Further still that you are probably thoroughly pissed that you had to got back to work today. Its all good, I gotchu fam! Music to kick back to plus a not spot Im callin "The Drop" Every week from here on out I'm throwin out sumthin from kats I have the good blessing of knowing personally or have met on my journey through this playlist called life. Maybe even a few submissions from others.  Fux wit it ya'll! Have a great week!

The Drop

DaGreatBambino

This weeks selections!

Jet Life- Jet World Order 2

Ahhhh the Jets these kats have been around for a good while. They deliver a laid back feel of hip hop. I honestly cant think of a track that got me extra hype that they put out but that really doesnt matter when it good vibes all through out the catalog. It is mostly Skydiver and Trademark on this one but of course Curren$y comes through and blesses a couple tracks. I really like the track above on the best on the whole album but its also one of the shortest songs on the album. Regardless, if you burn this is a good album to put one in the air to and sit back and chill

Joe Budden- A Loose Quarter

This one was on some hardcore r&b shit. The tempo was essentially something that you'd hear from a dope ass R&B album but it got Joe spittin on it. I Still dig it though cause Budden lyrically is nice and he the artist Emanny that is basically singing every hook is pretty good too. If you have a house divided where one of you rarely listens to hip hop and the other rarely listens r&b this one will be a decent compromise. Ok, mostly in the favor of the hip hop head but as an R&B fan you wont hate it. 

Fabolous- Soul Tape 2

I Love how he used the Exhibit A beat on the first track. Obviously not as great the original but still he snapped on it. I've never been a die hard Fabo fan but I do love his lyricism. Every time I hear him I'm like, "ha,.. I see you Fab"  The whole mixtape is laid back. This is really my whole type of vibe so I felt this one far reals. 

Styles P- The Worlds most Hardest MC

This one is a joint I slept on last week. I fux wit it so much I had to throw it up for this week! It really on that good 'ol classic hip hop shit. That good shit you dont get that often these days. If I could say there was a draw back the only thing be that there are no Jada-kiss features. Its kinda the same vibe you get with a Big Boi missing 3000 feel. You accept it as still fyre but its always great to hear them together. Still this is perfect for a  chillin out  on good afternoon with that Black Ops 2.

BamaLoveSoul.com Presents: Phonte- Never at A Loss For Words Pt.1 

So for this jawn you're actually in luck for 2 reasons... First you can hear the WHOLE thing right here on the  link above. Secondly, you can also download it on the link above because its free. The one draw back is that its really just one long ass song but if you fux with Phnote that shouldnt even matter to yo extra picky ass! If you've never messed wit dude it about time you start. The link above is a great into to his great singing ability and spectacular flow. Any way its all that dopeness and a bag cookies. (its sweeter than some damn chips). 



Alicia Keys- Girl On Fire

I almost passed on this one till I heard the song above. Fire we Make.. the shit is just stoopid dope to me. After a couple more spins this one was aight to me.It wasn't a terrible album but it did seem to lack a certain flare sensation that I normally get from her albums. With a title like Girl on Fire I thought it would be just that, "fire". But with the actual track Girl On Fire being played in the background of  every 3rd commercial since the Olympics  I was extra through with that.track. Then with adding (she whose name shall never be mentioned on this blog) the song caught a skip with the strength of 5 bus driver punches. Other than that the album was ...meh.....

Till next week!!
