HoodHype Official 24/7 Streaming music channel featuring GOOD SHIT.
To see Dogg Pound, Ice Cube and Jay Electronica all in one show? Man I'd love to cover the Paid Dues show in San Bernadino, CA. Check out the details at Guerilla Union.
It's been a while since I've heard Kurupt spitting lyrics on a track and sounding like he's really enjoying himself while doing it. It's definitely the type of music I've always liked hearing from Kurupt and what I was hoping to hear on that DJ Quik album he did, but didn't quite get. Is Kurupt making a comeback in 2010?

Well this shit is depressing. Damn Quik what is this? Where's that Jazzy, clean, hard hitting soul music? The joints at the end in the promo sound like fire though!!
For me, this is gonna be personally one of my most anticipated albums of 2009. I CANNOT WAIT. Quik has gotta be one of my top 5 favorite producer/rappers of all time. And then Kurupt in the mix? I look at this as almost like a West Coast Slaughterhouse in its infancy. It's gonna be fire.
Blaqkout drops June 9th. Or 32 days, 12 hours, 8 minutes, 30 seconds....29....28.....27.....
Off DJ Quik & Kurupt's upcoming colloborative album Blaqkout LP and I CAN'T WAIT. It's songs like this that move me to a different state of mind and being. From the moment this track jumped off, I instantly felt like I was in a drop on the 405 in LA. Quik is incredible and the master of the West Coast sound that nobody can touch. Kurupt is spittin' real tough on this joint as well.
