Swizz Beatz - BANG BANG (feat. Pusha T & Pharrell)

New(-ish) Swizzy!

Swizz Beatz - BANG BANG (feat. Pusha T & Pharrell)

Where the fuck is Malice?? Did he get saved or something?? I mean, I almost thought Pusha was the better rapper, but damn, it's like this nigga or dropped off the face of the earth.

As far as thing song goes, it's good, but the hook gets annoying as fuck. Also, I have this weird feeling Lloyd Banks was supposed to be on this track. Don't worry if you don't get it, it's just an odd feeling I have.

Kanye West - Looking For Trouble (feat. Pusha T, Big Sean, CyHi Da Prynce & J. Cole)

Okay, time to update the website, but first let's catch up with some of the heat from over the last week...starting with LAST week's G.O.O.D. Friday track.

Kanye West - Looking For Trouble (feat. Pusha T, Big Sean, CyHi Da Prynce & J. Cole)

Nice little ditty, but nothing too incredible. Of course, like everyone else, I would've preferred to just hear Kanye and J. Cole trading verses, but this was fine for a first collaboration. Oh, and again I failed to hear the greatness of CyHi Da Prynce. Maybe I'm not listening close enough or something, but he just seems average, like a new version of GLC.

Kanye West - Take One For The Team (feat. Keri Hilson, Pusha T & CyHi Da Prynce)

G.O.O.D. Friday was delayed because Kanye is working and getting prepared for the album. This post was delayed because I was working and getting ready for Fuck Lil Wayne 3. See, it's practically the same thing.

Quick bit of news before we start, if you haven't heard already Kanye's 35 minute film "Runaway" will premiere simultaneously on MTV, BET, MTV2, MTV.com, BET.com, and VH1.com next Saturday October 23rd at 8pm! This should be interesting.

Kanye West - Take One For The Team (feat. Keri Hilson, Pusha T & CyHi Da Prynce)

I know Kanye said he was gonna use some of these G.O.O.D. Friday tracks on the album, and I really wouldn't mind if it was this one of them (Note: Unfortunately, I'm not being consulted). That first verse was ill as fuck...and true! I feel the same damn way! I hate looking at pics of people kids (in the belly or after birth) and I hate being in someone's funky crib and smelling like that shit when I leave. Especially when it's that weird fried grease smell, that's the worst.

As far as the rest of the song goes, the beat was dope, though I thought my speakers were shorting out when I first turned it on. Pusha did his thing, and do did Keri. I'm about tire of CyHi Da Prince already though. Did Kanye drop GLC from G.O.O.D. Music?? If not, then the wack rapper quota is filled and CyHi can move the hell on.

Kanye West - Christian Dior Denim Flow (feat. KiD CuDi, Pusha T, John Legend, Lloyd Banks & Ryan Leslie)

Kanye said there would be no G.O.O.D. Friday this week, but he must've felt some sympathy for us after his high wore off and he actually listened to the turd sandwich he, Soulja Boy, and KiD CuDi inevitably created in the studio the other day. Hopefully that means it won't make the album, but either way, enjoy this Saturday edition of G.O.O.D. Friday.

Kanye West - Christian Dior Denim Flow (feat. KiD CuDi, Pusha T, John Legend, Lloyd Banks & Ryan Leslie)

We spoke about 50 Tyson and his retardation earlier, but how sure are we that KiD CuDi doesn't also suffer from autism as well?? That nigga's flow is horrible. Soulja Boy is wack as shit lyrically, but at least I can laugh at how bad he is, KiD CuDi is painfully bad and it's hard to listen to him spit. KiD CuDi raps like Mike Tyson dances.

Outside of the audio travesty that came after the 5 minute mark, the track was fly. I wasn't really feeling that effect Kanye put on his verse, but it was smoother to listen to than CuDi. Pusha, Banks, and Ryan Leslie all did their thing though. B+ song with a F- ending.

(Side note: Be honest, if news broke tomorrow that KiD CuDi was autistic, you wouldn't question it, would you?? I know. I know.)

