New School Music - K-dawg Edition

Has it really been almost 4 months since I've dropped new music??? I would like to use my newborn as my excuse but in reality, I've haven't heard a lot of OH S*** music. However, thanks to my road dog aka the Infamous K-dawg, the following songs are ones that I typically would fast forward on but after he constantly played these songs in my ear via the phone, now I find myself humming these things too. This is for you K-dawg :-)....

OJ Da Juiceman f Gucci Mane - Make the Trap Say Aye

Lyrically this song is forgettable as other "classics" of the South (Let me ride that donkey, I hate hoez, etc). But this ain't about dope lyrics, this is about a hook and beat that are addictive. I swear if I was back in college, it would be me, K-dawg, Gangsta, and possibly Pilot rolling down Peachtree screaming outside of the Protege AAYEE



Soulja Boy - Turn my swag on

Again replace OJ's name with Soulja Boy. And what makes this worse is that I think very very lowly of Mista Tell 'Em. But that hook kicks in and I'm like man hop up out da bed, turn my swag on.....

I didn't post the remix but Lil Wayne and Jeezy definitely increased dude's ATL cred




Young Money f Lil Wayne - Every Girl

I ain't gon front, the first time K Dawg played this for me, I'm like this beat is effin' hot. I'm becoming more and more of a man whore for Lil Weezy. That means I will stop and give any song he puts out or appears on a first listen. I've come a long way from the dude who said Weezy's career would be over by 2001 :-)



Kanye West f Young Jeezy - Amazing

Ok this song was not inspired by K Dawg. This actually was inspired by my son who's become a huge fan of Kanye. Every time we get in the car, he's like "Daddy play So Amazing." Then when it plays you can hear him in the back going WOOSH So Amazing repeatedly. Did I mention he's two? Why you trippin be glad he's not requesting Do the Stanky Leg or some nonsense like that.



R&B Pick of the Quarter

Chrisette Michelle - Epiphany

Notice I said quarter because usually R&B struggles to put out enough songs where I can find a decent new one each week. Chrissette's underrated and this song is pure fiyah. Love the keys on this joint....

Running The Bulls


Gangsta D:

OK, this is for the Bulls' fans. When did they get good again? And did they get good in spite of Vinny Of The Black, or because of him? I have to admit I didn't even know they were "playoff-eligible" until last week:)

G-Nice

That's just hate and you know it!

They are not good. That would be an overstatement. They are competing, which is a monster step up from last year. Derrick Rose is the truth and John Salmons, surprising to me because I swear I thought he was going to be a big old tool, has been very solid. The Bulls play a 7, maybe 8 man rotation and have just been going for broke. No, they are not good. But they are building, and I hope they steal two game from Boston.

Gangsta D:

Like I'm gonna deny my hate:)

Rose is indeed the truth. Can't keep him out of the lane, and with no Garnett....I'm just saying. He could do some damage.

Waldini:

Rose is a stud, Tyrus Thomas needs a jumper, Deng hasn't been mentally right since the Kobe rumors, Gordon's offense is sic but it's all about him, Salmons has been steady, Noah has shocked me by not being a complete bust, and Vinny the Black should get serious Coach of the Year consideration for getting this team in a 6 seed. I say all that to say Celtics in 5 :-)

You haters got 2 days to hop on the Lakers' bandwagon b4 me and D close the door Read more!

Pass The Ammunition


Waldini:

Man, I would have robbed some Magic player after the game


The Magic pulled the cruellest of April Fool's Day pranks on an unsuspecting
victim last night. The blindfolded fan heaved a half-court shot that he thought
was worth $100,000 (U.S.), and the crowd, in on the gag, went wild in the
moments after he let it go. Convinced he'd swished the improbable shot and won
the cash, the victim celebrated wildly. "I actually just got laid off from
work," he said, "but we're going on a trip." When the rug was pulled, he did not
look pleased.
Gangsta D:

Why would a CORPORATE entity pull a stunt like that during these times? If I was that dude, I would've cussed out everyone. Probably would've started a couple fist fights too. Dicks.

Waldini:

See it's got us upset and we not even that dude :-). Let's hop in the car and issue a Wonder Twin beatdown

Gangsta D:

If I were him, I'd sue for...I don't know. Something! lol

Waldini's Rant: Bitter Is Best Served With Krispy Kreme


Waldini:

I'm starting to see I'm more and more like Realist everyday. We both from the South, married, got kids, are Com Sci Hoez, and like Bojangles (He's frontin in public D but he tells me he's a sucker for Bo Berry Biscuits). I say this b/c I remember him expressing disgust on the NBA Awards, and I'm starting to feel the same...

MVP - Pretty much Lebron's to lose but I wish folks would stop saying he's doing more with less on his team. If that less includes a 3 time All Star (Zydrunas), a 4 time Defensive player of the Year/former champ (Big Ben), a #1 overall pick (Joe Smith), and current/former All

Stars (Wally's World, Mo Williams), then I'm scared of what more means. I'm loving Wade's comeback season but his inclusion in the MVP debate is retarded. Kobe put up the same numbers in '06, cat finished a distant 5th. This ain't the MLB

Defense - I almost choked when someone said Garnett was the best defensive player in the game today? Best? as in the top of the heap? Yea he made Boston's team defense better but best individual defensive player? I guess it's all marketing these days

Rookie - I rarely get caught up in this anymore b/c the race is normally over after a month. Don't think so, go look at the past winners. Name at least 2 people that challenged the ROY in each year...I'm daring you

Yea I'm ranting and that's cuz I got 3 Krispy Kremes in me....You got a problem with that!

Gangsta D:

My God! What the Hell happened to you? You've aged 20 years since Greyson's birth.

Waldini:

I know man. I finally hit me I was a parent on Sat when I took my son to the play center. Some kid tried to punk him by pushing him down and I told him to get back up, get your toy, and tell that kid no hitting....

Gangsta D:

Soon you'll be wearing shorts and sandals with black socks...
