Jay-Z- Young Forever music video

The visuals for one of my favorite tracks off Blueprint 3 finally arrives. It features Jay and Mr Hudson in a black and white video with some great footage.

Codizzle-The Internet Vs. The Machine mixtape

My homie Codizzle has been holding it down for awhile now and deserves the spotlight. This tape should do it for him. It's dope and features some crazy verses and beats mixed in with a Transformers type theme.

Download

Jay Electronica- Exhibit C

Um, yeah this track is insane. Just Blaze's beat on Exhibit C is crazy, and of course Jay Elect's rhymes are just amazing. Support good music, buy the tracks. And if you've never heard of Jay Electronica, download this and you will learn.

Exhibit C

Iron Man 2 movie trailer

The sequel looks like it will easily top the first with more high quality actors and enemies.

Lil Wayne- Drop The World (ft. Eminem)

This record is insane. Lil Wayne finally got his wish to be on a track alone with Eminem (Forever didn't count) and it comes correct. Produced by Chase N. Cashe, look out for them in 2010.

Drop The World

Young Jeezy- Money To Blow Remix

Young Jeezy has been killing beats as of late. This time he goes over Birdman's Money To Blow and replaces Drake's verse. As a bonus I added the track where he goes over Trey Songz' Say Ahh.

Money To Blow Remix
Bonus: Say Ahh Remix

Idle Warship- Bedroom Lites music video

Amazing video from an awesome group of artists. Talib Kweli really takes everything to another level.

Lil Wayne- Da Da Da

This is the second single trying to be pushed for Lil Wayne's Rebirth. These tracks really aren't doing it for me, I was expecting a lot more. Maybe the Eminem and Wayne collabo will though.

Da Da Da

Lil Wayne - On Fire

This is the new single from Lil Wayne for his rock/rap/whatever album Rebirth. The track is dope, which is produced by Cool N Dre and samples this song. I recognized it right away because it was on the Grand Theft Auto III soundtrack and of course the Scarface soundtrack. Thanks Splash.

On Fire

Birdman, Drake and Lil Wayne make another video, this time for the track 4 My Town. Gil Greene has been on point with all these videos.

This track leaked a few weeks ago with Cam's verse on it. I would say that this is one of the standouts on the album. It's produced by Bangladesh.

Dirty Money- Angels Remix (ft. Lupe Fiasco, Rick Ross & Raekwon)

Lil Wayne's Rebirth Coming December 15th

Billboard confirms that Lil Wayne's upcoming album Rebirth will be packaged with the Young Money album.

After much delay, Lil Wayne's highly-anticipated rock album, "Rebirth," is now slated for a Dec. 15 release date according to the Universal Music Group website. The set will be packaged as a dual-disc along with the Young Money collective, "We Are Young Money."

Originally scheduled for April 7, the first single off the set titled "Prom Queen," produced by Infamous and Andrew "Drew" Correa, reached no. 15 on the Billboard Hot 100. Second single "Hot Revolver" debuted at No. 33 on the same tally.

In addition to Infamous and Correa, producers Cool and Dre and Develop also have tracks on "Rebirth," while Fall Out Boy is featured. The latter comes after their first collaboration on Fall Out Boy's 2008 release, "Folie à Deux." Lenny Kravitz, Travis Barker and Young Money/Cash Money artist Drake also appear on the set.

Although the album is mostly rock inspired, with Lil Wayne playing guitar on most of the tracks, the leaked song, "Fix My Hat," produced by Drew Money, is one of the few rap tracks that made it onto the "Rebirth" set.

In related news, the new Mary J. Blige album, "Stronger," is due out Dec. 22, while the new Redman album, "9 1/2," is confirmed for a Dec. 15 release date from Def Jam, according to the Universal Music Group website.

A little promotional video for Kanye's book from his excursions on the Glow In The Dark Tour. The video is awesome and the pictures look to be just as good.

Drake Performing With Jay-Z

Drake is set to make his return to performing after having knee surgery. What better way to do this than to perform in his home town Toronto with Jay-Z.

Toronto fans are in for a Halloween treat when Jay-Z brings out Drake for his first performance since undergoing surgery.

The “Best I Ever Had” rapper, who has been absent from the spotlight after his September knee surgery, will join Jay-Z on stage at the Air Canada Centre in his hometown tonight during The Blueprint 3 tour with supporting acts N.E.R.D., Wale, and J. Cole.

“This weekend is gonna be my first time back on stage,” Drizzy tells Rap-Up.com. “I’m performing with Jay-Z when he comes to Toronto. This will be my first time back out there. I’m kinda like nervous/excited.”

When asked if he would perform “Off That,” his collaboration with Hov from The Blueprint 3, he responded, “No, I don’t think so.” Instead he revealed that he will perform his own single. “I’m actually performing ‘Successful.’”

Via Rap-Up.

New Lupe Fiasco Mixtape Coming

Apparently Lupe feels he's not as relevant as he used to be so he has taken it upon himself to come up with a new mixtape. He plans to continue his Fahrenheit 1/15 series. Is he getting on his Lil Wayne No Ceilings thing, just killing beats?

"Not a diss of the list...knew I wasn't gonna make it ha!...but I'm using the fact that I wasn't on it as an excuse to just start wrecking shit on a frequent basis so by the time the next one comes out I'll be number 1,2,3,4 and 5..." Lupe Fiasco

You can get parts 1-3 here to catch up.

Beautiful Bliss
