Travis Barker remixes Soulja Boy’s ‘Crank That’.

This video has been blowing up the internets. Personally, I’ve watched it a few times, and when I hear the original in the club (more like in the car on the radio) I try to think of Travis’ version. I guess this what some kickass drum work and 4 2 drumsticks do to another forgettable gimmicky song. Don’t bet against this being the only time you see any Soulja Boy work mentioned on here, sorry Soulja Boy (?) fans.

Jay-Z’s Back….

With his new song Blue Magic. Like ya’ll didn’t see this one coming. I, for one, am glad he’s back. Some people liked Kingdom Come and it wasn’t a bad album, but it wasn’t a Jay album. It’s just certain emcees you expect a certain level of excellence from. Jay is one of them. Huey, Boosie, Hurricane Chris? Not so much….. I like the track. It’ll take a couple of listens and some movie preview clips to get used to it.

The 4th Quarter just got a little more interesting.

10 Remixes Better Than…

[Photo jacked from Nah Right, a.k.a. hip hop savior #3.]

I don’t mean to front on the whole “event” feel of this record — I can respect the coming together of the 3 biggest money-earners in hip hop today. But, I was thinking about transitioning the overreaching hype around this record (I mean, is that supposed to be a movie poster? For a song?) into a top-10-remixes-of-all-time list, until I realized that I just can’t accept that type of authority. So, here’s 10 of my favorite remixes, of which the 50/Jay/Diddy‘s ghostwriter collabo is not included. If you don’t like Busta Rhymes, you might want to proceed with caution…

[I’m hoping not to steal HM’s thunder by posting right above him, but I felt like the longer I waited, the less relevant it would be. I mean, this remix came out 3 days ago and it already feels like old news. But anyways, be sure to check HM’s latest podcast — yet another classic mix.]

Timbaland Reworking Stronger.

Yeah, we kinda liked the track a lil while ago, so we had to share this.  I’m always geeked to see footage of producers working with each other. Looks like Danja really is Timbo’s right hand man.

As always thanks to nahright.

PM-Bottles In The Air.

Kanye West co-signed rapper. Dude has potential but the beat sounds way toooooo much like The Neptunes produced Bow Wow-Take Ya Home record.

Foxy Brown Ft. Barrington Levy- Mr Dj.

Ahh, Barrington Levy and his Jamaican Creole. Looks like Foxy can’t get enough of rapping with her Jamaican accent. Anyway, this reminds me of the mean middle school days when the homies and I would try to imitate Barrington from Shyne’s Bad Boyz cut.

Foxy Brown Ft. Barringotn Levy-Mr. DJ Off of Brooklyn’s Don Diva which drops 11.20.07.

Jeff Garlin mocking Kanye.

As mentioned before, we don’t like wack-juice either. Here’s hoping this isn’t the last season of Curb.
