My Name Is My Name…

pusha-t

This is just one of the heat rocks from the Pusha T solo project titled ‘My Name Is My Name’. Pusha becomes the rap Rickey Hendersan on this album. He leads off with double and triple (beams) and sets the table for the featured artists.

And then Kendrick Lamar blacks the FUX OUT.

I’m telling y’all right now that My Name Is My Name is the rap album of 2013. Bong!

Long Live The KanYe…

KanYe West drops wild gems on this interview with BBC broadcaster Zane Low. Dude is still on his “George Bush does not care about Black people flow”. You have to respect that.

I feel like the Star Wars reference in part 1 was an acknowledgement of my fanboy video for the Yeezus song ‘On Sight’. LMAO. I be feeling myself too.

Combat Jack says…

King Asiatic Nobody’s Equal. It’s not every day we get to sit with a legend. Kane goes deep with his history, what he thinks about Mr. Cee, how he produced the majority of ‘Long Live The Kane’ with no credits, how Doug E Fresh taught him how to rock the crowd, how some cats from The Juice Crew wasn’t fuxin with him, how he really wanted to battle KRS-One, what Madonna smells like, how he shopped a young Jay Z with no success, why he started wearing purple silks and such… This one is a marathon, but with Kane, there’s no half steppin’.

40 Below Trooping…

The Timberland Iditarod Superboot also known as the ’40 Below’ will be the zenith of their 40th anniversary releases, but don’t sleep on ANY of the boots dropping in this pack. Especially the World Hikers.

I certainly understand how mythical the 40 Below boot is. They were worn by Tupac in ‘Juice’ and Das EFX before that. Classic NYC street style is always in fashion.

14kt x Roc Marciano: Live From Pimpstead

This track is just what I needed to erase the Drake album from my rap palate. No secret valentine rap whispers or butterfly bars on this song. Just punch you in the face rhymes over the marching drum beat.

You already know how I do when the fanboy music video director in me gets ignited [ll]? The video game 300: March To Glory provides the imagery. I’m just the conduit so you can do it.
