Some more absolute FIRE from Bullet, as he straight up rips thru N*E*R*D, CRS, & Pusha T’s “Everyone Nose RMX”, with as many words per minute as Twista, haha. Damn, he rips fast and of course w/ some depth and clever rhymes, my favorite actually being the Peter Parker, Spiderman line to close the verse. His delivery there was on point. Can someone please add this to the actual RMX? I wanna hear all 5 verses now, haha. And here’s another event for next Wednesday, the 17th for all u Chicago visitors. First head 2 Twista’s NHL 2K9 event, then jet 2 the Funky Buddha Lounge right after and see Bullet perform LIVE! Details below. Enjoy!
N*E*R*D “Everyone Nose RMX” f/ Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, & Pusha T
VIDEO PREMIERE!
Thanks 2 S-Preme in our Jabbify, I was able 2 catch the world premiere of the long-anticipated “Everyone Nose RMX” on BET’s 106 & Park and thx 2 Connie over @ OnSmash w/ the send-thru, we have the video online and above @ GWHH! I was expecting big things from the video and it delivered. I love the crazy, fresh effects throughout and the video game / electronic type elements illustrated, w/ everyone lookin’ and actin’ all fly throughout the video. It definitely personifies the style of N*E*R*D and its equally fresh guest features - Kanye, Lupe, & Pusha T from Clipse. I’ve also been thinking about who delivers the best verse out of the 4 in this track for quite some time now, and I’ma throw it out there that if I had 2 choose one who really really killed it, it’s Pusha T. His flow is just ridiculous over the awesome beat and people shouldn’t sleep on him w/ CRS likely overshadowing him on this song 2 the casual fan. Any thoughts on this as well? Chat or comment away! (I should note tho that Kanye, and Lupe especially shine brighter lyrically..) It’s a MUST-WATCH video so please take the time 2 check it out above! That’s all I really got for now, besides a boatload of trax and other videos for ya below! Hip hop, R&B, Underground, Mainstream, something for everyone so just check it out below! Enjoy!
FULL, CDQ, Track off upcoming album, First Love*Tibs Fav.™
Large update, starting with another nice track from up and comer R&B singer Karina Pasian! It’s a slow jam that should be on her upcoming album of the same name, in stores August 19th! More trax below feature a pretty sick beat by The Underdogs, a nice Chris Brown feature, & Mikkey Halsted ripping thru one of my all-time favorite beats (Mobb Deep - “Shook Ones Pt. 2″). Finally, a ton of videos for u 2 look at, including behind the scenes looks at music videos from CRS, Lupe Fiasco, & T.I., and a bunch of Rock The Bells interviews with all the various artists on the bill. Enjoy!
Producer: Swizz Beatz? - FULL, CDQ, 1st single off upcoming album, Theatre Of The Mind*Tibs Fav.™
A few standout trax from the bunch above and below, starting with Ludacris’ latest single (thx 2 Steve-O for the send) that will surely be hitting the radio in due time. It features Chris Brown & Sean Garrett and supposedly is produced by Swizz Beatz. The song is pretty solid on 1st listen and is exactly the type of song that will grow on me over time. The song is aimed squarely at the pop crowd, especially with a unique beat that is also likely 2 annoy some as well. I’m indifferent on the beat, like many of the vocals by Luda & CB, so we’ll see how this track lasts over time. Down below, Trey Songz kills the first verse of the “Girls Around The World RMX” and T.I. & Fabolous kill the “Hi Hater RMX”! Also be sure 2 check out a few vids and the extensive Complex feature on Lupe Fiasco & N*E*R*D! Enjoy!

—————————————————————————————
So are there gonna be no more Lupe solo albums? Is there a CRS project that you’re—
Lupe Fiasco: Yeah, the CRS project hopefully will come before my last album. So that will probably be the next thing that everybody kind of goes into.
I heard you were the one that actually gave the sample for “Us Placers” that was out there.
Lupe Fiasco: Yeah, I produced the record; Pharrell came up with the name and the idea. And “Us Placers” was the first song that’s like, “Yeah, this could work.”

They illustrate the story that all 3 rappers touch on in their verses and are just havin’ fun, especially Lu and Cons throughout the vid, haha. All the while, everyone’s lookin’ pretty fly. Definitely a MUST-SEE video above so don’t sleep. The track is off of Don’t Quit Your Day Job, which is in stores now!
A bunch of trax below that u can DL, not a lot of special ones, but definitely check out a couple good hip hop trax from the Minneapolis MC Muja Messiah f/ Black Thought of The Roots, which fans of The Roots will enjoy as well as the Guru feature track where Guru spits it pretty nicely (unfortunately his verse is interrupted by a lil’ shout out, ugh!).

