I had a feeling this was gonna be fresh. Dido's eerie voice from Eminem's "Stan" will always be mine (and most everyone's) first association with the British singer, but she's coming back with a brand new single and tabs Kendrick Lamar for that dope new feature. This one's nice from beginning to end - an instant *Tibs Fav.
Well, well, well, we meet again for another one of my RiP's Top 5 Songs of The Week. Let's jump right into because I know you all having been waiting on this(wishful thinking).
This was already one of the more solid tracks from Cruel Summer to me, and I was always curious why 2 Chainz was even on the song with such a short verse. This was a good come back and 2 Chainz did his thing by himself.
I bet this is a real surprise, I have a Big Boi track in my Top 5(internet sarcasim). Once again Big Boi delivers, to bad this one didn't make the final cut, but I will be adding it to my iPod none the less.
Having Kendrick Lamar on your album has become as important to rappers as a Stove to a chef. Even though only on the hook I think most people will attract to the song because they'll see featuring Kendrick Lamar. Dope song regardless, and Scarface is still a beast even after not releasing much in the past.
This soundtrack is starting to sounding like it might be one best to come out in a long time as far as urban music goes. John Legend delivered on this just like Ross did last week.
First let me start off by saying that Common KILLED his verse. I was looking forward to an actual verse from Ye, but the song still was pretty dope.
So that's this weeks list, if you got opinions feel free to voice them in the comments of to me on Twitter.Until next week friends, two fingers to the side.
If you had to pick one Rookie of the Year in hip hop this year, how couldn't it be Kendrick Lamar? The Source crowns the Los Angeles emcee for the cover of their ROY issue, seen above with photoshoot footage seen below. This is also right in line with my Kyrie Irving comparison in the NBA Awards I did at the top of this season!
