Late last week, Rockie and Rozay hit the M.I.A. to cook up the official visual for "Panera Bread", from The Birthday Tape . No sign of any Panera Bread yet, though. Check out another flick from the set below and look for the full visual to impact soon.

When accessorizing, it's typically en vogue to pair a decent outfit with an extremely expensive accessory. That's the same function of having Kanye West as a feature on a track. Yeezy adds the necessary something needed to upgrade any hit single. The Chicago-bred rapping-producing-ranting wunderkind spent his early days playing the assist for none other than his now-peer Jay-Z . While that could have arguably been Kanye's collaborative ceiling, he has since gone on to work with some of rap's heavyweights while forging a career of his own. Of course Kanye's musical trajectory isn't without [...]]]> text/html 2013-06-12T19:20:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/5002217/rockie-fresh-kush-do-feat-wiz-khalifa/
MMG's Rockie Fresh calls on the Taylor Gang's frontman's flow for his brand new single. Kush Do is a melodic balad where both lyricists showcase their respected styles and add to one hell of beat. Check out the new single below and stay tuned for more from MMG's youngest members.]]> text/html 2013-06-12T14:33:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/5001501/interview-dj-khaled/

DJ Khaled's new posse cut single " No New Friends " reconstructs the lineup of Khaled's great 2011 single " I'm On One ," and like that song, it's pretty much a Drake track with a couple of guests on it. Drake also co-directed the new "No New Friends" video along with Colin Tilley , and the clip takes place in 1996, paying homage to Southern rap's early baroque period. Really, with its helicopter and stretch Hummer and new-money ostentation, the video is a tribute to peak-era No Limit as much as it is to its crosstown rival Cash [...]]]> text/html 2013-06-10T14:34:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4997037/dj-khaled-no-new-friends-feat-drake-lil-wayne/

This past weekend the visuals for the latest super colab track "No New Friends" dropped.

Drake has the ability to cointerminologythat will annoy masses for the year, the evidence can be found throughout hisdiscography. This year alone I've been sickened by everyone's lack of new friends, and starting from the bottom. Hopefully the " No New Friends " visual rendition won't be allured by fellow "follow what Drake's doing'rappers into crafting unappealing analog VHS quality music videos. They wanted to take things literally back to 1995, insignificant since the song is entitled "No New Friends", with a 1995 setting, and a group of people that only beenacquainted since sometime in the early [...]]]> text/html 2013-06-09T19:55:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4995778/dj-khaled-no-new-friends-ft-drake-rick-ross/

drake-no-new-friends-bath.jpg The Colin Tiley & Drake-directed movie for "No New Friends" shows our heroes in grainy VHS quality footage dated from 1996, enjoying similar antics and lifestyles as they do today in 2013. DJ Khaled has a big cell phone , then in present day he has Monster DNA headphones???? How much do you think he got paid not to have Beats? Or does he just have reserves for any bitches that might come through? Birmdan has been rubbing his hands for decades, Lil Wayne has always had Trukfit.

The new set of visuals from DJ Khaled, Drake, Rick Ross, and Lil Wayne plays out like a home video circa 1996, and it's as amazing as it sounds. Grainy footage: check. Slow-mo everything: check.

Drake, Rick Ross and DJ Khaled in "No New Friends" video DJ Khaled , Drake, Rick Ross and Lil Wayne take it back to 1996 in the music video for their new collaboration, "No New Friends." (That explains Drizzy's DaDa outfit that turned into the meme seen around the world.) The guys declare they're about their day one friends and invite no newbies to ball out with them. But there are always exceptions. We're pretty sure the bevy of sexy ladies flanking them are pretty new.

Finally, we have the finished product for the video whose behind the scenes coverage spawned a million and one Drake memes , DJ Khaled's "No New Friends" featuring Rick Ross, Lil Wayne and, of course, Drizzy.

As "Must hear NOW!! "-exciting as it might initially be to know that an official remix to Wale 's current chart hit "Bad" -featuring A-list pop diva Rihanna - now exists , it takes just about ten seconds of staring at the 2.0 take's inviting credits for the not-as-great realization to soak in: The wrong artist has been replaced. Wale may have been the more familiar name involved, but the most engaging part of "Bad" most definitely fell on the contribution of breakout newcomer Tiara Thomas , who both seduced and concerned with [...]]]> text/html 2013-06-05T15:47:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4989063/the-art-of-luxury-rap-as-told-through-rick-ross/
Remember when Rick Ross crashed his whip in a drive-by shooting , then Reebok dropped him and the heat from his "U.O.E.N.O." verse controversy appeared as if The Fat Man's Maybach had its "check engine" light cut on? Yeah, no. MMG's head honcho relied on the same tactic of zoning in on music he's always employed when, proverbially speaking, "shit hit the fan." He did so in 2008 when news of his correctional officer past exploded. And he did so a year later when 50 Cent evaporated every [...]]]> text/html 2013-06-05T01:43:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4987723/video-wale-ft-rick-ross-and-lupe-fiasco-poor/
The week started and MMG pretty much intended to take over the hip hop game at least for a few days - appropriate given the announcement of Self Made Vol. III and the upcoming release of Wale's The Gifted . Yesterday they released three high-quality cuts in "Poor Decisions" , "Oil Money Gang" (Rick Ross x Jadakiss), and the impressive "God Is Great" (Rocky Fresh) - Tuesday comes, and the team drops official visuals for all three. Above the rest, we need to crown the above as the [...]]]> text/html 2013-06-05T00:37:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4995059/wale-feat-rick-ross-and-lupe-fiasco-poor-decisions/
