Ladies and Gentlemen, 50 Cent!

Curtis Jackson is probably jumping around like crazy right now. 50 owes Eminem big now, not only for signing him but for helping him win his first Grammy. That's right 50 Cent no longer has to live moments like this because he finally got his Grammy. So crack a bottle Fiddy, you deserve it.

Bullsh!* Version

I was really looking forward to this performance, too bad the censorship at CBS almost ruined it. I mean I understand having to edit out curse words, but does the edit really have to take over an entire verse? If I could find an unedited version of this it would be great, although it probably will not happen. Thank You Rapradar

In Case You Missed It

Because the Grammys focus on the performances instead of the awards I thought I'd let you know which rappers went home happy.

Best Rap Solo Performance:
Jay-Z - D.O.A.

Best Rap Song:
Jay-Z, Rihanna, Kanye West - Run This Town

Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group:
Eminem, Dr. Dre, 50 Cent - Crack A Bottle

Best Rap Album:
Eminem - Relapse

While I'm not sure I would consider Relapse last year's best rap album I'm happy for Mr. Mathers. I'm also happy Drake didn't win, put an album out first brah.





Oh yea......FUCK Taylor Swift

The Saints Are Coming

If you have never seen the original Boondock Saints you have been missing out. No worries though, the Saints are coming back to a movie theater near you for one night only. The Saints are celebrating their 10th anniversary on March 11th in select theaters, though if I found showings in San Antonio and Austin I bet you can find it easily. Tickets go on sale Monday (Feb. 1st) to those on their newsletter and Friday (Feb. 5th) for the rest of us. Also if you missed the second one, like I did thanks to no showings near me, the movie goes on sale next month, March 9th. Hopefully it's easy to find in stores.

It's Coming...

A real man admits when he is wrong, and that is what I shall do right now. A while back I posted a rumor (that turned out to be false) that Rebirth had been pushed back, again. Well, turns out I was wrong. It is coming out when they said it would, which happens to be Tuesday. I stand my statements of it being a terrible idea however. I sure as hell won't buy it, or any songs from the album....especially since I already got the Eminem track for free, HA!

Erykah Badu - Jump Up In The Air (Stay There) ft. Lil Wayne

A radio rip of this song came out a while back but now we are blessed with a CDQ. Supposedly there are 10 other emcees on this song, but Badu won't let out any names. I don't know if there is going to be a version with all of them together, or if she's just gonna put out 10 different versions of the same song. Whatever the case may be it is off of her upcoming album, New Amerykah pt. 2: Return of the Ankh. Hopefully we get an Andre 3000 verse, or maybe even OutKast together, only Erykah knows though.

Forever

If you're like me you wished the Eminem performed the "Forever" track at the AMA's with Wayne, Drake, and Kanye. It is being said that the rappers (minus Kanye) will team up with Travis Parker for a live performance at the Grammys this Sunday (sorry Pro Bowl). Rapradar.com has also reported the Wayne and Eminem are currently working on a video for "Drop the World" before Weezy goes to get raped in prison.

On My Own

Freddie Gibbs teams up with Mikkey Halsted (I don't know).

How Low (Fail)

How is it both of the videos I post of this song end up being removed due to copyright reasons? You will not see another post from me trying to show this video, as a matter of fact I've removed the two original post. On to the next one

Classified - Oh, Canada

I am sick as fuck right now, so don't expect a new post until I feel like moving again. New video from the dope Canadian rapper off of his latest album Self Explanatory available now. Canada, and somewhere on the coast of Brazil are the only places I would move to outside of the U.S. of A.






Oh yeah, FUCK the Colts #okbye

Tom P - Self Titled

This is a Tom P post but I couldn't find a picture of him that worked so I gave up. Conan's last show tonight, I'll be watching. Feel bad for the dude but at the same time he's getting paid over $30 mil, so I don't feel that bad. Like I said this is really a Tom P post. Tom P is a white rapper from Decatur, Georgia. Guy's pretty dope and recently put out an album for free. Recently for me because I just found out about the guy, this actually might be pretty old. Whatever the case may be it's good. Hit the jump for the track list and download link.

Joe Budden ft. Royce Da 5'9'' - 40/40

Keep Your Faith, As We Chase The Cool...

I'm gonna try to post at least one thing a day from now on. Once again, no promises. As far as the image above goes, I thought of the Lupe line "Keep your faith/ as we chase the cool." Faith reminded me of a cross, which reminded me of a celtic cross, which then reminded me of The Boondock Saints. Until next time...

This. Is. The Reboot.

Director Sam Raimi has left the Spider-Man franchise and now Sony is saying that they plan to start the series over starting with a new movie summer 2012. Two things have to happen to this franchise and they can take notes from the Batman franchise to solve both problems. Number one, they need to start making good movies, because let's face it the first one was the only one that was decent. Number two, make good video games. I never would of thought it would be so hard to make a video game based on Spider-Man but somehow they keep on failing. Once again they need to take notes from Batman. It's hard because Batman is a dark story and Spider-Man relies on humor and by no means am I suggesting Spider-Man become dark but come on make something good come out of this franchise that's not just printed on paper. Ok, I'm done being a N.E.R.D for the day.

New Mixtape

According to Keri Hilson's Twitter page she is working on a new mixtape. You may find this post meaningless because there is no mixtape now and the release date has yet to be announced. That is a good point, I just wanted to post the pic you see above, haha.

Avatar

CNN reports that people are becoming depressed and experiencing suicidal thoughts because they can't live in James Cameron's made up world of Pandora. Because why wouldn't you want to live in a place that gets attacked by the military for it's natural resources, hundreds of animals that could easily kill you to feed their children, and other tribes that want to kill you for trespassing on their land.....oh, wait...

Head over to 2DB for the full press release.

Wow...

I haven't posted anything since Thursday, somewhat because of the lack of music that has grabbed my attention, and mostly because I've been too busy watching the Playoffs and going to Spurs games. Sooooooooooooo, here's a bunch of posts with news, and new/old songs.

Royce Da 5'9'' - Go Hard ft. Kid Vishis

New Royce featuring Kid Vishis over the funniest title for a Rihanna song. When Rihanna says she's "so hard" millions of guys say "me too." Props 2DB.

Clipse ft. The Roots

Decided I couldn't go 2 days without a post, so here is Clipse performing Popular Demand on Late Nite (or is it Night?) with The Roots and a new verse from Black Thought. Hit the jump for a bonus performance of their song Grindin', and the music video of Popular Demand ft. Killa.

J. Cole - Playground

Staying with J. names for the finally track of the night. An Elite produced track that didn't make the cut of J. Cole's The Warm-Up. I don't understand why though because it has been on repeat since I grabbed it. The track can now be found on Elite's The Groundwork, which you can download after the jump.

Joe Budden - Money's On Me

New track from Buddden (not a typo) produced by J. Cardim. Another song where he talks about his problems. Props to 2DB.
