Justin Credible’s #LeaksOfTheWeek

Ty Dolla $ign ft. Joe Moses – Paranoid

Really starting to play this new Ty dolla $ign both on radio and in the clubs. I know I’m not the only one that can completely relate to the lyrics in this song (haha). I think this song has a great feel for the summer and it’s something that both guys and girls can vibe to. If you don’t have the Beach House 2 mixtape go download it now.

Migos ft. Drake – Versace

I’ve been hearing about the Migos for a minute they are lighting up the streets in Atlanta. This song is so catchy it’s probably my biggest song in the club right now. Then when you add Drizzy to it you already know what that is. Drake’s verse has everyone ready for his new album #NWTS… “The album is coming September just wait on it.”

Jay-Z & Beyonce – Part II (On The Run)

If you know me you already know that #MCHG is my favorite album out right now. First off I want to congratulate Hov for selling 1.5 million in the first week. Nothing like hearing Mr & Mrs. Carter on the same song. Not ready for the settle down just yet but I’d be lying if said I wouldn’t want a relationship like these two.

So now that were talking music last week I give you my top 3 favorite albums this week I wanna talk about the 2 music stories that come to my mind first.

jcole and drake jay and kanye

The first one is I think it was really dope that J.Cole and Drake issued an apology in regards to the controversial Autism lyric.

“I’m artistic, you ni**as is autistic,retarded” When I first heard the song it didn’t strike me as offensive but putting myself in the shoes of a mother with an autistic child definitely made me change my perspective. I commend Drake and Cole for stepping up and embracing the learning lesson and as people offering an apology.

The second topic that comes to mind was possibly one of the craziest tweets I have ever seen in my life KANYE WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!! LOL! I’m totally a fan and completely respect the brilliant mind of Kanye West I think his tweet about having the greatest verse of all time is RIDICULOUS!

 

I do enjoy the conversation but too many greats have come before Kanye for this to be much of a conversation. LOL

I will offer this I thought it was extremely ironic when listening to verse 2 of “New Slaves” that Kanye is ranting about reporters getting in his face.

“So go and grab the reporters, So I can smash their recorders.”

and then I listened to verse 2 of Jay Z’s “Holy Grail” and I basically hear Jay Z telling people who complain about media hassling to chill out things could be worse.

“I got haters in the paper, photo shoots with paparazzi Can’t even take my daughter for a walk, see ’em by the corner store I feel like I’m cornered off enough is enough, I’m calling this off”

This fame hurt but this chain works, I think back you asked the same person
If this is all you had to deal with, nigga deal with, this shit ain’t work
This light work, camera snapping, my eyes hurt
Niggas dying back where I was birthed, fuck your IRIS and the IRS
Get the hell up off your high horse
You got the shit that niggas die for, dry yours
Why you mad, take the good with the bad
Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water”

Big Brother vs. Little Brother coincidence? I doubt it
I’m a huge fan of Kanye West and I love what he stands for musically, I just think he should focus a little less on the challenges with the paparazzi and continue pushing the culture forward and making great music.

A new album in store this week that I recommend you go get is Rich Gang. Birdman and the homies put together a great album with everyone from Kendrick Lamar to Rick Ross on it.

Also a mixtape you should download if you haven’t already, is Problem’s The Separation mixtape go download that now it’s free and it’s quality LA music.

For more of the songs I’m into and my opinions on top stories listen to J Cruz and myself on the #LIFTOFF every night Monday-Friday from 9-11 on Power 106.

Until Next week enjoy these songs, love music and treat others how you want to be treated.
