early 2000’s was simple: dominate the game. Like Wu-Tang and No Limit before them, the leader(s) of the pack were easily distinguishable. But at the end of the day, it was always a team sport. Jay-Z, the MVP and future all-star, was accompanied by a roster of talented role players »
