C.J.'s Album Of The Week



My new album of the week. I'm really really starting to become a huge Charles Hamilton fan. Especially after hearing his single "Barbara Walters". The dude is too real its crazy. He puts himself out there 4real. But 4 my Album of The Week i'm going with his mixtape, well it may be considered an EP which is called "Well Isn't This Awkward". So this whole thing is a storyline right? This whole CD is like a movie. Charles is a homeless musician trying to get his life together, who has paranormal bond with this girl who lives in a penthouse. Mind you they have never met, touched or ne thing. Then one day the owner of the building invites Charles in to play the music for the whole building. And he gets his chance to play for the girl while entertainig everyone else in the building. Its super-hot and a little confusing at first but extremely hot and creative. I suggest everybody check it out..da video below helps explain it..everybody check it out ...Peace

2009s Rookie of The Year


So as yall may know we are from Chicago and big supports of Chicago teams and players. Chicagos own Derrick Rose has made us all proud that he was our number 1 pick to the Chicago Bulls. Hes had an outstanding season and has helped us stun people in 2k9 lol. We all knew he would get rookie of the year and we got our money on him takin Celtics to school in the play offs.


Also we would like to show support to the Sox and The Black Hawks (who r also in a great playoff series them selfs)

Big ups to Derrick Rose hes wearing that #1 for a reason



PEACE

Everybody Needs To Check Out J. Cole..naw like 4real tho


Yoooo, Its ya boi C.J. I'm Sorry I ain't been on here like that. I truly am. I really been under the weather but fuk it I'm back now, thats all that counts.lol. But I'm almost finished with my mixtape The Backup Plan which is always good. The other thing is I got an artist yall really need to check out like ASAP. He goes by the name of J. Cole from North Carolina. I first got on the dude when he was on my mentor Omen's mixtape "Do The Right Thing". You may remember Omen from an earlier blog we did last month. I've been following his career ever since and am hoping to one day collab with him. This dude is lyrical, he has hella "swag" (though I HATE that word now), his flow is crazy, the issues he speaks on everyone can relate too. He is damn near the perfect MC.lol Like 4real though. He is the first person signed to Jay-Z's Roc Nation label. You can download his mixtape "The Come Up" on datpiff.com or listen to him at myspace.com/therapistmusic. I promise this guy has the power to really change hip hop and change the youth 4real. So check him out I promise he's a Beast 4real, I wouldn't lie to you.lol. Like I said I'm tryna collab with the dude sometime in the near future so J. COLE GET @ ME THROUGH OMEN OR SUMTHN OR HIT ME ON MYSPACE NIGGA.lol..But 4real this dude has been on hiphopgame.com as artist of the month and everything. He graduated like top in his class from college or sumthn like that. This nigga got a brain on his shoulders as well as talent and he from the hood. I'm telling yall check the nigga out. Blog about the shit.lol. Ight Peace

Planet B-Boy

So we love all things hip hop and we haven't forgotten about one of hip hop's main parts, dance. This Doc came out last year and the dvd is out now. I caught it on mtv 2 one day and was hooked. o yea these kidz can dance PEACE.

Naga's Album of the week


whats up internet? its been awhile how yall been? that's good (or that's to bad lol) any this album has kind a weird reason for getting picked this week. This weeks CD is Gemstone's TESTIMONY OF GEMSTONES. A good mix tape from one of Chicago's best up and coming artist. Gemstones has kinda ben around for awhile and was on both Lupe CD's. on this mix tape Gem shows off his talents of rapping and singing and he does both great. hes positive like Lupe and speaks to alot of people on every level. hes first Cd Troubles of the World seems to be like trying to reach the end of a never ending hallway cuz we keep hearing about it but it for years but have yet to see any sort of releas for it. So untill we get an album out of him we can just listen to the TOG and dream. As of late thou Gem seems to have switched his genre of music to gospel (yea i kno) but he seems to has the same style . So this CD is the last one before the genre switch. hope u guys check it out PEACE...

C.J.'s Album Of The Week


What's good its ya homie C.J. For my album of the week I had to go with 2pac's Greatest Hits album. I know I'm a day late with this, but I was finishing up some music last night so 4give me world. But I listened to this cd and remembered why Pac was my favorite rapper of all time. When you listen to this man spit its like he becomes your bestfriend. Like I can honestly say that Pac was my bestfriend that I never ever met or came with in 1000 feet of. He really was ahead of his time. The issues and theorys he spoke on then are still current to this day, and will be current 1000 years from now. 2Pac was the best thing to ever happen to music and me as an artist I shouldn't say shit like dat but fuk it. When it's true its true. You feel his pain, his joy, his thoughts, everything. This guy was and is the truth. Everybody must listen to this asap. R.I.P. 2Pac, the greatest rapper of all time. Peace

Kris's album of the week


Yo whats good people? So I'm trying to keep up with the weekly thing which is something I'm finding comes very fast. But none the less I still have an album of the week for you guys. This is one i think is a classic and one of my favorite bands. So with that said I present what i believe to be there 3rd CD My Chemical Romance The Black Parade. its a great powerful CD from the lyrics to the sound. maybe a bit depressing but in an ironic way which some how makes it cheerful and easy to listen to. This CD keeps me sane, it keeps me going, and its one i turn to when i just need to hear some music. Yea its rock and yea there not for everyone but they have a fresh sound and put so much emotion into their lyrics. if i had a top 50 songs at least 6 of these songs would make the list. i guess i cant stress enough just how much i love this CD. i believe the singles off the CD are Teenagers, Welcome to the black parade, Dead, and Famous last words. All worth checking out. Also a GREAT song worth checking out that i believe is on the B side of the single is Kill All Your Friends. so check it out if u get a chance and enjoy. peace

Is T.I. Going Go Get Out Early


What's good world, its your soon to be next favorite artist C.J. I think everybody is aware of the rapper/actor T.I.'s situation with the law. If your unaware and have been living under a rock, he was sentenced to a year and a day for being caught with machine guns and trying to purchase weapons basically. He started his sentence the other day, but everybody has been like "man he going to get out on good behavior, he ain't finna do no time, he too rich". I personally think he is going to serve his assigned sentence. I gained a new level of respect for T.I. over the past couple years (not to say that I didn't respect or like his music before). But I really see his maturity as an artist and a person through his music and his actions and vocabulary. I feel hip hop and music as a whole needs him. But I dunno, this is a good question though. So will T.I. serve his full sentence or will he get out early? What do yall think? Blog about it. Peace

my night out with Meg and Dia


Whats up guys and gals its ya boy Kris and the other day( Monday to be exact) i got to go see one of my favorite bands Meg and Dia. They have been around for a few years now and are about to release there third CD. I would also like to tell you guys that when it comes to music i have a VERY open mind and I am into a lot different things so bare with me on this one. The show was at the House of Blues and security found my damn camera so all i was left with were some damn shitty ass camra phone pics wich i chose not to put up cuz there not that clear. Over all i thought it was a great show for them. There some other bands there too but they were mostly pop rock wich isnt really my thing( Meg and Dia are more alternitive rock) but they wernt bad. I ended up missing out on the cool shit that was going on the side with the bands that had just finished their sets but thats another story im not gonna get into lol. If you guys are intrested in checking out one of my favorite artist then click here http://www.myspace.com/megdia and since I got no good pics from the show i just put up one i got off myspace lol. Peace
