Maino offers his take on Banks’ “Beamer, Benz or Bentley”. Nicki FTW, BTW. Maino – “Trina, Kim, Or Nicki” (MP3)

More from Luda’s Battle of The Sexes LP, due next Tuesday. Looks like they have you outnumbered, Chris.

We told you a long time ago! This track actually leaked a year or so ago during Raekwon’s OB4CL2 recording sessions. The track didn’t make the final cut and honestly was missed (not that the album needed anything else). Here it is retooled and retitled as version 2.5, now including a verse from Mr. Mef, and [cont.]

Not a huge fan of The Gooch, but this track struck a chord for some reason. Thought about it some more, and realized it was because it sounds like the drum stabs were jacked from Schooly D’s “PSK”.  What the hell do that mean? Listen: Gucci Mane – “Tired Of You”

After producing the lead-single, “We Made You,” for Eminem’s Grammy award winning (Best Rap Album) LP Relapse, Doc Ish will release his debut LP, Doc Ish Presents: The First Treatment, on May 11th, 2010. Doc Ish’ debut will include collaborations with a who’s who list of Hip-Hop’s best emcees and it will include some must [cont.]

The latest from the Jeezy’s much anticipated Thug Motivation 103 is about alcohol-induced amnesia which of course leads to a menage a trois and shameless balling, ‘house stupid dumb big, my rooms got rooms” (The Recession was the LAST album). Cool song but it falls short compared to monster singles from previous efforts. Might also [cont.]

Coming from SoFlo Entertainment, Fel Sweetenberg writes and produces his latest single “Panzie”, which features Philadelphia songstress Tanzania Lateef. This heart-felt single pays tribute to his recently departed grandmother, Panzie who was more like mother to him. She lived 92 strong years and witnessed some of the world’s most historical events, which she told first [cont.]

Rick Ross’s singing protege hopes to incite a label bidding war with this latest single (see above). Did they filter out that Knife sample, last freaked by Get Busy Committee? And is that Birdman cooing in the background? Masspike Miles – “Nasty” (MP3)

9th and Big Remo trade verses over butter production from the producer. Big Remo + 9th Wonder – “NC’s Finest” (MP3)

First official offering from Murs & 9th’s Fornever collaborative effort, dropping March 30th, with added help from the Soul Assassins / Psycho Realm camp. Murs + 9th Wonder – “The Problem Is” (Feat. Sick Jacken & Uncle Chucc)

Yes, this is exactly what it sounds like it is. Thanks to Treacherous Records for blessing us with this. Crooked I – “First Time (Freestyle)” (MP3)

It’s like the 90′s again when you hear Jojo Pellegrino spit. On “Devastate” he takes you on a journey through the streets, the cipher, the industry, and even Haiti. Producer Frank Dukes also does his thing, creating a fresh blend of creeping bass lines and sped-up vocals. Look forward to that Hurricane Pelly mixtape and [cont.]

Warner blasts out the next single from Talib Kweli & Hi-Tek’s reunion LP, Revolutions Per Minute, dropping April 20th. Kwel finally addresses the Jay-Z name drop from five years ago, while building his verses around Tek’s sample. Reflection Eternal – “In This World” by Warner Bros. Urban

Is that 9th Wonder….rapping? Sure, why not if Vitamin D’s on the track…. Taken from Thee Tom Hardy’s upcoming mixtape-album-thing The Hardy Boy Mixtape: Secret of Thee Green Magic. 9th Wonder + Khrysis + Thee Tom Hardy + Vitamin D – “Fresh & Fly” (MP3)

DJ Chuckie’s got the hot new sound in the club right now, and artists like Jermaine Dupri, Pitbull, and Lil’ Jon are tapping him to produce their latest dance records. Dondria’s “You’re The One” is the latest track that deejays are probably going gaga for right about now, featuring Chuckie’s signature “wee-ooo” sounds, but with [cont.]

Raekwon’s Ice Water crew serves up new heat, produced by Dame Grease, propelled by Lil’ Jon. IceH20 feat. Capone – “Okay!” (MP3)

Copy’s brain gets infected by devils on this new freestyle over Cage’s ancient “Agent Orange” track…. New album The Life and Times of Peter Nelson and The High Exhaulted Anniversary Edition coming soon…. Copywrite – “Agent Orange (Freestyle)” (MP3)

For a guy that doesn’t want to rhyme, he sure does it well. Diabolic’s style can easily be described as the anger of Vinnie Paz meets the complex lyricism of Kool G. Rap – both of whom appear on his long-delayed debut, A Liar and A Thief. He’s absolutely murdering verses here, over a hard-hitting [cont.]

Sound the alarms, the next out of the Young Money camp is Tyga (which stands for “Thank You God Always”), who delivers “I’m On It” along with Lil’ Wayne talking ’bout money (bitch). Heavy 808 bass propels this one nicely. [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Tyga + Lil Wayne – “I’m On It”

Here goes that new super-collabo record Slaine was tweeting about last night. Haven’t heard that sample since 6 Feet Deep…. Slaine + Ill Bill + Q-Unique – “Crillionaires” (MP3)
