Verbal Kent “Go Cubs Go (2008 Hip Hop Version)”

FULL, CDQ *Tibs Fav.™ *GWHH Exclusive*

So Chi-Town’s own, Verbal Kent, reached out to us with this timely exclusive - a hip hop version of the classic Chicago Cubs theme song “Go Cubs Go” that rings through Wrigley Field after every W (and let’s hope that will continue in October!). As a ridiculously huge Cubs fan, I’ll be glued to the TV or maybe at Wrigley for the playoffs this year and the city is straight up buzzing as this is the best chance in recent history that the Cubs will break their 100 year World Series drought (Oh, and I suppose the South Siders may be chatting a lil’ bit as well as they sneaked into the playoffs themselves less than an hour ago.. hmmph..) As for Verbal Kent, he is not just a no-namer from Chicago, as evidenced by his recent ink in the hip hop magazine, XXL, and you can peep his MySpace HERE! Much props 2 VK for the creative rhymes centered around the starters and pitching staff as well as the bench players, announcers, and more! Of course, Go Cubs Go!

Down below… FIFTEEN NEW TRACKS! You gotta find somethin’ u like, especially the R&B fans out there as the NEW trax from heavyweights Trey Songz, Ne-Yo, & Mario are ones that will be in my rotation for some time 2 come as well as some of the unknowns, specifically that Jason Derulo track that is striking a chord w/ me. Hip hop fans will see a couple Paper Trail bonus trax that are definitely good enough 2 be on the album (and I got the album 2day… it’s ridiculous.. expect a review soon!). Really feelin’ “I Know You Missed Me”! Sorry couldn’t get up on here earlier, but Tuesdays are my busy day. Off 2 the gym fools; Enjoy!

Old School Chicago Hip Hop

Common Battles Kanye - 03:40

For Old School Sundays, I was thinkin’ of some Chicago stuff 2 put up and I stumbled upon a video that interested me… a collaboration of underground and rare hip hop from artists of Chicago. They include Twista, The Legendary Traxter, Juice, Quazaar f/ Verbal Kent, but the highlight is the much-talked about freestyle battle between CHI-Town legends Common & Kanye West, before they were CHI-Town legends! They playfully went at each other and the story was that Common won the battle (as told on his Finding Forever DVD if I’m not mistaken) and I think I’d agree altho ‘Ye comes with the best (and weakest) lines. Judge for yourself above! And below, some NEW-school Chicago trax - from up and comer Mikkey Halsted (thx again Andrew) and the R&B representatives, One Chance! CHI-TOWN UP! Enjoy!

***And a special, happy 31st birthday goes out 2 the biggest name in the rap game 2day… Mr. Kanye West! Much love from everyone at GWHH and all your fans! Congrats on the wave of success and here’s 2 another great year for u, Kanye! - Max G., Sgt. Tibs, & gowhere?***
