SOTD: Chris Brown ft. Busta Rhymes & Lil Wayne - Look At Me Now

Aside from all his domestic violence drama and recent nude leaks, this is a surprisingly dope song from Chris Brown's camp. I like songs about making money, gets my day started right.

What is the general consensus about Chris Brown these days anyways? What he did to Rihanna was atrocious, no doubt. But a few of his songs have been catching my ear lately. Not sure how to feel about that... hmmm confused In any case, partake!

SOTD: Lupe Fiasco - All Black Everything


Lupe dropped another single from his highly anticipated Lasers album today... Correct me if I'm wrong, but I have a feeling this LP is gonna be fiyahhhh. Lu' even said this is his favorite record ever. Strong (and appropriate from what I've heard thus far) choice of words there. Partake!

SOTD: Andre 3000 Remix of Ke$ha's "Sleazy"

First off, let me say I do not listen to anything Ke$ha. She looks filthy and just rubs me the wrong way. But this Andre 3000 remix of one of her songs, "Sleazy," JAMS. Nice job, 3 Stacks! Now just surprise us with a comeback album...

New videos from Phil Ade and Jazmine Sullivan

Two of the songs I've made SOTDs have new videos out:





Thoughts?

In other news, Jazmine's set to receive the Rising Star Award by Billboard on December 2, an award also bestowed upon everyone's favorite eccentric, Lady Gaga, in 2009.

"I admire Lady Gaga, so to be honored in a category that she was once in is such a rewarding feeling," Sullivan tells Billboard.com. "When I heard the news, I was so happy. I feel honored to be chosen as this year's Rising Star."

You can download Phil's The Letterman mixtape here.

SOTD: Phil Ade - Toast 2 Life (ft. Kevin Ross)

This DMV native stays comin' hard with the dope mixtapes. Prolly my favorite quote from the song:

"Take it to the max,
f*ck a PC."

Lol. Partake.

SOTD: Jazmine Sullivan - 10 Seconds

First off: Happy October, folks smile I know fall officially started late September, but recently the weather's begun to recognize its arrival as well. FINALLY, because it was a hot ass summer. I've been waiting a minute to bust my fave fall fashions (alliteration!) outta my closet. Leather! Silks! Satin! Tweed! I'm dying over here.

And of course, SEASONAL SNACKS: candy corn, pumpkin pie, Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte (oh yes), apple cider... I can't get enough of them. My inner fatty *rejoices* around this time of year.

"Haters gonna hate"

Anyways, on to the post at hand. Ah, Song of the Day. How I've missed you 'round these parts. I heard this joint last night on one of my very rare listens to the radio (why is it that they play the dope music on "off" times, like during lunch or late at night?). Jazmine Sullivan is a new-ish artist with an incredible voice. Of course, she doesn't get the mainstream love she deserves. Maybe this song will wake people up.

"10 Seconds" has a retro, 1960s sound to it and covers what seems to be a favorite topic for Jazmine: relationship probs. The chorus is soaring, and with Sullivan's powerful vocals, you're really transported to that moment where Jazmine tells her lover to get out by the count of ten... or else.

SOTD: Big Boi - Shutterbugg



Big Boi describes this song as "a funky, get-down, slap-your-sister-in-the-mouth jam.” Agreed. The video is hot, too.

Of course, where there's a Big Boi, there's a 3 Stacks not far behind. Too bad record label beef is keeping them from releasing an album together, UGH.

GQ: So because OutKast as a group is signed to Jive, they’re able to legally block the two of you from working together?

Big Boi: Au contraire! They cannot block it. Au contraire. Either they’re going to do it the right way, or they’re going to do it my way. How you wanna do it? The fans thirst will be quenched. You know, I’m no stranger to that internet, baby. So you already know what time it is. The thirst of the fans will be quenched.

GQ:
You’re saying we will be hearing “Lookin For Ya” [with André] even though it’s not on the album?

Big Boi: I guarantee it.
Word.

The lyrics on this = CLASSIC. Must read.

