Wu-Tang x Rocksmith 2010 Holiday Capsule Collection

October 26th, 2010
Rocksmith let me know back in late August that they had a collab tee dropping with the Skyzoo x !llmind album, a few hip hop inspired tees for the Fall drop, and that they had gotten the license to do all the Wu-Tang clothing.

The Wu-Tang brand, in association with Rocksmith, present a special collaborative collection for the Holiday season. November will see select retailers across the United States premiere the Wu-Tang Limited capsule collection, designed and produced by Rocksmith. The Wu-Tang Brand has influenced generations as one of the most renowned global entities in music and lifestyle. This premiere collection illustrates the vivid history of the Wu as curated by Wu-Tang executive producer Oliver “Power” Grant.

The Left –Reporting Live (feat. Guilty Simpson)

It’s release day for Detroit group The Left (comprised of producer Apollo Brown, DJ Soko, and Journalist 103) whose album Gas Mask is in stores today.  To celebrate Mello Music Group has prepared the lead single,  Reporting Live featuring Guilty Simpson, for everyone to bump.
The lead track starts with a soulful sample lamenting “a change, a change has just got to come”  before Apollo’s beat drops, wind instruments whistle, and Journalist lays the lyrical foundation:

“I grew up in the ghetto of Fenkell Avenue / In a hood were drug dealing was natural / And if you messed up a package niggahz came after you / bust the nine at you or beat you to you was black and blue /  This here’s factual, fairy tales are non existant / Like the American dream cause I aint never lived it”

The track continues in gritty fashion, taking listeners deeper into Motown‘s streets with Guilty Simpsonwho jumps in for the second verse with his gravel drawl, painting a bittersweet portrait of a hustlers life in Rock City.  The track plays the perfect line between bragadocia and solemnity – a fitting debut for the group from Dilla Dog and Big Proof‘s home.

Drake On It’s Never Enough Delay (Video)

He said he’s been in the studio with 40 knocking out records and has now recorded the 2nd song for his next album. He’s been rapping more though, so the R&B mixtape might be on hold for now.

T.I. to Serve 11 Months in Same Arkansas Jail

Despite having the drug charges dropped from his recent case, T.I. will still be serving his 11 month sentence.

So just clearing it up for those that were actually wondering/cared.
