Via Live From Da Pepa Mill by way of Spine Magazine U.K. emcee Mystro interviews Devin the Dude, who demonstrates his impressive rolling skills. Just Tryin’ Ta Live is also easily one of the best albums of this decade and is criminally overlooked – it’s a good place to start..

Hip-Hop Mixtape

Joell Ortiz – Covers The Classics.

Just when I had all but lost interest in Joell Ortiz, he drops this amazing mixtape and reestablishes himself as one of the most talented rappers around. Covers The Classics has Joell rhyming insane over hip-hop standards like “Rappers Delight,” “Verbal Intercourse” and “Ebonics.” Joell stays true to the mixtape..

Raphael Saadiq – 100 Yard Dash (Live on Dancing with the Stars).

Damn, I need to start watching Dancing with the Stars. Raphael Saadiq opened the show with a killer performance complete with energetic back up singers and dancers. Saadiq has excellent showmanship.

Tanya Morgan – She’s Gone AKA Without You (ft. Phonte, Brittany Bosco) (produced by Aeon).

I met Von Pea, Illyas and Donwill yesterday at Fat Beats and I can safely conclude that Tanya Morgan are the coolest guys in rap. And I’m not just saying that because they’re avid Metal Lungies readers (which they are). Right here is perhaps my favorite song off Brooklynati, the..

The Lonely Island (Ft The Roots) – I’m on A Boat, Live on Jimmy Fallon, Video.

It seems that worthwhile clips from Jimmy Fallon’s show tend to involve The Legendary Roots Crew. This rendition of the now classic SNL short is notable for a few reasons, Black Thought fills in for T-Pain, and The Roots are decked out (no pun, I swear) in nautical gear, and..

Jadakiss Returns the Favor by Buying Channel 10 on iTunes.

Jadakiss was so taken by Nore’s gesture that he set aside 45 minutes to figure out how to buy CNN’s latest album Channel 10 on iTunes. Jada doesn’t put on as much of a show as Nore, nor does he have as much difficulty, but he still hits a few..

The Game – Bang Along.

Very profane rhymes for such a sunny sounding beat. Game recounts his wonder years on this track off the Made in America mixtape: getting his ass whooped for taking a Duck Hunt gun outside, his first sexual experience and of course getting his first kilo. Game’s excellent flow shows no..

Busta Rhymes – Decision (ft. Jamie Foxx, Mary J. Blige, John Legend, Common) (produced by Mr. Porter).

(image source) I was bumping this a lot when an early version, which I’ve included, leaked back in January. Busta Rhymes and company sign a heartfelt song about being there for your friends and Mr. Porter provides an appropriately clean and classy beat. Am I the only one who thinks..
