FULL, CDQ, Track off upcoming album, 808’s & Heartbreak *Tibs Fav.™
MORE Kanye from 808’s & Heartbreak! Someone definitely leaked out the album or most of it cuz I’m pretty sure Kanye only wanted “Amazin’” out 2day. So this is our last post on the CDQ trax from the upcoming album. Ya’ll are goin 2 buy it in stores anyway in less than 2 weeks! But anyway, the Lil’ Wayne collabo is my favorite of the two above and certainly better than their Graduation collaboration, “Barry Bonds”. I love the production on the track and their voices are enhanced and more powerful because of that. Idk about some of the lyrics by Weezy but it’s a track that I’ll be bumpin’ for sure. “Street Lights” is a lil’ more chill and more Kanye pourin’ out his emotions. Even though I might side with some of his fans out there that want another pure hip hop album from Mr. West, the direction of this album is something that I admire and above all, it’s good music. I love the emotion that Kanye displays throughout all the leaked tracks so far and his singing, autotune, and everything else hasn’t become annoying, rather it has only enhanced the emotion portrayed on the tracks. Consequently, Kanye West is connecting to a wider audience that can better relate to Kanye West, the person. 808’s & Heartbreak will be in stores November 24th!
Down below, a bunch more trax and videos featuring a lot of Swizz Beatz, a massive collabo w/ Ne-Yo, and some solid R&B trax from Jamie Foxx, Brandy, Marques Houston, & Ray L! Make sure u don’t miss anythin’ u might like. 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!
Wow, def wanted 2 come thru w/ an update sooner, but this is truly a yawnfest of a large update for ya honestly. Songz comes thru w/ yet another cover - this time of Jazmine Sullivan. Hey, I’m not complaining, he actually does the covers/RMXs of all these hit songs very well. This one is another solid example. Below, ehhhhhh on most of those trax as u can see from the Tibs Favs. I’m just goin’ 2 throw on “Swagga Like Us” & Year Of The Gentleman and be back later. Enjoy!
FULL, CDQ, Rumored track off upcoming album, Joe Thomas, New Man*Tibs Fav.™
Bunch of NEW R&B for ya ears, starting with a sweet track from Joe, which I can see as the opening track for his upcoming album. The lyrics, as u can imagine, apply 2 his re-definition of himself and involves some interesting metaphors as well. It’s not a slow jam as I first thought it would be, rather an uptempo track. Down below, are a couple more uptempo trax by Ray Lavender that are very solid, a couple nice Fabolous features, & a slow jam by Chris Brown and Andre Merritt (I have this strange feeling he used 2 be a WR for the Bears? haha, maybe same name, different guy situation.. anyway I digress…) and it is also a nice track that R&B fans would enjoy! Finally, peep a Lupe Fiasco interview @ the bottom! Enjoy!
Oh, and we’re back 2 zShare now - seems like international users can access the site like they used 2. Thx 2 ash in the UK for the heads up!
Here’s a couple more R&B trax that just surfaced, the first being a pounding slow jam by Chris Brown! Real nice, sexually charged lyrics here, haha, as the track as a whole reminds me more of a classic R&B track, as opposed 2 the fast, club R&B trax we’re used 2 with Chris Brown. Vocally, CB is definitely no Usher, but he is still nice on this track, and better than he usually is on slow jams. Def a quality R&B track that ya’ll should DL above! Below, is another solid R&B track by Ray Lavender.. just 2 much going on with background vocals that I think hurts the track, more than helps. Finally, for all those slow pokes that still don’t have T.I.’s first single, after the video premiered earlier this week, u can DL that below as well! Enjoy!
