    KENDRICK LAMAR’s New Album ‘To Pimp A Butterfly’ (Album Stream) !!

    March 16, 2015 /

    Kendrick Lamar has one of the sickest albums ever in #HipHop #ToPimpAButterfly. Hypetrak write, "Looks like Kendrick Lamar's sophomore album "To Pimp A Butterfly" has been released on iTunes and Spotify way earlier than its anticipated March 23 date. The reasons of the early release are not currently clear, but TDE honcho Anthony Tiffith seems to be unhappy about it and took to Twitter to blame Interscope for the apparent mess-up. The album features guest appearances from Snoop Dogg, George Clinton, Ronald Isley, Rapsody, Thundercat,…

    Rae Sremmurd ft. NICKI MINAJ – “Throw Sum Mo” (VIDEO) *Explicit* via @lisafordblog

    March 15, 2015 /

    A strip-club inspired video for a strip-club song. "Throw Sum Mo" is laced with autotune which is my biggest pet peeve in Hip Hop, but this song is bumping. Mike WiLL Made-It, Migos, and Birdman all make cameo appearances at the 'roller-rink'. Rae Sremmurd's (the duo of Swae Lee and Slim Jimmy ) new album, “SremmLife” is available now.

    KENDRICK LAMAR Freestyles to Notorious B.I.G. Classics! (VIDEO) & Album Cover Art via @lisafordblog

    March 13, 2015 /

    "Democrips and Rebloodicans. Sick Kenny, sick.," one youtuber wrote after viewing this video. A video that serves as proof that KENDRICK LAMAR defines Hip Hop through and through. And right now, Hip-Hop is blessed. Kendrick and Wale will come out with releases in the same month. It's good to see this happen with all the trash that's been killing Hip Hop last year. J Cole got that last second drop which pretty much announced real hip hop is back. Sean dropped last month. Kendrick's and…

    @LOGIC301 – ‘5 A.M.’ (Audio & Video) @Lisafordblog’s IPOD Pick #HipHop

    March 11, 2015 /

    LOGIC is the best rapper of 2015 in my opinion. His latest album, "Under Pressure" defies logic because there is an heavy emphasis on raw lyricism in the lackluster new-school genre. "5 A.M.' is the 5th track on Logic's 'Welcome To Forever mixtape' and was titled as such because he wrote it at 5 in the morning. The beat and flow blows so hard, it puts you in a meditative state and sends you into a metaphorical shock from knowing that you are listening to…

    RUN DMC Is Bringing The House Down!!! In Miami Gardens #JITG via @lisafordblog

    March 11, 2015 /

    RUN DMC's influence on Hip Hop is stronger than the Earth's gravitational pull. After their reign, there is no where in the Universe any rapper would exist if RUN DMC hadn't pulled the trigger and fired out the most iconic music of our lifetimes. We're talking gangster flows with rock-hard horns over game-changing sound & production. Now the Supermen of rap have landed at the world famous JAZZ IN THE GARDENS music festival on March 21st & 22nd at the SunLife Stadium in Miami Gardens,…

    RAZ SIMONE – “Baby Jesus” (New Music) via @lisafordblog

    March 10, 2015 /

    Nah Right, "RAZ SIMONE continues to exhibit very little chill when it comes to releasing his new music. Just days after dropping his provocatively titled 'Macklemore Privilege & Chief on Keef Violence' project, he delivers the title track from his next album, Baby Jesus. This is dope."

    Watch: 2PAC, Grand Puba, and Treach’s CYPHER!! (Rare Video) via @lisafordblog #MusicMonday

    February 23, 2015 /

    First I have to mention that Grand Puba's "2000" should go down in the rap history books as a sheer classic album. I stand by that statement and I don't care what all the hip hop heads say lol. I've been debating Puba's status as a 'legend' for years in social media platforms, so to present this video with him, the greatest of all time, PAC, and Treach, comes with great honor. AmbrosiaForHeads writes, "Back in 1992, before the East Coast/West Coast beef was in…
