Bush greeted with what was overwhelming boos over the cheers, last night throwing the first pitch at Washington Nationals game. He got that over with quickly! Thats the last time he’ll present himself in front of a crowd that wasn’t hand picked!

Following on from our recent round up of mp3 heat I thought I would shine the light on some other mcs making noise in the underground. So if you had been caught up in the G-Unit, Rick Ross, Flo rida side of things. Take some time to give these artists a listen. (Click on any of the images to hear the artists music)
Wale – Washington native, last release was a mixtape, collaborative effort with Mark Ronson. Has since gone on to record with Weezy and Bun B among others. Also featured on upcoming Roots album.
Jay Electronica – The bloggers champion. Signed to Erykah Badu’s label, previously known for leaking tracks out onto obscure websites but soon to be coming out of hiding.
Blu – Album with producer Exile considered to be one of the best of 2007. Just released a new effort with Ta’Raach called C.R.A.C. Knuckles.
Sick Jacken – Member of Soul Assassins camp, last album produced entirely by Muggs. A few months old now but as latin hip-hop tends to get fronted on, alot. Though I would include him in the list.
Slaine – Boston mc, part of La Coka Nostra collective with Ill Bill. Released several mixtapes over the past couple years. Also copped a part in ‘Gone Baby Gone’ written and directed by Ben Affleck, but don’t let that put you off because its not bad at all.

Not much poppin today in the world of hip-hop so I thought I would direct you to a couple of websites I discovered whilst spending too much time of the internet. Firstly we have themeaningofdope.com, a site dedicated to all things 90’s. Highlights include Buckshot performing at Jack the Rapper ‘94, a dodgy Alkaholiks Coast II Coast promo video, artciles from The Source pre Benzino and interview with The Alchemist pre Soul Assassins at his parents house in Beverly Hills.
Secondly check out muxtape.com, this site lets you create your own mixtape and email to your less enlightened friends and collegues who can listen to it online, up to 12 tracks at a time.

First let me just tell you that Gangsta BITCH Remy Ma is awaiting sentencing after being found guilty of assault. She got done for shooting her friend who she suspected of stealing, Claiming it was an accident. LOL.
We know bout friendly fire out in Iraq but this one is taking the biscuit. Anyway she faces up to 25 years in prison.
I do like this pic with the titie out. Classy. Nipple looking ok still as well.
Trina releases tune dissing Lil Wayne
Taking shots at the beast who she think she is? lol
“Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned”
she was one of the “hoes he uses and discards”!
What else?
Oh yeah TI is going to take the plea bargain for his gun charges and that means hes going away for 12 months and has to do 1500 hours of community service. Maybe while he serves his bird this motherfucker can push some iron and bulk up cos DAMN! he looks malnourished .
Theres also some accusations and rumours floating around about Bow Wow being gay.
Personally i don’t give a fuck but if it turns out to be true it would be pretty funny. Bow Wow’s camp and some friend of his have come out denying it, but again who cares??!?!?!

News for those 25 and over.
Remember the days of solid album releases, def jam with a respectable roster and westwood on at 12-3am playing decent records. Seems like a distant memory. Well the closest you can get to those days may just be a night like this:
ARTIST: RAEKWON performing ONLY BUILT 4 CUBAN LINX
SPECIAL GUEST: GHOSTFACE KILLAH
VENUE: KOKO
DATES: MONDAY 19TH MAY 2008
TICKET PRICE: £16.00
VENUE ADDRESS: 1a Camden High Street NW1
VENUE TELEPHONE: 0870 432 5527
Lets hope they stick to the script, because as much as we love the Wu, no-one wants to pay to hear any Rae, post cuban linx album cuts.
In other news Redman & Method Man, also on tour together announced plans for ‘How High 2′ and a follow up to ‘Blackout’.

Mighty Joseph comprises of mc’s Vast Aire from Harlem & Karnaige from Brooklyn. Their album ‘Empire State’ is out now featuring production from Madlib and J-Zone among others as well as appearances from Poison Pen and Murs. Let me say that after feeling slightly baffled and confused after just listening to the Rick Ross album I was extremely glad to stumble across something this good. If I was a lazy journalist I could label this as ‘an underground gem with a street edge’, (in fact it’s so underground right now I cant even find a photo to post up) but as a mere blogger I’m just gonna say this shit is fire!
Heres a couple of tracks to download so you get the idea:
Myspace page to preview rest of the album here
Next step, go here and cop it instead of buying “Trilla”, you can thank me later.

LOL – Scott Storch is selling his Yacht on Ebay for less than $1 million after he paid clse to $20 million. Is this white boy broke or what????!?!?!?!?
After very STRONG rumours that Def Jam bought 100,000 copies of the American gangster Album to help Jay -Z get his little number 1 record, the internet is now full of further rumours about the current number 1 album in America Trila by Rick Ross. It is claimed that def jam have again given their artist a little 100,000 help. Maybe Fat Joe needs a def jam deal to help him out.
The CARTER 3 s coming out soon, so it is speculated and this time no leaks, apparently!
Also a new (official) mixtape is coming out first from the empire and will be the final installation of the popular series the drought is over called the drought is over 5 the grand closing. I will post this up as soon as its out there. but for now here is the first leaked tune from the mixtape called I download HERE