Producer: Jim Jonsin - FULL, CDQ, 1st Single off upcoming album, Paper Trail*Tibs Fav.™
***Added Robin Thicke “Magic RMX” f/ Freeway & Wale “Whole Time” f/ Young Chris below!***
Big day with the supposed, official 1st single off Paper Trail above! It’s not related 2 the Nicole Scherzinger/T.I. collaboration of the same name, but the one thing it has in common is it’s aim for the mainstream. I’m not all the way sold on the first few listens of the track as it certainly has a catchy beat, but it’s high pitch synths will likely annoy me over time. The chorus is equally as catchy, but I’m not sure it’s strong enough for the song 2 take off like how “What You Know” did. I love T.I., but it looks like he went by the formula on this one, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but it’s also not on that top tier of T.I. songs that I was hoping the 1st single would reach. However, most of T.I.’s songs grow on me and I can see this one doing the same once the play count reaches double digits, but time will tell. Down below u can DL another track from Yung Berg’s upcoming album - all the ones posted are solid, but I can never get really into them.. maybe u will tho. And there’s a bunch of videos featuring interviews with Nas & Common, Nas & Keri Hilson performing their single, “Hero”, a Trey Songz featured video premiere, & some more videos and pictures from the set of the “Everyone Nose RMX” video, which will be directed by Hype Williams, who always brings out the best in the song and artist in his videos! Just got a lil’ more excited w/ that info. Enjoy!
FULL, CDQ, Rumored track off upcoming, self-titled album *Tibs Fav.™
Some NEW R&B trax for ya ears with the feature coming from Ryan Leslie above! It sounds similar 2 the original “Diamond Girl”, with that same scratchy, yet catchy beat which makes for a pretty unique song that I’m feelin. I would think that by seeing Chris Brown & Bryan-Michael Cox 2gether that it would be an automatic *Tibs Fav.™ but there’s just 2 much going on in the chorus that it’s hard 2 follow, I’m not feelin’ the B. Cox joint like I usually do, and it just sounds overall a lil corny and formulaic for me. Maybe it’ll grow on me, who knows, but on first listens, I couldn’t get into it. (Shouts 2 our aff. Urban Music for those exclusives..) Some other solid trax u can peep below, but also the behind the scenes look at CRS’ first video for the “Everyone Nose RMX”! I’m psyched, can definitely see that record takin’ off. Quite frankly, the excitement level for upcoming CRS songs and videos is on par with my excitement for Derrick Rose on the hometown Bulls, which as u may know already, is thru the roof! Anyway, enjoy!
8 Min. Track with 30 second samples of every track off the upcoming album, Back To The Lyrics*Tibs Fav.™
First off, congrats 2 S-Preme for winning our first contest up above! Definitely worth checkin’ out cuz the young Chicago rapper kills the Mr. Music beat! As for 2day’s update, Bullet came thru with an album sampler, which is a sweet concept of 30 second snippets of every track from the album, which will be released July 29th!!! It all sounds good, with the snippet at around 4:50 sounding real promising! Down below, a bunch of hip hop for ya ears featuring Naledge from Kidz In The Hall with a sick freestyle, even dropping Utah Jazz coach, Jerry Sloan, haha. Also below are a couple unreleased trax from Talib Kweli, the Sean Bell Tribute featuring various rappers, the latest single featuring T-Pain as he collaborates with Yung Berg, & a sweet Usher snippet as well! Finally, get psyched b/c Lupe himself announced CRS will start filming a music video starting Wednesday! We bout 2 see some fireworks from Lu, ‘Ye, & Skateboard P! Enjoy!
Wow! Kanye dropped this sick photo/news flash on his blog 2day and how can you not be excited? Not sure that Rihanna fits in, but I think she’s tight w/ ‘Ye. But this also means Lupe, Kanye, and Pharrell could all be on the same stage and performing “Us Placers”, which would be incredible. A lot of possibilities here and I’m def goin 2 find some way 2 get tickets!
Here are this week’s requests featuring the hit “Cyclone” as well as 2Pac, T.I. Johnta’ Austin, Chris Brown, Twista, Faith Evans, and CRS (Lupe Fiasco, Kanye West, Pharrell)! You can DL all the files below!
