Yawn. I can see this track growing. Still… You know how I feel about it. Did I miss the scene from what THIS produced? Shawty with the ill body is in the black dress. I like silhouettes now.

Hailing from Northern California - - Oakland/Bay Area the stomping grounds of Too Short, comes forth another rap phenomenon (Bazialini pronuounced: Bay zah lini). You’ll be very surprised to hear he sounds nothing like his California brethren. Bazialini has straddled the rap game like a giant that has one foot in the heart of the wood grain gripping streets of Houston and the other in the playerlistic styles of the South. The man oozes talent from his rap game, a veteran to the club scene, and a pro on his collaborations this cats presence is so profound that the streets are watching and waiting to see what he will do next. If the success of his current singles “Ballin Off The Wall” and “Thowed” are any indication - - I would say he is headed straight to the top. To hear music, show schedule, or contact him.

Desert Storm & Dipset Byrdgang member Stack Bundles was murdered in Queens. You should remember Stack from all of those mixtape drops with the likes of Fabolous, Joe Budden, etc.

Dip Set Byrdgang member Stack Bundles was reportedly killed early Monday morning (June 11) in his hometown of Far Rockaway in the New York City borough of Queens.

Police have not yet released details on the case, however DJ Envy at New York radio station Hot 97 announced on the air that Stack had been shot to death. Envy also reported that Stack was seen at New York nightclub Stereo as late as 4:30 a.m. on Monday.

While he hadn’t yet attained widespread popularity, mixtape fans have been aware of Bundles’ lyrical skills for several years. The rapper, who also led his own Riot Squad crew, first began attracting major attention as a member of DJ Clue’s Desert Storm family. His work on freestyles alongside more established MCs, such as then-camp members Fabolous and Joe Budden, let the scene know immediately he could hold his own weight.

While he worked to secure a label deal, Stack released a myriad of solo mixtapes and appeared on Clue’s street CDs. Last year, he popped up on Jim Jones’ M.O.B. (Members of Byrdgang) mixtape (the same mixtape that introduced Jones’ monster smash “We Fly High”), along with the currently incarcerated Max B.

Jones told MTV News last year that Stack had approached him one night in a club, and the only thing he liked more than Stack’s audacity was his skill on the mic. Jones planned to not only release Stack’s solo debut, but also to highlight him on Byrdgang releases as well.

On Monday morning, MTV News reached out to a grieving Jones, who said he needed some time to get his thoughts together before speaking on the death of his friend and artist.

MTV News will have more on this story as it develops. [ Source ]

Collie Buddz’s self-titled album drops July 3rd.

This joint is hot. Don’t know if the rest of the new UGK album will be as hot. Here’s the audio as well.

UGK - “International Player’s Anthem” feat. Outkast

“whether you’re rich or pick wic up,
sniff, if it’s that shit, then it’s us!” — J Dilla

I asked some of my buddies were they up on Sa-Ra. Nope. So school’s in session. This is from The Hollywood Recordings that dropped at the end of April. If you listened to the end of Kanye’s latest mixtape, then you’ve heard them. It’s weird how some people are international superstars but at the same time barely known in the states (even when they’ve worked with some of the best acts in entertainment). That just proves Clear Channel and Radio One be having things on lock. And damn can I get a Dilla beat. This song is ill.

Sa-Ra - “Thrilla” feat. J Dilla

Didn’t Cassidy already do this multi-personality thing? Anyway, take a listen to “TI Vs TIP Sampler”. It’s aiight at best. Let me know what you think. Maybe (Hopefully), he’s just putting this stuff out like that leak cd appeared before King. [ Zshare ]
