Illa J Album Release@The Root Down

URB’s been blastin’ Illa J for a solid minute, now, so it’s no wonder we were peepin’ his album release party of his debut, Yancey Boys, this past Thursday at The Root Down Thursdays in the Little Temple Bar, LA. When URB arrived DJ Sloe Poke was gracing the decks, and oh how graceful it was. Dude spun amazing hip-hop, afro/latin beat, even a little reggae. I won’t go into specific songs, but him alone is worth checking out The Root Down. Then Mr. Frank Ditty stomped onto the stage, and this lucky crowd got to hear some new material from the Detroit Ditty of Frank ‘N Dank. He then introduced the main event, Illa J, accompanied by House Shoes on the beats. Illa floated in center stage with a “Yancey Boys” tee and a Dilla hat. …

Rick Ross – Port of Miami (Review)

Port of Miami

Released by Def Jam


Rick Ross is not a good rapper. He has trouble completing even the simplest bars, so much so that he needs to track himself as his own hype man just to get the lines onto record. His bloated status as untouchable trapstar - removed from the block and safely sitting on a stack of money - is the obvious progression from the recent onslaught of crack rap, but it's also one that his boss, Jay-Z, did ten years ago.
