If you’ve been paying any sort of attention to the news, or at the very least your twitter feed, you’ve seen some shit about North Korea. Supposedly they’re planning to attack us, or nuke us…or something. I’m really not even sure. I tried to talk to the Korean man that works at the Circle K on my block but he wasn’t tryna offer up any information. Either way, we can all agree it’s best that we’re prepared. Here at HFHH, we’ve devised a plan, so hear us out…

Send them GBE muhfuckers over there. North Korea must not have heard that we roll with Lil Reese and dem. Lets call it Operation 3Hunna.

These muhfuckers must not know about Sosa, they’re sending threats this way like we ain’t got GBE over here with an abundance of cobras ready to go at a moments notice. If the U.S. really wants to resolve this whole North Korea issue, they would have Chief Keef & Lil Reese on the first plane over there. For defense purposes, we need to hold Fredo back where he’s most effective, in the cut. All them other muhfuckers can go though. If they can come out on top in Chiraq, they gon be alright in North Korea. Give Tadoe a CamelBak full of molly water and two M-16′s and I’m sure bodies will drop at an alarming rate.

Then we have SD, who I don’t really know much about to be quite honest. However, judging by this mixtape cover, I wouldn’t dare fuck with him or anybody he’s associated with. This man has 2 pistols firmly placed on each side of his dome, surely he can be of some assistance. These are the guys y’all wanna fuck with, North Korea? Suit yourselves.

Now I ain’t no military expert or nothing, but I think the obvious choice is to have Chief Keef on the ground leading the GBE troops. Sosa gonna pop up on the coast like…

While he’s introducing these North Koreans to his llama, Lil Reese gonna be in the air intercepting missiles n shit. These fuckbois don’t wanna see Lil Reese in traffic where he’s bout that action.

Fredo’s gonna hold shit down on the home front, in the nearest cut. Think of him as the Coast Guard or whoever, if these fuckers somehow make their way over here, they’re in for a scary sight.

If somehow all that fails, we still got the best military in the world and all that shit so I got about just as many worries as Lil Wayne at this point. “At the top it’s just U.S. nigga, but I don’t really trust niggas. USA, we don’t fuck with niggas. At the top, where you see us nigga”.

Y’all be easy.

Real Talk season 2 is still underway, and it’s about time that we addressed you hoes. We slander dudes more than enough, it’s the females’ turn to get some of this Real Talk for a change. It’s time to speak on you ratchets. Like the gentlemen we are though, we decided to bring on a guest writer for this Real Talk, a female writer. We’re gonna just let her slander y’all, but rest assured we threw a few jabs of our own in there as well. Ling, the floor is yours.

“Girl, I need some new pics for IG”

Aren’t we all tired of logging onto Instagram and seeing those girls who post up nothing but pictures of themselves? Booty all up on the sink, duck lips, taking a shot, smoking a blunt, showing off their goodies, and always saying they’re “ugly”? Her hair did, nails did, her jewelry on point! When you see her out though, you’re like “Are you ___ on IG?” I guess the real pictures of her are the “Just woke up, good morning IG”. Or what about the ones that post pictures up of EVERYTHING to get likes? Their weed, bottles, “their boo” (although they’re usually side bitches), their food (usually that they haven’t cooked), etc. We understand that your confidence is low, and for most of you broads these likes on Instagram somehow equates to self-worth. Thanks guys for gassing these bitches up with every double tap of their “selfies”, and all that extra shit y’all be doing. Now y’all got these hoes out here big headed for no reason, and at the end of it all she still ain’t letting you backstroke in her box. Let me toss a little secret off the backboard for you motherfuckers, compliments are the fastest route to the friend zone. Sure, all women love a good compliment, but she doesn’t exactly want one from your ass..feel me? You’re better off just telling her how it really is. She might wind up laughing it off, and fucking with you off the strength that you kept it real. You’re not in a better position by filling her up with gas, you probably not gonna listen though. But this shit not about y’all, just thought I’d sit that valuable information in your laps while we were on the topic.

