Throwback Thursday – Ruff Ryders

Do you remember when Ruff Ryder run the rap game ( just like jail ) and Eve made female rappers respectable? Now Eve is/was acting and the Ruff Ryders have disbursed. Disappointment has settled on my face. Drag is trying a comeback, DMX is MMA fighting and Swizz is in US weekly. The game has changed around Jada but one thing remains consistent, Kiss still delivers the perpetual oyster bars.

Bonus’ after the jump.

Answer The Call Concert At MSG With Jay-Z

Last night Jay-Z created history once again at his Answer the call concert at Madison Square Garden in NYC. A sold out stadium rocked out for two hours to classics and newbies. I didn’t get the front seat but FUSE provided the show for all the home viewers. Can’t deny Hov is the King of this rap thing.

PMD Album Review: The Blueprint 3

The Blueprint 3: Jay-Z

The Blueprint 3: Jay-Z

It’s been quite sometime since a review for an album here on PMD. as a matter of fact it’s been a while since I’ve posted. my heart has been affected by tre (put accent) stagnation of the game. There’s been “progression” over the past few months, but in my opinion we could be much further ahead.

Fast forward to present day. It’s Tuesday and as I ride in this cab to the office, I decided it’s time to write this review. The third installment of Jay-Z’s Blueprint series has had several different feelings. At first it was the excitement of sitting at the Allido Records studio with peoples hearing “D.O.A.” for the first time. That excitement and energy was reminiscent of the days I’d run to the radio late night for that freestyle or when you’d be the only one on school with an album a few days early because you went to Beatstreet (R.I.P.) the Friday before the release. The excitement disappeared when some of the leaks didn’t live up to that feeling. Well, the album’s here and I listened to it more than enough to give a fair and thorough assessment. Let go into BP3, people.

Video: “Who’s Real” Jadakiss
Feat. Swizz Beatz & OJ Da Juiceman

From Goat: Eventhough Trose posted this I wanted to say this. I bet the only way Swizz let Jada have this was with that god awful hook attached. Cause that nursery rhyme boogaloo nonsense. Beats hot though.
