Real Talk 5

Payday Friday as usual, you know how it is, here's a few choice cuts to get you through the weekend..

DukeDaGod, Juelz Santana, J.R. Writer & Hell Rell - More Than Music
So amid all this noise (Cam'ron getting outed as leader?!), DukeDaGod breaks off with another one as the Dipset movement continues, "More Than Music Pt. 2" just dropped in the streets and I'm lovin' every minute of it. Everything you'd expect production-wise, but the younger Dips come up hard on this tape. Cha-ching!

Hell Rell - B***h Looka Here
Ruger Rell ya'll, still killin' it! "For The Hell Of It" is gonna make my summer. This one comes off Rell's mixtape with Big Mike, "Addicted To The Game Pt. 1", a freestyle over Rich Boy's beat, slayin' 'em with every line! While we're at it, props to Rich Boy's choice of production (Polow, Brian Kidd), ALWAYS on point.

Soulja Slim - Wright Me
Had to put this one up. Caught it on a forum a few weeks back and it got me and a couple co-workers wound up in discussion about the No Limit glory days. R.I.P. Magnolia Slim!

Devin the Dude feat. Andre 3000 & Snoop Dogg - What A Job
Devin the Dude is one of my favorites. Both as a rapper and a person, the Dude's just got his own style that nobody can touch. "Waitin' To Inhale" dropped at the end of March and if you don't have it yet you need to go out and buy this record serious. Super soulful production by Chuck Heat, fits all three MC's perfectly.

Timbaland, Jay-Z, & Justin Timberlake - Laff At Em (Give It To Me Remix)
This one's been floating around (including on the aforementioned "Addicted To The Game Pt. 1" mixtape), Hov proves he's still on top of the world, even dropping the Biggie reference. Might just be me, but seems Timbaland's using this track to take aim at every other super producer out there?


And don't forget to check out $ELECT & SOB3R on the decks tonight from 8PM to 12PM at Urbano. Good food, good tunes, what's not to like?
