Billboard Thursdays: Kendrick Lamar - Swimming Pools (Drank)
E o primeiro lugar dessa semana se mantem na mão do 2 Chainz. No entanto, o que me alegra mesmo é ver alguém tao talentoso quanto o Kendrick Lamar finalmente sendo o destaque da semana. Ele chegou na sua posição mais alta no top 25 de Rap da Billboard com Swimming Pools, musica produzida pelo T-Minus e que estará no seu próximo album, good kid, m.A.A.d city. A batida soa como algo que ficaria bem na voz do Drake (como a maioria das produções do T-Minus), mas o Kendrick manda muito bem nas letras e flow em cima da batida. Enfim, pra ver o clipe pouco usual é só clicar acima e abaixo vocês podem ver o top 25 da semana.
Top 25
1- 2 Chainz feat. Drake - No Lie
2- Kanye West, Big Sean, Pusha T & 2 Chainz - Mercy
3- French Montana feat. Rick Ross, Drake & Lil Wayne - Pop That
4- Future - Turn On The Lights
5- Meek Mill feat. Drake - Amen
6- Kanye West, Jay-Z & Big Sean - Clique
7- Flo Rida - Whistle
8- 2 Chainz feat. Kanye West - Birthday Song
9- Juicy J feat. Lil Wayne & 2 Chainz - Bandz A Make Her Dance
10- Ca$h Out - Cashin' Out
11- Wiz Khalifa - Work Hard, Play Hard
12- Wale feat. Rick Ross, Meek Mill & T-Pain - Bag Of Money
13- J. Cole feat. Missy Elliott - Nobody's Perfect
14- DJ Khaled - Take It To The Head
15- Young Jeezy feat. Ne-Yo - Leave You Alone
16- Chief Keef feat. Lil Reese - I Don't Like
17- Kendrick Lamar - Swimming Pools (Drank)
18- Rick Ross feat. Wale & Drake - Diced Pineapples
19- DJ Drama, 2 Chainz, Meek Mill & Jeremih - My Moment
20- 50 Cent feat. Dr. Dre & Alicia Keys - New Day
21- DJ Khaled feat. Kanye West & Rick Ross - I Wish You Would
22- Lil Wayne feat. Detail - No Worries
23- T.I. - Go Get It
24- Mykko Montana feat. K-Camp - Do It
25- Clyde Carson feat. The Team - Slow Down
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this week's top spot, 2 Chainz still remains with No Lie. What really cheers me up though is this week's highlight. It makes me very glad to see Kendrick Lamar ocuppying his highest position on Billboard's Hot Rap Charts. The song was produced by T-Minus and sound like it would make a perfect Drake song, but Kendrick complements it very well with his lyrics and flow. If you wanna check the dope song and unusual video, please click above.

Rockie Fresh feat. Rick Ross - You A Lie (Remix)
Pra quem não sabe, o ultimo rapper a assinar com a Maybach Music do Rick Ross é o Rockie Fresh, de Chicago. Esse é o som mais famoso dele, que ganhou um remix do chefe da gravadora. A flow e as letras do Rockie não são ruins, mas tambem não são nada demais. O destaque mesmo nesse som fica pra ótima batida, que é muito bem complementada pela flow do Rozay. O Meek Mill num som desse teria destruido também, mas ae acho que seria jogar o pobre Rockie muito pra baixo. Enfim, clicando acima vocês podem ouvir o som e ver o Rockie Fresh dando role na sua Lamborghini Murcielago e o Rozay na sua Ferrari 458 Italia.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For those who ain't know, the latest rapper to sign to Rick Ross' Maybach Music is Chicago's Rockie Fresh. This is his most famous single, that earned a remix by the label's boss. Rockie's flow and lyrics ain't too bad, but they ain't great either. What really grabs the attention is the great beat they handled him, that is only complimented by Rozay's flow. Meek Mill would've destroyed such a track, but I guess it would've been puting Rockie too low. Well, you can check Rockie rolling in his Lamborghini Murcielago, Rozay rolling in his Ferrari 458 Italia and the song above.

