Here's some words from Lucky a/k/a Mark Milly:

"By now, everyone who is familiar with the internet or any kind of technology should know what TWITTER is!

Dukwon Feat. Killer Mike // Polo Ho

(Click picture for download)

Honestly, I've never even heard of this guy until like 3 days ago.
As an avid RLP lover, I had to hear the track though.
It's not bad. Definitely some southern club banger type shit though.
Something to stunt in the car with for real.
And it's almost summer time...

Charles Hamilton Feat. Crooked I // Tears Of Fire


(Click picture for download)

CH & Crooked I both go in on this track. I must say, it's pretty damn dope.


Casey Boys // Gin And Juice

(Click picture to download)


The twins Brian and Brandon of Jagged Edge fame are releasing their own project soon.
I don't think this is a single but it's a track nonetheless.
I like the West Coast feel to the track, but I'm not a big fan of it.

Articulate // Dopeman Freestyle

Articulate recently recorded this dope ass "Dopeman" freestyle.
(My graphic btw)
I got put on dude when my younger cousin did a photoshoot for him.
The man is a monster, definitely somebody to listen out for.

Assassin // Same Ting Again


(Click picture to download)

Reggae artist Assassin's new track "Same Ting Again",
as he says in the beginning of the track,
"Music with meaning, songs of substance and social commentary"
And it proves to be that. It's socially aware and he accomplished his goal.

Young Chris // Class Of My Own

(Click picture for download)

Remember that group "Young Gunz" that was on Roc-A-Fella a couple years back?
This is one half of the duo, Young Chris. As the title "Class Of My Own" suggests, he's
at least trying to be in his own class these days.
He brings the heat to this freestyle over Asher Roth's "Lark On My Go-Kart" track.
I must say, I was very surprised that the track was good.

U-N-I // Land Of The Kings

(Click picture for download)

YO and Thurzday have done it again.
This track is crazy. "Land Of The Kings", if you haven't heard it yet,
LISTEN!

More Updates For Everybody // Something Special

I know, I know...
It's been about what? A month since my last post?
Maybe less, anyway that's not the point!!!

So me being from Baltimore, I see a lot of artists with potential on a regular basis.
Unfortunately though,
This area (DMV-B) as I like to call it
Has a lot of issues as far as people getting put on.

When I say artists, I mean ARTISTS.
Writers, Producers, Photographers, Rappers, Singers, etc.

It is my plan to start a site that will showcase and help artists from the DMV-B area
to connect with each other, learn from each other, and find out information on major labels as well as local labels that are looking for new talent.

Instead of competing and only the
Wale's or Tabi Bonney's or Bossman's or Mully Man's
getting their fair shake at fame, why not unite and help get everybody there?

Interested? Leave a comment or E-Mail me at:

Technology Tuesday // Skateboard Chassis x iPhone Update

General Motors Sequel Chassis

This is the "E-Flex" concept base. It's also known as the skateboard chassis because of the way it will be built and the way the drivetrain will work.



This is one of the reasons I decided to stop pursuing the Automotive field two years ago. I know there will be technology that will make people obsolete. People can always cook food though...



See that red circle at the top? That would be Apple trying to make up for having the sorriest phone ever. The little dotted circle in the middle of the red one is a front-facing video camera. Apparently, they will be adding this on at some point in the future so that video conferencing and video calls will be able to be made. Another new feature that they will be adding is the morphing interface. If you are jogging or on a shaky bus, don't worry about hitting the wrong button anymore, they will get BIGGER so you don't miss.


Cool shit right? -Right.

Clipse, Tyga, Jeremih // Single Downloads

http://rphiphop.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/tyga-lil-wayne.jpg

Tyga Feat. Lil' Wayne // Lay You Down
(Click Picture For Download)

Might possibly my favorite Tyga song. Considering I don't normally like his music.
The beat is the truth with a nice rock feel to it. Tyga went in on this jont. Wayne spit with no AT on this jont, and his verse is hot.

Clipse Feat Kanye West // Kinda Like A Big Deal
(Click picture for download)

Kanye ate the track up. The Clipse redeemed themselves for their previous lackluster releases. This track is hot as shit.



Jeremih // Birthday Sex
(Click picture for download)

The song speaks for itself. If you haven't heard it. You should listen. It's catchy and makes you think about who's birthday is coming up soon so you can get it in to this song. =]


Enjoy!
More later.

Big ups to Mark Milly for letting me know I put the wrong picture in there!

"You can be anything in the world but you still ain't shit"
-E Dot DizZy

That line right there, sends chills down my spine. That's how I feel about people sometimes.

Now multiply every bar in his songs times the effectiveness of that one... You have a bamboozle free mixtape. There is ONE hook on this mixtape. So for the sake of an argument, we will just say it is hook free. The point of this tape is to prove that lyrics are what matter. Hooks are just what they imply. They hook you into the song and reel you in. Once your there, you get stuck with bullshit lyrics and as he says himself, four lines in a song might be hot.

I only listen to intro tracks when I plan on doing a review, and I can honestly say that from the into to the outro, I didn't have to skip anything. Most people will give you two hot lines a verse... I can honestly say DizZy brought the heat on this tape. Every line MAKES SENSE (Wayne's don't) and he doesn't claim to be the king of hip-hop or any of the normal self-satisfying lyrical bullshit that other artists do.

True hip-hop is the only thing I pulled away from this. Oh, and better quotes than a Drake mixtape.

Here's some incentive to download this tape.

"My biggest fear is failure / So any sign of failure and my mind goes rebellious"

"I'm not obligated to deal with the bullshit / So fuck you and everybody that you fool with"

"The number has shrunk on the number I'm cool with / Because the bigger the number the more foolishness"


Oh and uh, he isn't afraid to rap over any beat. Diva, Rehab, Let The Beat Build, Move, Successful, Stand Up Guy, ETC!!! He kills em all.
