B.o.B. aka Bobby Ray plays a lovely acoustic version of “Yesterday” off his upcoming (fingers crossed) debut, The Adventures of B.O.B. I’m not crazy about a lot of the Bobby Ray stuff on the B.o.B. Vs. Bobby Ray mixtape, but I like this song a lot. As a bonus, check..
Oh look. Drake and Nipsey. Huh. Sometimes tracks leak sporadically or on an artist’s whim. I don’t think that’s the case with “Killer.” Major labels exercise the utmost scrutiny when it comes to a new artist’s image. Especially rappers. When Asher Roth joked about nappy-headed hoes, his people sent a..
I remember watching them make this track on Ustream. Rae fits surprisingly well on a West Coast beat. Off The G Files, dropping September 29. Download: Warren G – 100 Miles & Runnin (ft. Raekwon, Nate Dogg) via Nah Right Bonus: Wale – Rhyme N Reason (ft. Tre) (produced by..

Blu’s production on here is a far cry from the dreary jazz-samples on his EP from February; it’s more upbeat and funky. Sene spits quick wordplay-enriched brag rap. Off the Transmitting Live..
