Moonie (of L.E.P.) + Ray J’s “Hood Girl” Premieres on 106 & Park Friday

| May 24, 2010 | 5 Comments

With “Chicago Nz” currently in rotation on MTV Jams and fresh off their MTV Mixtape Daily feature, L.E.P. is headed to BET for the premiere of Moonie’s “Hood Girl” video featuring reality king Ray J.

I’ve seen the clip and it’s ready made for TV and ready for the world.  Super professional and clean.  The Bogus Boys and Infared Music are showing no signs of slowing up in 2010.

Friday is the day, so tune in, set that DVR and prepare for the Chi-Town takeover.

Video: Chip Tha Ripper Talks ‘Gift Raps’ With Chuck Inglish

| May 24, 2010 | 7 Comments

You can now officially dead any speculation; the Chuck & Chip collaboration project Gift Raps is happening.   And it will be coming out sooner than you think.

Last week, Chuck tweeted that he and Chip had recorded the whole album in a 6 day span, and it sounded like “the future coming out of the trunk”.  After Chuck’s claim, I was curious to hear what they’d created, because when Chuck makes statements such as these, he backs it up in spades.   Dead serious.

Mr. Inglish and Kev from SLAB ENT (the company that handles all of Chip’s biz) insisted that I drop by The Blender (their Chicago recording heaquarters and homebase of the Blended Babies) to hear the goods, so of course I obliged.

It’s mean, man.  It’s mean and vicious.

Mikk and Paypa (from the Project Mayhem crew) are neighborhood vigilantes in this clip.  Somebody has to do the dirty work, and Mikk and Pay are more than willing to roll their sleeves up and get down to business.
