Album of the Week: Jay-Z: American Gangster



Is this a comeback album or what!? "Spazzing out" does not even sum up the fire Jay spits on some of these tracks. If I had some flawed rinky dink system for rating albums(Cough), then I would probably give this the classic stamp. Whoa!?!?, some of you are saying. Well hey, just be happy I don't have one of those flawed rinky dink systems for rating albums (Cough). I like the album per say, however there are Nay Sayer's out there, so I will leave you to judge the album.

Notables for my self are, well everything except Brooklyn 2.0...sorry Wayne, but...yea It Sucked. How did that happen anyway? I mean, "Heeeeeeellllllooooo, Brooklyn!!"(Low key my favorite part, but I digress). I guess money means a lot(Duh!). Well again, like always, I have beat the system, a Lil earlier than this, but who's keeping track. The album is at the bottom. If it doesn't start automatically then just scroll down to it and press play. In the words of Jay-Z, "Let That Bitch Breath"..uno

Hyphenated at its Best: D-Town Youngin'




Excerpt from his myspace:

"Bentley Green, aka…BG is a young and energetic kid who loves to rap. BG was born in Dallas, TX. An attractive outgoing child, Bentley was two years old when he started rapping. His passion for the art and his love for the beat makes it seems as if God designed him to entertain the world. At the young age of 6, Bentley Green has achieved more than the average 6-yr old. This young artist is full of versatility, talent and determination. Bentley is well on his way to living out his dream of becoming an accomplished entertainer.

An exceptionally bright youngster, Bentley excels in the classroom. He was found to have intelligence beyond his young 6-years. He is a year ahead of himself in school. He loves to swim, eat pizza and rap. Constantly on the move, it is not uncommon to see Bentley dancing all day long, making up routines and rapping as he goes along. Going from jungle gyms in the park to hot tracks in the studio, you can bet BG is definitely working on his way to being in the spotlight.

Daily you can find him working on new tracks, new beats and ways to strengthen his vocabulary. He also participated in the grand opening of the 2nd largest Wal-mart in Dallas. He performed at the Annual Hip Hop Summit and Texas Music Conference. The Dallas Maverick’s filmed Bentley performing his Maverick song and played it before all the home games during the playoffs. Recently he was a guest on the Ellen DeGeneres Show and was asked by Disney to audition for feature film. BG is quickly becoming a household name and continues to be in high demand for performances throughout the world."

Missy Elliott: Pioneer...

You know I was a little skeptical about why Missy Elliott was being honored at VH1's Hip Hop honors this year. I mean, she is fairly new to the game, but After watching her segment I am convinced she deserved it....cause I mean Kerry Washington said it all, "she took the negativity out of the word bitch..and turned it in to a powerful strong word for women every..." what?? So now y'all like to be called Bitch? Man thank you Missy...Bitch Bitch Bitchety Bitch Bitch Bitch...Just Kidding, I fucks with Missy, "No Sexual". Hmm....might wanna rephrase that one ma ma....but you are damn sexy I must say...
lol..I know What you want Ma Ma....

Peace.Love.H-life
