Double F-Perfect Timing Click To Download

London has yet to have a really big break out Hip Hop artist that is embraced by the United States. Of Course they have S.A.S and Dizzy Rascle but America has never fully embraced them to any degree. S.A.S gets some dipset love and some mixtape slots but not real success over here. Word on the streets of London and the Underground scene is that the new artist Double F is the chosen one to break out of London and represent over here in the land of Opportunity. Many American mixtape DJs are looking for his tracks and he is said to start releasing them to the masses. He sounds like a American artist and is said to be able to flow faster than twista on some tracks. I like his sound and flow. I will post more tracks as they become available to me

Mary J Blige loves Led Zeppelin

Mary J. Blige speaks On Her ‘Crazy’ Led Zeppelin Covers

‘I’ve listened to their music since I was a child,’ says the R&B diva, who recorded ‘Stairway to Heaven’ and ‘Whole Lotta Love.’

You wouldn’t peg Mary J Blige as the black-light-and-tapestry sort, but, as has become readily apparent in recent weeks, she absolutely loves Led Zeppelin.

In early February, reports began circulating that Blige had re-recorded Zeppelin’s classic “Stairway to Heaven,” working with Travis Barker, “American Idol” judge Randy Jackson and guitarist Steve Vai on the track, which is slated to appear on the international reissue of her Stronger With Each Tear album, due Monday.

But after she had recorded “Stairway,” Blige continued to get the Led out, covering another Zeppelin classic — the thunderous “Whole Lotta Love” — for the album too. And when MTV News caught up with her on the Black Women in Hollywood red carpet, she told us all about channeling her inner Robert Plant for the tracks, a process that came much easier than you’d probably imagine.

“I did Led Zeppelin’s ‘Stairway to Heaven’ and ‘Whole Lotta Love’ — it’s crazy,” she said. “I am a Led Zeppelin fan. I’m not going to say I’ve been to their concerts, but I’ve listened to their music since I was a child, and it’s always moved me, especially ‘Stairway to Heaven,’ and ‘Whole Lotta Love’ is just fun.”

Blige also said she recorded another new song — a “club record” called “I Can’t Wait” — for the re-release. And while it’s only slated to hit shelves outside the U.S., she hopes her fans will get a chance to hear all the new songs pretty soon.

“I want y’all to hear it,” she laughed.

T.I.’s New Clothing Line causes drama in Newark

T.I.’s clothing line AKOO JEANS is stirring up a lot of Controversy. This billboard is in the middle of one of Newark, New Jersey’s busiest intersections. The people of New Jersey thinks the advertisement is sending a inappropriate message to its younger citizens.

The billboard features a woman kneeling in from on a man with his pants unbuckled. Sex sells has always been the way to go if you are in the clothing business. Me personally Im sick of every other rapper thinking they are a fashion designer. I never ever wear clothes made by some rappers so called clothing line. That is something for the groupies and middle school kids. How many clothing lines do we need ? I can’t hate the hustle, get money any way you can. T.I has to build his bankroll back up after getting the lightest sentence in Hip Hop history for cooperating with authorities.
