FULL, DJ, Track off upcoming mixtape, This Is HIp-Hop Vol. 2*Tibs Fav.™
First off, GWHH would like 2 extend a HAPPY THANKSGIVING 2 all those feasting on turkey in the States today! Here’s an early morning update for ya eyes and ears, starting out with a top-notch track that you’d expect from the legend, Nas. Down below, a batch of decent trax featuring some prominent up and coming names in the industry like Bobby Valentino, Ryan Leslie, & Keri Hilson. The videos are worth the viewings as Kanye West has been performing LIVE on all the shows lately, most recently with Young Jeezy for BET’s 106 & Park. He is also interviewed by Angie Martinez and finally, Talib Kweli & Res come thru of their latest hit as Idle Warship called “Black Snake Moan” (Shouts 2 Tunji!) Enjoy!
I was buys all day Saturday, but back on Sunday with a HUGE, 25 track update, predominantly R&B featuring all the big names like Trey Songz, Ne-Yo, Chris Brown, Usher, Mario, Jamie Foxx, & MORE! My boy Songz sounds ridiculous over the 2 covers of Slim and Robin Thicke. I’m really feelin’ those couple trax and to a lesser extent, the “Just Like Me RMX” w/ Usher added and the Paula DeAnda / Frankie J duet. Peep all the trax below as well as the latest video premiere from Gym Class Heroes and a video about The Roots’ retirement from touring. Enjoy!
FULL, DJ, CLEAN, Track off upcoming album, Theater Of The Mind *Tibs Fav.™
Whoo, 18 track update for ya ears here, starting off w/ the much anticipated collabo between 3 of 2day’s biggest rap stars: “I Did It For Hip Hop” by Ludacris f/ Jay-Z & Nas! And this one blew me away. Luda comes thru with a catchy hook over a raw hip hop beat and I’m especially feelin’ Nas’ verse. Definitely one that every hip hop fan should DL! Down below, an interesting original version of Common’s “Be”, a hot beat on the DJ Felli Fel track, the nice extended version of “Propane” f/ T.I., some more various hip hop and R&B trax-n-vids! Enjoy!
Producer: Jim Jonsin - FULL, CDQ, Clean*Tibs Fav.™
MORE H-Town heat for ya ears, with the featured track of this 2nd post 2day comin’ from another Houston rapper, Slim Thug! It’s a real hot, Jim Jonsin produced beat that is inspired by the classic from A Flock Of Seagulls’ “I Ran”! For the younger generation like myself, that likable song was the title track for Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and is instantly recognizable with Slim Thug’s clear southern style overlaying the similar chorus. Down below, a few more solid trax, including a nice Swizz Beatz radio rip that I think I’ll like more once the CDQ version is released. It’s certainly catchy, as u should expect from Swizzy. Finally, there’s a foursome of hip hop related videos with interviews with Common and Q-Tip, a live performance video of Q-Tip, and the latest video premiere from Jadakiss! Enjoy!
Producer: Kanye West - FULL, CDQ, FINAL RE-MASTERED VERSION, Track off upcoming album, 808’s & Heartbreak*Tibs Fav.™
Kanye dropped all of the above on his blog 2day… so lemme paraphrase. As you may know by now, the video premiere for Kanye’s 2nd single, “Heartless”, was leaked, but not by Kanye. It wasn’t a perfect HQ version, so Kanye uploaded it, which is the version above. He also released the RMX 2 “Love Lockdown” f/ fellow Chicagoan, R. Kelly as well as Pharis?! And THEN, Kanye remastered “Love Lockdown” and “Heartless”, definitely enhancing each track very noticeably and brilliantly, yet at the same time causing all of us 2 DL yet another version of it. Perhaps a small annoyance, but greater than that is a higher quality version of Kanye’s latest hits! Down below, Alicia Keys is re-releasing As I Am out in the U.K., including 3 bonus trax that us folks in the United States will surely grab. An extended? version of “Another Way To Die”, a potential grower in “Doncha Know (Sky Is Blue)”, and a real nice instant hit for me with “Saviour”! Finally, be sure 2 peep 2 solid trax from Akon & James Fauntleroy as well as the latest episode of ConsTV. Enjoy!
Thanks for bearin’ w/ me the past day or so w/ NEW trax that I got for ya here, starting off with a nice lyrical track from Jay Electronica and producer Just Blaze! They compliment each other really nicely as the beat does not overshadow Jay Electronica’s voice and lyrics, but rather enhances the power of them. Obama and social issues are quite the discussion in many of the trax in the post, including Jay’s up above, as well as the trax from Nas, Q-Tip, Busta, Jake One, Mikkey Halsted, & R&B’s Ray Lavender. In addition, Ne-Yo comes thru w/ a nice slow jam called “Piano” and Young Jeezy & Nas perform “My President Is Black” on Carson Daly! Still so excited about last nite and it’s starting 2 set in! For more Obama, including the updated FULL video of his victory speech last nite, CLICK HERE! Anyway, enjoy!
18 TRAX and some video premieres from the past couple days. Yesterday was once again a travel day for Tibs but I’m back w/ some Q-Tip featuring the future President of the United States?!?! Haha, snippets of Obama’s inspiring words are mixed with the N.Y. rapper’s track that I believe is on his upcoming album, The Renaissance, in stores 2morrow! Make sure 2 get out 2 the polls 2morrow as well: Election Day is almost here! I’m sure we’ll remind ya again 2morrow Anyway, there’s a bonus Q-Tip RMX of “Gettin’ Up” by DJ Scratch featuring Busta Rhymes and down below, predominantly R&B featuring some big names in Usher, Ne-Yo, Mario, Trey Songz, and MUCH MORE! You might like more than I do, but generally, I wasn’t feelin’ a lot of the new ish below. Also, don’t forget the video premieres at the bottom from Q-Tip, Freeway, & Craig David! Enjoy!
Here’s a small update for ur first day of November featuring a bunch of R&B trax, predominantly by Ne-Yo! Of the 3 released, I’m feelin’ his collabo w/ Fabolous the most as I feel both compliment each other nicely. It’s no “Make Me Better” but it’s def a solid track that could grow even more in my rotation. The other 2 are again solid, but don’t hit me the same as Ne-Yo trax usually do; however, they do have growing potential as well. JT comes thru on a unique StarGate beat that R&B fans should DL just 2 see if they are feelin’ it. I’m not sure how long that’ll take 2 grow on me, if at all. And finally, peep another track from up and comer James Fauntleroy and the latest installment of ConsTV! Enjoy!
