Still Bumpin' My Music...

Update to my last post...


Drake - Find Your Love



J. Cole - In The Morning



Jeezy feat. Algernod



Usher - There Goes My Baby



Jeezy - Greatest Trapper Alive



Usher feat. Will.I.Am - OMG

Scrumpets everywhere will be taking their little girls to see Plies

It appears that Algernod has some sort of conscience when it comes to the potential impact of his music. He gave some young girl a stack to leave his concert (1:45 in the video below). He should have given her mother an all expenses paid trip to a social worker. I give him props for this but maybe this will make him think a bit more about the content of his songs. Then again, it probably wont!


It's a pretty nice segue into "Becky", is it not?

By the way, what the frick is an Algernod? I guess calling yourself a "goon" is fitting when your gubment name is "Algernod". I'll assume this is an older family member's name that was passed along to him.

More Music

Usher - Love You Gently



This shyt right here! This shyt RIGHT HERE! The boy did his thing on this joint.



Common (ft. Skateboard P) - Universal Mind Control



Somebody told Common to "go head switch the style up/if nikkahs hate then let em hate, just watch the money pile up". This is a different look for Common but I actually like it since it shows some of his versatility. I'm still trying to wrap my head around what he's actually talking about though. Let me listen again....



Plies (ft. Jamie Foxx and The Dream) - Please Excuse My Hands



I don't really understand why Plies has been making so many "love" songs for the ladies but I guess that's his niche now. That might be the best business model for him though considering conscious gangsta rap (ie - "100 Years") does not sell as well as LL Cool J style rap. Ya'll know what I mean. I like Plies as a more gangster-ish rapper. His voice sounds a bit too country over these soft beats for me, but I guess these particular tracks aren't targeted at me anyway sooooo....



Mickey Factz - Good Money



I have been hearing a lot on the InterWeb about Mickey and his "The Leak" mixtape. The premise is that he leaks a track a day. I downloaded The Leak Volume 1 but I never listened and he's already got 3 tracks released for the second volume. I only listened to this track because of the 9th Wonder production and this shyt is kinda FIRE. Now I think I'm going to go back and listen to that mixtape.



Bloodraw (ft. Jeezy and Rick Ross) - Chevy Boyz



Bloodraw is a member of Jeezy's CTE crew and I might be the only person north of Atlanta that actually likes this dude. But I couldn't care less. I enjoy this guy's music even though he talks about the same stuff Jeezy talks about but in a wierd voice. But I also like Jeezy so go figure. As for Bloodraw...Is he a great lyricist? No. Is his flow on-point? Not really. Does he have anything that sets him apart from other trap-rappers? No. Yet-and-still, I have effed with Mr. Florida since his Gangsta Grillz mixtape, "Indictment Papers". Hopefully Blood steps his lyricism up a bit but keeps it gutter. In the meantime, I'm adding Chevy Boyz to my "Rider Music" playlist.



The Fixxers - Worldwide AM



I liked them the first time I heard them on "Can You Work With That" and they keep my attention on this one. The production is really what I love about this song (I assume it's DJ Quik).
