While I am a fan of every track on this list, this is not a typical best-of or KGs favorites list. These tracks may not be the first bit of recognition the artists received, but each song Ive chosen here has had an immense impact on the artists career following the single. So think of this more as a Put Them On The Map list. [...]]]> text/html 2012-02-04T00:38:14+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4035940/video-raja-hot/
The mysterious New York based producer RAJA is back with another round of creative treats in his latest edit of Clipse's "Hot". This was definitely a standout on the Neptunes Presents: The Clones LP and RAJA dug it up, for trippy rework. Paired with the epic visuals (he also created), it only makes you ask what he will do next.

Pusha T has dropped a new video for "What Dreams Are Made Of", from his Fear of God project.. Jason Goldwatch directed the clip, which was premiered by Red Bull. Yuck!]]> text/html 2012-01-04T21:47:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3966138/andy-dixon-yvr/

It's been two years since we've heard anything from the Virginia-based duo comprised of Malice and Pusha T , known together as Clipse . But let us not lose all hope: according to Pusha, fans can expect a new album come 2013. The Thornton brothers have been keeping themselves busy by focusing on separate ventures as Pusha has been working towards the release of his solo debut LP as well as having had dabbled in a bit of acting (RIP How to Make It in America ), while Malice has been concentrating on his first [...]]]> text/html 2011-12-21T01:10:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3942465/pusha-t-sweet-freestyle-mp3/

This Thursday, Pusha-T will headline New York City's Gramercy Theater in support of his new EP, Fear of God II . While Pusha-T may be best known as one-half of acclaimed duo Clipse, and for his contributions to Kanye West's hit song, "Runaway", make no mistake, 2011 has been a huge year for the artist. He stepped out with his debut solo mixtape, Fear of God in March,and followed it up with a star-studded sequel, Fear of God II , released last month. The EP features the likes of Diddy, Kanye West, Pharrell, 50 Cent [...]]]> text/html 2011-12-06T21:51:02+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3911581/play-cloths-pcu-thunderbirds-video-lookbook/

Gene Elliot Thornton, a.k.a. "Malice" of The Clipse, shares about his life behind-the-scenes of his hip-hop success. Perhaps the first black person on the 700 Club... Malice hops on with Pat Robertson a.k.a. Philip Seymour Hoffman's Church Stunt Double" to promote his book Wretched, Pitiful, Poor, Blind, and Naked , which you can purchase here . All jokes aside, it is pretty inspirational and dope to see him talking about his upbringing and the subsequent radical change in his lifestyle... but I'm a need Gene, Chad and Pharrell to hop back in the studio and make another [...]]]> text/html 2011-12-01T17:06:31+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3900904/pusha-t-oooh-feat-hodgy-beats-liva-don/
A few years ago, Clipse launched a clothing line called Play Cloths, and I'm not sure I've ever seen any non-Clipse human beings wearing their clothes. Nonetheless, Clipse rapper and recent Kanye beneficiary Pusha T recently cranked out a mixtape to go along with the Play Cloths holiday collection. It's creatively titled Play Cloths Holiday 2011 . The big news on that mixtape: It features a track called "Oooh," in which Pusha and old Re-Up Gang buddy Ab-Liva (now calling himself Liva Don for some reason) link up with Odd Future upstarts Hodgy Beats and Tyler, The Creator.

Yesterday, Push T let loose a mixtape in partnership with Play Cloths , a fashion line created by hip-hop super duo Clipse. Every year to coincide with the release of a fresh range of clothes they put out a mixtape and this year it was Pusha T who decided to throw some tunes together. On the release though was a little collaboration with Liva Don, and Odd Future's Tyler, the Creator and Hodgy Beats . Rumour has it (apologies if that phrase now lodges Adele into your mind), the mixtape was given out to [...]]]> text/html 2011-12-01T15:38:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3900716/play-cloths-presents-the-holiday-mixtape-music/
With Play Cloths still at your nearby boutique shops, Pusha T puts together this little mixtape to tide the Clipse fans over through the holiday season. I will always support anything Push put out (including his major debut, whenever that comes out), but Malice is still greatly missed on the mic. Someone call him and tell him to get back in the booth. Tracklist and link below: 1. Dont Fuck With Me f. Pusha T 2. Ima Boss Freestyle f. Pusha T & Liva Don 3. Tony Montana Freestyle f. Pusha T 4.

XV is the shit! The Wichita, KS rapper spits a lot of positivity and I love it. Born Donavan Johnson, his name XV comes from the roman numerals for 15 - the age at which he began to create music. His favorite rapper is Andre 3000 = Excellent. Enjoy this music. Awesome - XV ft Pusha T - VA Beachs Pusha T has been all over the place, thank Jah. I love dudes flow. The Clipse are my shit, and Pusha T deserves the successful solo career hes built himself. [...]]]> text/html 2011-11-07T21:23:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3844964/pusha-t-fear-of-god-ii-let-us-pray/

Pusha T's sequel to last year's Fear Of God mixtape is a full-blown LP called Fear Of God II out on Kanye's G.O.O.D. Music imprint, and it's packed with some of rap's contemporary heavy-hitters like Mr. West, Young Jeezy, Tyler The Creator and Juicy J. While Fear Of God overreached a little, in terms of projecting Pusha onto poppier stuff, Fear Of God II definitely finds Pusha returning to his gritty, grandiose gangster rap wheelhouse on songs like "Amen," " What Dreams Are Made Of ," and " Body Work ."

Play Cloths drops off two heavyhitter Varsity jackets just in time for the cold weather. "The new Play Cloths University Collection is now available online and theres two items you should pay special attention to. The Harper and St. Bernards varsity jackets stand out in a market full of varsity jackets because of the non traditional vintage twill fabrication.

Clipse rapper Pusha T has been a bit inconsistent since he went solo recently. But the new track "What Dreams Are Made Of," which you can grab below, is just nasty . It's a hard strings-and-organ pound with Pusha sneering crime-kingpin boasts with the deadpan fury that won him a place in our hearts in the first place. He's rapping slower than he used to, but he's doing it with some Rick Ross larger-than-life snarl in his delivery, so it works. And it opens with a classic sampled Ric Flair rant, which always sounds awesome. [...]]]>
