Designer Brian Wood and Brooklyn boutique Vinnie’s Styles come together to pay tribute to the some of the best MC’s from the BEST DECADE EVER with their new 90′s Alumni T-shirt.

The time has finally come, one of the most anticipated albums of the year thus far has finally dropped. With production by Ro Blvd., if you don’t cop this free album both U-N-I- and Ro poured their blood, sweat and tears into, I highly suggest you go use a Slap Chop on your genitals.

He wasted no time in getting back out there after he was released from the big house.
“My new mixtape is called Writing on Da Wall,” he explained in Atlanta recently. “I started working on it when I got out of jail. … I put some of the best verses I think I ever wrote on it. I’m gearing them up for my album … I just went hard in on ‘em. Me and DJ Holiday came up with a concept and put a lot of lifetime experiences on them songs.” Continue reading this post…
“We all grew up in the same little town. It was interesting at first cuz we ain’t really like each other. Pimp & I have very different personalities. The reason we ain’t like each other was because we didn’t know each other, we had both already kinda made up our minds, I guess, about what type of nigga the other was. He tried to call me out on some shit at football game and I told him he was dead wrong so he had to respect it. And from then we was wit each other.”
Daytona: This track right here reminded me of some Reasonable Doubt shit, gave me the Feelin It vibe… So I had to get Amanda on it to solidify everything, and she definitely did her thing on it! Sit back n enjoy… Come Fly With Me EP on the way
