Yep! (c) Boogz Twista & Traxster are back, and if this is any indication of what Category F5 is going to sound like, we’ve got a serious problem on our hands.  I feel like I just stepped out of a smoking DeLorean from 1997.  Twista – “Wetter (Get It Wet Part 2)” (Prod. by The…

What you are seeing for the very first time is the official mascot for Fake Shore Drive, the Chicagorilla.  I do believe I’m the first hip-hop blogger with a mascot, so please be on the lookout for him. What you are hearing is the official first leak from the FSD x Timbuck2 collaboration mixtape, The Chicagorilla…

Another leak from Pugs’ upcoming album, Roof Top. Here’s he hooks up with my favorite member of Brand Nubian (sorry to inform you Grand Puba stans) over a Smriz beat. Pugs Atomz feat. Sadat X – “Wait & See”

Is this even for real?  Dissing Yung Berg is soooo 2008.   If this is his official diss track, you’d think he would’ve had a lot more ether than this.  *ether fail* Cap 1 – “I Am Legend” (Yung Berg Diss)  via Bfochs

Merk Murphy & company are dropping the Dedication 2 Notorious mixtape this Friday, featuring some of your favorite Chi-Town spitters paying homage to Frank White.  The first leak comes from Dave Coresh, not the one from Waco, TX. Dave Coresh – “10 Rap Commandments”

Another night @ Southside. Shouts to R.E.D. for the assist.

Be sure to tune in to BET at 2pm CST tomorrow to catch Count from L.E.P. on their new program The Deal.  He’ll be kicking some bars in the booth with Jim Jones, so don’t miss it.  We definitely need to support our local artists when they get national shine like this. Update:  I just received…

My only problem is that there aren’t enough rappers on this.  Gadzooks! Add 2, Sha Stimuli, Lil Fats, CyMarshall Law, Jusmula, St. Laz & Miz – “Coast 2 Coast (Cypher #1)” (Prod. by Young ASAP)

Hu$tle just hit me with a bundle of new material from the Glacier City camp.  He also spoke of a Lungz x Mick Luter collabo that will be dropping very soon, but this should be more than enough to hold you over until then. Lungz – “YBF” (Prod. by Q Hefna) Soze & Justo –…

This came around earlier this evening, but I was checking out Notorious (yeah, the guy who was spamming came through with some tix. Ha!), so I’m just a couple hours late, but that’s like days in dog internet years. Anyhoo, this is ‘Fest’s rendition of MC Lyte’s classic “Paper Thin”, from his upcoming mixtape, It…
