Playlist 05.25.12

Earlier this week, the host of "What Will The Neighbours Think", Basswolf, kindly asked us to fill in his hour while he's photographing leopards in Djibouti. We finally got a small chance to pay Chuck Brown (RIP) some love and got down with some classic disco, boogie and freestyle records -- Which will be a sneak peek on what we'll likely be throwing down for New West Fest in July. Playlist for that is below our regular hour which saw us debut the new Pusha T, "Exodus 23:1"... Which is supposed to be a subliminal diss record for Lil' Wayne.... But isn't. ...But is now. Oh, rap beef.

Playlist 05.18.12

A small debate about Jadakiss' original title for "Consignment" -- "Top 5 Dead Or Alive". Now, we do love Jada and he's definitely up there for top rappers in the world right now, but we think he's more deserving of "Top 50 Dead Or Alive". Nonetheless, Jada is still an incredible rapper and we wouldn't wanna take anything away from him. What do you think??
