Here's a little Sol food from the homie Small Eyez. Do yourself a favor a give his new EP From The Sol a listen today...and the day after that...so on and so on. Cover and tracklisting after the jump...
...this infomercial reminds me of that old NWA hotline commercial from back in the day. ya'll remember that?
Not sure about ya'll but ever since I got put onto Freddie Gibbs I've gone back and listened to all of his older material. For those that haven't had the time to do the same Gibbs, DJ Skee and The Smoking Section have hooked up to bring you The Labels Tryin' To Kill Me...some what of Best Of and compilation of some of his older songs and more recent ones.
Don't be alarmed by the 80 song tracklisting. Most of it is just verses, however there are some new and whole songs on there. They left off my favorite joints "Doin Dumb Shit" and "The Girls Love It" but this still seems to be a pretty solid project.
There's probably a song or two on here that you've already heard and never realized...like his guest verse on "The True" which appeared on The Knux' Remind Me In 3 Days... album last year. Cover and tracklisting after the jump...

Big Stack$$$$ is apparently the hottest thing out of Chattanooga, TN since I-75. I've listened to a couple songs...yeah, aight. But yeah, this mixtape cover showed up in my inbox today. I saw it a few weeks ago on one of the blogs I frequent but chose not to say anything about it.
Ya'll know how I do, if stumble across something that I don't like, I don't go out of my way to say anything bad about it, rather I find something that I do like and share it with ya'll. But I'll be dammned if I couldn't help myself with this one.
Driving Miss Daisy shawty? Really? Is this supposed to a metaphor for keeping the "white girl" in back the ride? Well, as I typed that I listened to the intro/title track...and yes, that's exactly what its supposed to mean. SMDH.
If you're interested in what the music sounds like...its that typical D-boy trap shit. Just talking on beat, no actual rapping or flowing involved.
This is the cruelest joke in the history of television. Steven Seagal shawty? Really brah? This how you know it doesn't pay to be a criminal anymore. They're making your getting caught sheer entertainment. Its one thing to broadcast survallience videos of The World Dumbest Criminals...its another to run up on folks with the guy from Above the Law.
I swear, folks on this show are going to have one of two reactions. They either gonna think they are being Punk'd...or they think they are about to see a slow death because of scenes like this:
And really what kind of people are they going to be pullig over? From the previews it looks like they damn near pulling over dudes for parking tickets and yelling at their wife too loud. These dudes don't look like mobsters or nunchuck-wielding goons. And he teaching cops yet another way to f*ck somebody up on these streets...this is overkill shawty.
Plus, I'm curious to see what Seagal is even able to do anymore. I interviewed him once a few years ago and he looked very out of shape. Plus, in his last couple of movies he looked like a damn penguin the way he was flapping and flailing his arms around. But hell, anybody can be deadly with a weapon I guess.
But yeah, the show debuts on Wednesday on A&E. I really feel sorry for the dudes that are about to get jammed up on this show.
This past Friday, while most of Atlanta was sleeping off the itis from Thanksgiving leftovers, it was jumping at The Gallery at King Plow.
Just judging from the names on the bill, it wasn't a question of IF the show was gonna be dope...it was WHO was gonna be the dopest...
Wil May was the nights opening act. Wil May is a pretty solid entertainer, but you'd have to know his songs or be around people that know his songs to really enjoy it. Some but not all of the people in the crowd knew his songs, but...this crowd was mostly comprised of our White brothers and sisters and you already know that Alcohol + White folks + loud music = Screaming for no damn reason. So needless to say, Wil May got some love from the crowd. I am kinda dissapointed he didn't do his guaranteed party-rocker "Get Up Early" though.
Prynce was the second opening act and he was pretty solid as well. He did songs from his latest mixtape What Da DEC Been Missing Vol.2 but the only song he did from Vol.1 was "Sweet Georgia" which the crowd was very receptive to. He killed it when he did "Studder" though, that must mean people are coming to the site more often.
As usual Yelawolf killed it. He was the only performer of the night to have a live band so of course that amplified his set.

He did songs from off his Arena Rap and upcoming Trunk Muzik projects including "Pop The Trunk" and new fan favorites "I Wish" feat. Raekwon and "F.U." He also allowed this random white dude on stage to scream "F*** YOU!" at the top his lungs. 'Wolf later said he did someone a favor because by doing that he prevented an office shooting next week.
As usual a few folks left after Yelawolf performed but many still stuck around for Clipse. I've seen Clipse a few times now and their show is always pretty good. However, its not for those that like nostalgia. Being the "trendsetters" they are, they mainly do their most current songs with stops on memory lane coming few and far between. Of course they did "Grindin" and "What Happened To That Boy"...but most of this show was songs from Hell Hath No Fury, We Got It For Cheap pt. 3, the Play Cloths mixtape and what ever has leaked from Til The Casket Drops.
Play Cloths is fresh as hell by the way. I don't think I've seen a piece I haven't liked yet. 'Bout time a rapper(s) who actually knows how to dress a little came out with a line that people will actually wear on some everyday shit.
Last but not least Big Boi went on and killed it as usual. I didn't get good positioning for the Big Boi set so I didn't get as many pictures. But shied, if you come to this blog often you've seen plenty of Big Boi concert pics by now.

Overall the show was very good. The venue was pretty dope too and look forward to seeing more shows there. Shouts out to the Gallery Group for putting on a cool show. The sound stage was pretty impeccable.
My only gripe about the show is that it started 2 hours late, hoping more people would come in. Good thing I don't have a wife and kids at home, because I probably would have left.
Anyways, you can peep the rest of the pics in the gallery below. Tell me what you think of the pics.
