Some more quick-hit trax for ya Sunday evening, including yet another cover/RMX from Trey Songz! Again, this is an abundance of songs from Songz that I can’t complain about. He continues 2 kill every beat he jumps on and each track shows a different side of the artist, whether its his voice, flow, rhymes, or ability 2 adapt 2 any type of beat. So keep ‘em comin’ Trey! I know there’s more ppl lovin’ what they’re hearin’ than gettin’ tired of u jumpin’ on every beat. Down below, about a handful of trax that are mainly forgettable but Nelly actually comes through with a lyrical, slow hip hop jam that I actually like and is supposedly a bonus track off Brass Knuckles. Enjoy!
Producer: StarGate & Ne-Yo - FULL, CDQ, 2nd Single off upcoming album, Year Of The Gentleman *Tibs Fav.™
Whoo, another hit for Ne-Yo with his 2nd single from Year Of The Gentleman above! This will blow up the radio like “Closer” did - it’s got a sweet, semi-uptempo beat that Ne-Yo fans shouldn’t be surprised about and Ne-Yo kills it lyrically again. Everyone is going 2 eat up that chorus also as fellas like myself can attest that we love a girl who is independent and the ladies will all be like, “Yup, that’s me!”. Haha, but yeah, both the R&B lovin’ ladies and gents will love this track and I think it’s safe 2 say this one will run up my iTunes play counts real fast! Down below is a video premiere 2 another catchy song I like - the collaboration between Nelly, Akon, & Ashanti! It’s a pretty fly vid with Nelly & Akon showin’ off their style and Ashanti lookin’ better than ever! Enjoy!
And just so everyone knows, Max G. & I (…and S-Preme! Congrats!) will be attending the Rock The Bells Chicago concert all day 2morrow as Kidz In The Hall opens shortly after 12 noon, with Mos Def, then Nas, then A Tribe Called Quest taking us home by 10:30. So it’s an all-day event and there will be no updates btwn those times; however, we will for sure come back hard on Sunday with our reviews of the concert, my review of Nas’ Untitled, and of course all your NEW music and vids!
Producer: Scram Jones - FULL, CDQ, Track off upcoming album, El Che*Tibs Fav.™
Some brand NEW Rhymefest for ya ears (shouts 2 Andrew) and its a ridiculous, good hip hop track that speaks at u on first listen! The catchy “Ya’ll ain’t heard it from me” sample scratched in as the chorus is a great mesh for the whole song with a simple, nice beat and Rhymefest and Wale speakin’ on the game w/ Rhymefest setting the tone in the first verse with the ear-catching line,“Records ain’t sellin’, what the f*** is my incentive, captain?” Yeah, this is some real hip hop that ya’ll should add 2 ur collection that rings especially pleasing 2 this Chicagoland native, just as the slow, dirty south beat of Mistah F.A.B.’s “2MPH” f/ Bun B, Paul Wall, & Chamillionaire will ring the right chords with the Houston crowd! U can also check out a couple NEW trax from Mickey Factz with some guest features and some ridiculous lines! And don’t forget, down below.. a couple vid premieres from Clipse and the sexy songstress, Ashanti! Enjoy!

My boy DJ B-Bop comes thru yet again with another nice mixtape featuring some R&B trax from GWHH, some R&B trax from talented up and comers you may not have, and even dabbles into some hip hop as well! He blended the mix 2gether for your listening pleasure in long car rides, at your computer during school or work, or wherever..! The mixtape is yet again a MUST-DL for any fan of hip hop and especially R&B and you can do that above. Click HERE for more mixtapes from DJ B-Bop and HEREfor another archive of mixtapes from the Twin Cities DJ! Enjoy!
Real quick update for me, then off 2 work and Common @ DePaul!

Scroll and check out Max G.’s sweet post below! Enjoy!
FULL, CDQ, Track from the lost album, World Record Holders*Tibs Fav.
Props 2 FSD for their track by track leak of a “lost” album by the Go Getters (Kanye West, GLC, & Really Doe) called World Record Holders. The title track is up above and it’s another hot one by the Chicago rappers. It is also interesting 2 see the growth in Kanye from a track like this (from years ago apparently) 2 how he is 2day. Def a MUST-DL above! Below are some NEW trax f/ Lil’ Wayne and R&B singers Ryan Leslie, Digga (really feelin’ the NEW version of “Broken”), & Ashanti! Along w/ those, peep the Roscoe Umali video premiere and Atmosphere LIVE @ Conan! Off 2 the Glow In The Dark Tour in Chicago 2nite! JYEA! Enjoy!
Producer: Deezle & Jim Jonsin - FULL, CDQ *Tibs Fav.
Now if you’ve been followin’ GWHH for awhile, u’ll know I’m not the biggest fan of Weezy, but in fact, “Lollipop” was one of his songs that I didn’t have 2 switch right away and now Kanye brings it on the autotuner with the highly anticipated RMX! I’m not huge on the autotuner trend that is hitting all the major artists now as well and I can see it getting out of hand fast, but not yet at least. U already know Kanye is ridiculous in his first verse, just like u already know, our boy Lupe Fiasco straight up kills any beat, like the dirty south collaboration with friend Bun B! Love their verses. Below, there’s another good hip hop track from the legend KRS-One. Also, u may recognize “Body On Me” from a couple weeks ago with Nelly and Akon only, but it turns out it is Ashanti’s song and her next single. And Yung Berg also drops his next single so peep and DL all the NEW trax above & below! And take a look at the video PREMIERE of N.E.R.D.’s “Everyone Nose” while u wait! Enjoy!
