Jams of the Week

Back again, sticking to the script ya'll, meeting deadlines and all that.
My best 3 jams of the week is going to be hard this week.  I have been practicing for a live set, so I have been bumping my own jams for the past week but I think I can at least find 3 amazing songs to peep.

"To The World" Kanye West ft. R. Kelly
Off the highly anticipated Cruel Summer album by G.O.O.D Music and I must say I love this jam.  Shots at Romney, and the illiterate Kelly flexing that vocal range.  Good thing no word in his part was no more than 6 letters....(fact checkers needed on that, I'm to lazy)  Seriously bang the shit out of this

 "Bitch Bad" Lupe Fiasco
Since I haven't made a Lupe related post since my last one and I think 4 singles off F&L2 have dropped since I think its only right I include one here.  Dig this, so pumped for next Tuesday y'all!!

"Make It Bun Dem" Skrillex & Damien Jr. Gong Marley
So since I didn't want to throw up an old track from Royalty which is another CD I've been pumping recently I just did a youtube search and found this gem.  Peep game homies

NEW LUPE!!

"Around My Way" off Food and Liquor 2: The Great American Rap Album Pt. 1


I have been a fan of Lupe since Food and Liquor and recently every single idiot on Youtube and Facebook has the same thing to say, 'Make another Food and Liquor.'  I understand LASERS was more mainstream than his previous efforts and sort of alienated his fan base that are on his nuts because 'he is real and doesn't spit about cars and bling and hoes.'  But I enjoyed LASERS, its called progression people!!!  It's not like he abandoned his style for LASERS and started talking about that stuff, I think they are mad cuz the beats and hooks are too "pop" for their stupid asses. You gotta move and adapt, or die off with all of the one hit wonders who are too stuck in their ways to try anything new.  He could have pulled a Jay - Z and said "Niggas want my old shit, buy my old albums." But he has 3 albums called Blueprint so take that with a grain of salt.  


So Lupe comes back with the first single of his next highly anticipated album that has every hip hop head droolin.  Finally those same idiots can go cop what they have been complaining about since 2006.  But they still gotta complain about something so they are going off on using the beat from Pete Rock and CL Smooths "T.R.O.Y"  I don't care too much about that, cuz Lupe kills it.  I can listen to this forever cuz each line packs so much info, double entendres and meaning that at first listen you wont get it.  But let Lupe tell it how it is.  Peep this interview from Complex.com on the subject and check out the related articles to see how the whole Pete Rock drama unfolded.  Then listen to this jam a million more times until F&L2 drops!!!
