(Video) Swizz Beatz and Dr. Dre rock a night club #Detox

Nothin like a lil Swizz to brighten things up









What you need to Know:
1. Detox is coming (yes I know, you've grown and don't care that Santa doesn't exist anymore)
2. Swizz is giving EVERYONE his right about now. Kanye, Jay, and Drake would have to agree.
3. Dre switched up the flow, switched up the delivery, still G-FUNKY. Definitely the best leak of the mythical  album YET.




UPDATE: Apparently, the Interscope drones have been pretty good about finding REAL clips of this song, because every clip I post is taken down 5 minutes later. MENTION me if you're tryna hear it and can't wait till Detox.

Beamin to his 1st #1 Album













What you need to Know:
1. This is Lupe's least favorite work. Read his words.

3.  Turns out everybody CAN win in record label battles.  Lupe's reacts below.

Update: That caption was written BEFORE I saw the MTV post.  That either means it's a lazy metaphor, or that I could do their writing staff's job... or both.

To see his reaction just...

(Video) Lil Wayne - 6'7" (Ft. Cory Gunz)




















What you need to Know:
1. This is inspired by the movie of the year, Inception. Not nearly as clever, but it was a great opportunity to dunk Weezy F in a bathtub.
2. The infamous silent Lasagna made it into the video!
3.Ofcourse, no Young Money/Cash Money music video is complete without a slow reel of CEO Birdman doing some cool *hit (smoking, rubbing his hands together, or makin it rain)

P.S.
All being said, I love videos where the director commits to the song's wordplay, and pacing.
To Enjoy it just...