Gunplay - Bible on the Dash
O Gunplay da MMG lancou a algumas semanas a mixtape 601 & Snort,e enquanto na mixtape ele ataca principalmente instrumentais do Wu-Tang Clan e sons clássicos do rap de Miami, daonde ele vem, uma das melhores musicas da mixtape é esse som, produzido pelo Morris Brothers, que é mais atual e no qual a gente ve um Gunplay bem mais introspectivo, estilo o que ele fez na Cartoon & Cereal do Kendrick Lamar. Pra ouvir é só clicar abaixo.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MMG's Gunplay has released a few weeks ago his latest mixtape, called 601 & Snort, and while in the mixtape he mostly tackles Wu-Tang Clan instrumentals and beats from Miami's old school rap circle, in one of the tape's greatest song, produced by the Morris Brothers, he rhymes over a much more modern beat and we're able to see a way more introspective Gunplay, reminiscing what he did on Kendrick Lamar's Cartoon & Cereal. If you wanna check it, click below.

Oldies: Ghostface Killah - Mighty Healthy
Voces provavelmente já sabem disso, mas semana passada foi lançado o Cruel Summer, album feito pelos artistas da GOOD Music, do Kanye West. Um dos melhores sons do album é New God Flow, que possui um sample da musica acima e também uma participação do próprio Ghostface. Achei que seria uma boa oportunidade pra por esse som clássico do Ghost, do melhor album dele na minha opinião, o Supreme Clientele, e produzido pelo produtor afiliado do Wu-Tang, o Mathematics. Enfim, cliquem acima pra ouvir esse som clássico.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unless you live under a rock you probably know that last week Cruel Summer, the album made by Kanye West's GOOD Music label, was released. One of the best songs from that album was New God Flow and the main sample that was used on that was from the song above, by Ghostface. The album version of the song also has a feature by Ghost himself. I thought since that happened it would be a nice time to shine a light on this classic song by this great rapper, off his greatest album, Supreme Clientele. It was produced by Wu-Tang affiliate Mathematics and if you wanna check the song, please click above.
Miguel feat. Ma$e - Adorn (Remix)
Então, em um dos destaques de mixtapes mensais que eu faco aqui eu já mencionei a ótima série Art Dealer Chic que o Miguel fez. Ele realmente está despontando como um dos melhores e mais criativos cantores de R&B por ai (o que não é pouco). Pois bem, o Ma$e, rapper do Harlem antigamente afiliado com a Bad Boy do Diddy e que tá tendo um revival ultimamente devido ao som que ele fez pro Cruel Summer, fez um remix bem interessante do single que mais fez sucesso dessas Mixtapes e que atualmente está no primeiro lugar da parada de R&B & Hip-Hop da Billboard. Enfim, o Ma$e combinou bem com o som do Miguel e para ouvi-los é só clicar abaixo.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In one of my monthly mixtape highlights I've mentioned Miguel's great Art Dealer Chic series. He is realling blowing up right now as one of the msot creative and successful R&B artists out there right now (which really ain't a small feat). Ma$e, an old school Harlem rapper that used to be affiliated to Diddy's Bad Boy records is really having a revival right now, with one of his highlights being his participation on GOOD Music's Cruel Summer. He decided to do a remix of the most successful single from Miguel's mixtape (which is actually ocuppying the first place on Billboard's R&B & Hip-Hop charts) and the combination of them both ended up pretty interesting. Click below to check it.
Main Attrakionz feat. DaVinci - Do It For the Bay
Mais um exemplo do ótimo rap que está sendo feito na Baia de San Francisco ultimamente é esse som do Main Attrakionz (formado pelos rappers Squadda B e Mondre M.A.N.) e pelo seu conterrâneo DaVinci. Esses caras já trabalhavam com diversos produtores muito inovadores, como o Clams Casino, a muito tempo atrás, e esse som produzido pelo Harry Fraud merece ser ouvido. Ele estará na mixtape Bossalinis & Fooliyones que será lancada em 22 de Outubro. Clique abaixo pra ouvir o som.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another example of great rap being done on San Francisco's Bay is this song by Main Attrakionz (the group formed by rappers Squadda B and Mondre M.A.N.) and another rapper from the bay, DaVinci. A long while ago they already did some pretty innovative shit with some great producers such as Clams Casino, and this new song, which was done by Harry Fraud deserves a listen. It will be on their Bossalinis & Fooliyones which will be released by October 22nd. Click below to hear it.

