What are your influences?
When I grew up, there was a hippie thing going on. At the same time, L.A. was a magnet for people who wanted to enjoy the weather. Berry Gordy moved Motown here, all the athletes who got money wanted to move here. I was soaking up the hippie, black consciousness, surf-beach aesthetic. My parents weren't artists -- my dad was a construction worker and my mother a manager at AT&T -- but they made things like embroidered denim. My mom had magnetizing water, pyramids, rainbows and neon lights in the house. We had a lot of cats, and owls lived in our palm trees. It was like living in an aviary.

Tell me about Pastelle.
Kanye hired me in July -- we were working together anyway. His eye is very critical. We're trying to come up with something he really digs so we can get the line off the ground.

If you’re still questioning Cudi’s skill at this point, check your sanity then peep out the video above. Cudi recently hit up DJ Reflex & The L.A. Leakers for a short freestyle and it was all filmed for your viewing pleasure. Check it out.

Kid Cudi - @ Dave & Busters w/ Complex

It must be nice to be a rapper. GOOD records’ Kid Cudi gets treated to a day at the arcade fans’ dream world Dave & Busters. However, it wasn’t all fun and games as Complex magazine had an ulterior motive and shot some pictures of Cudi for his latest piece in the periodical. Check out the video above.

Rick Ross - Kiss My Pinky Ring Curly (50 Cent Diss)

Rick Ross and 50 cent seem intent on continuing the beef. Ross took the feud a step further and went to 50’s home turf in Queens New York for his diss song “Kiss My Pinky Ring Curly”. Check out the video above of Ricky taking a tour of 50’s hood. I hope you “swaggaless monkeys” enjoy it.

Kid Cudi ft. Wale - Look Up in Da Stars


Kid Cudi and Wale hook up for a collaborative effort entitled “Look Up In Da Stars”. Anyone who has been keeping up with Hip Hop in the past year or so is excited about the two guaranteed future superstars and like minded MCs hooking up for a track. The beat encompass a synth heavy vibe and a futuristic sound. The track situated below is tagged up by the DJ but it doesn’t even matter. Check it out.

Lil Wayne - February 18th


I’m not sure where this comes from but the track seems like a quick freestyle from Weezy. Keeping in theme with the date related tracks that his Young Money label mate Drake utilized for his song “November 18th”. Wayne’s “February 18th” contains a weird spaced out Electronic rhythm that the MC rides. I’m guessing he completed this joint today judging from the song title.

Lil Wayne - February 18th

Rick Ross - What Goes Around Comes Around


Just when you thought this beef was dying down, Ricky jump starts it with a video touring 50s hood yesterday and a new track today “What Goes Around Comes Around”. This one is over a pretty menacing track and has the boss spitting murderous lines at his foe. Also, there’s a short apperance from 50’s mortal enemy Bang Em Smurf. Check out the track below you “swaggaless monkeys”. Please expect that phrase every time there’s a Ross diss song.

CurT@!n$ - Dope Boy C For President Episode II:Black Folks


Hyphenated Life Presents CurT@!n$: Dope Boy C For President Episode II:Black Folks from J. Poakwa The Writer on Vimeo.

The thing that I enjoyed most about Curtain’s “Black Folks” track is that he talked to us rather then at us, which is rare in socially conscious songs nowadays. Check out the description of the above video:

In episode 2 of “Dope For President”, CurT@!n$ breaks down some lyrics to “Black Folks”, talks rappers responsibility, and why not setting an example to kids is detrimental to the future.

Asher Roth x J Cardim x Chesney Snow - I Love College (Remix)

My prediction is by the Summer we’ll have about 30 remixes of this joint and the track will become an anthem for all frat boys and old aging party girls who wished they were still in college. Check out the description of the remix below:

Asher Roth’s lead single got the remix treatment from Loud.com Finalist Producer Winner J Cardim and beatboxer Chesney Snow. Check out this exclusive remix for the video featuring the hottest upcoming beatmaker in the industry and one of the most dynamic beatboxer’s around
