DJ Khaled – Fed Up ft. Usher, Young Jeezy, Rick Ross & Drake
In typical Khaled fashion he load this one up with any rapper that is relevant. I like this line up. DRIZZY!
This is the first single of Khaled’s upcoming album titled Victory.

50 Cent – Pshyco ft. Eminem (Prod. By Dr. Dre)
50 Cent – So Disrespectful (Prod. By Tha Bizness)
I’m not the worlds biggest 50 fan but I’ll acknowledge he is a very successful MC. Dope production from Dr. Dre and Tha Bizness.
These are both off 50’s upcoming album Before I Self Destruct which leaked today. This one hurts – his album wasn’t supposed to drop till November 23th. Ah well ha!
LMAO at posting 50 and Khaled/Ross tracks in the same post!

BET Hip-Hop Awards: The Cyphers
As I fast forwarded through the BET Hip-Hop Awards last night these cyphers were easily the highlights of the night.
Up top we have Mos Def, Black Thought and Eminem. Ridiculous. I got goosebumps watching all three of these guys spit.
Below we have KRS-One, Wale, Nipsey Hussle and Gsan. Further down Nicki Minaj, Joe Budden (fuckin’ kills it), Buckshot and Crown Royyal.
The one and only DJ Premier on the 1s & 2s.
This is hip-hop people.

The homie Trey Lane (Sioux Falls, SD) shows how it’s done with this track he just sent to my inbox. Trey recruits Rhymesayer Toki Wright for a real dope verse. Dope to see Toki on a guest verse. Trey sent another track to my inbox but I haven’t seen him leak it on the net yet. I’ll hold off for now. Trey gave me the go ahead!
Trey’s album All Things Considered is set to be released December 8th.

DJ Benzi Presents – The Elitaste CMJ Mixtape + Mike Posner – Drug Dealer Girl (Remix) ft. Wale
DJ Benzi Presents -The Elitaste CMJ Mixtape
In celebration of my first CMJ showcase, presented with Puma and NUE Agency, I thought it’d be fitting to have my man DJ Benzi put together a mixtape featuring Elitaste artists (Wale, Mike Posner, Shawn Chrystopher, PRGz, Frontrunner) as well as everyone on the bill for CMJ. Featuring new, old and exclusive tracks from Mike Posner, Wale, Camp Lo, Theophilus London and more, this mixtape will not only get you hype for the showcase, but will carry you through a cold winter. Enjoy!
Via Elitaste.
Well this has a lot of dope stuff on it. A lot of unreleased stuff as well as previously released stuff that is most definitely worth checking out….and most importantly Wale hops on Mike Posner’s “Drug Dealer Girl.” I could see Wale & Pharrell joint becoming a hit too.
Featuring: Mike Posner – Drug Dealer Girl (Remix) ft. Wale
Lil Wayne – Swag Surfin’ x Wasted + Timbaland – Rumors ft. Keri Hilson & Jay-Z
Thank god. The real Weezy F. Baby is back. Off his highly anticipated No Ceilings mixtape – which is sure to bring some credibility back to Wayne. Yup – he lost some in my book with all that Rebirth garbage.
I’m sure you can guess the beat selection based off the song titles.
Full mixtape drops on Halloweezy.
On a side note – Wayne could face a year in jail for weapon possession charges in New York. Damn – read more here.
+++
Timbaland – Rumors ft. Keri Hilson & Jay-Z
When I immediately looked at this track I figured it was sure to be a hit in the making. Not so much – but a new Jay verse is always nice. I hate slamming Timbaland but I haven’t heard any fire from him lately…just saying.
Shock Value 2 drops Nov. 23rd.
Drake – Forever (Chicago RMX) ft. S-Preme, LA, & Bullet + The Cool Kids & Hey Champ – (We Are) Champions
Drake “Forever (Chicago RMX)” ft. S-Preme, LA, & Bullet
3 of Chicago’s rising stars come together to showcase the talent of The Lake City. All three of these guys kill it – here is a little sample:
“Runnin’ around grabbin’ coins like I’m on the bonus level,
I’m in the game, tryin’ to play, make my way to owner level,
I’m Sears Tower n****, I am Hancock,
And watch how Preme is rappin’, I’m a beast like I’m The Sandlot”
- S-Preme“Told ‘em I’m a star,
Like I’m Kareem Abdul-Jabbar,
Before LA got to LA, LA wasn’t a star
Get it?
Lew Alcindor, every beat I injure,
Smash every track, ain’t no need for a censor,
Mr. Clean mouth, no grill, no dentures,
Extra, (When I’m) Winterfresh, spit
Orbiting your mentals!”
- LA“That’s why my whole career growin’ bright,
Paid tuition, now show money, you doin’ open mics,
And my flow is tight, all I do is drop bombs,
Better than all of you rappers and I’m makin’ pop songs”
- Bullet
You can find both S-Preme and LA on the recently released March of Time Mixtape Presented by Pwelbs.com & The Airtime Collection. CHICAGO STAND UP!
