Takin’ Em Back – 12/5

Common – I Used To Love H.E.R.

Like yesterday’s Be blog, I’m posting another entry in honor of the release of Universal Mind Control this Tuesday. Before “The Light”, “The Corner”, or “The People”, Common made one of the best hip hop tracks of all time. “I Used to Love H.E.R.” tells the story of hip hop’s evolution, except Com is referring to hip hop as a girl. Common even references the west coast era of hip hop in this track which sparked the unlikely feud with Ice Cube. This track is purely timeless!

Takin’ Em Back – 11/21

21 11 2008

Notorious BIG feat. Puffy & Ma$e – Mo Money, Mo Problems

I swear this joint brings back memories. This was when Bad Boy reached it’s zenith. It even gave Puff the alias as the “Shiny Suit Man”. Watching the video today it is a little cheesy, but it’s one of the most memorable hip hop videos from the 90’s. Speaking of Puff, he recently gave T-Pain his royalties for the auto-tune, which will be thoroughly used on his next album (sigh). Also, Bad Boy will be dropping the Notorious Soundtrack and movie in January.

Takin’ Em Back – 11/14

Jay-z – Dead Presidents

One of my favorite Jay tracks ever! The rhymes, the beat, and the Nas sampled hook is all classic. I don’t agree with the Jiggaman saying Nas was using his voice wrong cause “The World is Yours” (where Jay got the sample from) is one of the illest hip hop joints.
