Video: Gods'illa feat Sean Price - Saviours & Punishers
I know I posted that Trinidad James joint the other day and I definitely like that track. But when it's time for that real hip-hop, gotta put something like this joint on.

Video: Gods'Illa ft. Maimouna Youssef - You Don't Have To Be A Star
Shot out (again) to the homies from back in the Suitland High School days. I'm not sure how long the video has been released but I'm glad Gods'Illa decided to shoot a visual for this song. Not sure if I like this joint or Sal's Pizzeria better.
It's great when you can support people's music because it's good and not just because you know them from back in the day.

Gods'Illa feat. Maimouna Youssef - You Don't Have to Be a Star (@godsilla)
I tried to tell ya'll...
"Dope beats, dope rhymes, what more do ya'll want?"
If you like hip-hop, get familiar with Gods'illa.

Real Hip-Hop: Gods'Illa
I won't even try to convince you that I posted this song here a long time ago...
I'm not even gonna say listen to it because I know 'em...
I'll just say that if you like real hip-hop, then you should listen... And then hit up the UAU Open Mic on Tuesdays in D.C.
This right here is proof that the grind pays off. Congrats on the video fellas! Looking forward to seeing ya'll blow up even more.

"It always sounds better when you turn it up loud" -- Too $hort
Every time I hear a new song that I really like it reminds me of that Too $hort line. I've had Drake, Jay-Z, Rick Ross, and Slaughterhouse in my rotation pretty heavy lately. Not to mention some bangers I've found on the InterWeb. But in the past week I've heard the songs below - all of which are new to me - and I like them a lot so I figured I'd get back into the routine of posting new music I like.
Usher - Papers

There seems to have been some hoopla about this song and whether or not he should air his personal business out in his music... yadda yadda yadda. What is music without some real emotion people? Aside from that, Usher has a history (ahem, Confessions anyone?) of airing out his personal business through his music. And the last time I checked, Confessions was Usher's BEST FRIGGIN WORK! With that said, if this upcoming "Raymond vs. Raymond" CD (is that title not hilarious to you, lol) is anything like Confessions then Usher's going to have ANOTHER classic on his hands. Music is therapy for some, entertainment for some, and somewhere in-between for others.
David Banner - Something's Wrong

Honestly, there's something about David Banner that strikes me as EXTRA and I don't really embrace his music that much because of it. But on every CD he has a couple songs that I really like whether it's because it's one of those country club bangers or because he's talking about something that I connect with. This song is a case of the latter.
Rick Ross - Special Situation

This is boiler-plate Ricky Rawse music right here and by now you know how much I fool with Officer Ricky. This guy sure has a knack for picking some good beats. BAWSE!
Bonus coverage of Rick...
GodsIlla - Got Ya'll

"Rhyme like a clock w/no hands, straight timeless". I have known these guys since high school and it's great to see their grind paying off. And it's even greater to be able to post their music because I truly like it and not because I feel obligated. This is real hip-hop! Check 'em out and get familiar.
Kid Cudi - Soundtrack to My Life

I don't usually have many positive things to say about Kid Cudi but this song cranks! Real life shytuations = REAL music.
Rich Boy - Haters Wish

I think I like this song because of the beat moreso than what Rich Boy is saying. I'm not going to lie though I think that (at times) Rich Boy's country twang along with the way he stresses certain words/phrases in his verses makes up for his lack of lyrical ability. He is also fairly good at picking good beats. And as a rapper, if you can't rap very well you better be good at picking out nice beats until you start rapping well (see: Rick Ross).
