    SNOOP DOGG – “So Many Pros” (Music Video) New Music! via @lisafordblog

    April 14, 2015 /

    SNOOP's video for "So Many Pros" plays more like an epic blaxploitation film from the 70's. West Coast rap artistry is known for it's 70's funk roots, and with "So Many Pro" (produced by Pharrell), off of Snoop's BUSH album, that pimp era is brought back into light. What you're about to see is probably one of the most creative music videos in Hip Hop, produced by French director Francois Rousselet — who previously worked with Kanye West, Madonna, and others. The female 'Snoop' from…

    KENDRICK LAMAR Performs “Untitled” On The Colbert Report – New Music!! (VIDEO) via @lisafordblog

    December 17, 2014 /

    Let's all pray that KENDRICK LAMAR drops his album on Christmas without warning. That would be crazy! Artists like Kdot is why I consider Hip Hop to be the "master genre" of all genres. The pure poetry of it all. Words are so important, so incredibly amazing in rap, other genres just can't compare. Kendrick will be a legend up there with Biggie, Nas, Em, 2pac, Rakim, and the rest. Could even outshine them all in due time. His song, "Untitled" is amazing.

    SOULS OF MISCHIEF ft. SNOOP DOGG – “There Is Only Now” (New Music!!)

    June 29, 2014 /

    Back in 1993, the classic hip hop group, SOULS OF MISCHIEF, released one of my favorite hip hop songs of all time... “93′ TIL INFINITY” (the track Rick Ross used for his new release, ‘Thug Cry’). Their new hit, “There Is Only Now”, is real and good hip hop and we need more of this! All the old school vets should return just like SOULS OF MISCHIEF to take back the hip hop game and bring it back to its roots! “There Is Only Now”…

    Far East Movement – “The Illest” (Music Video) LISA FORD’s IPOD Pick

    June 29, 2014 /

    "The Illest" by the FAR EAST MOVEMENT reminds me of that Katy Perry & Juicy J "Dark Horse" song with the deep bass, hip hop-infused rock combination. This song only has 4 million Youtube views versus their other projects that reached 30, 40, 50 million views and beyond. I guess a lot of people aren't feeling it, crediting the bass line as the only thing good about it. FAR EAST MOVEMENT, the hip hop quartet reppin' in Los Angeles, grew insanely popular after their song…

    DOM KENNEDY (ft. TeeFlii) “STILL CALLIN” – (Music Video)

    March 2, 2014 /

    California rapper, DOM KENNEDY, makes music you can't skip and "STILL CALLIN" is proof. He dropped his 2nd album titled, "Get Home Safely" back in October, which soundly represents the West Coast in the high-stakes hip hop arena. "Still Callin" is a great choice for your IPOD hip hop mix because it has that slow-roasting beat with a haunting treble line sprinkled over deep bass. This sh*t Bang.. I have this song on constant repeat.
