Jay-z Peforms D.O.A. @ Hot97 Summer Jam

8 06 2009


As usual New York’s Hot97 maintains it’s reputation for having surprises at its annual Summer Jam concert. This year Jay hit up Summer Jam to perform “Death of Autotune” that has the internet going nuts. Alongside Jay is Young Jeezy and ironically, T-Pain who can easily be mistaken on Hov’s anti-auto-tune track. Prior to performing his latest track he performed his verse for the remix of Jeezy’s “Put On”.

New-Albums-2
During the first half of the year we heard albums from names like Eminem, Busta Rhymes, Rick Ross, Method Man & Redman, and more. While some of those were the big name releases of ’09, hip hop fans are wondering what’s around the corner this year for hip hop. SpazAppeal’s got the word on other releases that are slated to drop this year.

Dope or Nope 6/5 – Death of Autotune! (Updated w/ CDQ)

5 06 2009

Jay-Z – Death of Autotune (CDQ)
jay-z
The highly anticipated (as of today) street single from Hov is here! The track is titled “D.O.A. (Death of Autotune)” putting an end to the excessive use of the autotune in hip hop. Ironically the track was produced by Kanye West, who made a complete autotuned album, and No I.D.. Jay also shouts out Wayne who uses the autotune heavily. This is a dope way to kick off Blueprint 3 dropping this September 11th!

Takin’ Em Back – 6/5

5 06 2009

Kurupt – We Can Freak It

Vodpod videos no longer available.

All this week I’ve been bumping the new BlaKQout album by Quik & Kurupt and it’s a banger. The album is filled with that West Coast vibe that’s been missing from hip hop over the past few years. That brings us to our throwback for the day, Kurupt’s “We Can Freak It”. This joint still bangs till this day and I’m loving the smooth BattleCat production. Be sure to cop that BlaKQout album dropping this Tuesday!

Seeing is Believing 6/2 – Spaceship

2 06 2009

Kanye West feat. Consequence & GLC – Spaceship
Vodpod videos no longer available.


I already know what you’re thinkin’, wasn’t this on Ye’s first album? Indeed it was and the video has a very late release yet it’s still much appreciated. Spaceship stands the test of time being today’s new video though the song is over five years old.
GLC, who does the songs second verse, made a good point that the song may be more relevant today with our current economical state. Whatever job you’ve worked at in the past you will definitely relate to this joint which is why this is one of my favorite Kanye tracks ever. This video is dope!





Girls, Girls, Girls – Chick of the Week 6/1: Nicki Minaj

1 06 2009

Nicki Minaj 1

The hip hop music genre continues to become more male dominant with the quantity of female mc’s decreasing. Not many mainstream female rappers are in the limelight; there’s Lil’ Kim, Trina, Missy, Eve, and others. There there’s Nicki Minaj, this week’s Chick of The Week. Young Money rapper/singer Nicki Minaj gets this week’s spot being the sexiest female artist out at the moment, possessing a sexual image similar to Lil’ Kim and Foxy back in the 90’s. Nicki Minaj hailing from Jamaica, New York and recently dropped her mixtape Beam Me Up Scotty. She’s currently unsigned but is generating a buzz based off her Wayne affiliation and sex appeal.