Busdriver feat. Terra Lopez - Take This Step With Me and Never Come Back
Geralmente quando um rapper é técnico o suficiente pra fazer rimas bem rápidas ele fica nessa mesma. Digamos que por ter essa tecnicalidade eles não experimentam muito com conceitos novos ou com o lado menos conhecido do hip-hop e tal. Pois bem, o Busdriver nao é um desses caras xD. O som dele é bem unico, mas é realmente muito bom de se ouvir, e as letras, flow e o contexto do som dele é bem legal. Clique abaixo pra ouvir!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Usually when a rapper is technical enough to do very fast rhymes, he doesn't try to do many different stuff. Since this tecnicality is good by itself, they don't really experiment with different concepts and alternative hip-hop. Well, Busdriver ain't one of this usual rapper xD. His sound is pretty unique, but it's really nice to hear. His flow, lyrics and context are all very interesting and you should really click below to check him out.

Action Bronson - It's Me
Há, o Action Bronson é uma figura mesmo. Esse som ele fez com o seu parceiro Party Supplies (ao lado na foto) que produziu o som e já fez uma mixtape com ele esse ano. Enfim, ela tem um toque bem tropical e é bem divertida, sugiro clicar abaixo pra ouvir qual é.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Action Bronson is really something. This song he did with his partner Party Supplies (by his side on the pic) which produced the whole thing and has also done a mixtape with Bronson this year. It's got a real tropical tune to it and it's pretty dope, so I suggest y'all click below to check it.

The song was produced by Hit-Boy, Kanye West, Anthony Kilhoffer and Noah Goldstein and it is on the album G.O.O.D. Music put out last week, Cruel Summer.

Pusha T, Raekwon & Joell Ortiz - Tick, Tock
1/2 do Clipse, 1/4 do Slaughterhouse e 1/9 do Wu-Tang Clan se juntam num som no estilo classico do rap. A batida ficou por conta do Frank Dukes e do S-1 e o resultado todo ficou muito bom. Quando se junta o Chef e o Pusher, é de se esperar que o papo do som seja justamente sobre coca, do jeito que ambos consagraram e que o próprio Joell Ortiz faz muito bem tambem. O som faz parte da trilha sonora de The Man With the Iron Fists, o filme que o RZA lançará em breve. Pra ouvir o som é só clicar abaixo.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1/2 of Clipse, 1/4 of Slaughterhouse and 1/9 of the Wu-Tang Clan get together to do a classic rap track on the song below. The beat was done by Frank Dukes and S-1 and the results are dope, as you might have imagined. The subject of the song? Well, when you get the Chef and the Pusher together, it can't be nothing but coke talk. Having two of the rappers that consagrated this style along with Joell Ortiz, that does it pretty well too makes the song work. The song is part of The Man With The Iron Fists Soundtrack, the movie made by RZA that will soon be released. Click below to check the song.

O AraabMuzik é um produtor de rap e é um dos mais fodas hoje em dia. Ver o video dele acima fazendo uma batida no MPC pra esse comercial da Akai não é nada além de incrivel. Clique acima pra ver.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AraabMuzik is a rap producer and is one of the dopest out there in the game. To see this video of him doing a beat from scratch on a MPC for this Akai commercial is nothing short of incredible. Click above to check it.

Frank Ocean - Pyramids
frank ocean [pyramids] from christopher francis ocean on Vimeo.
Esse é um blog de rap e o Frank Ocean definitivamente não é um rapper, mas esse video e essa musica definitivamente merecem um destaque aqui. A musica (que no clipe está cortada e resumida a apenas uma parte) é uma epopéia fudida, acho que a melhor musica que eu ouvi esse ano inteiro, isso que eu ouço muitas... Enfim, ela é incrivel, e o clipe surrealista combina bem com ela. Ele leva a estética de Novacane (que também foi dirigido pelo Nabil) mais além ainda, de uma maneira que é melhor vocês clicarem acima para verem. O John Mayer ainda aproveita e faz um solo muito bom no final da musica... Enfim, cliquem acima que vocês não se arrependerão.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a rap blog, and Frank Ocean definitelly ain't a rapper, but this video and this song deserve a place here without a doubt anyway. The song (which in the video appears cut to a shorter version than the original one) is a full blown rhapsody and it might be the best song I've heard the whole year... The surrealist video directed by Nabil also matches it pretty well. John Mayer also appears by the end of the video doing a guitar solo version of the song. The whole thing is amazing, you shouldn't miss it, so click above.

