    RIP MF DOOM!! Fck 2020!!!

    MF DOOM, the man behind the mask, is one of the best to ever do it. In honor of his birthday, I chose to post an incredible song and an ode to real Hip Hop, DOOMSDAY off of DOOM's much sought after album; "Operation: Doomsday". In regards to his collaboration with Clarks Original Shoe Collection, DOOM feels that it's a perfect partnership. When speaking about why he is so widely popular and on his rare form of creativity, MF Doom states, "I try to come…

    RODDY RICCH – “THE BOX” [Official Music Video] via @lisafordblog

    All I can say about Roddy Rich dropping the visuals for his hit record, The Box is…about damn time. Rolling Stone writes, ” If you’ve taken a look at the charts or turned on the radio at all this year, the story is blindingly clear: Roddy Ricch‘s “The Box” is 2020’s first dominant hit. Released at the tail-end of 2019 on Roddy’s debut album, Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial, “The Box” took everyone (likely including Roddy himself) by surprise “ Lisa Ford’s crime novella, South Beach…

    ALFRED HITCHCOCK on #Music in His Films #Flashback Interview (Audio) + #Eminem’s (Video) for “Darkness”

    Portrait of Alfred Hitchcock by Antonio Mossucca This is just a quick blog post to pay homage to the great American horror filmmaker, Alfred Hitchcock, Eminem’s muse for his latest album, Music To Be Murdered By. I wonder if Hitchcock knew that one day his style and his 1958 album, the original Music To Be Murdered by would inspire the biggest name in Hip Hop. In this 1972 interview with BBC, Hitchcock reiterates on his 1932 statement that the music in his films and the editing…

    G-EAZY ft. Gunna – “I Wanna Rock” (Official Video)

    All I can say about G-EAZY’S new hit… is that he drops some serious bars. That shot at Halsey 💀 “ No Limit all I got is Me, Myself, and I, when I said it was her & I that shit was a lie .” Ok G-Eazy, we hear ya! This beat does remind me of Venom by Eminem but I love the raw unfiltered lyrics. Even the chorus has a raw sentiment, a G-Eazy reply to the seemingly large amount of hate he seems…

    ROYCE 5’9 – “Black Savage” ft. Sy Ari Da Kid, White Gold, CyHi The Prynce & T.I. (Official Video)

    Before you ask, the sample song in Royce da 5’9′s banger is Kothbiro by Ayub Ogada from Kenya. The sample says the rain is coming, bring the cattle back home….that’s a language from the Luo Tribe in Kenya. Black Savage is so inspiring. I’m proud of this. My bottom line review of Royce’s Black Savage? Royce killed this, point blank. CyHi had something to say, and TI can literally read a dictionary to me and I’ll be down with it. Sick production, Royce, sick verse,…

    Netflix’s RHYTHM & FLOW’s – Londynn B “I Can’t Change” (Video) via @lisafordblog

    So I’ve been watching Netflix’s Rhythm & Flow for a few days now and I have to say that I’m pleasantly surprised. I’m not usually into music competition shows because a lot of times, talented people get eliminated for frivolous reasons which makes it all a hard watch for me. However, the Rhythm & Flow series is nice because the judges; T.I., Chance The Rapper, and Cardi B, are a dynamic trio who truly brings something special to a music competition show. It’s apparent that…

    Gorgon City, MK – ‘There For You’ (Music Video)

    Gorgon City put on a masterpiece of a performance during Coachella 2019 and we simply fell in love with the band after that incredible live show. The UK duo, consisting of Kye Gibbon and Matt Robson-Scott, have developed a huge international presence garnering over 700+ million combined streams to date, and playing to enormous crowds around the world. They are also well known for our favorite, their 2014 single “Ready for Your Love”, a revival of that 90’s Crystal Waters’ “Gypsy Woman” era in American…

    MACHINE GUN KELLY – ‘Rap Devil’ #EminemDiss (Music Video) via @lisafordblog #Hardcore

    Machine Gun Kelly must have balls of steel to challenge the greatest rapper alive, Eminem. I don’t care how big of a fan you are of Eminem’s, anybody with ears have to admit that MGK’s Rap Devil is hard as hell..just sick..I’m in awe. In the video, MGK holds a symbolic shovel. He appears to be burying Eminem with his lyrics. It’s cuts like Rap Devil and albums like Kamikaze by the one and only Eminem, that keeps Hip Hop as a dominating force in the universe.…

    1PLAYY – “Nascar” (Music Video) Dope Artist from East Atlanta @1Playy_ @lisafordblog

    I was listening to the Rickey Smiley Morning Show last week when they were broadcasting live from Alabama at Alabama State University. Rapper 1PLAYY touched the mic live on air, and for the first time in a long while, I turned the volume up on regular radio. The beat is sick, the hook is catchy, and the energy and delivery compliment each another on his new song Nascar. I’m looking forward to see what 1PLAYY drops next.

    JOYNER LUCAS – “I’m Not Racist” (VIDEO) *Warning* Not For the Faint-Hearted via @lisafordblog

    JOYNER LUCAS just released some real music that is going to give a lot of people cognitive dissonance and hopefully give different people a wider view on the subject which can help to get a better understanding of different opinions. No matter how you interpret JOYNER LUCAS’ very provocative “I’m Not Racist” music video, perspective is an evident topic and this song serves as a catalyst for continuing dialogue on race relations in the U.S. When I clicked on the video from Twitter, I initially…
