Quick, who do you know that scored a 1600 on the SAT at the age of 14, graduated Harvard at the age of 19, and went on to be one of the most under-released, yet universally-watched-and-listened-to artists in the world?
Here’s a hint: You’ve probably watched his video blog (or one imitating it) and definitely heard [...]

Here is the self proclaimed “Codeine Feind” professing his love for the love of his life, and more importantly H-Town! I am definitely lovin’ all of the shout outs to H Town on this track…good look Wezzy!

If you ain’t already heard it, here is the next single from Bun B’s Trill II.

Touch the Sky
May 13th I’m going to the Kanye concert. For all the shit that people talk about the LV Don, you can’t help but admire the man’s passion. He is changing the game. Everything he does is ground breaking. I don’t care if you dislike dude’s speeches. I don’t care if you’re jealous of his swagger. [...]