Danny Brown in Gypped by a Crackhead
Esse video é basicamente do Danny Brown contando uma história da época que ele vendia pedra em Detroit. Enfim, o cara é engraçado e tal, mas até aí seria algo normal. O legal é que a Pitchfork decidiu fazer uma animação descrevendo o que o Danny falou no estilo do desenho Manda Chuva, da Hanna-Barbera. Enfim, o resultado é bem divertido e eu aconselho quem entende inglês a dar uma olhada xD.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is basically a video of Danny Brown telling a story from his crack-selling times in Detroit. Danny is a funny guy, but it would be pretty plain if Pitchfork didn't had the idea to do an animation of the story just like the Top Cat animation by Hanna-Barbera. It's pretty cool, so click above to check it.

Rittz - Questions (2012 Remix)
Entao, o Rittz é um rapper branco, do sul dos States e ele é talentoso pra caramba. Como a maioria dos rappers brancos que se dão bem no rap, ele tem aquela double-time flow, mais rápida que o normal e tal, que tu já espera de caras como o Eminem e o Yelawolf. Enfim, ele assinou com a gravadora do Tech N9ne e pra celebrar a parceira ele fez um remix da clássica Questions do próprio Tech. Ficou muito foda o som e pra ver o video dessa versão é só clicar acima.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rittz is a white southern rapper, and one hell of a rapper. Like most white rappers that make it in the game, he's got that double-time flow you already expect from guys such as Eminem and Yelawolf. He recently signed to Tech N9ne's label and to celebrate the partnership he decided to do his own take on the classic Questions by Tech. It ended up dope as fuck, click above to check it.
Ace Hood - Leggo
O Ace Hood nunca foi o rapper mais interessante ou o rapper mais técnico, mas com uns contatos com o DJ Khaled, Rick Ross e Birdman, ele sempre consegue umas batidas e umas participações interessante pra ele. Dessa vez a batida foi provida pelo Mike Will e parece que o cara se inspirou pra rimar algo no nivel da batida que arranjaram pra ele. Enfim, o som é bem interessante e se vocês quiserem checar o Ace rimando no sttripclub e ouvir o som é só clicar acima.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ace Hood was never the most technical or interesting rapper, but with connects such as DJ Khaled, Rick Ross and Birdman, he was always able to get some dope beats and interesting features for his songs. This time the beat was provided by Mike Will and it seems he got inspired to rhyme something on the level of the dope, heavy beat he was handed. The song is pretty cool so if you wanna check the song and Ace rhyming on the stripclub, click above.
ASVP C4 Documentary
A$AP ROCKY: A$VP C4 from Luke Monaghan on Vimeo.
Então, na época que o A$AP Rocky foi para Londres foi feito o documentário acima, sobre o A$AP Rocky e a sua A$AP Mob, que além de ter várias cenas de videos, shows e etc envolvendo o rapper, ainda tem depoimentos dele, do seu agente A$AP Yams e outro rapper da A$AP Mob, o A$AP Twelvy. Bem interessante, clique acima pra ver qual é.

Beside some video and show footage, you might also check above both his agent, A$AP Yams, and one of the rappers in his crew, A$AP Twelvy, talking a bit about him and his movement. It's pretty interesting, so click above to check it.
Curren$y & Harry Fraud - Leaving The Dock
O Curren$y tem uma estética meio oitentista foda pra caralho, as rimas dele passam o estilo de vida Jet Life e o som dele cada vez mais expande e explica essa estética. No seu ultimo EP, o Cigarette Boats, todo produzido pelo Harry Fraud, ele se junta com o genial produtor e como o som dos dois tem muito a ver, os resultados foram ótimos. O clipe acima é de uma das musicas do EP e nele vocës podem acompanhar um pouco mais do Jets Lifestyle, seja vendo ele acender uma erva, dar uma volta no seu Bentley Arnage ou fazendo as outras coisas que ele faz. Clique acima pra ver qual é.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Curren$y has got a whole eighties aesthetic that's dope as fuck. He passes to the listener this feeling through his rhymes, flow, videos and basically everything he does. In his latest EP, Cigarette Boats, fully produced by Harry Fraud, he gets together with the genious producer to do his songs, and since they've got a lot in common musically, the results are great. Above you might check a video from one of the EP's songs and you can also check a little bit more of the Jet Life, being it lighting up his weed, rolling on his Bentley Arnage or any of the other stuff he does.

