Game ft. 2 Chainz and Rick Ross – Ali Bomaye

Game is back, and I have always been torn about him.  Obviously was a big fan around the G-Unit days, I still don’t know why I don’t hear “Hate It or Love It,” or ” This Is How We Do,” more often.  Lately he has been a little crazy dissing everyone from Jay-Z and beating up other rappers on YouTube.  When the man puts a little focus on music he can still make hits.  Jesus Piece kind of came out of nowhere.  I heard “Celebration,” and kinda was bored with it, but after listening to the album I am impressed.  “Ali Bomaye,” “Church,” and using D’Angelo’s legendary song “Lady,” on “All That.”  This guy has brought the heat once again.  “Ali Bomaye,” brings the best out of all three of these rappers.  Which was much-needed, as Ross seems to be making records that sound all alike and Chainz is hit or miss with his appearances.  They seem energetic and work well of each other.  Check it out and pick up his album just in time for Christmas.

Big Boi ft. Kid Cudi – She Hates Me

The next single off Big Boi’s upcoming album Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumors, “She Hates Me,” does not disappoint.  Daddy Fat Sacks is back and again gives us a great album, full of organic guest apperances and surprising production from AOS favorites, Phantogram.  This track combines Mr. Rager with Billy Ocean talking about getting a girl to love them.  Big is still cooler than a polar bear’s toe nails on this one.  Pick up the album next week.

Ambassadors – Unconsolable

Hailing from Ithaca, that’s right Ithaca, the Ambassadors bring a fresh sound and a catchy song with “Unconsolable.”  Below is the live version and studio version.  These guys have amazing talent and hopefully will start getting some airplay.  Recently they are on the soundtrack to EA’ Need For Speed: Most Wanted, so hopefully they get the exposure they deserve.

UGK & OutKast- Int’l Players Anthem (Woody’s Produce Remix)

California native, Woody’s Produce, gives us a fresh take on some classics featuring rap’s greatest duo, Outkast.  Here he takes UGK’s hit “International Players Anthem,” and adds some electric synths and acoustic guitar, making it a completely different sounding song.  Will we ever see another Outkast album, who knows, Big Boi is doing big things on his own, but all these Andre 3000 features are starting to annoy me.  Just get the damn thing done already.

Kid Cudi – Just What I Am

Scott Mescudi is back with King Chip with new material off his upcoming album.  Cudi handles the directing on this one and gives a nice party video, red solo cups and everything.  His sing/rap style still works, I also recommend checking out his track on Cruel Summer, “Creepers.”
