Eminem drops  his first single from Recovery (Drops June 22nd) on The Morning After w/Angela Yee.  Em goes in on his life in general and his sobriety, amongst some other deep topics.  Produced by Boi 1da (the mastermind behind Drake’s smashes “Best I Ever Had”, “Forever” and “Over”), this is an uplifting track that gets me beyond excited for Recovery.  This is the type of Em that I love to hear; Relapse was filled with his fake Arabian voice and it got old after a while.  This track right here is why people love Eminem, and it shows why he’s … Continue reading →

Here is the second single for Drake’s first album, Thank Me Later, as well as the first track to surface  from the work he did with Kanye in the studio.  This song shows Drake’s R&B side and it is pretty damn good, or much better than I thought it would be when I read yesterday that this track would  be 100% singing.  Kanye comes in with a pretty dope beat and at first this kind of reminded me of a forgotten 808s & Heartbreak session.  Don’t let that throw you off in any way though, this is a solid track. … Continue reading →

P&P stated it correctly, the “Over” beat is officially destroyed.  Eminem kills it with an angry freestyle over Drake’s smash and then the “Beamer, Benz, or Bentley” beat. [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Download: Eminem- Despicable Freestyle Tweet

This is one of my favorite remixes I have ever heard…no BS.  There have been tons of remixes of this song floating around but Melo-X has produced the best hands down.  He even slips in parts of the beat from the Dead Prez song “Bigger than Hip Hop” at the beginning of the 2nd verse when Drake recycled parts of the original song (“One thing bought music when it hits you feel no pain…)”.  The heavy drums give it a tribal/electro feel. See what DJ Semtex (out of the UK) had to say about how this remix came to be: … Continue reading →

Drake’s first single off of Thank Me Later and it does not disappoint.  I had to listen to it a couple times to really appreciate it, but I think all the Drake haters should be silenced.  I know it is hard for some people to take the paraplegic character from Degrassi serious, and some don’t really dig how he blew up so quickly, but you can not deny talent.  I got one of Drake’s mixtapes, Comeback Season, back in 2008, and I have been a fan ever since.  The hook has been stuck in my head since I first heard … Continue reading →

The legend behind Chiddy Bang,Xaphoon Jones, is on the scene again with his wild remixes. Here he takes Birdman, Drake & Lil Wayne’s horrendously popular “Money To Blow” and ices it out. As Tow said previously, prepare yourself for Chiddy Bang’s upcoming EP, which drops later this month. [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Download: Money To Blow (Xaphoon Jones Remix) Tweet

This post is strictly for Daddy, because he checks our site more than we do.  And while the song is a few months old, it bothers me that it’s the kid’s jam and it has yet to be posted on The Chuckness.  He’s our number one fan, and we must treat our fans with love and respect.  Thus, here you go Daddy; it’s “Bedrock” in all its glory. If you don’t know the song (I don’t think it’s exploded over the airwaves yet), it basically consists of everyone on Lil Wayne’s Young Money label.  And while basing a whole song … Continue reading →

I’m not usually huge on bizarre remixes, but this one from Dr Rosen Rosen is unreal.  He completely revamps the song and gives it an entirely new sound that works perfectly, it’s hard to do but he pulled it off.  Let me know what you think.

Cause everybody loves a good mash-up, I’ve got the new track from the underground mash-up kings known as “The Hood Internet”.  Definitely check out their site and listen to their playlist…props to Nicky Rubio for the find. We did a Miike Snow post a few days back…but get yourself familar with “Cult Logic” before you listen to the mash-up: [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Somehow the geniuses over at The Hood Internet are able to take that, throw in Drake, Kanye, and Lil Wayne, blend it together… and it works out perfectly…check it out: [Audio clip: view full … Continue reading →

New track that’ll be featured on Birdman’s upcoming album, Priceless.  Real original lyrics about spending a ton of money…for some reason it’s on repeat though- [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Tweet
