Young Jeezy Continues to Not Suck, Grabs Gibbs & Eminem for “Talk to Me” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 12/01/11 | Filed under Refined Picks, Downloads, Eminem, Young Jeezy, Freddie Gibbs

First Andre 3000 and Jay-Z, now Eminem? With this many mega star features it's a little hard to figure out why Young Jeezy's "TM103" album took so long to come out. Or more accurately, why he released so much crap for so long if he was sitting on tracks like "Talk to Me". Listen and download...

Surprise…Surprise…Vibe Magazine Hits Us With Their Eminem, Yelawolf Cover (Pic)

Yelawolf is really racking up the magazine covers this year. The rapper closes out the year with yet another magazine cover courtesy of Vibe magazine. The cover features both Yelawolf and Eminem along with the somewhat annoying subtitle, "Is Hip-Hop Finally Color Blind?" Can we finally let Eminem and Yela be be great rappers without having to mention color? See more...

Yelawolf & Eminem’s New Track Is So Dope I Want to “Throw Up”

Posted by Nathan S. on 11/11/11 | Filed under Top Stories, Eminem, Yelawolf, Gangsta Boo

Yes, of course I was excited to hear Eminem throw down a verse on his Shady Records prodigal son Yelawolf's new single "Throw It Up", but on the real? I was more excited about Gangsta Boo. I mean, of course everyone wants an Em verse on their album, but who puts Ms. Call Before You Come on their major label debut? God I fucking love me with some Yelawolf.

Because I love both over-thinking things and arguing, allow me to present my first annual whenever the fuck I feel like updating Hip-Hop Power Rankings: The Top 5. Before we get started, here are the three completely subjective criteria I'm using to assess "power".

Shady Records’ Ridiculously Dope Cypher, Now For Your iPod (Listen & Download)

After we all instantly and unanimously agreed that the Shady Records BET Cypher put every other cypher in a choke hold and put it to sleep (no offense Tity Boi) we finally and inevitably have the high quality audio. I know I put the video right above, but I recommend listening to this at least the first time around on audio only. You'll catch a lot of lines on headphones only mode that you miss on the visuals.

Let’s Just Take A Minute To Admire This Shady 2.0 Hip-Hop Awards Cypher (Video)

Oddly enough, if BET combined all the Hip-Hop cyphers into one they'd have over half-an-hour's worth of footage. Hint! Hint! Drop the awards and performances we just want cyphers! It's no question that the Shady 2.0 cypher was the hands down favorite of the show, but does anyone have any other favorites? I thought the B.o.B cypher was pretty on point. See more...

Goddamn Eminem’s Done a Lot (Video)

We're all familiar with Eminem's story, but this new series, narrated by Shady Records co-founder Paul Rosenberg, is a dope reminder of just how much Marshall Mathers. For example, I know it's obvious, but somehow I always forget that Em really helped put 50 on. See more...

Remember When Eminem Could Freestyle Like a Motherf**ker? (Video & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 09/16/11 | Filed under Top Stories, Refined Picks, Downloads, Eminem, Freestyles

I saw this classic Dilated Peoples (Rakaa & Evidence) and Eminem track on the house of dope and it set me off on a three hour Eminem freestyle binge. Listen, I'm genuinely glad the man's sober now, and that he's the only rapper who can make legitimately dope music and outsell Lil Wayne, but honestly? I miss the old school, freestyle like a motherfucker Em. Listen, watch and download...

Eminem & Royce Da 5’9's “Fast Lane” Placement Is Perfect For This NBA 2K12 Promo (Video)

Looking at this video promo for NBA 2K12 it's hard to believe that video games looked like this just a few years ago. For this latest NBA 2K12 promo Eminem and Royce da 5'9's "Fast Lane" track was used to up the wow factor a bit and I think the placement of the song was perfect. The promo's cool and all, but I still feel like the NBA 2K series has nothing on a good game of Resident Evil. But that's just me. See more...

Geez, Eminem’s “Space Bound” Video Is Depressing & Confusing (Video Breakdown)

Posted by Danielle Harling on 06/27/11 | Filed under Top Stories, Eminem, Video Breakdown

Aside from being one of the better rappers out Eminem always seems to release hella interesting music videos. His latest music video, “Space Bound,” was filmed a while ago so the anticipation has just been building for its release. And alas the video for the song finally dropped this week. Now it’s time to break it on down. See more...
