by Justin January 20, 2011 Singles

Mr. X to Z, Xzibit joins Dr. Dre’s latest protege Slim The Mobster for his single “Don’t Believe You” produced by Nottz. I doubt being Dre’s new go to guy at Aftermath will work out for Slim (i.e. The Game & Bishop Lamont) so he might regret getting this tattoo soon.

by Justin January 20, 2011 Singles

While Hell Razah continues his recovery, the Brooklyn emcee is letting the spotlight shine on his son Kappo. Razah hit me with his son’s triumphant joint “For The King” produced by Shroomz. It’s tough to follow your father’s steps in hip hop (i.e. Diggy Simmons, Kurtis Blow Jr. or Justice Kareem) but Kappo definitely sounds like he’s heading in the [...]
