Yo Gotti - Cocaine Muzik 4.5 (Da Documentary) →
The first three Cocaine Muzik’s were above average, especially the third, but the fourth which featured Zedzilla in a move similar to Cam’ron’s Boss Of All Bosses inclusion of Vado, was a step backwards for YA BOY YO GOTTI. 4.5 is probably the best of the series, surprisingly; only one Zedzilla feature, and it’s on a song with the most interesting rapper alive, Gucci...

Gucci Mane - The Burrprint [Hulk Edition] →
This is an excellent chopped and screwed tape, that I happened to find on the internet and can’t give any credit to the DJ due to it only being available in one spot (what up pyrexmuzik) and no mention of who’s behind it. Regardless, this is arguably Gucci’s greatest collection of work to date, and Gucci sounds like a lispy Satan under the influence of lean. It also helps that...

WatchRoscoe Dash - TTU (Zone 4/Interscope, 2010)
Now THIS is the Roscoe Dash I wanna hear. Too Turnt Up; spitting that ATL swag rap to perfection over Nard and B’s synth-heavy production, creating an anthem for every cat out there with a padded vest and mohawk. Or you know, people less trendy with as much swag. probably more swag. Regardless, Roscoe proves he can spit on this track, and Ready!...

WatchRoscoe Dash (feat. T-Pain & Fabo) - My Own Step (Interscope, 2010)
I’ve written of my affection for Roscoe’s confection-stand rap before, and I’ve praised Fabo for being one of the pioneer’s of Atlanta’s current rap scene. However, this song just isn’t good. No wonder it’s in Step Up 3D. Regardless, hopefully this can help Roscoe’s album see the...

Curren$y - Pilot Talk [REVIEW]
Ya’ll ready know Spitta’s backstory, so let’s just get to the music here. Pilot Talk is a hard album to critique; not because it doesn’t leave anything to be written about, or that it’s so blunt (no blunts were used in the production of this album - easy-widers and bamboo were, certainly) that it leaves no room for expression. The bottom line is that...

Waka Flocka f/ Uncle Murda & Ra Diggs “By The Gun”(1017 Bricksquad/Mizay Ent., 2010)
Murder music from the forthcoming Flockaveli. Produced by Lex Luger.
Visuals from Figvrati Films.

I still miss the Salute Me Or Shoot Me Flocka. Although he hasn’t changed his subject matter up, and he’s still making that hardcore Southern rap, it’s less...

WatchRick Ross (feat. Styles P) - B.M.F. (Blowin’ Money Fast) (Maybach Music/Def Jam, 2010)
Amazing what a more experienced rapper can do with Lex Luger’s production; I praise both this and MC Hammer not long after the Albert Anastasia EP dropped, but focused more firmly on MC Hammer that day. BMF is just as dope, even if Jeezy one-upped Ross by getting the REAL BIG MEECH on his...

WatchRick Ross (feat. Curren$y & Wiz Khalifa) - Super High (Remix) (internet, 2010)
Maybach Music x Jets x Taylor Gang. Three of my favorite rappers at the moment (two of whom have albums out in the next two weeks), and this is as a good as a smoking anthem as you’re gonna get in 2010. This remix should be on Teflon Don instead of the originally; oh well. Teflon Don, July 20th; Pilot Talk,...

WatchCurren$y (feat. Trademark & Young Roddy) - Roasted (Blu Roc/Def Jam, 2010)
Curren$y’s second single (apparently) from Pilot Talk gets its own music video. I like this song a good bit, but it’s still not quite as strong as the other leaks from Pilot Talk. Regardless, Ski and Curren$y are a match made in heaven. Pilot Talk dropping July 13th; this shit is leak proof, I swear.

Big Boi - Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son Of Chico...
If you recall my review of Speakerboxxx, you’ll remember that I called Big Boi’s true debut the best OutKast album of the Aughts. I stand by that statement; although Stankonia was their best album as a duo, Speakerboxx was a far more consistent project, and contained less filler than their mainstream breakthrough. Idlewild was a good project, for what it was, but the album was far...

WatchMaino - Get ‘Em, Tiger (Hustle Hard, 2010)
as far as I’m concerned, Maino’s debut, If Tomorrow Comes…, was one of the best debuts of 2009, and showcased one of the brightest rappers coming out of New York. He reminds me of a northern Jeezy, with his penchant for sing-along simple hooks, and his similar trap-or-die mentality. With time, he’ll only get better; I hope...

WatchYoung Jeezy - I’m Just Sayin’ (CTE, 2010)
I’ve never mentioned before how much I dig these Decatur Dan videos; the simplistic black and white videos that have been directed for all the videos off of ToD2 and Lose My Mind have all been more than effective, and some of my favorites from this year for their simplicity alone. The age of video-hos is nearly dead, and I think...

Fonzworth Bentley & E1 to Drop C.O.L.O.U.R.S. →
so, yes, Fonzworth HAS inked a new deal. Apparently I’m about two weeks late, but who really keeps up with Fonzworth Bentley? I’m glad to hear that C.O.L.O.U.R.S. is finally gonna drop in the next few months. I’ll cop.

WatchBig Boi (feat. Vonnegutt) - Follow Us (Def Jam, 2010)
Big Boi and his pack of white kids hooked up for this video, off the absolutely flawless Sir Lucious Left Foot, which I’ll get around to reviewing here eventually. What do I have to say about the album right now? It’s perfect from start to finish, and it’s easily an album of the year candidate. Do not sleep on this album;...

16 minutes of Albarn and co. that feels part Spongebob, part Pirates of the Caribbean, part Gilligan, part Popeye, and all parts awesome. This is strange, needless to say. Strange but great.

Waka Flocka Flame - Flockaveli (Teaser) (internet, 2010)
Probably the best thing I’ve heard from Waka all year, despite the fact that Waka does little more than jack Biggie’s I Got A Story to Tell. This is the teaser to Flocka’s upcoming Flockaveli tape, which, despite the dissapointment of LFJ2, I’m looking forward to.

I’ve always supported this record, but dude, what in the FLYING FUCK is going on in this video? Inflated heads, horse and carriages, and a whole gang of kids is not something I ever thought I’d see from Mr. Davis, but this song is already as fucking weird as anything I’ve ever heard. It’s still...

The great three-song stretch on Dream’s Love King gets an entire 12-plus minute video dedicated to it. Starting with Dream’s ode to Prince, Yamaha, followed by the bridge that serves as a sequel to 2007’s epic Nikki, and the conclusion, which is one of Terius’ many heart-stricken love-ballads, Abyss, closes this...
