Mekka Don’s new single, “They All Come Down,” explores the rise of all stars and their inevitable fall. With the rise and fall of the Bernie Madoffs and Plaxico Burress’ of the world, and recent convictions of rappers Lil Wayne, TI, and Lil’ Boosie, the song could not have been more timely. Although some of these “falls” are tragic – ala Michael Jackson and Steve McNair – the truth still remains the same – “They All Come Down.” The song is complemented by a powerful video produced by Humungoid Films, which you can view at http://www.theyallcomedown.com. Jared Zwerling plays the role of celebrity-living the good life.

Here’s the day we’ve all been waiting for… the official release day of the long awaited Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II and Blueprint 3. Jay-Z’s Blueprint 3 was originally supposed to be released this Friday, September 11, but got push up to today. Since both albums leaked last week, there have been varying opinions on Blueprint 3; however, the praise for Raekwon’s new album has been pretty consistent. As far as I know, these are the only two releases in stores today. Hit the jump to let us know what you’re coppin…

Released a little over a month ago, Order Up! Volume 3: Chicken and Waffles has proved to be a favorite among the fans. Thank you to those who have supported the album thus far. With this album, Nobody Famous has shown that he can tackle virtually every genre of urban music, as his production style varies from one track to the next. Today we are releasing (free to the public), the third promotional single from the album, “Mary” featuring L.A. emcee Wax. This is the second track Nobody Famous and Wax have paired up for; the first being last year’s “Famous’ Laboratory.”
If you remember back in February of this year, an early version of “Mary” was leaked during our promotional campaign for Order Up! Volume 3. That version used a sample-based instrumental, produced by Nobody Famous. The subject of Wax’s lyrics were so powerful and the delivery was so emotional, that Nobody Famous felt compelled to go back to the studio and recompose the beat from scratch. The result is this sample-free epic composition that made it onto Order Up! Vol 3.
“Mary” is an amazing song with an incredible story and a beat that builds and builds with every bar. Grab the Digi 12″ after the cut and if you still have not checked out Order Up! Volume 3, download your copy now!

The two joints you see above are what I definitely will be coppin. As we kick off 11 Days of Jay today, the Roc is in the building with a brand new release from Beanie Sigel. With features from Freeway, Young Chris, and Omilio Sparks, you can’t go wrong with this purchase. Also shone above is the new album from Mr. J Medeiros. 2007’s Of Gods and Girls, is one of my all time favorites, so I know the new album cannot disappoint.
