"Chill or get laid out."

50 Cent promised new material on the 10th anniversary of Get Rich Or Die Tryin.  50 says he was going for the same feeling of his classic debut.  He says about the new record:

"I wrote the song so everytime i hear it it reminds me of it. I wrote it the day before yesterday shot yesterday it took me longer to find the beat than to actually write it. I didnt shoot the 3rd verse for you to focus on the lyrics. no GIRLS, no JEWELRY, RAW ENERGY , its just me check it out 10 years, lets see if I still got it. I’m gonna write a song to night. Ill put it out tomorrow. SMSaudio.

Watch it below. JR Bang says this is the 50 he knows and loves.

[RH Premiere] Seven1: "Black Boy Lost (Can't Save Em)"

black boy lost

Seven1 made a really important record over the summer by the name of "Death of Drillin'".  The record examined Chicago's Hip Hop scene, and the context in which the music was being made.  It caused some people to get upset, and others to pump their fists in support.  Since then, Seven has been fairly quiet and released just a few records.  On Monday, the southside emcee will release a new EP, Forever Dies Today.  This morning we are premiering Seven1's "Black Boy Lost (Can't Save Em)", which is on the new project and takes another look at the flashing lights of the music game, and the problems when it overshadows reality.  Listen and download it below.