Producer: Drumma Boy - FULL, CDQ, Rumored track off upcoming album, Paper Trail*Tibs Fav.™
Happy Independence Day with a TON of NEW trax, including the latest from T.I.P. up above.. He goes a lil’ slow flow on the chorus, trying 2 recapture some “What You Know” magic, and I think it is effective on first-listen, but we’ll see how long that lasts. It is a quality track that the T.I. fans should enjoy and it could very well be the first single off Paper Trail. Down below, u gotta DL a couple trax from Chicago artists - Naledge & Malik Yusef. The Malik Yusef is pretty much a spoken word and it’s pretty cool. Both are MUST-DLs. And finally, check out the boatload of NEW R&B trax (in large part, thanks 2 Urban Music) featuring Ne-Yo, Trey Songz, Lloyd, Mario, Bobby Valentino, & MORE! I still need more listens, but on first listen.. Mario “Do For Love” & Trey Songz “High Definition” I’m really feelin’. We’ll see how that develops over time, but u should judge for yourself and DL above & below, in addition 2 a couple videos f/ Mariah Carey, T.I., & The Cool Kids at the bottom! Enjoy!
BIG update featuring an unreleased track from the Chicago/Detroit hip hop duo - The Cool Kids! Ya’ll should kno them already anyway and they’re back with another nice track. The lyrics aren’t the deepest but its a cool track for the sneakerheads out there and set 2 another dope, unique beat that defines the sound of The Cool Kids! Also above is a bonus interview with Karmaloop TV! Down below, we got the latest from Bullet himself with the song “Get It” produced by Chuck Inglish of The Cool Kids. So if you like the beats of The Cool Kids, you’ll definitely wanna DL Bullet’s track for more of the same!
Further down, check out a nice, uptempo R&B track produced by one of my favorite up and coming producers - J. Lack (Usher’s brother) by Ryon Lovett & Ne-Yo! You can also find the latest from the mainstream with NEW trax from T-Pain, Lloyd, and VIDEO PREMIERES from Nelly & Ray Lavender, AND finally a LIVE performance of The Game’s latest hit, “Pain” f/ Keyshia Cole! Enjoy!
FULL, CDQ, Rumored track off upcoming EP, The Bake Sale EP*Tibs Fav.
***Turns out the track is officially called “Bassment Party” and NOT “Miami Beach”***
Cool Kids! Lovin’ that promo pic (and the Bulls logo in it :D) for “Chicago’s next great hip-hop duo” and the tracks above for “Miami Beach” prove exactly why. What a unique sound and flow from the duo on this fly track that ya’ll should DL above! Below u can also check out the latest from Luda and Pharoahe Monch and a Common Freestyle vid! (Shouts 2 J.D.) Enjoy!
Lupe just dropped the “Paris, Tokyo” premiere on his YouTube channel and as I expected, came thru with a sweet video filled with fantastic imagery that I was expecting with lyrics highlighting some of the world’s most beautiful cities. Lovin’ his whole get up - the nice suit on the train and the explorer hat and glasses in Cairo, haha. I thought the single was a great choice since everyone can relate to being far away from a loved one or significant other, got that catchy chorus, and the lyrics and content of the song allow the video to be creative and enhance the song even more to appeal to a wide audience. Let’s hope “Paris, Tokyo” takes off like “Superstar” did here in the States… “or home..Brazil.. for real”. haha… anyway.. enjoy!
And below, DL some NEW music featuring legendary soul singer Al Green, who teamed up with The Roots’ ?uestlove for the 2 trax below and on the rest of his upcoming album, Lay It Down. The 2 trax below feature some of 2day’s best soul singers in John Legend & Corinne Bailey Rae! You can also find a NEW Akon/Ray Lavender collabo - a nice new-age R&B track. Man, talk about laid-back, if ur in that mood, everything in this post is for u! Big ups 2 Adam! Enjoy!
A bunch of cool vids and trax for 2day, including the video for Usher’s latest MEGA-HIT “Love In This Club” f/ Young Jeezy and a bunch of cameos in the video, including the incredibly sexy Keri Hilson as the lead female. (2 my boys back home who don’t think she’s gorgeous… I rest my case.) Definitely a must-see for Usher fans as his next album, Here I Stand is currently slated 2 open up the summer in a big way on May 27th! Some NEW trax below, might be able 2 get some smaller trax up later in the next couple days, but as stated in the shoutbox, I’m goin 2 be mad busy btwn now and late Tuesday night. So this might be last update til then and then I’ll get up a lot of trax, including ALL the requests. Don’t wry, I see ya. Just one more note before I’m out - that NEW One Chance/”J. Lack track mayne” is retarded (in a good way)! MUST-DL for sure (and that’s Usher in the intro btw!) Enjoy!