“Red bottoms, red bottoms for my bitches!”

We should all know the rapper Yo Gotti can afford to buy his bitches red bottom heels, but you hoes think just because the bottoms are red that it’s what these rappers are talking about. NO! Red sole shoes were originally the trademark for Christian Louboutin. Your shoes DO NOT COUNT, even if you paint them red. Unless of course they are the luxury brand.

“Girl, you the shit!”

Charlotte Russe, Wet Seal, Forever 21, Body Central, Dots, and H&M are all stores us girls can relate to. I mean we ain’t ballin’ out here right? Casual wear and maybe some laid back bar clothes. If you go to the club, flaunting and thinking you’re “THE SHIT” in these outfits, fall back. Then there’s the girls we all know that think they’re “thick”. Belly hanging out over their pants, busting out of their shirts, or always tryna wear something tight as hell to show off them “curves”. “You go girl!” Yeah, go home and go to sleep. Have you ever thought about hitting the gym? You also have these girls out here thinking they’re Barbies! For some reason, every female now-a-days thinks putting on some eye shadow and some red lipstick will make their outfit. NO, have several seats please. There’s a technique to putting on makeup, and it takes some skill. Also some sort of knowledge of “fashion” to actually kill it. But hey, it’s apart of a fad, so that’s why everyone’s doing it! What happened to at least looking somewhat natural? I mean, don’t take it all the way natural. If your armpit, leg hair, and fake eyelashes are longer than your real hair, STOP IT! Who just wants to see a girl with long ass armpit hair with deodorant clumps all in there? We’re already drunk at these clubs, and bars, don’t give us another reason to puke.

“Do you work here?”

Are you the bar tender? You’re here every time I come! Do you really have that much time, energy, and funds to go out every week? Are you really that anti-social in a social scene that you can’t invite friends over for a few drinks and music? You just have to go to the club and bust it open. “Don’t stop, pop that” “Girl! This my song!” What song isn’t your song? You use that welfare, SSI, or child support check to get that outfit and hair did. I don’t pay my taxes so you can rub up on me. I don’t pay my taxes for you to be at the club tryna fight me. Remember, you’re there because I work.

“A real bitch rolls your blunts.”

Can I know where the fuck did this shit came from? Oh yes, you’re a bad bitch. They know how to roll blunts. Do you know how to cook though? What are you gonna do when he smokes that blunt, and has the munchies? Warm up some microwavable food? Use your food stamp card for him to buy snacks? Or hit up the grocery store with your EBT, and get something to throw in the oven to say you cooked it? Processed food doesn’t count as real food. Mashed potatoes shouldn’t be made from powder and milk. Your sides such as greens, corn, yams, and mac & cheese shouldn’t come from a can! As a woman, I stress that you should learn how to cook, that’s the best way to a man’s heart. Blunt rolling skills ain’t getting you a wedding ring, get in the kitchen.

“They ain’t together anymore”

Oh stop! I hate this. You females hate on your friend’s relationship, try to break them up, but are the first ones to hop on the dude’s dick immediately after. What happened to loyalty? If they aren’t officially together, you’ll still find you way to nudge into their relationship. He isn’t your bro, he don’t even like you I promise. You’re the biggest threat to his happiness with his girl, so he only gonna fuck you afterwards for revenge purposes. And cause the pussy’s new, but that’s neither here nor there.

“Let’s link up”

If this is how a guy asks you on a date, it’s not a date. If you consider this a date, have a seat. If you don’t live by the quotes that you like on FaceBook & Instagram, or retweet on twitter, you need to get your life together. If you don’t even know what the term chivalry means, then you need to continue to read this. Bottles, blunts, riding around in the car, or meeting at the club is not a date. If you and him meet up at your house and he honks, calls, or texts you, and doesn’t knock on the door, are you sure you want to date him? He ain’t shit, but then again you probably ain’t either.

