Music Video: Trae Tha Truth Feat. MDMA, Lupe Fiasco, Big Boi, Wale & Wiz Khalifa

Although this was a summer track, it’s still dope and easily one of the best music videos I’ve seen in a long time. Trae really is Tha Truth, as is the crew he threw on for this track. Peep that Bulls starter jacket Wiz is rockin’, though.

Rick Ross’ #RichForever Mixtape Set The Bar For 2012

If you read the tracklisting and thought classic mixtape, then you thought correctly. If you haven’t heard the tape yet, you need to download it immediately and listen to it because it’s good. It’s really, really good. The tape is complete with dope Rozay sounding beats, crazy hooks and verses, and an amazing list of features. It’s not even 10 days into the new year of 2012 and Ross has set the bar extremely high for any rappers that are trying to compete with him in 2012. Chess, not checkers. God Forgives, I Don’t, Rozay’s new album is coming soon. If he gave out this mixtape worth of dope music for free – imagine what he’s going to cook up in the studio when he’s going to charge us for it?! Download link for the project and music video for Stay Schemin’ with Drake and French Montana are below.

Is Ivy Blue Carter (Jay & Beyonce’s Baby Girl) Named After The Illuminati?!

By now you’ve heard that Jay-Z and Beyonce had their first child together over the weekend and they named their baby girl Ivy Blue Carter. The name is a little nontraditional so of course you can leave it up to the internetz to begin the rumors and speculations.

The logical speculation: Ivy is in reference to the Roman numeral IV (4) as that is Hov and Bey’s favorite number. They were both born of the 4th of their respective months, Beyonce even named her latest album 4, and they were married on the 4th. And then Blue is in reference to Jay’s favorite color (my favorite hue is Jay-Z blue, the Yankees are navy blue, and he named so many of his albums Blueprint).

The Illuminati speculation: well just see the Tweet below…

The Internet Spoofs Kanye’s Twitter Rant About New Company “DONDA”

The great Twitterer that is Kanye West, went out a little major rant the other night when he tweeted about everything from fashion designing in Europe, to reading pornos and drawing Nikes in the 2nd grade, and then to even revealing a new company he’s creating called DONDA – named after his late mother. The tweets make for great morning commute reading material but if you’re short on time to read 200 of Yeezy’s tweets, check out this funny Jimmy Kimmel commercial where they spoof his tweets and company. To bring his Twitter rant even more to life, a 5-year old drew out all his tweets. HILARIOUS! And then make sure after the jump to check out another funny animated video spoofing DONDA.

Video: Rapper Pill Explains Why He Left Maybach Music

I’m not exactly sure what Warner and Rick Ross had intentions to do with Pill, but it certainly wasn’t what he had hoped. They basically wasted dude’s time. Yes, he was put on the album, but what else? Like he stated in the video, Ross never pushed for anything of his the way that he did for Wale’s and Meek Mill’s. No where near it.

“I never really went on tour with them; I never really did anything with them,”

That’s the truest statement throughout the entire video. Pill is from the ‘A’ and that’s where he resides, but he never received any kind of invites to attend events. Yes, Ross is a “boss,” which in return makes it his job to make sure that his “employees” get those kinds of things.

Any chance Pill joins his four Freddie Gibbs over at C.T.E. (tell me that wouldn’t start some even more beef)?
