Here’s that brand new banger off of Luda’s inevitable “Theater Of The Mind” everyone’s talking about, but I simply don’t comprehend why folks make such hoopla when three prominent Hip-Hop artists get on the track. It’s not like these cats aren’t homies and what not, and keep it real Mr. Carter, you do for $$$… But anyways I’am digging this track, it’s probably the first from Luda I’ve really felt since his debut. “Theatre Of The Mind” in stores November 24th.

Jigga man performs a few joints at the grand re-opening of the Hollywood Palladium last night. Here is footage of him doing Jockin Jay-Z, Can I Live, Swagger like us, and a Milli Freestyle. Catch the videos of his performance after the jump.

The remix to ‘Oh girl’ would be the latest from the soulful Saadiq to make it’s way online, and the addition of Jay-Z makes for an… unanticipated remix. Raphael’s “The Way I See It” is in stores everywhere Sept 16th, 2008 and please believe it’ll be a well needed break from the monotony plaguing the R&B world. Definitely cop this one.

Yea I know I’m late getting this up, but here it is, the first leaked single from T.I.’s upcoming LP Paper Trail and as you can see, it features the likes of the biggest heysayers in recent memory. All over a ridiculous MIA smaple, and with each MC spitting accordingly. This leak was not an official one, and unfortunate, T.I. had some choice words when asked about the leak, but he goes on to describe the the climate of the record and many of the cameos that we can expect regarding the album. T.I.’s Paper Trail is due out this September, and Swagger Like Us will also be featured on The Blueprint 3. Enjoy.

Eh, I can’t call it I got one eye open and one eye closed with this song. Part of me see’s him as out of touch and almost force feeding his relevance through his popular relationships. Or not. Maybe I’m just apathetic when I envision the dude on stage, either way the song bangs in the club and that’s what matters. Yeezy’s production is impeccable, and that’s what sells these days anyways. This is expected to be on his next studio album The Blueprint 3, which should be helmed by Ye’.

Here’s a bit of info on Jay’s upcoming final album (final as in Too Short final? Or final as in final-final… That is definitely the question.) entitled “The Blueprint 3″. Now you might remember the complete Timbo & Jay album as we mentioned earlier, well it looks like Yeezy has taken the initiative upon himself and will be producing most, if not the entirety of the album. Jay will be leaking the finished version of ‘Jockin’ (which Ye’ premier at Glow In The Dark show at MSG, and which you can listen to after the break) as soon as he completes his 3rd verse to the joint…

Hip-Hop’s biggest annual nationwide event has made its rounds from coast to coast, and if you were unfortunate as to miss the event don’t fret, we’ve rounded up just about everything of importance. And if you were fortunate as to make one of the events, tell us your opinion. Nonetheless, here’s everything that’s recently made its way to the Internets after the jump…

The collaboration has been initiated, and we might of a caught a preview of things to come with that recently released ‘Ain’t I‘ joint. Via MTV:

“He wants me to do the whole thing this time around,” Timbaland said Monday during a visit to the MTV News office. “I’mma make it a classic too. You better believe it. It’ll be a monster! I always say this: You get a first single from me, I’mma get you up to gold. And it’s hard to get you up to gold in this day [and age]. Jay should never chill,” he said about the rapper’s decision to return to music full time. “We had a long talk, and I really talked to him. Jay-Z does it for the love. That’s different. When somebody does it for the love, you don’t stop. He has everything, but he’s still current. A million people are buying his album regardless…”