Rick Ross - Presidential
God Forgives, I Don't, o ultimo album do Rick Ross, tem os seus momentos bons e os seus momentos não tao bons assim. Esse, pra mim, é um dos mais altos do album. Sou suspeito de falar porque eu adoro o tipo de produção que os Neptunes fazem (apesar de o Pharrell ter produzido esse som sozinho). Enfim, a batida complementa muito bem a flow do Ross, que não desaponta também, e o refrão do Elijah Blake também é muito bom. Pra ver qual é, clique acima.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
God Forgives, I Don't, Rick Ross' last album, had it's great and not-so-great moments. This one though is one of the greatest in my opinion. I'm suspicious to say cause I enjoy a lot pretty much everything The Neptunes do musically (even though this song was produced by Pharrell alone). Well, the beat complements Ross' whole vibe very well, his lyrics don't disappoint and Elijah Blake's hook is dope too. You can check it all clicking above.
Billboard Thursdays: Juicy J feat. Lil Wayne & 2 Chainz - Bandz A Make Her Dance
We Trippy Mane! 2 Chainz continua na liderança do top 25 de rap da Billboard e está também no destaque da semana, dessa vez numa musica do Juicy J.

We Trippy Mane! 2 Chainz continues in the first place and is also on this week's highlight, this time on a song made by Juicy J. For those who ain't know Juicy he is a rap veteran from the Three Six Mafia, known for their Stay Fly single and for winning the Oscars for a song they did for the Hustle & Flow movie. A few years ago Lex Luger decided to produce almost the entirety of a mixtape for him and Wiz Khalifa added him to his Taylor Gang, and since that his profile has rised. He is now more successful as a solo act and has been going hard with his mixtapes. This song is on the re-release of his Blue Dream & Lean tape and the remix of it with Deuce and Tunechi is going higher and higher on the rap charts. If you wanna check the Mike Will produced song all you gotta do is click above. You can also check this week's Top 25 Hot Rap Chart from Billboard above.
Kanye West, Jay-Z & Big Sean - Clique
Aaaah caralho, agora sim xD. The Throne se junta com o Big Sean numa batida do Hit-Boy, fazem a sua versao de Crew Love e o resultado é Clique. Sei lá, me faltam palavras pra descrever esse som. A batida é demais, e apesar do verso do Big Sean ser bom o Kanye e Jay-Z passeiam pela musica com os seus versos. Musica da mais alta qualidade de dois perfeccionistas, e do Jay-Z tentando um espanhol até o Kanye voltando ao tema que ele introduziu no ultimo verso de All Falls Down, tudo se encaixa perfeitamente. Quem ainda náo ouviu deveria faze-lo nesse exato momento, clicando abaixo.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh damn, now that's what the fuck I'm talking about. The Throne gets together with Big Sean on a Hit-Boy beat to do their version of Crew Love and the result is Clique. I don't know, I'm kind of short of word to describe this song. The beat is so damn dope, and even though Sean represents, Kanye and Jay-Z swerve through their verses. High quality music from this two perfeccionists, from Jigga trying his spanish to Kanye getting back to All Falls Down's last verse theme, everything fit perfectly. Those who ain't heard it yet should do it now, clicking below.

Power Circle, Alife and Maybach Music Group from Alife New York on Vimeo.

DJ Scream feat. Rick Ross, Slim Thug & Bun B - Cassette Deck
O DJ da MMG se junta com o seu chefe e dois ótimos rappers de Texas pra prestar um tributo ao Pimp C (que se bem feitos, nunca são demais). A vibe é bem aquela que o próprio Pimp C já evocava nas suas musicas e uma na qual eu náo costumo ouvir muito o Ross. O som estará no álbum Long Live the Hustle do DJ Scream e vocês podem ouvir o som abaixo.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The MMG DJ gets together with his Boss and two great Texas rappers to do a tribute to the late Pimp C (tributes that, if done well, are never too much). This song evoques the vibe that Pimp C had in many of the songs he produced for UGK, one that I don`t really listen Ross usually on. The song will be on Scream`s Long Live the Hustle and you can check the song below.

