Nas liberou ontem a sequência da música Black Girl Lost , lançada originalmente em 1996 no álbum It Was Written . A nova faixa foi produzida por Hit-Boy e fará parte do próximo disco do rapper.

The internet is now full of hate over the fact that Nas premiered an updated version of 96' classic, "Another Black Girl Lost". While it's nowhere near as good as the original , the message is still very clear, and the beat is pretty damn good. The hook is a bit cheesy though. To the pleasure of many, this will not appear on Life is Good .
Hip-Hop doesn't appreciate part twos, so when Nas decided to remake his classic 1996 cut from It Was Written, "Black Girl Lost," he was fighting an uphill battle before the [...]
Queens finest Nasir Jones has unleashed a new record today, he revisits his It Was Written days and releases part 2 of "Black Girl Lost," which appeared on the It Was Written album, and titles it "Another Black Girl Lost." Hit-Boy comes through once again with the production (second...
One of the things I hate the most about Hip-Hop is when artists make pointless follow-ups to classic records/albums. "Black Girl Lost " is one of the best songs off of arguably Nas' best album, 19962s It Was Written . And while this 2012 version has a positive message, it's nowhere near as good as the original. Nas - Another Black Girl Lost In my opinion, Nas is the greatest rapper to ever touch a microphone. Since he's my favorite emcee, I'm often very critical of every career decision he [...]
Décidément, l'ancien rappeur Ice-T aime bel et bien le cinéma. Après avoir joué dans la fameuse série policière New York Unité Spéciale, il a décidé de passer derrière la caméra mais cette fois-ci pour la bonne cause. En Effet, Ice-T vient de réaliser un documentaire sur le hip-hop intitulé Something From Nothing: The Art Of Rap qui sortira en juin prochain aux US. Accrochez-vous car ça annonce du très très lourd : Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Kanye West, Run DMC, Dr Dre, Common, Mos Def, Ice Cube, XZibit, Nas, [...]

To me, NAS is everything in real HIP HOP music. I admit, I've dissed Rap & Hip Hop recently. But when NAS comes out of the BLUE on a sleep album that has everything a Hip Hop head could want, (Lyrics, Beats, Skills) it's hard not to give props, where props are desereved! Thank you for restoring my Hip Hop faith in 2012! I will buy this album and not download it! You killed this one NAS!
Happy Passover Apologies for the lack of content due to a variety of reasons. Good news for you is that I have still been acquiring jawnz while you have been waiting. Drake dropped this video alongside the visuals for Take Care a couple days ago. Even though Take Care will get more play thanks to the romantic tension, the concept behind this wins over everything. Shalom. Also, apparently G.O.O.D. Fridays restarted when no one was paying attention. Swizz Beatz feat. A$AP Rocky - Street Knock [...]
Atmospheric beat producer RAJA took to his SoundCloud a few days to put up a new remix compilation, aptly titled Remixes . Throughout the release's ten tracks, the beat maker reworks verses from the likes of Kanye, Nas, and Ol' Dirty Bastard, to name a few, in a fashion often reminiscent of the syrupy chopped and screwed technique. I'm also catching hints of Flying Lotus on "TV Breath," while "Outer [♥ Grimes Interlude]" is something for the Burial fans. Stream the remixes above, and head over to RAJA's SoundCloud [...]
When I left Lexington for Austin this year I didn't have a very solid plan for coverage. Sometimes that meant I wound up with little to nothing planned for an evening (Wednesday night) and other times it meant huge surprises. I learned about this Z-Trip party a day and a half prior through his twitter [...]
As Young Money's resident Barbie, Nicki Minaj endeared herself with her 2010 debut LP, Pink Friday . Over the course of 13 tracks, Minaj revealed her wacko, borderline schizophrenic beauty, dropping a mass of revolting-yet-alluring flows. Yet she balanced those traits with pure thuggish tendencies, out-streeting even the most gangster of male compatriots. And, for an assortment of reasons no doubt associated with her princess complex, she also had fantasies of being a female songbird a la Rihanna. So, what happens when Minaj enters the studio for round two, only to strip away [...]

Download: Avatar the Articulate - It Was Bitten New York underground veteran emcee Avatar the Articulate pays homage to Nas's sophomore album It Was Written, in its entirety, with his self-produced remake, appropriately titled It Was Bitten. Despite the satirically seeming title, Avatar's motivation for this release, accompanying his reverence to Nas, is to offer a new vantage point to the time-honored original, so that others can appreciate the concepts and issues addressed in his music.

When we previously heard from otherworldly producer RAJA, he was in the midst of a heavy output cycle that featured one hell of a free project in Red . And because he's obviously so giving, the talented young beatsmith has given away another gem in Remixes . The fittingly titled project features - yeah, you guessed it - a slew of remixes. RAJA has taken on cuts like Nas' "You Know My Style" and Kanye West's "We Major", both of which are turned into screwed, ice-cold bangers. Stream and download the project below. [...]
Despite Nicki Minaj's Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded being borderline unlistenable starting track one (sad face), I did find this hidden gem. Although, I think I may give cred to Drake, Young Jeezy and Nas rather than Nicki Minaj. Nicki Minaj - Champion (feat. Drake, Nas, Young Jeezy)
Indaba Music is running a remix contest for K'naan's new single "Nothing To Lose" featuring seminal hip-hop artist Nas. German producer, Herr Kaschke, has entered the contest & I really like his... **Summary** Go to website for downloads, videos & more.
Hip-hop spectacle and schizophrenic MC Nicki Minaj adds another chapter to her Pink Friday collection with "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded" , which suggested a heavy focus on Roman, one of her many alter-egos. Even though she doesn't seem to have learned any new tricks, Nicki Minaj fans will rejoice at the prospect of new material from the newly appointed hip-hop queen. From the first notes of "Roman Holiday," Minaj sounds at odds with the sort of music she's attempting to sing. Her comically faux-British accent only emphasizes her [...]
This is, at it states, a remix album. If you're looking for soothing folk music, go listen to something else. However, if you like raves, club music, dubstep, hip hop, trance, or any other form of electronic music, check this out. Five world-renowned producers are the main draw: Skrillex, The Crystal Method, Pretty Lights, Mark Ronson, and DJ Premier.
