First Santigold and now this! It looks like it's gong to be a bass-tastic year. The queen of alternative rap is ready to release some new material from her fourth album! Conveniently ahead of her performance with Madonna at the Super Bowl, the track will be available to download on iTunes. M.I.A. was reported to be in the recording studio with Swizz Beatz, Polow Da Don, Cataracs, and Chris Brown in early 2011, hinting at new material for a possible fourth album. She posted a series of TwitPics in the middle of November 2011 revealing that she had recorded new songs in Chennai. [...]
If Cee Lo Green can have a chart-topping song that employs the F-word right there in its retro-sounding chorus, why can't Lloyd score his own hit using a commonly used nickname for a woman's genitalia? In this similarly Mowtown-inspired Polow Da Don production, R&B singer Lloyd complains about a cheating girlfriend who took her ladybits elsewhere, while Andre 3000 throws down a verse and Lil Wayne drops in for some brief narration. NSFW lyrics vid below. Lloyd, Andre 3000 & Lil Wayne — "Dedication [...]
"Be The One" was released in the most "unique" way possible. First, the instrumental leaked. Then, a snippet. Now, the full thing. It was like advancing from kiss, to handjob to sex. From the moment play was clicked, a complete mindf*ck occurred. Lloyd began singing who at the time I thought was Trey attempting to be Lloyd. And from there the whole song and its parts just ran together. Eskay even described it as "repetitive" and one radios should swoon over. I can't say he's too far off. Speakers and [...]
It looks like Lil Wayne's ninth solo album, the follow up to his 3 million selling "Tha Carter III", "Tha Carter IV" has been suffered a push back from the May 16th to a mid-June release. This is still not confirmed so it may only be 26 days left before "Tha Carter IV" lands on the shelves. What's for sure is that the official album cover is here, peep below along with the tentative tracklist. 1. 'Tune This' 2. 'Team [...]
Ross and Trigga already have standing contributions to Last Train In Paris , but when you're playing the ratings game, originality is the first to go out the window. So what we have here is three Negreos in tuxuedos playing house in the Axis Chemical Factory like it's the end of days. If you're looking for a good example of wholesome, clean and dirty fun, this would be it. Can you hear the Train ? It's the Dirty Money bishes! "Let your tongue walk on this p--" says Dawn. If Rick Ross' beard [...]
Lil Wayne now rolls out the second official single off his upcoming album "Tha Carter IV" which is now set to drop the 16th of May. The single is produced by Polow da Don and features Rick Ross, listen below: Lil Wayne ft. Rick Ross - 'If I Die Today' (prod. by Polow da Don)
This track is cool and chill and all other sorts of cool weather. It's going to be #1 ... You have my word on that one. Download and leave feedback: http://hulkshare.com/jg5lmf3il 07i HOT OR NOT!? Let us know!
Young Dro loves Polo so, so, sooo much, and we have nothing but respect for his probably-unsponsored dedication to personal branding, but there's something super fishy about his latest, "Polo Down." That little flute flourish, the mechanical AutoTune chorus chant… deep in our download-folder subconscious we feel like we've heard this one before. This isn't [...]
A month ago, Miss Info and I had a brief exchange regarding Lloyd's "Lay It Down" and how the track had a youthful sound that reminded me of how music is meant to excite and create energy. My understanding came from being at local high school basketball game and watching a pack of seven, little raggamuffins pseudo-crooning their hearts out in the bleachers as the tune played during halftime. As I loosely remember it, Info and I agreed that the whole surroundings of the song take you back to when it was "cool" to like [...]
Music News Monday is fast becoming the most tedious post I have to write but at the same time I feel its essential to continue keeping you all up-to-date with the goings on in the music world. This week I have pieces on Lady Gaga, Teena Marie, Polow Da Don, Willow Smith, Chris Brown and [...]
For an album called No Boys Allowed , there sure are a lot of boys that came to play inside Miss Keri Baby 's clubhouse. Though she's tried at length to explain her new album's title -that No Boys Allowed a "no bitch ass-ness" kind of empowerment collection about ditching the little boys and uplifting women, it's hard to drive that point home when the album's guest-list is exclusively filled with men-especially when one of them is Chris Brown . But putting the album title-content conflict aside, Miss Keri Baby [...]