Kanye West - So Appalled (feat. RZA, Jay-Z, Pusha T, Swizz Beatz & CyHi Da Prynce)

We first ran into this track back in November of '09, and thank goodness is it now a complete product. No need to waste time, happy G.O.O.D. Friday!

Kanye West - So Appalled (feat. RZA, Jay-Z, Pusha T, Swizz Beatz & CyHi Da Prynce)

Another win for Kanye. As far as I'm concerned the track could've went off after Jay-Z's verse, but I'm not mad at Kanye for giving niggas a chance...even though they stood no chance after the shit Hov laid down. Actually, Pusha T did his thing, but it was just overshadowed by Jay. Everything after that really could've been left on the chopping board though.

Kanye West - Runaway (feat. Pusha T)

I would've posted the actual Kanye performance from last night, but MTV keeps taking all the videos down (Because why would they want people watching something that happened on their marquee award show??). Fuck that now because the mp3 has hit the internets! Enjoy.

Kanye West - Runaway (feat. Pusha T)

Kanye is absolutely smashing the game right now musically! This totally makes up for the Lost Year (aka 2008). Oh, and am I the only one ecstatic that super deep auto-tuned hook at the end was left off the studio version?? I hope not. I am a bit sad to hear the "look atcha" sample gone though, I thought that was a nice touch. Oh well, I'm not complaining, the last time Kanye closed out the VMAs with a performance (the Lost Year), an extra shitty version of the song leaked days later. This is FAR from that.

It'll be interesting to see how this song does on the Billboard charts and if it'll be the catalyst to get this new album released. Fingers crossed.

Kanye West - Good Friday (feat. Common, KiD CuDi, Pusha T, Big Sean & Charlie Wilson)

G.O.O.D. Friday is back with a song entitled none other than Good Friday. Let's do it!

Kanye West - Good Friday (feat. Common, KiD CuDi, Pusha T, Big Sean & Charlie Wilson)

Well first and foremost, let me say thank you for not letting KiD CuDi rap on this track, Kanye. That was big for me, that nigga is awful. I could've done without Big Sean as well though. I mean, he's a decent enough rapper, but he just tries way too hard to rap like Kanye and it's just weird. Well anyway, dope song. I'm sure this won't be on the album, but it wouldn't be a bad bonus track.

Thursday Billboard Update - 12/17/09

Susan Boyle and her I Dreamed A Dream are still looking dominant moving another 582,000 while Andrea Bocelli is no slouch either with another 400,000. Chris Brown's comeback album Graffiti does 101,900. That looks about right. Expect this album to disappear into Billboard oblivion sooner than later. Gucci Mane's The State Vs. Radric Davis round out the top 10 with 90,000 sold. Can we still fronting like he's a major player in the game now??

Numbers 1, 4, 5, 8, 9, and 10 are all the same, and the other slots only moved 1 way up or down. The end.

The Billboard 200 1-10
first week debuts in bold

1. Susan Boyle - I Dreamed A Dream (1-1)
2. Andrea Bocelli - My Christmas (2-2)
3. Glee Cast - Glee: The Music, Vol. 2 (3)
4. Taylor Swift - Fearless (3-4)
5. Carrie Underwood - Play On (6-5)
6. Lady GaGa - The Fame (5-6)
7. Chris Brown - Graffiti (7)
8. Justin Bieber - My World (12-8)
9. Michael Bublé - Crazy Love (10-9)
10. Gucci Mane - The State Vs. Radric Davis (10)

• Rough week for the Dogg Father as Snoop Dogg's Malice N Wonderland debuts at #23 with just 59,300 sold. I blame that terrible Soulja Boy feature lol.
• Timbaland's Shock Value II also underwhelms at #36 with just 39,700 sold.
• Clipse's Til The Casket Drops checks in at #46 with 31,500 sold.
• And last, but not least, B.G. and his Too Hood 2 Be Hollywood debuts #77 with 18,000 sold.