Talib Kweli feat. Black Thought & Ab-Soul - Congregation
O Talib Kweli ta ai a muuuito tempo, a propria carreira de ninguem menos que o Kanye West nao seria a mesma coisa sem o cara, e com esse som (e a sua nova mixtape Attack The Block, na qual ela esta), o rapper apenas prova como ele ainda é relevante e consistente. No som ele se junta com o MC do grupo The Roots, o Black Thought, assim como um dos melhores dessa nova geracao, o Ab-Soul, do Black Hippy, tudo numa batida do J Rhodes. O som é muito foda e voce pode ouvi-lo clicando abaixo.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Talib Kweli is in the game for a while now and the career of many, including the great Kanye West, wouldn`t be the same without his touch. With this song, which is on his latest mixtape, Attack The Block, the rapper proves how he is still relevant and consistent. On the song he gets together with the MC of The Roots, Black Thought, and one of the best rappers from the new generation, Ab-Soul, from Black Hippy, all that on a J Rhodes beat. The song is dope and you can check it below.

It`s worth clicking above, so do it.
Azealia Banks - 1991

Clique acima pra ver o video.

Click above to do that.
MellowHype - La Bonita
Um dos grupos que forma o coletivo Odd Future acabou de lançar o vídeo de uma de suas ótimas musicas. O vídeo em questão é o de La Bonita, do MellowHype, grupo formado pelo Hodgy Beats e Left Brain.

Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire - Position of Passion
Então, o Mr. Muthafuckin`eXquire (hoje em dia Mr. MFN eXquire, que é bem menos divertido, então não chamarei ele assim) lançou esse som em cima de uma batida pre-Get Rich or Die Tryin do 50 Cent e saiu um puta som. O clipe é basicamente ele se divertindo com uns camaradas e uma strippers, mas vale a pena ver. Clique acima pra checar.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire (which nowadays is Mr. MFN eXquire, which is a much less fun name, so I will still call him by the old one) released this song on a pre-Get Rich Or Die Tryin[ 50 Cent beat, and it ended up dope as fuck. The video is basically him having some fun with some homies and strippers, but it`s worth checking, so click above to do it.

Billboard Thursdays: 2 Chainz feat. Kanye West - Birthday Song
2 Chaaaainz na liderança e também no destaque da semana do top 25 de rap da Billboard, porém com duas musicas diferentes. A que lidera a parada é No Lie e o destaque da semana é Birthday Song. Esse clipe foi lançado a pouco tempo e eu até pensei em postá-lo aqui mas já imaginava que ele seria o destaque da semana da Billboard, portanto está aqui. O clipe é completamente aleatório com umas coisas loucas pra caralho, uma mistura do que seria um video dirigido tanto pelo Kanye quanto pelo Tyler the Creator (apesar de não ter sido dirigido por nenhum dos dois, mas sim pelo Andreas Nilsson), mas é beeem divertido, foge do que tu geralmente espera desse tipo de video. A musica também é ótima e foi produzida por um line-up de ótimos produtores (mais especificamente, pelo Sonny Digital, Kanye West, B Wheezy, Anthony Kilhoffer, Lifted e Mike Dean). Finalmente, os versos são aquele show de ignorância que se espera do 2 Chainz, mas o Kanye consegue ainda roubar o show do Tity Boy no jogo dele com alguns versos bem engraçados. Enfim, tudo que diz respeito a essa musica é bem divertido e vocês deveriam clicar acima para vê-lo. Abaixo vocês podem ver o top 25 da semana.

2 Chaaaaaainz on the lead and also on the highlight of this week, but with two different songs. The song on the lead is No Lie, but this week's highlight is Birthday Song. This video was released just a little while ago and I thought of posting it, but I imagined it would be this week's Billboard highlight, so here it is. The video is very random with a bunch of crazy stuff that you would expect on something done by both Kanye and Tyler the Creator (even though the video was actually directed by Andreas Nilsson) but it is actually pretty funny, kinda different from what you would expect a video like this to be. The song is great too and was produced by a line-up of great producers (more specifically by Sonny Digital, Kanye West, B Wheezy, Anthony Kilhoffer, Lifted and Mike Dean). Finally, the verses show the kind of ignorance you already expect from a song by Tity Boy, but Kanye still manages to steal the show on his own game with some pretty great and memorable lines. Well, the whole thing is pretty enjoyable, so you should definitelly click above to check it. Above you can also check this week's Billboard Hot Rap Chart Top 25.

Nicki Minaj feat. Rick Ross & Cam'ron - I Am Your Leader
Clipe locão estilo os que a Nicki costuma fazer. Enfim, assim como Come On A Cone e Beez In The Trap, essa é uma puta musica foda direto do Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, e eu to postando o video mais por que eu curto a musica mesmo. O som foi produzido pelo Hit-Boy e vocês podem ouví-lo clicando acima.

