If you haven’t checked out the hour and 20 minutes of the group’s sophomore effort then I highly suggest not wasting...

Full disclosure first, I’m a huge Slaughterhouse fan. Not just that, I’m a huge fan of 3 out of the 4 artists in Slaughterhouse (Joell’s boring to me). So I write this as someone who loves their music not just as a group but as individual artists and would love to see them finally...

Quick Darts: Bun B x Royce Da 5’9″ x Redman – Stop Playin’

As seen on RepPGHHipHop.com As the gossip columns (that’s right, you boom bap backpacking fucks, we got our own gossip columns, ha) try to get Drake and J. Cole to go at it as if pitting two future legends against each other is supposed to improve the state of our culture, I find myself...
