T.G.I.F. -Edition 1

Every friday from now on look out for T.G.I.F. blogs.

First, The Pittsburgh Penguins are starting off playing good hockey right now. Second in the division behind the Rangers. On Tuesday, The Pens came back from down 3 goals to 6 against the Red Wings And won in OT 7-6. This was a big game since the Red Wings bullied us in the playoffs last season and we may see them again there this year. Jordan Staal played 3 star hockey scored a Hat Trick in this game. Then Thursday beating our PA rival the Flyers 5-4 in OT. Although the pens did up a 3 goal lead Dany Sabourin had one of the best stick saves i've ever seen in my life! Sportscenter top 10 play material....Keep it up Pens! 
Peep:



So i'm the grocery store earlier this week...standing in the check out line and i see this.....

So my first thought is who is B.o.B? 

Then I flip and see this...

And i think ......Mickey Factz? Really?

Then i flip again....

My face was similar to that of Ace Hood's as i thought....Ace Hood?

Someone is missing I thought....

Wale- I've been a fan of, his flow is hot and he can ride beats with the best of them. A mixtape about nothing....could be put on a top mixtape of the year list....and his song Artistic Integrity is one of my favorite songs right now.... It upsets me that Wale doesn't get more love in DC...he deserves it.... He belongs on here.

Charles Hamilton- I have his last 5 mixtapes... i'm becoming a fan....the first song on all his mixtapes always hit hard....and i appreciate that. His production is getting sicker tho....the most creative beat i heard in a while goes to Charles....sampling the windows sign out sounds on "Windows Media Player"  peep that... on Death of the Mixtape Rapper.....He belongs....

Asher Roth?- I have heard of recently but haven't heard any of his music. So i did some research....and listened to a portion of his gangsta grillz.....greenhouse effect aka the greatest mixtape ever.....He did his thing on certain beats.....Roth is referred to as a gimmicky rapper by some. He does sound just like eminem. I'ma give dude a chance...lets see whats up.

B.o.B- i haven't listened to yet... maybe later...i dunno

Cory Gunz- We all know Cory Gunz is the future....i don't need to speak that much more on it..

Blu- So low key but hes the truth. His album below the heavens was def on my top album of 07 list....so it was on many other hip hop heads. Give Blu a listen....He belongs...

Mickey Factz- i heard dude freestyle before and i wasn't impressed....But i listened to Good Money...and my mind changed a little. We'll see whatelse comes from this dude. He belongs?

Ace Hood- Cash Flow was a tough song......i still play it and he did hold is own on that freestyle during the BET Hip Hop awards......we gonna see about homie real soon....

Curren$y-  Tha Hot Spitta....my favorite on this list. i've been listenin to spitta for a minute. I have all his mixtapes from Independence Day to Fin.... Higher than 30,000...big fan of which opens with Marvin Gaye's After the dance....also heard on American Pimp.... Curren$y rips all types of beats from Dr. Dre- Still Dre to  The Roots- Next Movement....can't wait for the album. I just hope it has good production.

Kid Cudi- I heard day n nite this summer and i've been a fan since.....i tell all to listen to cudi....a kid named cudi is one of my fav mixtapes right now n of the year. Man on the moon is one of my anthems....

But who is missing you ask?.....I would say Wiz Khalifa....this may be a Pittsburgh Bias..but i believe Wiz belongs on this list...hes been doing it for about 5 years and is getting buzz larger than some artist included on this list. Once again, Pittsburgh is an underdog. Maybe 2010?

So one of the Top 10 freshman.....tried to step to a Soph/ Junior in the game and he got put in his place... Charles......You held ur own....but Joe came wit it.... peep 

PART 2

Now You Be the Judge....I think Joe got it.. there is a part 3 where Charles tries to come back......No coming back from that.

Speaking of Joe....U may have heard about the hip-hop super group that was formed...

Slaughter House.....featuring Joe Budden, Royce Da 5'9", Joell Ortiz & Crooked I

thats a very strong 4 and on the first two songs i've heard. No one let down....

Slaughter House- Onslaughter...

for you dumbies....first is Royce

second is Joe Budden

third is Crooked I

last is Joell Ortiz 

My list goes:

Royce/ Joell - Joell may have edged Royce out slighty

Crooked I

Budden

Slaughter House- Slaughter House

Order: 1. Ortiz

2. Crooked

3. Royce

4. Budden

My Slaughter Order goes:

1. Royce

2. Budden

3. Ortiz

4. Crooked

Either way it goes...this is a super group. I hope they can drop an album.

Thank God Its Friday!!

Have a Nice Weekend
