South Park vs Kanye

South Park had a massive go at Kanye. It was very harsh.


This is how Kanye responded.

Crazy huh?

Asher Roth ft. Busta Rhymes - Lion's Roar

It's my considered opinion that Asher Roth isn't all that. I don't know how it's happened but he's been hyped to death. However, Busta joins him on 'Lion's Roar' and the track is totally worth listening to for Busta's verse alone. He goes in hard.

I confess that I'm not into Tupac at all and I'm not a huge fan of Biggie either.

I'm a sucker for these kinds of videos.

New Del The Funky Homosapien

Everyone's favourite underground rap legend cousin of Ice Cube has just put out Funk Man (The Stimulus Package). You know it's going to be good when you hear the chorus "I'm so tight I'm smelling myself".

Eminem - We Made You



Sounds like a pretty Eminem single. What do you think?

Busta Rhymes in his element

In front of a fisheye lens with a large wardrobe. Beautiful.

Wockin' Wayne

Not content with being the "best rapper alive", Lil Wayne is moving to rock. In an interview with Rolling Stone talking about his new rock album Rebirth, he gives this explanation for why he's tired of rap:
"The rock sh-- just comes from what my life is now. I've grown into this person," Wayne told the magazine. "I woke up one morning and had three or four women in my bed where I not only didn't know their last names, I didn't know the beginning letter of their first names. All I know is, they're the most beautiful women in the world, and I was in my own place, in whatever city I as in. And I could have thrown a dart at the map, and I'd probably have a place there too. I knew my driver was waiting downstairs for me. When my nose finally cleared from all the weed I had smoked, I smelled food in the kitchen and I knew it was my chef. Then I look on my phone and see a message and know it's from a popular woman everyone knows. And when I went in the studio that night, I couldn't just rap, 'Yeah, n---a ... .' "
So who knows what it's going to be like? I'm trying to get hold of 'Prom Queen' and 'Hot Revolver', the two tracks out so far, just so I can see what it's like.
