Busta Rhymes - Year Of The Dragon [Free Album]


A new Busta Rhymes album for free? I'll take it.

The head of The Conglomerate teamed up with Google Play and his new label YMCMB to release Year Of The Dragon, which features some costly musicians including Trey Songz, Rick Ross, Robin Thicke, Anthony Hamilton, Gucci Mane and of course, Lil Wayne.

Nas - Bye Baby (Video Trailer)


Nas has delivered one of the best albums of the year with Life Is Good, thanks primarily by his openness on records like "Bye Baby." From the looks of this trailer, he's not holding anything back, even carrying Kelis' green wedding dress (which also served as a key prop on the album cover).

Beyoncé - I Was Here [Music Video]


Filmed at the General Assembly at the United Nations, Beyoncé used her amazing vocals for an honorable cause as she performed 4 anthem "I Was Here" to commemorate World Humanitarian Day. Clearly, August 19th has passed, but that doesn't mean you can't use each day to do something good for others. Get inspired HERE!

Trey Songz ft. Young Jeezy & Lil Wayne - Hail Mary [Music Video] (Co-Starring Kevin Hart, Stevie J & Joseline)


The moral of this video is this: Love & Hip Hop ATL Cigarillos is winning. You don't have to watch the show to know that Stevie J's facial expressions and Joseline's inaudible commentary make the show, and it seems Trey Songz took notice. To celebrate yesterday's release of his new album Chapter V, he, Kevin Hart, Young JeezyLil Wayne and some beautiful footballers deliver the hilarious visuals to "Hail Mary."

Mariah Carey ft. Rick Ross & Meek Mill - Triumphant (Get 'Em) [Music Video]


Mariah Carey wasted little time to deliver the visuals to her new Rick Ross and Meek Mill featured single "Triumphant." In this Nick Cannon directed video, Mariah cheers on Milly from Philly as he delivers a 12th round knockout while DJ Khaled and Rozay watch from the crowd. Simple, yet effective.

Lupe Fiasco - Bitch Bad [Music Video]


The song alone is enough to bring powerful imagery to your mind but Lupe Fiasco proves that his job is to empower and challenge hip hop as he narrates the story of "Bitch Bad." I wrote a paper on his track "American Terrorist" back in college, but this record deserves a book.

Food & Liquor 2 is set to hit stores September 25th.

Killer Mike ft. Scar - Untitled [Music Video]


I wasn't sure anything could top the visuals to "Big Beast," but it looks like Killer Mike has done it again. He gives you a history lesson in a matter of minutes with a little help from Scar, El-P and his lovely other half in the music video to the R.A.P. standout "Untitled."


Directed by Benjamin Dickinson

By the way, if you haven't copped R.A.P. Music, what the hell are you waiting for???