10. Jay Sean - Down (10-10)

• Ludacris' How Low has made a real impact with the ladies and it shows as it debuts at #13 this week. Its obviously the top debut of the week. Maybe this will force Def Jam to release that damn Battle Of The Sexes album.
• Timbaland sees his Carry Out with Justin Timberlake surge 44 spots 75-31.
• After leaking to the net a week ago, Lil Wayne's On Fire, from the oft-delayed and newly leaked Rebirth album, debuted at #62.

This Week In Flops 12/8/09

Okay, 181,400 is what Rihanna's Rated R sold last week, so that's Chris Brown's sales ceiling. (Trust me, there's NO chance that he even comes close to that figure, let alone pass it.) The bottom line is the interest just isn't there for Chris and it doesn't help that I've heard nothing but bad reviews since the album leaked. He should still debut in the top 10 selling somewhere between 90-120k.

I listened to Snoop's album over the weekend and I was extremely disappointed World Of A Gangsta and Protocol didn't make the cut. I mean its not like they ran out of space, there's only 14 tracks and 2 of them were the intro and outro. Oh, and one was an absolutely ear torturing song called Pronto with Soulja Boy. That shit is SOOOOOO bad! You telling me the album needed that, but couldn't use those 2 bangers mentioned above?? For that reason I probably won't buy the album, but I'm sure it'll fall in the 80-110k range.

In April of '07, when the first Shock Value dropped, it debuted at #5 and sold 138,000, and that was on the heels of super single Give It To Me with Justin Timberlake and Nelly Furtado. That huge #1 hit single doesn't exist these time around some we might see Timmy sitting on the outside of the top 10 next week. I'll say 60-90k.

Welp, I guess its time to see how hot Gucci Mane really is to everyone. He's destroyed numerous songs with his shitty features, but he is allegedly in high demand. Realistically, with the way everybody has pretended to be on his dick, he should do Susan Boyle numbers.

..But he won't. I'll give him 45-85k.

I haven't listened to the album yet, but I'm sure its good. Its a damn shame nobody knows its dropping though. I mean, I didn't even know until I saw it leak last week. Damn shame, 20-50k

Judging by Juvenile's album's perormance (#43, 23,100 sold), I'm gonna guess B.G. does somewhere in the range of 10-20.

(Question: Is B.G. still signed to Grand Hustle??)

Clipse - Door Man

I have no idea what's going on with this Til The Casket Drops album. As of right now, its still set for a December 8th release, but you know how release dates can change, and especially for the Clipse.

As far as this song goes, the hook is awfully wack, but I like the overall song. This something you can jam in the car and tell people "I'm dropping off a package" when you really just picking up something for my grandma at the store lol. The audio is after the jump for your downloaded pleasure.

Re-Up Harangue

I was just wondering where the fine fellows from ItsTheReal.com were last week. They haven't dropped a video in awhile! This was pretty good, nothing special, but I like the last line at the end of the video lol.

Check out Clipse on VladTV talking about Kanye and other stage crashers after the jump.

Tuesday Morning MuZik!

Clipse - I'm Good (Remix) (feat. Pharrell & Rick Ross)

I'm glad they decided to keep the same beat as the original version because the track is straight fiyah! Everybody did their thing on their verse so I definitely fucks with this! This is South Florida cruising music and I love it.

Til The Casket Drops was actually scheduled to drop yesterday, but obviously that never happened.

Saigon - My Mommy

If you haven't heard, Saigon's mother actually passed away yesterday. Its always tough to lose a love one, but parents especially. I have a few friends that lost theirs and I know its got to be a crazy feeling. Condolences to him and his family.

Damian Marley - The Mission (Remix) (feat. Lil Wayne)

I remember this shit! It was on either NBA Live 08 or 09! Anyway, what did Wayne really contribute to the track?? He was just in the background making unnecessary auto-tuned chants. I didn't get that, but the original song is hot!

Cassidy - Time

This was on a mixtape at some point, but its tag free now and its actually a good ass song. Its not that classy, but I fucks with it. I'm ready for some new Cass shit!

