JJ Beat

*So apparently, this gem that Premo had crafted was specifically made for Yeezy (and possibly My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy). But was unfortunantely turned down by Mr. West . The beat also known as the JJ (Jermaine Jackson) Beat was also turned down by southern rapper Bun B... Now this is definitely the type of music that I expected to see on Kanye's album, and I think it is a shame that it has been overlooked. But I can definitely see some other artists rocking over this such as: Nas, Jay-Z, Jay Electronica, who doesn't sound good with Premo on the boards haha!

Who do ya'll think would fit this joint perfectely??

*&& Speaking of MBDTF... here goes a song that was also cut from the album. GOOD grief..

And the next 5 MICS goes to....

-So its been about 5 years since the last time the prestigious 5 Mic review was given by The Source, the last one being given to Lil Kim's The Naked Truth (making her the first Female' MC to recieve the award)...As you can see by the nominees above, the competition looked pretty solid, but The Source has finally crowned it's next 5 Mic album, and that is Bun B's latest solo album, Trill O.G.. | To tell you the truth I'm not mad at all by their decision, I bought Bun's Last two albums and loved them..And I Recently took a Listen to his Latest effort, Trill O.G., and by far was the best of his solo career and is somewhat worthy of being in the ranks such as Illimatic & The Blueprint..I mean if anything I feel that this guy deserves to have a 5 Mic rating just as much as anybody else. Years of killing it, showes that it was bound to happen, Congradualtions. But still I feel that they still did not give The Roots' How I Got Over & Eminem's Recovery the proper credit that they deserve (5 Mics!!!)....In case you are confused about the 5 Mic rating system READ HERE.
