IMG_2742

A lot of folks carried over last week’s Jay-Z’s ‘4:44’ barz into this week. I agree that album is one of the best this year and filled with gems. Don’t sleep on this week’s releases. Although it was a slow and short week due to the 4th of July holiday, we still got some solid barz from Lil Wayne, Meek Mill, French Montana, Joey Bada$$, and others.

Check out the hottest barz from July 3rd to the 9th below.

LIL WAYNE – “LOYALTY”

Two months after releasing his staggering 15th studio album ‘Neva Left’, Snoop Dogg exercises his freedom from labels and drops “Transition.” Over the Jahlil Beats-produced track, Snoop keeps the same kind of energy from ‘Neva Left’ and delivers his gangsta flow.

Snoop is said to be working on a Gospel album. At this point of his career it shouldn’t be surprising with the OG having already experimented with a Reggae album.

Having received a key to his city of Detroit recently and his Eminem-assisted “No Favors” single going gold today, saying Big Sean is winning would be an understatement.

Sean Don lead off with a captivating, awakening, inspiring, solo performance of “Light,” where he went on to preach equality to the crowd saying, “It don’t matter what skin color you are, make sure you spread that light.

Blue Ivy Displays Her Bars On ‘4:44’ Freestyle [LISTEN]

jayblue1

Allow her to reintroduce herself, her name is BLUE! I-to-the-V-Y!

Jay-Z has his successor in his 5-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, who is the heir to “The Throne.” Blue Ivy’s ‘4:44’ freestyle surfaced on the Internet late last night and became an instant trending topic. For about 45-seconds the first-born child of Jay and Bey goes off over a No I.D. produced track.

Looking to follow in her parent’s footsteps, Blue Ivy spit “SUPER FACTS!” rapping, “Never seen a ceiling in my whole life / Boom shakalaka, boom shakalaka, everything in shaka, everything in faka.” She might be better than a lot of these “rappers” today.

Blue’s freestyle also known as “Blue’s Freestyle/We Family” will be included on physical copies of Jay-Z’s ‘4;44’ along with “Adnis” and “ManyFacedGod” featuring James Blake.

It’s to be seen when physical copies will drop, but in the meantime you can listen to Blue’s freestyle below.

New Video: Kid Ink – “Mochi” [WATCH]

kid-ink-mochi

Kid Ink continues to unveil visuals for singles off his ‘7 Series’ project. In his last video for “Lottery,” Ink hit Sin City for some trippy clips, where he was sucked into a vortex mirror. On his latest video for “Mochi” the Bat Gang boss takes the creativeness to another level with 360-degree virtual reality video.

The virtual reality video shows Ink having dinner at a restaurant with friends. As cups are raised for a toast a gunman crashes the dinner and begins to fire off. With the 360-degree technology you can see Ink’s reaction to the gunman and if you flip the angle you can see things from the shooter’s perspective.

“Mochi” follows “Lottery,” “Swish,” “No Strings,” “Supersoaka,” and “F With U” off ‘7 Series’ to get the video treatment.

Watch the video below.

21-savage-issa

‘ISSA’ debut album.

Last year 21 Savage made a statement with his collaborative ‘Savage Mode’ mixtape with Metro Boomin’. Capitalizing on the success, 21 Savage drops his debut album ‘ISSA’, just about a month after announcing it.

Taking the “ISSA” word from his viral interview with DJ Vlad, Savage turned the created word that has since been added to the Oxford dictionary and turned it into the title of his debut album.

Customizing the sound, Savage spits murderous bars all throughout the 13-track album over heavy trap production from some of the hottest producers in the game like Metro Boomin, Zaytoven, DJ Mustard, Pi’erre Bourne, and Southside. Savage also takes the debut to showcase his skills by handling every song with no features.

Press play below and listen to the gem.
