Video: XV, “Batteries” (Feat. Trae the Truth)

Posted in Media, Video with tags Batteries, Ninja Turtles, Trae the Truth, XV, Zero Heroes on Wednesday, January 25, 2012 by Tim Althaus

I’m still impatiently waiting for XV’s debut album The Kid With the Green Backpack because I know that it’s going to be a game changer; his latest offering Zero Heroes is one of the best mixtapes I’ve heard in the last few years. Vizzy dropped some visuals for the track “Batteries”, and it features Trae the Truth. You know why I love Vizzy’s music so much? In the first few lines he spits you get a Ninja Turtles reference, and later on he spits an Uncle Phil reference; he grew up in the 90s, and he isn’t ashamed of it. All throughout XV’s music, there are references to the 90s littered about, and it takes me back to being a kid.

Mixtape Download: Saigon, Warning Shots 3: One Foot in the Grave

The Yardfather is back, and he’s using his built up momentum from last year’s spectacular outing The Greatest Story Never Told. Yesterday Sai-Giddy dropped his long awaited street album Warning Shots 3: One Foot in the Grave. I can honestly say that this mixtape is bananas; all of the beats are straight fire, and Saigon spits that hardcore street flow that you’ve become used to hearing. Production comes courtesy of Just Blaze, DJ Corbett, Shuko, Red Spyda and Scram Jones. You can also expect to hear guest appearances from Jump-Off Joe Beezy, Lil’ Fame and Quan.

The Greatest Story Never Told was one of best year’s last albums, and it sounds like Saigon is going to keep bringing top quality material for the Hip-Hop lover’s ears. I personally can’t wait until Sai drops his next studio offering; he could quickly become one of the best emcees of this generation.

Video: Evidence, “Falling Down”

Posted in Media, Video with tags "Falling Down", Cats & Dogs, Evidence on Wednesday, January 25, 2012 by Tim Althaus

This is the definition of a dope video. Last week I posted the teaser, and yesterday the official video came out for “Falling Down” by Evidence. This is one of the dopest videos I’ve set my eyes on in a long time. If you’ve been sleeping on Cats & Dogs, you probably shouldn’t be listening to Hip-Hop, and that’s a fact.
