chipmunk's da best MC



At the age of 15, young North London MC Chipmunk had already released 2 mixtapes on the underground Grime circuit. It was this work rate which led to Godfather of Grime, Wiley, taking Chipmunk under his wing as his new protege. This accolade has led to success in the past with such notable working relationships between and a 16 year old Tinchy Stryder (album Star In The Hood out now) and a certain Bow boy by the name of Dizzee Rascal. By the response from such DJs as Westwood, Shortee Blitz and Logan Sama, Chipmunk is well on his way to making it a hat trick of success stories from the king of Eski Beat.




Having exploded onto the underground Grime scene in 2006 touring across the UK and beyond, Chipmunk has impressed all who have not only heard his evident lyrical talent, but also witnessed his exuberant performances in person. With an open invitation back to the Westwood show, Big Ted and Shortee Blitz as well as Logan Sama, his radio exposure is set to be huge.



The production line up is as tight as you would expect for an MC who has access to Wiley's A&Ring talents. Working with equally as exciting young producing talent such as Maniac & Bless Beats (both have productions featured on Wiley's album 'Playtime Is Over'), along with stalwarts Wiley, Danny Weed and DVA ensures the music matches the quality of young Chipmunk's lyrical delivery.

DONNSUBI MIXTAPE




DONNSUBIBorn and raised in Tanzania, East-Africa, Donnsubi has emerged to be one of the most promising artist/producer to come out of Australia music scene. He has a talent in incorporating different genres of music in the construction of his instrumentals thus allowing his music to appeal to a wide range of audience.In 1988, during early years of his childhood, Donnsubi first embraced Hip-hop culture through break dancing and grasped the very essence of the hip hop music. He credits his late brother Mpoki for exposing him to television programs such as Yo MTV Raps and teaching him the fundamentals of understanding popular culture through acts such as Michael Jackson. And by the early 90s Donnsubi had taken his talent to the streets of Dar es Salaam, competing in break-dancing challenges at house parties and beach fiestas. Until 1997, Donnsubi started recording briefly in the music classroom and boarding dormitory at Braeburn high school he attended in Nairobi, Kenya. In the high school years, the aspiring artist hosted talent shows for the boarding students while studying drama to prefect stage performance abilities. This proved to be a wonderful experience as now a developing artist and proved to gain confidence in many of his peers. By the new millennium, Donnsubi had fully developed as an artist and performed at various venues around cities in Alberta, Canada while he was undergoing a Computer Science degree. In a short period of time he spent there, he produced and recorded 2 mix tapes under the group called MP SoulJahz whose members went on to release solo materials in various parts of the world after his departure.Currently, Donnsubi is producing records for many talented artists who are about to put their works out in Western Australia and other countries around the world. At the same time he is finally recording his solo debut album titled 'UMOJA: The New World Order Vol.1' in studios around the beautiful city of Perth in WA. When asked at a recent interview what his thoughts were on the making 'new music' in digital era as a producer and solo artist, he commented, "I say, the world will embrace the works I'll put out there…especially the new generation. I feel the contents I've addressed is relevant to many people and I've arranged the album so that the music transcends through different genres. This way, I give form to new type of music which is still identifiable to many."

amerie-Heard Em all {feat .lil wayne}


snoop dogg-thats the hommie

Having grown up with the D-O double G throughout the years, it’s kind of hard listening to a song like this. You can see he has evolved so much during his tenure, but is definitely not the vibe we remember from him. The OG still gets support though and this will be found on his new album.

wale -world tour

This one sounds it should be a single from Wale. Produced by Cool & Dre. That hook is a page out of A Tribe Called Quest’s “Award Tour” too.

DOWNLOAD: Johnta Austin – Ghetto Girl (Produced by Scott Storch)

Johnta Austin is undeniably a good talent that should definitely be in the forefront of the R&B writing world so until we see that album, we’re just gonna have to do with these unreleased tracks. Odd combo with Scott Storch, but it’ll work. We’ll pass on the ghetto girl as well.

HAPPY BDAY MJ

Today marks what would have been Micheal Jackson 51st Birthday. He started off with his brothers in 1964 and then went solo in 1979. He was and still is the King of Pop, who changed the music game phenomenally. Michael Jackson… Legend… Icon… The King of POP.

A man told police he shot his ex-girlfriend because she gave him HIV. That woman later died in the hospital. According to Hollywood Police, Anton Jamar Josey kidnapped 23-year-old Dominque Duval…… from her job in Fort Lauderdale armed with a gun at about 11 p.m. Witnesses said they heard Duval screaming and being dragged by Josey into a Mercedes-Benz.
Police caught up with Josey at a local gas station, pulling his car over for speeding. “The detectives attempted to stop that vehicle when it turned into the Shell Gas Station at 2801 Pembroke Road,” said Hollywood Police Lieutenant Manny Marino. “When the vehicle came to a stop, however, a female exited the passenger side of the vehicle, ran back towards the detectives’ direction. She was apparently holding her neck, had some type of injury. The detectives obviously approached the vehicle. The driver also exited, and at some point, made a statement as to shooting the victim.”

“Man , you know where that's coming from. That's Timbo's camp. Somebody is playin' dirty. It's cool though. I like to see the people's opinions. I've been reading the comments on Jay's records saying that the beats don't sound like this or that. I think they just set the bar too high for my guy.”