Jim Jones - Black On Black (feat. Sen City & ATM)

Speaking of mixtape tracks that are now tagless, here's the good version of that Jim Jones track I said I liked last week. This shit makes me wanna smoke weed and throw middle fingers up at random people in slow motion lol.

Drake - King Leon

I wouldn't be that surprised if we heard a completed version of this on Thank Me Later (maybe as track 1 or 2??). I'm just sayin'.

Wiz Khalifa - The Thrill

This was aight, really nothing special.

The Best of the Forgotten MuZik Pt. 3

Okay, I'm gonna slow it down and go more R&B oriented in part 3. Enjoy.

Keri Hilson - Heart Attack

At the end there when Keri was giving a description of the guy, did she say, "5'9", he's tall umm"?? I could've sworn that's what she said. I can look down on 5'9" niggas and I'm not tall at all lol.

Anyway, this feels like some of that early to mid 2000s R&B shit. You know, that shit underground radio used to play late at night. Don't act like y'all don't remember that shit! Very, very, very hot shit.

Lloyd - Pusha (feat. Pusha T)

Mary J. Blige - Said & Done (Prod. By Ryan Leslie)

Shouts to Ryan Leslie on the track. Pretty decent Mary shit. I like this Mary better than auto-tuned Mary.

Mya - Ponytail (feat. Nicki Minaj)

I used to have the biggest crush on Mya back in '97 when I was in 6th grade! That really has nothing to do with anything, but listening to this song is bringing those same feelings back. I'd still wife Mya right now I don't give a damn!

Anyway, Nicki Minaj is aware that she fucked up the track, right?? i definitely could've gone without hearing "Peggy and Al Bundy. Ballin' like Van Gundy. Alligator heels on, Crocodile Dundee." Shit was wack as fuck and it messed up the whole flow and feel of the song.

Young Money - Girl You Know (feat. Omarion)

"Maybe its time to put this pussy on your sideburn." Uhhh, no. Its NEVER that time, sorry Nick lol.

Anyway, Drake won. Hands down, no questions about it.

Young Money - Bed Rock (feat. Lloyd)

That's right, the same song with a different title and a different singer on the hook. We all know Omarion got dropped so they had to put somebody on there.

So who's hook was better, Omarion's or Lloyd's?? I'm leaning heavily towards Omarion, what about you??

Clipse - Eyes On Me/I'm Good

Two tracks off Til The Casket Drops which is due this fall.

Clipse - Eyes On Me (feat. Pharrell & Keri Hilson)

Did they seriously pay Keri Hilson to do that little bitty 15 seconds of singing?? I hope not. Matter of fact, I pray not. This shit is definitely jammin' though and really didn't need that little blip on the radar (though it did sound good too). I'm liking what I'm hearing from the Clipse!

Clipse - I'm Good (feat. Pharrell)

Yeah I know, this track has been out for a week or so now BUT I never posted it so I'm trying to make up for that now. Forgiven?? I hope so but either way this shit is hot so it really doesn't matter.

On another note, this sounds so familiar! I think I heard Jeezy or somebody else spit over this beat or something very similar. I know I'm not going crazy but I'm too lazy to research it right now lol.

Clipse - Kinda Like A Big Deal (feat. Kanye West) Video

Wow, I never thought I'd see Kanye West in a video that involved shell casings on the ground lol. Yeah, I know there was a microphone at the end and it was supposed to mean they killed the mic, but Kanye and bullets just seem weird in the same video lol.

Anyway, I'm convinced Kanye did this verse before he went crazy because that was some old Yeezy shit, not that auto-tune fake fuck we've been subjected to. I like.

Clipse - Kinda Like A Big Deal (feat. Kanye West)

Till the Casket Drops still doesn't have a release date, but I'm liking what I'm hearing thus far with the first track to leak. Kanye rips this shit and his slowly gaining back all the cool points and credibility he lost by doing 808s & Heartbreak. DJ Khalil kinda did a good job on the beat too on the low. Most people will automatically assume Kanye produced it, but that was not the case.
