Mobb Deep Beats - Which Are Your Top 5 Beats Of All Time?
Over the years, I have had some influences from all kinds of hip hop music, rap music, r&b music, and even other types of music such as classical music, movie scores, and even video game music. In the course of hard, gangsta street rap, the beats always stand out to me. One of the more influential hip hop groups that has impacted my hip hop beats style has to be Mobb Deep.
The grimey and raw style of beats that came to the table, followed up with some nice lyrical warfare really had me listening and wanting to hear more. The earlier albums especially influenced me, such as the "Hell On Earth" rap album or the "Murda Muzik" album as well. Even the "Infamy" album placed some influence onto my music production. I mean, the lyrics were raw, the beats were simple but on point, and the marriage between lyrics and beats brought ... >>Read The Full Article Here...
Saw Hip Hop Beat - Saw Endgame by Genycis of Genycis.com
If you are a fanatic of the movie Saw like I've been since the start of the series occurred, then you'll probably be able to appreciate the theme music as well from it. It's powerful, mysterious, and definitely haunts the mind days and years after first being heard. I still enjoy listening to the instrumental to this day. Are you similar? Do you love the Saw movie instrumental? There's just something about it, right? Or is it really just me?
That said, I had to go out on a limb and test my musical composing abilities to see what I could do with the Saw movie theme music. It took a bit of time to say the least, but as this movie score always impressed me and caught my ear, I couldn't let it sit idly by without trying to recreate it into a hip hop beat! Much to my surprise, while it took a bit ... >>Read The Full Article Here...
Dark Rap Instrumentals - Does It Provoke Death Or Is It Just Aggressive?
There's often a lot of debate about whether dark rap instrumentals are just aggressive in nature, or if they call out the beast from within, making lyrical havoc occur in reality. I personally don't think it's so much that music causes actions to be done... though some always want to blame musicians for their suicide attempts or their murder sprees. So do dark rap instrumentals cause the same issue?
Most horrorcore rap artists are the ones that prefer the darkest of rap beats to use in their mixtapes or albums. Horrorcore rappers are known to have a very vulgar and descriptive array of bloodshed, mayhem, and dismemberment going on, among other topics that are brought about. But if the case were that music such as dark hip hop music influenced others to kill people all the time, would there not be a whole lot more dead bodies that would be reported all over the ... >>Read The Full Article Here...
Worldstar Hip Hop is known for putting up tons of hip hop video content, as well as off the wall videos including beatdowns, and honeys as well. But of course, above all, they are known for hip hop content, some of which are made of that raw hip hop lyrical madness! And that's where Prosthetik Intelligentz more than fits in!
Just the wordplay on their name by itself is already testament to the appreciation for lyrical wordplay. Prosthetik Intelligentz is a fusion of a dynamic hip hop (I mean that true hip hop flava, not those that say fewer than 10 words and consider themselves hip hop) artist in Ezzie B, and a powerful hip hop producer known as B.Doom. Between these two, the hip hop nation had better prepare for the storm that's about to drop!
Right out of North Carolina (yup, NC continues to produce hot lyrical flava in the Raleigh - Durham and Fayetteville areas), both Ezzie B and B.Doom bring the music, and ... >>Read The Full Article Here...
Let the hip hop beef continue between hip hop rapper and G-Unit President / CEO 50 Cent and Ja Rule as it seems it probably never really died! These two could beef all day and night probably. This time, the beef is based on Ja Rule's prison sentencing that's scheduled to come up based on a 2007 firearm possession charge that was filed against the rapper.
Ja Rule is scheduled for sentencing and will serve roughly 2 years in prison for the felony, a prison sentence that was reduced from a possible 3 - 15 year term due to the fact that Ja Rule plead guilty to the possession charge.
The dispute is based on some nice words that 50 Cent had for Ja Rule about his going to prison for 2 years. It seems that 50 Cent made comments on Twitter to reference (more than likely sarcastically) that no one had better mess with Ja Rule while he was in prison or it was gonna be ... >>Read The Full Article Here...
Yet another well known star of the hip hop community was the target of back taxes and owed funds to the IRS. It just continues to amaze me, where there's times that I wish I was making a third of what some of these stars were making, that the ones actually making it continue to place themselves in financial hardship and problems. Why??
Slammed with over $2.2 million dollars in a tax lien, hip hop star and icon Doug E Fresh is dealing with the issue as best as possible. The tax lien was filed back in October this year.
This is not the first stint of back taxes or other financial woes that Doug E Fresh has faced. Back in December of 2008, Doug E Fresh was slammed with financial hardships in the large sum of over $3.5 million dollars on his three homes as well, in addition to having suffered a $60k American Express credit card debt.

West coast hip hop has been a powerful force in the hip hop industry for years, especially in the late 80's and early 90's with those hard core heavy bangin' west coast beats! However, there hasn't been much that has been coming to the forefront from the west coast. So what does the west coast hip hop scene have to offer as of late?
Enter the scene of Marcos Rawles, aka Self Destruktion! This kat straight out of Los Angeles is bringing back that swagger of west coast hip hop in his music, while still keeping true to his own art.
Self Destruktion has been rapping for years, making his presence highly felt in L.A. as well as other cities across the nation. He spits lyrical content for the mind, and adds that west coast flava that has been desired since it "went to the underground".
Though the single "Smoke Out" has been the elevated track of his music, I heard other tracks that brought about a stronger ... >>Read The Full Article Here...
