Recently, Rolling Stone magazine crowned Marshall the "King of Hip Hop". They made a list of THEIR top 20 hip hop artists & Slim ranked numero uno. The list was compiled by taking record sales from the last 2 years. Of course, record sales doesn't determine who is the best (what happened to body of work/skills?) but IF we are talking about sales, then i guess this list is pretty accurate. Read the list below of RS's top 20 hip hop artists & decide for yourself.

NEW Curren$y "Pininfarina (Pandemonium Freestyle)"
this is the 1st leak off Hot Spitta's upcoming mixtape with DJ Drama, "Verde Terrace". Can't wait to hear that tape!
Unrelated download: "My People" Kendrick Lamar & Jay Rock - Cali's hottest new jacks team up again for another one. I gotta be honest, I'm slowwwwwly starting to warm up to Kendrick. I still don't think he's the "2nd coming" that everyone's claiming he is, but he's got my attention now. We'll see how this relationship grows.

"One Day It'll All Make Sense" The Autobiography of Common
- In One Day It’ll All Make Sense, Common holds nothing back. He tells what it was like for a boy with big dreams growing up on the South Side of Chicago. He reveals how he almost quit rapping after his first album, Can I Borrow a Dollar?, sold only two thousand copies. He recounts his rise to stardom, giving a behind-the-scenes look into the recording studios, concerts, movie sets, and after-parties of a hip-hop celebrity and movie star. He reflects on his controversial invitation to perform at the White House, a story that grabbed international headlines. And he talks about the challenges of balancing fame, love, and fatherhood.
I'm definitely coppin this. If you're interested as well, you can pre-order it here.
Word son.

Patience is a virtue
Hi there!
Missed me? No? Yeah u did! Well, no need to shed those tears baby boo, I'm back.
Sorry to leave you for a few days, had some business that required my attention (truth: i've been in rehab battling an addiction to Hydroxycut & Body By Vi diet shakes) but I am here, alive & well, and back on my blog shit. Thanks for checkin up on me & checkin in, it's appreciated.
And now for the bad news, my upcoming album "Even When I Lie" will NOT be dropping on Aug.28th, as originally planned. I am not happy with it 100%, therefore I plan on going back in the studio with 50 & Raw Beatzz in a few weeks to tighten up some loose ends as well as possibly adding some new songs. This album has the potential to be my proudest musical creation to date, and even though I'm not completely satisfied with it at this point, I am very happy with it so far, i just think that, with another month of attention & detail, it could be a solid masterpiece as opposed to just "a good album". I don't wanna rush things all for the sake of making a deadline that I made for myself so if you don't mind waiting an extra month, i will deliver my latest opus around the end of September, and I can assure you, it will be worth the wait & you will be glad I took a little more time finishing it up. I have some great ideas that have just came to mind recently and when I see Raw in a few weeks, we will implement those ideas & add the final pieces to my latest creation. I promise, you will be pleased! So....
"Even When I Lie" - September (i pinky promise!)
Oh yeah, and for those who care, I will unveil the cover art for the album on Sept.1st! (Yay?)
Thank you for your patience, and loyalty! I yuv yoo guys! :)
Unrelated: You didn't think I was gonna return from my little hiatus empty handed did ya?

Even When I Lie, on the way!!!!
