Gucci Mane - Worst Enemy

HOT OR NOT: DIRTY MONEY FEAT. DRAKE - “HURT”




♫ Dirty Money feat. Drake - Hurt
Fresh off the heels of the release of their video for the single, “Love Come Down,” Dirty Money releases another track from the upcoming Last Train to Paris project.
The new track, entitled “Hurt,” is assisted by none other than fan-favorite, Drake. Although the track is cool, I am a little more eager to hear the fun, experimental stuff that Diddy discussed on Making His Band.

NEW MUSIC: SOLANGE - “STILLNESS IS THE MOVE”


♫ Solange - Stillness Is the Move
ALTERNATE LINK
Solange has been in and out of the studio, while still doing performances all over the world, working on her currently untitled third studio album.


When asked about the direction of the third album, Solange said that the new record will pick up where “This Bird” left off, experimenting with more electronic and down-beat elements. There presently is no release date for the album, but it’s good to hear some of the fruits of Solo’s labor.
It’s doubtful that the new track, “Stillness Is the Move,” a cover of the Dirty Projectors, which sample’s Dr. Dre’s “Xxplosive” (originally sampling Soul Mann & The Brothers’ “Bumpy’s Lament”), will make the album.

Gucci Mane Sentenced 12 Months For Probation Violation


Gucci Mane was sentenced to 12 months [6 months with good behavior] in prison on Thursday (November 12) for probation violation and taken away to prison in handcuffs, according to a rep from his label.

The sentence is a blow to Gucci’s career. The ATL rapper has a album coming out — The State Vs. Radrick Davis — on December 8 and is arguably at the height of his career; in terms of his sentence, he may be out of prison in six months. Last September, Gucci went to jail and served until March; he was sentenced to a year in prison for failing to fulfill his court-ordered 600 hours of community service, which had been mandated in 2005.

OAKLAND iSH:"Da Town Remix": Yukmouth & Co.

Yuk brings out the OGs and the young guns for a good 'ol Oakland posse cut. The kid London holds down the vocals and of course Richie Rich shows up– it is a remix after all. There's just one thing Yuk, when you say you're, "quarterbacking like Jamarcus Russel," folks are going to think that means you suck. I'm just saying.
