Forever Young

This Blueprint 3 is the dirtiest album I've heard all year. It tops everything I can imagine at the moment. It's on a level above everyone else in the World. HOV is truly still all on his shit. An unbelievable effort must have gone into what I think might be album of the year. Four times I heard tracks on the all new Blueprint 3 and thought I heard the album's best track. But it wasn't until I finished that I realized that Forever Young is the dirtiest tracks, maybe it's up there with Sweet Dreams and Michael Jackson tracks.

Jigga's track with GOOD music artist Mr. Hudson, "Forever Young," is a phenomenal cap to a contemporary album in true Jay-Z fashion he has captured our 08-09 moments so very well. Looking back the track might be to short...

Jay-Z has lots of help on tracks on this album, artists like Kid CuDi, Kanye West, J. Cole, Swizzy, Alicia Keys, Young Jeezy, Pharrell, and of course Rihanna, help frame it especially well, without any overkill.

Thank HOV Jockin Jay-Z isn't on the album. Make sure to cope this fire on Sept 11, when it drops, it's gonna go super plat- only Jay-Z album since American Gangster, even in the recession it'll murder "wack MCs" in their dreams.

Additionally I'll be in the house for Jay-Z's only NYC concert a 9/11 for Charity event in the Garden on Friday September 11, 2009. There is much more to come.

Happy Birthday America

It's the USA's 233 Birthday weekend, and she's still looking as fine as ever. Luckily we are not over populated, or densely packed together. But Between Alaska, Montana, Cali, and Maine we have plenty of space for expansion. Thank goodness we have loud individual voices to keep progression on everyone's mind. I call these voices independents. And like independents America's on it's progression game, and as a young almost teenage country we can guide our progression in our own direction. So happy independence day America.
RIP Michael Jackson - Hopefully your in a much more peaceful place today then last week.

My First Model

If I would have to pick my first model to smash up it would have to be Chanel Iman.  Young.  Independant.  Gourgous.

GLC & Christian Rich teamed up to discuss their first modeling experience & I don't think they were in front of the cameras.  Or were they?

GLC - My First Model [Feat. Christain Rich]

I was just put onto Christain Rich last night and I am really feelin' his shit.  Some smooth electro sounds out of the UK.  Peep the preview for his video.  Shouts out to BBGUN for the direction.  Concept is sick.

The Martian Is Landing At Cinespace

When I was making the weekly concert calander for KXLU, I came across one of the dopest acts to hit LA in a while.  I've been doing these concert calanders for the whole year, and I havent been this excited about anyone.  ALRIGHT...I might be a little biased because I had the pleasure of seeing him perform over the summer at Central Park NYC, Kid Cudi shuts shit down.  He is one of my favorite up & coming artists.  I see him accomplishing alot in the game, but I hear that he might be retiring after his major label project is released.  With so much talent, that would be a shame if he bowed out over some bullshit.  Hit up Cudi's blog for more info.  Just need to find someone else who is 21+ to go to the show with me.  I'm willing to go by myself if I have to.  I CANT MISS OUT ON THIS EVENT.  It goes down tomorrow night over at Cinespace.  10PM.

A Long Time Coming

I know it't been a hot minute since I've made a post but ya know what??? All that is gonna change! The clock has struck, and it is time to get back on my bloggin' grind.  I really got off track but I'm now focused again so get ready for the freshness.  After spring break I made a vow to revive Raheem's.  Well...here we go.

And by the way if you thought born under Bush raised on Clinton was good. I can't wait for born under bush raised under Obama generation. If the rise of the digital age was quick, what's next is absolutely vexing, for now.