This Post Brought to You by The Lonely Island …But mostly Jessica Alba and Blake Lively. I know we missed Techno Tuesday yesterday, and for that I humbly apologize. To help make up for it I've got a special remix of the Jackson 5. Also we're going international today with another soul hit from Ms. Doolittle. Lastly, some Cali rap courtesy of Dom and People Under The Stairs. Try and find the Dwight shoutout. Eliza Doolittle - Skinny Genes Jackson [...]
Thank you, Thank you. You're far to kind. You know we had to flip this on a Sunday Night. J5/Polow A. Keys/A. Graham, lets do it! The Jackson 5 - Dancing Machine (Polow Da Don Soft Touch Remix) Purchase Drake - Fireworks (Tom Wrecks Remix) (Feat. Alicia Keys) Purchase
>Bobby Ray has unleashed a early Christmas gift to the fans in the form of his "No Genre" mixtape, 16 tracks featuring everyone from Donnis to KanYe West. Peep the full tracklist below: 1. 'Beast Mode' (prod. by Infinity) 2. 'So So' (prod. by Jim Jonsin) 3. 'How U Do That' (prod. by Kutta) 4. 'Feet Don't Fail Me Now' ft. T.I. & Spodee (prod. by Kutta) 5. 'Higher' ft. Playboy Tre, CyHi Da Prynce & Bun B (prod. by Polow da Don) 6. 'Shoot Up The Station' (prod. [...]
This was unexpected one might think? But no, actually not since Lil' Kim talked about this collaboration with Keri Hilson back in July during an interview HollywoodTV saying: " I'm doing a collaboration right now in the studio with Keri Hilson. I'm so excited! This is for her album though. So you might be hearing that song really soon. Shout out to Polow. I love you Polow. Cause he did the track. " and well here it is, called 'Buy You' off Keri's upcoming sophomore album "No Boys Allowed" that drops the 21st of December. What can I [...]
Her sophomore album may be titled No Boys Allowed , but Keri Hilson is clearly okay with letting members of the opposite sex into at least one room of her clubhouse. "So good I'll make you think the bed is my workplace," Keri grunts in her latest, Polow Da Don-produced single "The Way You Love Me" (obviously not targeting the feminist demographic here). And in case you were wondering: "love" does not equate a box of chocolates and a foot rub in Ms. Hilson's book. Listen to the filthy little number here. [...]
"These worries are heavy / They rest on my shoulders," sings both Kid Cudi and guest vocalist Mary J. Blige on the pensive "These Worries", the latest song to surface from the rapper (who has recently forsaken rapping in favor of becoming a rock god ). Honestly, though, when is Kid Cudi not worried in a track? Almost every tune we get from Cudi is him feeling weighed down and forlorn. Guy needs a hug. Listen to one of two Man On The Moon II: The Legend Of Mr. Rager [...]
Image, in the music industry, is everything. You can be the the greatest rhymer or singer in the world, but if your personality resembles that of a stop sign, you're not doing yourself any favors. It's not always right, but it is the reality of the situation. Knowing this, it was probably a portion of the reason Lloyd decide to chop his hair off for the old school Malcolm X conk . Trey discarded his braids, and look, his career's been on the up and up ever since. What another [...]
Yes, you read it right. Lil Wayne's "I'm Not a Human Being" is no longer an EP, instead it will serve as Weezy's eight studio album and it's still dropping on the same day, the 27th of September. Wayne's manager Cortez Bryant recently revealed to SPIN that several of the tracks off "I'm Not a Human Being" were slated for "Tha Carter IV" but that Wayne decided to start from square one with that album since his sound has changed so much over the last year. Here's thanks to HHC (again) the (tagged) first track off the [...]
"Questo è il tipo di canzoni che le donne stavano aspettando da me!!" Con queste parole Chris Brown annuncia l'uscita del suo prossimo singolo, il primo del nuovo album del quale ancora non si conosce titolo e data di uscita. Cosa avrà voluto dire il cantante con questa affermazione? Forse dietro il nome del nuovo brano si cela la risposta alla nostra domanda: il pezzo si chiama "Calypso" ed è stato prodotto da Polow Da Don, lo stesso producer di "Not Myself Tonight" di Christina Aguilera . La cosa [...]