As to conclude everything I said, if you do any of these things, yes, you have some ratchet in you. If you do everything I’ve said, you are ratchet. Ain’t no way around it (in my best Future voice). If you are offended, just admit it. You ain’t shit. Other than that, looking at this any other way is a factor of growing up, maturing, and finding a great guy. It could be a fairy tale to you. These should be signs that you should look at, or things that you need to NOT do. It’s never to late to better yourself. Luckily the Mayans fucked up, you still got some time left to prosper out here. Take advantage of it.

Our Twitters are linked at the top if y’all wanna come chop it up with us. Everyday is Real Talk on our Twitter timelines, feel free to fall through & say what’s up or whatever. Share this post for all the ratchets in your life, pass this along in hopes for a better tomorrow. Ight, be easy y’all.

I hope y’all got your ringside seats, cause it’s ass whooping season. We’ve laid low with the Real Talk series for the past few months, patiently waiting to unleash our slander upon the world once again. We’ve witnessed a lot of shit during that time that needs to be addressed, so put your feelings aside and let us better you. Before we start, if you made it to the year 2013, and your profile on any social network contains the word “Papi” or you’re shirtless in your avi, well, this shit ain’t for you fatherless faggots. No hope left for y’all, we’re leaving you in 2012. Now let’s get down to it.

First and foremost, y’all need to stop with all this false stunting. We can all afford a Louis belt, you don’t need to Instagram it bruh. Some of you have convinced yourselves that you have money cause you got a drawer full of designer accessories, but a closet full of white tees. Buying things that you like is absolutely fine, enjoy yourself. Showing off after every little purchase though, that ain’t fooling anybody. That’s undercover broke boy shit, don’t wind up in that box.

Buying Twitter followers. Y’all know there are apps and shit to detect who has fake followers and all that jazz these days, right? The jig is up, the cat is out of the bag, you fake important muhfuckers need a new gimmick. Y’all out here tweeting for nobody, followers looking like Manti Teo’s girlfriend. So many people out here wanna be important or liked so bad, without putting any type of work in, this shit is absolutely disgusting. Keep the debit card in the wallet man, it isn’t too hard to get yourself some real followers. We live in a generation where eating your own used tampon can get you a smooth 50,000…shoutout @TheGiovannaP. Or you could always try actually succeeding at something, and watch the followers come.

Women, y’all need to start being women again. You fake heartless hoes tryna front like nobody can hurt you, that shit needs to stop. It’s cool to show some emotion, you’re a female. Ain’t nothing more pathetic than a woman who claims she’s got no feelings, and can’t be hurt by no man, then proceeds to fill our twitter timeline with subtweets aimed at “him”. If you’re really heartless, cut that shit out, get out there and fuck dudes, get money…or whatever it is y’all fake heartless females are supposed to do. I don’t really know who convinced y’all that trying to play the mans role was attractive, but it flat out ain’t. Just know, we here at HFHH see right through it, you can’t bluff us.

Let’s talk about this Catfish epidemic. I’m sure most of y’all have seen the hit show on MTV, if not you need to check into that immediately because it’s pure comedy. Y’all gullible muhfuckers need to stop getting fooled by these online spam accounts yo. If that bitch (or man) is too good to be true, motherfucker it is! You know damn well you ain’t shit, did you really think Miss America was trying to have you throw the cuffs on her? Y’all falling in love with bitches who got one pic on Twitter, and it’s her twitcon. Y’all out here texting with somebody for 2 years, never heard their voice or nothing. The red flags are flapping in the wind, and you’re still convinced there’s nothing fishy going on here. I’ma leave it at that though, cuz I enjoy watching you dumbasses on TV every Monday at 11.

