Booddha – “Roses” [Free DL]

“And, crash! crash! crash! into a ditch (Just Playin.)” Classic. It’s one of the iconic tracks off of Outkast’s, err, Andre 3000’s side of Speakerboxx/The Love Below. And, will his alleged solo album ever drop? I’ve given up hope. Booddha, one-half of Vresh, recently dropped an EP that’s intense. But, he’s not done. Nah, not close. He gets ambitious and flips “Roses” by taking Andre’s howling, “pooooo … Continue reading Booddha – “Roses” [Free DL]

Andre 3000 High School Freestyle Video

Here’s a video of Andre 3000 freestyling in 1994 (same year Southernplayalisitcadillacmuzik dropped).  He’s sitting on a foldout chair at his high school gymnasium, he’s come a long way since then. It’s cool to see a younger, cornrowed 3stacks flip it on the microphone. Really puts your high school rhymes to shame, doesn’t it? My beef: Why isn’t there more!! What about Big Boi?

Ill Poetic — The Beautiful

Ill Poetic is a Cincinnati Emcee who released this song in 2007. He’s recently, (within the past week), been a part of BET’s Ohio Cypher. In this track, “The Beautiful”, he pseudo-quotes Outkast, “Twice upon a time there was man who died,” the beat waves in your skull like water stuck in your ears accompanied by a dripping piano. For more info check this much more extensive … Continue reading Ill Poetic — The Beautiful

YelaWolf, XXL Freshman Worthy? — Trunk Muzik Review

Yes, he’s white, has tattoos, frequents the shirt off look, but he’s not Eminem. Sure, he’s signed to Shady Records, yeah, it’s the same amount of syllables Yel-a-Wolf, Em-in-em, but the similarities stop there. First time I heard Yelawolf was on Big Boi’s “You Ain’t No DJ” and I wasn’t impressed (probably because I was hoping he’d be Andre 3000 instead). And then I saw … Continue reading YelaWolf, XXL Freshman Worthy? — Trunk Muzik Review
