Lil Wayne - 6'7'' ft. Cory Gunz (Video)

2011 XXL Freshman List
Big K.R.I.T., CyHi Da Prynce, Diggy Simmons, Fred the Godson, Kendrick Lamar, Lil B, Lil Twist, Mac Miller, Meek Mill, YG and Yelawolf......Man they fucked up, I know they can't include everyone but where's Vado, Shawn Chrystopher, Dom Kennedy, Chip the Ripper, and Stalley? Fuck it throw in Trademark Da Skydiver too. I can tell you right now I don't fuck with Fred the Godson, Lil B, or YG. Meek Mill's ok, but there's more deserving rappers out there. Lil Twist should not be on this list yet either. Props to K.R.I.T., Kendrick, Cyhi, 3 of my favorite up-and-comers. Seems like you need a co-sign from Wayne, Kanye, or Rick Ross to be on this cover.

Drake Leaving Young Money?
At this point it's just rumors, but word is Drake wants to leaves Young Money and sign with Jay-Z's Roc Nation. Sources say there is a lot of gang activity and drugs surrounding Cash Money records and that Drake's not really the hood type. Also, his mother doesn't wanna see him around that stuff either. Jay-Z has reportedly been trying to buy out his contract from Birdman, so far with no success. But Wayne definitely doesn't want Drake to leave, so he'll most likely stay put. Drake just ended a highly successful European tour with Roc-Nation artist J-Cole, and Jay-Z was backstage for many shows, because Drake's Cash Money deals only includes records and not tours.
Rick Ross - Ashes to Ashes (video)
Ricky Rozay just got a little closer to Wiz Khalifa, taking his whole Maybach Music empire over to Warner records.

Wiz Khalifa - Taylor Gang (prod. by Lex Luger)
01 Taylor Gang feat Chevy Woods (Prod by Lex Luger).mp3
This track is legit, but if this is what we gon be hearing on the album, all the pre-"Black and Yellow" Wiz fans are gonna be real mad. Wiz got to where he is by killing tracks from producers like Johnny Juliano, who claims on Twitter that he can't even get through to Wiz's people anymore... "o wiz got an interview sayin he's looking for me? Can't watch it on my phone.. As if he doesn't follow me on twitter lol..been tryna get beats 2 wiz for months.. Even tried to book a flight to pgh to work on the album.. I guess @RealTaylorGang aint relay the msg" Not sayin Lex Luger doesn't make dope beats, Wiz just needs to realize what kind of songs he sounds good on and get back on some Deal or No Deal shit.
Snoop Dogg - Doggumentary Artwork

Diggy Simmons - Everybody Late (Feat. DOE) Produced by Jahlil Beats
New song from Rev Run's son, who in my opinion is one of the best teenage spitters out there. Not that Diggy doesn't have rap connects, but if he was on Lil Twist's beats, Twist would have to find a new job.

Today's instrumental of the day is Dirty Money's "Im Coming Home" with the hook sung by Skylar Gray. If you need inspiration check out J. Cole's version because Diddy can't rap for shit. Little slow in the beginning, but it speeds up. So someone show me some #micskillz and kill this.

Remaining #1 on the Not Top 10
Little old, but if u haven't seen this, give it a look. Roscoe Smith of UConn throws the ball up, with 11 seconds left in a tie game. Thanks to Kemba Walker, we ended up winning anyways. (Check out his buzzer beater below.) Congrats to the Huskies, moving up to #5 in the rankings this week. And congrats to Texas on beating #2 Kansas and climbing up to #7. UConn has beat 4 top 15 teams so far this year and only needs 3 wins to tie their win total from last year.

Wayne says Carter IV due in April
According to Rolling Stone, Wayne's new ablum will be all post-jail material with the exception of 3 or 4 songs that couldn't be forgotten. Only confirmed features so far are T-Pain & Kanye West, with more to come soon.
"Fastest Rap Ever"
Mac Lethal proves to haters that he doesn't speed up his videos and can in fact rap just as fast as anyone else. But I don't understand why rappers think this sounds good. You gotta spit to the beat bruh. Only Busta and Corey Gunz can pull that shit off.

Eminem's new labelmates cover XXL
"While it was no surprise to rap fans that Marshall Mathers was interested in signing the super lyrical crew of his former rap partner, Royce, Em’s deal with up-and-coming Southern rapper, Yelawolf, came as a surprise to the hip-hop nation. But, similar to Slaughterhouse, Em started out as a fan of quick-tongued Alabama MC. “I saw the video to ‘Pop the Trunk,’ and I was like, ‘Yo, this is fuckin’ dope,’ Em says. “I took the CD home that I had already had and started listening to the shit, and I was like, ‘Fuck, he can spit.’”
With the new Shady in tow, Eminem may be ushering in a return to wordplay in hip-hop, something that hip-hop heads have been missing from the genre for quite some time. “It just feels good to put lyricism in the forefront again, in my eyes,” Joell Ortiz says in the article. “Some of my heroes, when I came up rhymin’, were Biggie Smalls, Big L—rest in peace to all these—Big Pun. Dudes who were passionate about the way they put words together, the message they sent when they rhymed, and just bein’ ill with the pen. And I feel like this group, and Yelawolf and Em, are dudes who stand for that. And it’s good to see the pure form gettin’ shine again.”"
Hopefully this means well see more of Slaughterhouse, there supposed to drop sumthin in February. Here's a few of my favorites from Royce and friends