We know, we know…you popped a molly, you sweating, WOO! That’s dead, we don’t care. It’s 2013, and we’re on our Breaking Bad shit. If it ain’t crystal meth or better, we don’t even want to hear about it. Only a matter of time until being a certified junkie is cool, and you know we’re always ahead of the game.

Go ahead and use the buttons below to share this post. We all know somebody that needs to read this. Oh, and follow us on twitter. Expect more of these, soon.

What’s up fam, we’re back with another list for y’all. Be on the lookout for more of these coming soon, at least one a week moving forward. Today we’re hear to speak on something very important to us here over at HFHH, ignorance. We love some ignorance, who doesn’t? Ignorant bangers are essential for disturbing your neighborhood, and for spilling drinks in your local club. This is the type of music that you go to when you have no fucks to give, and you just want to forget all the rules of life for a little while. We’ve compiled a brief list of essential ignorant anthems, ones that have recently dropped within the past few months. Next time you put a playlist together, or make a new CD for that interstate drive with the work, make sure you got all of these on deck. Continue reading below, and let’s get started.

Future - Mind Blown (Feat. 2 Chainz & Waka Flocka)

Future has been relatively quiet since dropping his debut album, Pluto, earlier this year. These past few weeks he's began to feed the streets once again, serving us up with a couple of bangers. This one right here is the epitome of hype, ignorance, and is basically what Future does best. Tity & Waka also drop verses, so not much else even needs to be said.

Tyga - Do My Dance (Feat. 2 Chainz)

You can't have an ignorant playlist without one of Tyga's ratchet anthems, and we're in luck seeing as he recently dropped this gem featuring 2 Chainz. Make sure this song is in rotation when it's time to raise the ignorant levels.

King L - My Hoes They Do Drugs (Feat. Juicy J & Pusha T)

This is an overlooked joint right here. King L brings along Juicy J & Pusha T (rightfully so) for an ode to his bitches that don't fuck with that sober life. Even if you're clean, nothing wrong with your hoes doing drugs b. Don't sleep on this one, the ignorant levels on this are well about satisfactory.

Yo Gotti - Got Dat Sack Remix (Feat. Young Jeezy & T.I.)

Possibly the most overlooked song of the year was Yo Gotti's "Got Dat Sack". If this isn't a hit, then we might as well call it a wrap and shut the site down. If the original wasn't dope enough, Gotti recently dropped the remix featuring Jeezy & T.I.P. When it's time to get ignorant, you already know what to do.

Meek Mill - Believe It (Feat. Rick Ross)

When it comes to those authentic, ignorant bangers, MMG has to be somewhere on the list right? Well fuck you if you think otherwise. Meek Mill recently dropped his debut album, Dreams & Nightmares, which was surprisingly mild on the banger side of things. "Believe It" was the one ignorant gem that surfaced from the body of work, featuring the man who does it better than most, Rick Ross...and he's got that Justin Bieber.

A$AP Rocky - Fuckin' Problem (Feat. 2 Chainz, Drake, & Kendrick Lamar)

Up next is A$AP Rocky's new single, which is a fuckin' problem (no pun intended). We also have another appearance by 2 Chainz who is a frequent feature on ignorant jams if you haven't caught on by now. Drake drops another hot verse as if he doesn't know how to spit a bad one, and Kendrick comes in at the end to do his usual bodying. This song touches on a problem all of us dudes have, while retaining an air of ignorance.

Rick Ross - Us Remix (Feat. Drake)

Rick Ross & Drake are up next as they went over Lil Reese's street anthem, "Us". GBE might be second to none when it comes to putting out those pure ignorant bangers right now, but add Rick Ross & Drake to the mix and you officially take it to another level. This shit hasn't come out of rotation since the day it dropped, and it won't anytime soon. Drake comes through one more again and spits the hottest verse on the song, "You let Drizzy get a verse, you gon get this wooorkk".

