We Are Lasers

After almost two years and protest by fans of Lupe Fiasco they finally got the album they fought for Lasers. For those that dont know Lasers was suppose to drop in late 2009 but the label refused to release the album until Lupe signed a 360 deal but he refused. After the the fans signed petitions and protested outside of Atlantic Records, the record company finally folded, and gave the album an release date. Lasers stands Love Always Shines Everytime, Remember 2 Smile. The music on this album is dope but at times you can see where label had its influence but the songs are still dope. The production on the album is great and the lyrics are on point. If people sit and listen to this album for what it is and stop looking for another Food and Liquor  they would realize it's a dope ass album period, talent always shines through. Now the dope cuts from this album are  Shinning Down, Letting Go, Beautiful Lasers and a lot more tracks that you can chill out to. So go out and buy this and support good music. 

Juice

This weeks hot mixtape release was by Juice with American Me 2 : The Progression. If you dont know Juice is protégé of The Game. Unlike Game Juice is coming out of Arizona with his. With a similar flow as The Game and similar lyrical approach, I was interested to see if he would show growth with this mixtape and I have to give him credit. He was able to stop the name dropping raps and give for the most part dope ass lyrics with dope production behind it. Juice was able to prove he more than just Game's  protégé but his own artist. Some the dope cuts on the mixtape are: My Open Letter, Born 2 Die, Do Right By Me, and alot more so check it out.

Marsha Marsha Marsha

The wait is finally over, many fans of Marsha Ambrosius have begging for her to drop an album. If didn't you know Marsha Ambrosius started out in the group Floetry but after three albums the duo parted ways. Marsha delivered with Late Nights & Early Mornings proving an artist can still be an artist in today's music industry. The writing is spectacular on the album and her voice is one in a kind. The production on Late Nights & Early Mornings fit her voice perfectly and sonic wise is beautiful. Marsha gave her fans an album that they can listen to from beginning to end and proved that you don't have to sell your artistic integrity to a record label. The highlights on Late Nights & Early Mornings are : Late Nights & Earl Morning a sensual song that you can throw on when man/woman comes over, Far Away this is a beautiful song that touches on suicide, and of course Hope She Cheats On You a song that I'm most of ladies can relate to. This is a great album and suggest you go pick it up and get some real music in your life.

The Greatest Story Never Told

Now I'll be the first to admit Im not the biggest Saigon fan but I got to give credit when its due. It took forever for The Greatest Story Never Told to come out, it took almost as long as it's taking for Dre to drop Detox if not longer. Through the label changes and other BS Im surprised Saigon was able to drop such a great album. Granted this isn't his album release it is his first studio release. The production on this album is immaculate and thats mainly because Just Blaze produce most the album. Far as lyrical content bar for bar Saigon didn't have a problem holding it down. Some songs you should check out are Come On Baby, Enemies, Friends, Bring Me Down and a lot more. Saigon delivered on this his first studio album, so go out and support the homie. 

Equestrian Dro

This mixtape was the hot release this week, Dro comes through with his unique flow and style. Equestrian Dro is full of bangers and proves Dro can certainly hold his own without TIP. He clearly proved he can carry the Grand Hustle flag while the King is in the pen. Most of the mixtape uses original production and has some production that you probably heard before. The tracks that stood out are, Freeze Me (remix), Polo Down, Coo, and he even made Diamond's "Lotta Money" worth listening to. Again this mixtape is a banger Dro put in that work, so check it out and see for yourself.

Road To The High Life

The wait is finally over the voice behind some of Joe Budden's hottest singles like Stuck in the Moment, All of Me and many more has dropped some material. Emanny's fans have been waiting for him drop something for along time now he proves it was well worth the wait. His talent shines throughout  the whole mixtape with his song writing and strong voice. So I suggest you if you got your girl coming over you put on Get You Home or Blow Your Mind. Emanny even sends a response to Marsha Ambrosius Hope She Cheats On You with his own version that you can bump fellas. There are alot more dope tracks on this mixtape so give this joint some spins.

EYES of VERITAS

If you havent heard of Gilbere Forte I suggest you get real familiar with the homie. Gilbere Forte follows up 87 Dreams with Eyes of Veritas and doesnt disappoint. He was born in Michigan and is based in Philly so has the best of two cities in him. His style is a mix between Kanye West and Kid Cudi very laid back but lyrical as fuck. All the production on this mixtape are all original so it plays like an album. Gilbere will soon be force in the game to be reckoned with, dude has the ability to take over if giving a chance. The tracks you should check out are The Eyes, Veritas, Born in 87, Lights On, The Exports, and there so many dope tracks so get familiar NOW.