Crazy ass video we're used to seeing Nicki release. Like Come On A Cone and Beez In The Trap, it's another great banger straight from Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, and I'm basically posting the video cause I really dig the song. It was produced by Hit-Boy and you can check it by clicking above.

Common - No Sell Out
Então, apareceu na net a pouco tempo esse som, do tradicional rapper de Chicago, Common. Ele foi produzido pelo seu antigo colaborador e mentor do Kanye West, o No I.D. Aparentemente esse som foi feito nas sessions do ultimo album do Common, o The Dreamer/The Believer, e poderia ter facilmente feito parte do album. Enfim, pelo menos temos a oportunidade de ouvir o som agora, e é só clicar abaixo pra fazer isso.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A few days ago this track popped out on the net. On this track by the traditional Chicago rapper, his frequenty collaborator and Kanye West mentor, No I.D. did producer duties. It was done on The Dreamer/The Believer (Common's last album) sessions, and for some reasons it ended up being cut out, but it could easily have become a part of that. At least you get a chance to hear it now, clicking below.

The-Dream feat. Pusha T - Dope Bitch
The-Dream "Dope Bitch" from IDJVID on Vimeo.
Então, eu sempre curti R&B, ainda mais quando é de uns caras que realmente tem boas letras e tentam trazer uma estética nova pro gênero. Antes da renascença do gênero com caras como o Frank Ocean, Miguel e The Weeknd, quem exemplificava melhor pra mim isso era justamente The-Dream. Como o próprio The-Dream produz as suas musicas (geralmente só com a ajuda do Tricky Stewart e LOS da Mystro) e tem a experiência com as musicas de diversos outros artistas pop, ele tem um campo bem grande para experimentar, e eu sempre curti isso nele. Dessa vez ele compara a mina dele a cocaina, e convida ninguém menos que o especialista no assunto, Pusha T. O resultado é dope como a mina do Dream xD. Clique acima pra ver o video e ouvir o som.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I always liked R&B, but I like it even better when there's an artist with great lyrics and that really tries to push his aesthetic on the genre. Before the genre got into a renassaince with artists such as Frank Ocean, Miguel and The Weeknd, the artist that best exemplified that for me was him. Since The-Dream himself produces most of his stuff (with the help of Tricky Stewart and LOS da Mystro sometimes) and he also has the experience of producing for other great pop artists, he has a great field for him to experiment, and I always digged that in him. This time he compares his bitch to cocaine and he invites no one put the specialist on the subject, Pusha T, to add his touch to the mix. The results are as dope as Dream's bitch xD. Click above to check it.
Lupe Fiasco - Bitch Bad
O Lupe já foi o rapper que eu mais admirava durante uma época em que eu ouvia rap, e ele infelizmente caiu um bocado desde essa época, então é bom vê-lo devolta no caminho que eu gosto de ouvi-lo. Na letra e no video quase literal (mas que complementa muito bem a letra) dessa musica, o Lupe desconstrói os significados de "Bad Bitch" pra duas pessoas influenciadas por essas palavras de diferentes formas. Não vou contar o resto do video, mas é interessante também ver a jogada dele de comparar os ministréis e os Blackface americanos do inicio do século passado com o que os rappers são hoje em dia. Enfim, o som é legal, assim como o vídeo, então clica acima aew pra ver/ouvir.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lupe has been one of the rappers I admired the most in my lifetime, but after a while, in my opinion, he fell off a lot, so it's nice to see him back in his tracks doing something in which I enjoy him. In the lyrics and on the almost literal video (but a very nice compliment to the lyrics) for this song he deconstructs the meaning of what "Bad Bitch" means to two people from different backgrounds. I won't tell you everything abouyt the video, but it's pretty interesting to see him comparing the ministrel shows and the Blackfaces from the beginning of the last century to the role rappers have in today's society. You can check this cool video clicking above.

T.I. - Go Get It
O T.I. ultimamente parece estar errando mais do que acertando, mas é sempre bom ver um cara foda como ele se sentir confortável pra mandar o que ele sabe num som. Esse, produzido pelo T-Minus, estará no seu próximo album Trouble Man e eu curti um bocado. Clique acima pra ver qual é.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lately T.I. seems to be doing more wrong than right, but it's always good to see a dope rapper such as him feel confortable over a beat. This one was produced by T-Minus and it will be on his next album, Trouble Man. I quite liked it, so click above to check if you do too.