Chief Keef - Love Sosa

Your clique full of broke boys, GAWD y'all some broke boys. These bitches love Sosa, they do it all for Sosa. Shit, I really ain't even got much else to say. The lyrics say it all. If you don't like this song, you either a broke boy, or a fuck boy, or both. Your choice. Put this shit on, grab a bottle of whatever it is you prefer, and try not to hurt anybody.

We know this isn’t a Hip Hop related “Real Talk”, but it’s football season so deal with it. If you ain’t with football, fuck you. Anyways, the first week of the regular season is in the books, and it’s time for all the overreacting to begin. In our minds, champions are already being crowned, draft picks are already labeled as busts, and coaches are already on the hot seat. Now, we aren’t NFL analysts or anything, just two dudes with observations. So with that said, here’s what we learned after Week 1…

Jimmy Graham & Tony G can dunk the goal post, Vernon Davis can not. You got rejected by the goddamn crossbar bruh, that shit is embarrassing as fuck. You ain’t the tallest cat in the world, but you’re tall enough to clear a crossbar with a football my dude. The sad part is, you know if you’re going to make it or not as soon as you leave your feet. Once he leaped, he already knew he fucked up, but he was committed to the attempt at that point. Just finger-roll that bitch next time Vernon, nobody’s gonna think any less of you.

Crown RGIII rookie of the year, nah but really, crown him. My Saints defense ain’t exactly NFL caliber, but playing flawless in one of the toughest away environments in the league is no easy task. All the other rookie QB’s looked like flat out ass, but we’ll get to that shortly. RGIII showed he’s clearly the best of bunch for now, and I don’t see him going on a drastic downward spiral anytime soon. Am I overreacting here? Maybe a little. But hey, so is ESPN.

Matter of fact, I’ve got a great idea on how we can make RGIII’s crown. We need to stop by Brandon Weeden’s crib, gather up all the awards or trophies he has ever won, and just melt them shits down man. He just ain’t worthy. This muhfucker finished his first ever professional regular season game with a 5.1 passer rating. That number would be pretty impressive if he were Dolby Surround Sound or some shit, but this is football. No one is expecting hall of fame numbers, but my passer rating was 5.1 points below Weeden’s, and I was sitting on a fuckin couch. The corpse of Helen Keller would have been a more viable quarterback. Also, this is the embodiment of struggle, in gif form.

That longsnapper for the Raiders, I don’t even know what his name is, but MY GOD. This duded fucked up three snaps in a row. I’ve never seen three punt attempts denied back to back to back ever in my life. This motherfucker ain’t even snap the ball half the time, he just rolled that bitch to the punter and left him to get swarmed by opposing players. If the special teams performance wasn’t bad enough at that point, they followed it up with what might have the been the worst onside kick attempt in the history of football. That whole game was jokes man.

These fucking replacement refs, these goddamn K-Mart, bluelight special refs got to fucking go. Y’all out here blowing calls, giving teams extra timeouts for good behavior and shit, and all types of other fuckery. The original refs aren’t that great themselves, but these motherfuckers they got out here can’t be any more qualified to wear a striped shirt than the sales associates at Foot Locker.

That’s about it for Week 1. Tonight marks the start of Week 2, so enjoy that game for those who will be watching. One last thing….when shit like THIS happens, it should be mandatory that you turn in your jersey. Alright, y’all be cool.

Written by @EricRayweather & @DrewHowFly

Alright man, it’s about that time again. We apologize for not delivering any “Real Talk” pieces for a minute, but we only write when something really inspires us. With that said, here we are.

Most of y’all should know by now, but yesterday Lil Wayne announced that the Dedication 4 mixtape would be arriving next month. Now, this would be dope news pre-2010, but in 2012 we’re not so sure. The Dedication series is arguably the best of all time, top 5 no debating. Those tapes are what really got Weezy recognized as one of rap’s elite in the mid 2000′s, but this was before he was sober and doing kick flips in his backyard. Look man, ain’t nothing wrong with your new hobby, but we don’t need to hear about that shit in every verse. I’m not tryna hear 15 songs about how much you love your mini vert ramp, and about all the tricks you can land on a good day. Take one song, dedicate it to skating, get it all out, then leave it there. Don’t even put that song on the tape bruh, make it a bonus joint or some shit.

