JAY ROCK – “Money Trees Deuce” A sequel to Kendrick Lamar’s (Audio) via @lisafordblog
"Of the many highlights off Kendrick Lamar’s debut studio album good kid, m.A.A.d city, he and Jay Rock’s cut “Money Trees” gave us one of the best hooks of 2012 (forever thankful for “It go Halle Berry, or hallelujah”). Also, Rock’s charged verse contrasted with the lower-key energy of his TDE label mate. If “Money Trees Deuce” is any indication, maybe currency-bearing forestation is the corner Jay Rock will rep from now until forever. “Deuce” has a more melancholic feel to it, not that the…

EMINEM – “Phenomenal” (New Music!) Audio via @lisafordblog
EMINEM drops #Phenomenal from the 'Southpaw' Soundtrack. AmbrosiaForHeads writes, "As he’s done on a plethora of films—including his own, Eminem has been tasked with the soundtrack centerpiece to Antoine Fuqua’s Southpaw. Produced by DJ Khalil (Self Scientific), the song showcases Em’s fast-rap ways. Inside the verse, which aims to inspire all to find their inner-fighter. Eminem uses the opportunity to describe his ongoing comeback, from an MC on hiatus in the mid-2000s, to an artist out to again grab Grammy’s, plaques, and drive the fan…

TECH N9NE ft. EMINEM – “Speedom” ( #MusicMonday ) via @lisafordblog
I was a little afraid when I heard Eminem was going to attempt to be on a song with the vicious TECH 9... I thought Eminem wouldn't be able to handle it. But damn! It's official. Nobody can f*ck with Shady. Holy sh*t!!

RIHANNA – “Bitch Better Have My Money” (New Music) AUDIO via @lisafordblog
RIHANNA IS BACK with a new single, "Bitch Better Have My Money" and it's pretty cool! In lieu of the title, I was expecting maybe an ode to the originator, Rapper AMG, who coined the phrase in a song on his "Greatest Humps Volume One" album in 2002. But RiRi's version will certainly do.

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

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