Pic: YP, Freddie Gibbs & Sly Polaroid In The Studio
YP’s been working pretty hard on the left coast and last night was no different. Freddie Gibbs and Sly Polaroid joined YP in the studio and knocked out a new joint. G.O.O.D. Music’s own Malik Yusef also stopped by, but no word on if he’s featured on the track too. I’ve been hearing good things…
Video: The Cool Kids – Rush Hour Traffic [Behind The Scenes]
A while back, Chuck and Sir Michael shot the video for their new single “Rush Hour Traffic” here in the Chi. Follow the two as they make their way around the city before the shoot. Look for the finished product to impact real soon and grab When Fish Ride Bicycles from iTunes if you haven’t…
Video: GLC – Mack On Mack Strong
Did I see a Tator Chip mask creep through in the background? I believe I did. It feels good to have your mackin embraced on such a Mack-nificent level. As the beautiful ladies put their Mack on the Ism simply decides to Mack strong. Terrence Jones supplies the visual for this Keezo Kane produced joint…

Directed by Chella H & Raphah Anderson This record is picking up serious steam on both WGCI and Power, and now we finally have the vivid imagery and eye candy to go along with it. Watch Chella and her femme fatales poke it out in the new clip she co-directed. The track is now available…
Video: J. Hollins f/ Skooda Chose & Anton Genius – You’re My Girl (Remix)
This. Is. The. Remix. Remix videos featuring a clean white backdrop, contrasting black outfits, and hot girls? Yep, those always work.
Video: Rashid Hadee – POV
Here we find Hadee macking a chick down on the elevated train. If only the CTA was always this much fun — I’m usually stuck next two swashbuckling bums, duking it out with squeegees. Off Hadee’s new album, Aural Sex: The Search For Pinky Tuscadero, which is well worth your time.
Video: Johnny P – Damn
Chicago’s G.O.A.T. hip-hop hookman returns with a new record entitled “Damn.” Johnny doesn’t give one, get it? Not sure what project this is to land on, but it was produced by Multiman.
Video: Chief Keef “3Hunna” Live @ Congress Theater
Video by Who’s Terrell Keef is barely old enough to drive, and he’s already making appearances at Rick Ross shows, and packing the Congress Theater for events of his own. A sharp contrast to what I was doing at that age — which mainly consisted of watching Rap City and trying to illegally purchase cigarettes….
Mixtape: Paypa (of Project Mayhem) – No Room In The Limo
Presented by Sean Mac Undoubtedly my favorite title/phrase of 2012 — I believe it was made popular by the late great DARE. Next time you’re in a limo (prom!), be sure to muster this one out. No tracklist for now, but it’s Mayhem-related, so trust that it’s dope.