I ain’t trying to hear no commercials in my songs either man. I probably wouldn’t wear Trukfit if you gave me the shit, and I damn sure ain’t doing no sexual favors for a tee or something…no homo.

Now I’m about to speak for the entire Hip Hop community on this one, leave them shit rappers off this mixtape. Don’t be like 50 and try to force muhfuckers like Kidd Kidd into our headphones. Don’t even give Lil Chuckee & Lil Twist directions to the fucking studio you’re at bruh, don’t even let them know you got a mixtape coming out. Tell em somebody hacked your Twitter and sent that shit out. Forget you even signed half them motherfuckers you got on your roster. Let Drake get a couple authentic verses, let Birdman talk shit on one track, and that’s it. Get a guest verse from Curren$y if possible, and call it a wrap.

Ok, now onto more pressing matters. This is more of a plea, rather than a “Real Talk” at this point. Don’t fuck this shit up Wayne. Don’t ruin my favorite mixtape series of all time, that’s all I’m asking. You got Drama back riding shotgun, he’s gonna be shouting out all types of brilliantly ignorant one liners, you got no excuse to fuck this up. I’m not even asking for the old Wayne back, I’m not that guy. I’m asking that you deliver what you’re capable of. You’ve put out a few hot verses these past couple months, so I know you still have it in you. I defended The Carter IV man, I kinda like that shit a lil, but no more passes. No Sorry 4 The Wait, which was trash minus like 2-3 songs. Remember, Drama’s sending these beats to the Mixtape Weezy, not the X-Games Tunechi. Keep that in mind when recording bruh. Don’t put out a dud like 50 Cent did with that Lost Tape bullshit, I still can’t believe Drama even attached his name to that garbage. That tape hit the recycle bin in record time, but that’s neither here nor there.

That’s about it. Just don’t fuck this up. You ain’t gotta give us a masterpiece, just don’t give us some trash. Most Hip Hop fans already gave up on you, but for those of us who are left, this is your last chance. Real muhfuckers can’t ride with you much longer. We forgave you for the leopard jeggings at the VMA’s, but we gotta draw the line somewhere dawg. You can’t fuck up this legendary mixtape series and get away with it, so I’m just putting you on notice. Ima beat you with your skateboard if you fuck this one up fam, I’m serious. If you ruin this I’m typing in my name, and clocking out like Morgan Freeman at the end of The Dark Knight. Sincerely, an honest fan.

It’s hot outside, the drinks are cold, the females are half naked, and music is banging. We all know the Summer time is when we get arguably the best music, and the most ignorant anthems that cause us to make mistakes when mixed with alcohol. We’ve compiled our list of what we believe are the 10 best Summer Bangers of 2012, the 10 songs that embody everything you could want during this time of year.

Continue reading below, and lets get started.

Dom Kennedy - My Type Of Party

"Your girl got a nice face, her friend got a nice body. They just wanna have fun, this my type of party." Cute bitches, alcohol, some weed, and a beat that will make your trunk rattle. The hook alone describes Summer, what more could you want? You'd be hard-pressed to find a better Summer anthem than this right here. Mix this audio with some females, alcohol, and maybe a pool, and you got a mixture that can't go wrong.

A$AP Rocky - Goldie

What do you get when you mix A$AP Rocky & producer Hit-Boy? You get a song full of dope lyrics to tweet to your bitches, and a beat that's guaranteed to knock. This served as A$AP Rocky's first single, and he couldn't have made a better choice just in time for the Summer. Windows down, riding through the city, or in the club mobbin', this is definitely one of the top bangers of the season.

