[News] Lack Of Posting

I'll make this short and sweet. I have been really lagging behind lately because of health reasons. I had surgery today and the pain is just oh so wonderful so I am going to try to update as much as I can but I might be M.I.A. at times. I spend the whole day bouncing between medicine, sleeping and other wonderful sights you don't need to hear about.

[New] NeakO- Ready To Go

NeakO, thank god gave us a little leak off of his upcoming work "Junk Food" and it was the perfect time. He goes in and gives you something that makes you really be able to dig the song. It aint just a beat, its a complete song and puts me right in a NeakO mood so I am putting on the Rubix Cube, who cares what edition I got them all. Three fingers to the sun!

[New] Usher ft. Nicki Minaj- Little Freak

. Sunday, December 20, 2009

UserShare is being whack at the moment so I am sorry and you just have to deal with zShare for now. Usher's new album has some tracks which I feel are a little whack, some which are good and then some that sort of re-enact the old Usher. Nicki sounds hot on this song and I am really excited what 2010 is going to bring with her, some sick collabo's should be in the works.

[News] It's coming...

.
2 comments


I figured I'd throw up a post about this because I have been putting in so much work towards this. I started this blog to share with everyone who came to read my love for music. I wanted to share the songs that I constantly listen to but at the same time open my world to so much more music. It turned into finding out about so many new artists, people trying to work their way up and made connections. It came into mind to start up a little project, a mixtape. I started reaching out to people I knew and people who's music that I worshiped in order to create a collection of music to share with all of you and as many people as I could reach out to to show what I felt not only showed what hip-hop should be, what hip-hop is and what hip-hop has been turning into. I have gotten a group of rappers/producers and others who's talents encompass a ton of different aspects and levels of hip-hop and I am hoping that his mixtape gets out there and people can see what we are trying to achieve here.

Right now nothing is cemented in stone. I have a list of 15 people who are definitely on board and some others who will hopefully be joining. If you read this and are interested feel free to shoot me over an email and I'll check it out. I am shooting for a late January into February release, because I don't want to rush anything but if things move quicker they move quicker. The title as of now is being worked on and same with the artwork. This will not be the first either. It's A Rap will continue to put out mixtapes of this sort until whenever I feel like it.

I don't know if I am leaving out anything but yes, I just wanted to give all the readers a quick update on what I have been slaving over twitter/email/aim/phone to get done. Love how I started slaving on this during finals week too.

[New] Late Night Listening: Episode 24 ft. (Lil Jon, Wale, Joell Ortiz, Rakim & Cam'ron)

.

So this picture is a pretty accurate description of what is going on outside right now which is just wonderful. This happens every year. I leave college which is in the worst area, always cold, snow and rain all the time and I come home hoping to not have that for a while and I get smacked in the face with a nice storm. I'll have to wake up and shovel which is my favorite past time if you guys didn't know. Anyway here are some tracks to hopefully light a fire under some of you and get you pumped for any reason.

Lil Jon- Oh What A Night | UserShare
Lil Jon has been coming out of the woodworks lately and trying to make a new name for himself. We always know a Lil Jon song could liven up a party and he has transformed himself into a new club monster. We had his collabo's with LMFAO and now this song which will be featured in a club near you.

Wale- Stronger Freestyle | UserShare
Don't know if this is brand new or some old goodies but Wale takes Stronger which a lot of people have probably forgotten about and rips it a new one so enjoy.

Joell Ortiz- Line 'Em Up ft. Cory Gunz | UserShare
Joell Ortiz continues his streak of releasing a ton of music this week and teams up with one XXL's top freshmen who should have done a lot better and do a lot better then he is doing. I personally love Cory Gunz and hope he gets bigger.

Rakim- Euphoria | UserShare
This one features Jadakiss, Styles P, Busta Rhymes, and Cocoa Chanelle. The song has real nice flow to it and I don't know it just got to me.

Cam'Ron ft. Vado- Ooh Baby | UserShare
I always love a good song from Cam and this is no let down.

My boy Ramz is back with his youtube freestyles. It seems like it has been forever since one drops and to be completely honest we needed some Ramz in our lives. He take on Chip Tha Rippers "Fat Raps" and gives us a sweet freestyle. I almost died with the Pleasure P line.

[New] Wale- Thank You Freestyle

.

Wale has been dropping some freestyles lately and this time takes some Jay-Z to give us. One cool thing, even though it was just a shoutout, was how he included his twitter followers into the song. So a big heads up  you can be in a Wale freestyle or maybe a song if you check his twitter frequently cause he said he is going to do this more often. I think an even better idea would be if he took those people and included them into verses, would show some challenge in a show. Just an idea, maybe he will get word but I doubt it.

[New] Gucci Mane ft. Pharrell- Have It All

.
0 comments


A DJ cluttered version of this song popped up a day ago or something but I don't like having to deal with those. I really like this song, I feel that Gucci fits right in on a Pharrell beat and they really compliment each other. This song is very listenable for those who dislike Gucci Mane, Pharrell does that to a lot, and I mean a lot of artists.

[New] Mos Def- 24 Hour Karate School

As some of you know I am now home for college winter break so the whole moving out and then moving back into home process left me a little unorganized and I was sort of lazy to set up the whole computer thing so I didn't have access to my music but now I do so here comes the tracks I have missed out on the past couple of days. First is Mos Def. Here in New York we are slated to get some kind of ridiculous blizzard tomorrow which is when I am supposed to go to the Mos Def concert but fuck that because I will leave 5 hours early because I am showing up. Mos Def is a legend and even by listening to this song you can tell the guy still has it. He will never go out of style and I will forever be able to vibe to Mos Def.

[Video] Homeless Man Sings "Creep"

I slept on posting this video for a couple days due to laziness but not because I didn't love it. I must have watched this thing at least 10-15 times and I am still amazed each time at what this guy can do. It shows that there is beauty in each and every one of us and there are so many people who can just blow you away. I agree with my friend Will from WAWSTSF that we need to make this guy the next viral super star and big thanks goes out to Confusion from P&P for spreading this video around. You can get the mp3 from his site if you love it super much.

First, thanks goes out to h.e.r. We get to check into the life a little bit of Curren$y and he acts like a little kid on Christmas morning. I am jealous to the max and need to get some serious work done on my wardrobe this winter break. Maybe I can get some pointers from Spitta and his fashion sense.

Today has been a very lazy day kind of. I took my last final and now I am home thank the lord. I was so tired because I pulled an all nighter so all I did when I got home was eat then pass out. I am too lazy to be at my desk right now and plug in my harddrive so mp3s will be coming tomorrow but I don't want to lack so I am going to be posting some videos for all of you. Thanks to DJ Semtex. Sidenote, I will hopefully be seeing Mos Def, my idol in concert this week, gotta love NY.

[New] Emilio Sparks ft. Donny Goines, AC & A. Pinks- Don't Let Me Down

. Thursday, December 17, 2009
0 comments


This is the first single off of Emilio Sparks' upcoming Kicks, Chicks and Porno Flicks. This one features Donny Goines and and AC and has a nice flow to it. They take an 80's rock beat and add some bass and give us four minutes of goodness. This is a project I am waiting to cop because I know it will be good all around.

[New] Melanie Fiona- It Kills Me Remix ft. Ghostface Killah

Ghostface comes out and jumps on, in my opinion the best track from Melanie Fiona. Not only is this girl downright beautiful, she can belt a tune. This song has been on replay since I downloaded it, even though its the song that it is, I can still blast something like this, especially in the midst of all the stress I've been surviving through.