[Chorus]

Bawk bawk, chicken chicken
Bawk bawk, chicken heads (boy please whateva)
Bawk bawk, chicken chicken
Bawk bawk, chicken heads
[x4]

[Project Pat]

Bald-head scally wag
Ain't got no hair in back
Gelled up weaved up
Yo hair is messed up
Need to get bout' a hustle mission
Get up on loot run to beautician
Run game until the game is gravy
That don't mean spend cheese fa tha baby
(Bwok bwok) on a stalk stalk for a bootleg
(Bwok bwok) pretty walk walk givin out head
Ain't a thang eat a chicken wang
Got some gold teeth
At da club tryin ta shake that thang
Tryin ta get piece
Chicken chicken always into some dubs
Shoulda paid ya light bill
You bought a outfit
Stay at ya mammy house
And keep a smart mouth
It's Project Pat Memphis Tenn represents tha south
So pass tha dro dro and we gone stay kickin
Full of that mo mo holla at a chicken

[Chorus]

[La Chat]

Yeah you like my outfit
Don't even fake the deal
I thought you said you had your girl on the light bill

[Project Pat]

Always in my face
Talkin this and that
Girl I had to buy some rims for da Cadillac

[La Chat]

You ride clean
But your gas tank is on E
Be stepping out ain't got no decent shoes on ya feet

[Project Pat]

That's just the needle broke
Youn't know'cha talkin bout
Anyway them new Jordans finna come out

[La Chat]

Hate ta see you in a club
Ya mobbin wit a mug
Knowin that you ridin wit ya boy
You nothing but a scrub

[Project Pat]

But he was with me
That's when you hated
Cause when I got up on ya friend ya damn near fainted

[La Chat]

I sho did
In our face drankin on that "yak"
Mouth fulla golds but yo ass need some Tic Tacs

[Project Pat]

What? You need some gum
Breath like some thunder
What you lookin at
I don't want yo phone number lol

(Boy please whateva)

[Chorus]

[DJ Paul]

Now these chicken head hoes see this platinum thick as white gold
See the 20 inch Pirelli's roll
Mane thank they vogues
Dodgin all my foes
Ridin Caddi' truck wit DVD
A flock of broads follow me
From the club to break they knees
Knowin that's all i want
Straight out tha club
Tha rest ain't smellin right
The last thang on they mind is freshin up
It's goin down tonight
Weave in they head
Weed in they purse
Still crunk
Baby seats all across the back wit clothes in the trunk

[Juicy J]

I been known to hold my own
I been known to ride on chrome
I been known to flip a platinum watch wit the diamond stones
I'm the fool supplyin tha dro
I'm tha fool supplyin tha blow
I'm tha playa who got u chicken heads knockin at my do
Tellin me that you diggin me
Tellin me I'm yo man to be
Girlfriend its gonna cost a fee
Get yo rags and work tha streets
Pay ya boy and make me rich
So we keep them swishers lit
Pay yo fees we count them g's
Cashin in from all you chicks

[Chorus]

SOTD: Jay-Z - Jockin' Jay-Z (and a P.S.A.)








♫ Jockin' Jay-Z

The inspiration for today's SOTD comes from a ridiculous email I recently received. Some foolio hit me up via email talkin bout "Hey, I 'bootlegged' your site design & layout, my bad, but can you help me change a few things around so it doesn't look like I stole from you? P.S. I'm too broke to pay you for your time and efforts."

Uh... I think it's about to be Declare War On a B*tch Day again.

I thought it went without saying, but I work really hard not only on the content of this blog, but also the design (including the HTML coding) of it. To not be credited for the hours of work I put into this site sucks balls. So, if something on this site inspires you enough to put it on your own blog, CREDIT THE SOURCE. If the design and layout of my blog inspires you to want to add elements of it to your own page, great. But again, CREDIT THE SOURCE. And if you need help tweaking *my* design and layout to your specifications, not only do you need to credit the source, you need to pay up. I don't wave a magic wand and make this mess happen, it takes TIME, THOUGHT, and ENERGY.

So just a reminder, kids: swagger jackin' is NOT the business.