Rick Ross - So Sophisticated (Feat. Meek Mill)

You can't have a Summer banger list without Rozay present, that's just some disrespectful shit. Ross has released a few singles for his upcoming album God Forgives, I Don't , but none other lives up the signature Rozay title than this one right here. "Hold Me Back" was an okay attempt, but "So Sophisticated" takes the cake by far. Meek Mill comes through and levitates all over the instrumental at the end, leaving us with a song to blast out our car speakers until it gets cold outside.

Juicy J - Bands A Make Her Dance (Feat. Lil Wayne & 2 Chainz)

This one might be my personal favorite at the moment. Juicy J brings another ratchet strip club anthem that gets the bitches to shaking something, and makes the trunk slap. Mike Will produced it so you know the beat is correct already, add in the fact that both Lil Wayne & 2 Chainz hopped on the song, and you have one of the best anthems of year, let alone the Summer. If I ever walk into a strip club and this is playing, I'm gonna instantly go broke making it rain with money that I really can't afford to be throwing. And remember, "You say no to ratchet pussy, Juicy J can't!"

Meek Mill & Big Sean - Burn

This song has been in constant rotation since it was dropped that one Friday afternoon in May. There isn't really anybody else I'd rather hear just go in over a banging beat together than Meek Mill & Big Sean right now. They came, they talked about fucking all our bitches, they bodied the instrumental, then peeled off in the Maybach on us. ....Lil Bitch.

French Montana - Pop That (Feat. Rick Ross, Drake, & Lil Wayne)

This could've easily been #1 honestly, but on the strength of the popularity of the upcoming songs, we decided this was a fair spot. A few months ago, I never would've thought French Montana could make a song I'd love so much, but god damnnit he dropped a Summer gem with this one. It's no "I'm On One" from last year, but it gives me a similar feeling when I hear it come on in the clubs. Drake came through and dropped another dope verse, as he's been doing all year with not a single fuck to give. Wayne told all the bitches to suck his dick for some TrukFit, I'll let that one slide though cause the song is so damn hot.

Meek Mill - Amen (Feat. Drake & Jeremih)

Meek Mill makes another appearance on the list with his lead single "Amen". A part of me doesn't consider this a traditional "banger", but it's close enough and absolutely has to make this list. If you have a list of top Summer songs, and this isn't on it, you took a wrong a turn somewhere. If you don't fuck with this song you're just sad with no bitches, money, or any type of fun to look forward to. Your girl just dumped you, all you got left is tears and hope. If anything, you should love this song in that situation. Take your ass to the club, sing the hook when it comes on, and try to convince yourself you're happy until the alcohol wears off. In conclusion, this shit rides bruh.

G.O.O.D. Music - Mercy (Feat. 2 Chainz)

You already knew this was coming, you're not surprised right now. If anything, some of y'all probably gonna complain about why this isn't #1, but this is our list so get over it if that's the case. Anyways, G.O.O.D. Music didn't hold back for their single, and they brought along Tity 2 Necklace to float all over this shit. Honestly, without 2 Chainz this song isn't even remotely interesting at this point. You could just loop his verse 4 times, and call it a wrap as far as I'm concerned. But yo Ye, we need a remix to this shit already...preferably with Fabolous & Rick Ross on it. Is that too much to ask or nah?

2 Chainz - No Lie (Feat. Drake)

Man don't look at us like that, you knew this shit was coming too. I was a bit skeptical that 2 Chainz could drop an authentic single, but he came with a first round knockout with this shit. Mike Will on the production, enough said there. Drake comes through for one of his signature hooks, and drops yet another dope verse filled with quotes you can tweet till the weather cools down. "Just need to know what that pussy like, so one time is fine with me." Might be the most genius line of 2012 so far. That shit applies to every heterosexual male with air in his fucking lungs. That line isn't gonna work as good for us regular motherfuckers, but it is what it is.

