Latest Ess Villa Music Video with the late Baatin (R.I.P).

the PSPgo... the UMDless version of the playstation portable will be available october 1st, 2009. it looks dope, and i like the idea that it does away with the battery draining UMD drive. it will focus on digital downloads available for purchase on the playstation network instead of the 1.8gb universal media discs.

the 16gb of internal flash memory should be enough to hold at least 8 full psp games. it also comes with a slot for an m2 card which can double the memory (the largest m2 card as of now is 16gb).

the only bad part is... the PSPgo launches at $250... for those of you that own a psp 3000 (or an earlier model) like myself, you can easily fit 32gb of memory into it using two 16gb micro's and an adapter for about $100.

the PSPgo is sexy with its sliding screen and all, but i think i'll wait for a price drop. what about you?

support good music and make sure you cop that slaughterhouse album today if anything. alongside Slaughterhouse dropping, Escape Route makes its debut today.

slaughterhouse is the hip-hop supergroup consisting of royce da 5'9", joe budden, joell ortiz & crooked i. the album is crazy. trust me. it's a must have for any hip hop fan. i gotta say, joell goes in throughout the whole album. i have a new respect for him.

escape route is an EP budden is releasing serving as a prelude to his upcoming album The Great Escape. support @mousebudden . he had a bad week via raekwon.

purchase Slaughterhouse on itunes.
purchase Escape Route on amalgamdigital.com.

kinda late... its been a month since he dropped the vid on his youtube, but dope video nonetheless. dwele is the truth... if you don't have any of his albums, definitely check out his last album... Sketches of a Man available now on itunes.

this is one of the smoothest songs on the album... the song at the end is an interlude "You Won't Be Lonely"

tell us what you think, and follow good music on twitter @therealdwele

Aight, this is the newest leak from The Vigil. Track is Raw. Crazy. Stupid. Dope. Insert any other synonyms imaginable. Listen and share your thoughts.

Oh yea...look out for Grafh's Bring the Goons mixtape coming out soon.

this dude is basically a rapper from the same town as me that i hold in high regard. i got his first album Redemption from his cousin when i was in 6th grade and i've been a fan ever since. he goes in... classic new york rap. this is one of my favorite songs by him, along with "Maintain, Pt. II" & "Now."

not only is this just a dope track on his part, but it's produced by nicolay of the foreign exchange... one of my favorite producers.

buy his latest album, The Anomaly off of itunes.
check him out at www.myspace.com/kaleber and
follow him on twitter at www.twitter.com/kaleber.

dilla.

RIP Baatin. 1974 - July 31st, 2009

"baatin... is the one who's in the tree of life.
hold tight, dont ever give up in the fight
grace... can only come into the sight
soul power. it ignites like the sun
sv dominates the industry for fun."
-baatin; excerpt from "untitled/fantastic"


RIP baatin & j dilla. slum village lives on.
