How long has it been since Just Blaze has blessed a beat that's featured on this here bloggy-blog? Bloody ages, I'd say. But when Just wants to come back on the scene, he comes back strong by contributing a track for one of the most anticipated (if not the most) albums of 20-12: Kendrick Lamar's good kid, m.A.A.d. city. Ken's regular running mate Dr Dre steps out from behind the boards and onto the mic, blessing Blaze's beat (alliteration overload) on for a tune about [...]

"NOW EVERYBODY SERENADE THE NEW FATE OF KENDRICK LAMAR!!!" Bow down to the Compton Kings who have blessed us with yet another masterful collaboration! "King" Kendrick Lamar and Dr. Dre have just released another singled of Kendrick's "good kid, m.A.A.d city" coming out October 22nd and if you weren't already pumped up enough about this album prepare yourself because your excitement is about to jump like an undergrad twacking off amphetamines during Finals Week. There's no doubt in my mind this track, titled Compton , is about to rule the charts and [...]

So what do you get when 3 of the biggest names in hip hop come together for one amazing collabo? Well apparently you get a pretty lackluster track that sounds as if it was pieced together as quickly as possible with no real effort put into it. But when the video gets released it has to be better, right? Well once again it seems like apparently not. In what looks to be a fan created pieced together group of clips that take the literal words of the song and show a picture or brief clip of [...]

50 Cent just released a free album, but he already has plans for his next release. The rapper has announced that his fifth studio album, Street King Immortal , will be released on November 13. The album will be preceded by first single, "New Day." You may recognize the beat and the hook as Alicia Keys previously released a version of the track that is produced by her husband, Swizz Beatz. But 50 adds some new verses and a guest appearance from Dr. Dre to give the [...]

50 Cent takes Alicia Keys' recent single "New Day" and makes it his own with help from two longtime collaborators. Serving as the lead single to his next major label LP, Street King Immortal , 502s version includes a verse from Dr. Dre and was mixed by Eminem . Swizz Beatz served as producer. Stream the track now at Miss Info . The single comes less than a month after the release of 502s mixtape 5 (Murder By Numbers) , which is still available as a free [...]

UGGHH (Rick Ross voice). The LARGE man on campus has finally released the most anticipated single off his upcoming fifth solo album, "God Forgives, I Don't". Ricky Rozay brings Dr. Dre and Jay-Z on 3 Kings to absolutely (figuratively, of course) murder the beat and build up the hype even higher for his July 31st record release. The BIG boss of MMG thinks the Jake One produced track is "the biggest collaboration in hip-hop, not just this year, maybe previous years". He put his money where his cake is, judge for yourself to see if the [...]

It's been a while since I've posted anything from beardyman Rick Ross, but the latest track from his soon-to-be-released album God Forgives But I Don't is as good a reason as I need to break the drought. Rozay has linked up with a couple of elder statesmen (Jay-Z and Dr Dre) to drop a tune by the name of '3 Kings', backed by a soulful, piano-backed beat from producer Jake One. Actually, special mention to Jake for this beat. I was so engrossed in it that I almost missed a couple [...]
After much anticipation, Rick Ross has finally released his new song "3 Kings" featuring Dr.Dre and Jay-Z. Premiering it on Funkmaster Flex's In Flex We Trust radio show last night, I could hear people blasting it outside my window. With that said, the combination of Hip-Hop royalty is a very successful one. While Rick Ross provides solid bars, it's safe [...]

If ever there was a song with a title that fit so perfectly, it's Rick Ross ' new one, "3 Kings." The understandably boastful track not only features the Miami boss Rozay spitting hot fire, but it also features West Coast ruler Dr. Dre (it's always a good day when Dre blesses a track), and the Emperor of New York City, Jay-Z . "Stunting to the max," Jay raps. Sounds about right. "3 Kings" is taken from Rick Ross' highly-anticipated album God Forgives, I Don't , finally out in stores on [...]

There really hasn't been all that much to be excited about in the hip hop world as of late, so when word dropped that a collabo of this calibur was coming together, one couldn't help but get their hopes up. I mean, Rick Ross , Dr. Dre and Jay-Z all on the same track, it just had to blow the socks off anything else out there currently. But I think when something gets you as hyped as what Rick Ross is calling "the biggest collaboration in hip-hop" you kind of get the feeling that the [...]

What was once a terrible George Clooney movie is now a collaboration between three rap kings: Rick Ross , Jay-Z , and Dr. Dre have teamed up for "3 Kings", off Ross' long-anticipated fifth album, God Forgives, I Don't . Stream it now at In Flex We Trust . God Forgives, I Don’t will be released on July 31st via Maybach Music Group/Def Jam/Warner Bros. God Forgives, I Don’t Tracklist: 01. Pray For Us [...]

I've been a little concerned that Kendrick Lamar has fallen under Dr Dre's spell recently. You know the one: where highly anticipated albums fall off the face of the earth, never to be heard from again. But fear not, 'cause Kendrick's back today with a new tune from his upcoming Dre-assisted album, Good Kid M.A.A.D City , which is due to be released in October. Apparently. 'Swimming Pools (Drank)' - produced by T-Minus - is all about the booze. Not the 'lets pop bubbly and spray it on women' kind [...]

DJ Khaled is prepping his new album Kiss The Ring, and in his preparation he managed to snag the two hottest artists in the game, Ross ad Kanye. I still don't understand what exactly Khaled does to claim releasing his own album, but I don't think I ever will. Either way Hit-boy killed this beat, and this is a banger, something Khaled does know something about.

MMG will be doing numbers all summer after the release of Self Made 2, and upcoming albums from Rick Ross and Meek Mill in July and August. Today we get visuals for "Black Magic" featuring Mill & Ross, which is off Self Made 2. Hit the jump for flashing lights, cars, girls and Bawse shouting "poof".
There's some definite upsides to being down with Dr. Dre - and I'm not talking about a free lifetime supply of overpriced headphones . Kendrick Lamar's one person who's probably pretty happy to be in Dre's corner these days. He's already signed up through a tie-in between Dre's Aftermath label and the Top Dawg Entertainment label he's called home for a while. He's even announced that he'll feature on the unicorn of all hip hop albums, Detox. Why the unicorn? I'd really like to believe [...]

The first track we all heard from Detox was a dope track about smoking weed with an all star cast of guest stars. The second was a weird bromance song with Eminem putting together clever, if not uncomfortable lines. And now the third leak from Detox is simply a laid back song about partying. But in a surprise twist Dre enlists the help of Vampire Weekend's front man and the up and coming Pittsburg phenom. What do you think? Is this album going to have the impact Chronic 2001 did? Dr. Dre - Gotta [...]