Cheif Keef x G.O.O.D. Music - I Don't Like (Remix)

We've already seen a GOOD Music track at number 3, and now they're back to top off the list with their Chief Keef collaboration. If you hear me beating down your block with this coming out the speakers, take your jaywalking ass inside, because it's not safe for you outdoors. This right here embodies what it means to be a banger. It hits in the whip, it's on some ignorant shit in general, AND everyone pretty much killed their verse. I've contemplated starting a rap career because of this song alone, and dissing every fuckboi I know...but that's another topic.

Y'all know the drill. If you want to hit us up to tell us how much our list sucks, or that we ain't shit, head on over to Twitter. All we do is tweet music and dope shit, who wouldn't want that on their timeline? Oh, not you? Fuck it, the links are below anyway.

What’s good everybody? First off, Happy belated Mothers Day to all you women out there, even the young ones that ain’t plan on this shit. Alright, now lets get down to business. For those of y’all who fuck with us on Twitter, you know we’re on there quite often. We chop it up with some of y’all, the rest of you fools need to get on board as well. There’s a lot of shit that goes down everyday on the digital, filthy streets of Twitter that we just can’t fucking stand. For those of y’all who are new to Twitter, or are thinking about signing up, make sure you pay close attention. We’re going to keep you from looking like a bunch of self-conscious, thirsty savages. If you’ve been on Twitter for a while, rest assured, you probably do some of the shit we’re about to mention. Lucky for you, it’s not too late to change your ways….so let’s get to it.

You simp muhfuggas, that’s that shit we don’t like. Fuck that, we absolutely DETEST you Drizzy Drake replicas. Y’all all know what we’re talking about. The guys with 36 followers who compliment every average female every chance they get, like all her Instagram pics, etc. Now we cant even lie, you little warriors do prosper on Twitter..to an extent. No bad bitch is going to ever fuck with you, but y’all seem to be perfectly fine with that. Y’all target the self-conscious, needy bitches (who we’ll address later) who thrive on attention to make it through their lonely days. The thing is, that’s all you will ever be. You’re not getting the box, you’re not getting any nude pics, you’re just nothing more than a retweet and a “Thanks!” mention. Y’all fucking the game up for everybody else who carefully plots his attacks. We have to refrain from following some of these hoes back cause we’re not tryna do battle with you thirsty savages. These bitches got no need for a real muhfugga when 50 of y’all are having an H20 shindig in her mentions daily. At some point, your thirst minutes run out. Y’all out here acting like there’s an unlimited data plan of thirst, shit don’t work that way. You’re gonna be a few retweets, then probably get blocked for spam as she moves onto the next one. Take it from us, y’all look fucking stupid. Sit back, get a Dasani, and fucking chill.

All you bitches on twitter, constantly seeking approval of others….that’s that shit we don’t like. You self-conscious females need to go back to Facebook with all that shit. It’s easy to post a half naked picture on Facebook, get 70 likes, and end your day on a high note. You come to Twitter with that shit, you better be ready to stack up. There’s an entire digital underground of 5 star bitches on Instagram, and we got a directory to that shit. If you have to tweet pics of yourself and then ask if you look good, throw in the fucking towel. Y’all are the same ones who retweet all these thirsty savages we mentioned previously. By doing that shit, you already devalued yourself. Real bad bitches ain’t retweeting nobody with 10 fucking followers, but you will, cause you need that approval to feel as though you’re unfuckwitable. I’m going to just close this paragraph with some wise words from Joe Budden: “No self esteem to cover her lack of confidence, she get on Twitter retweeting all the compliments.”

….Now that I think about it, what’s even more pathetic is that dudes do this shit as well. Stop tweeting pics asking what others think about it. The fuck you need approval for bruh? The problem is, there aren’t enough real people on twitter who will give you negative feedback, that’s why y’all ask. There’s no fear in it cause everybody you fuck with is just like you, constantly seeking the approval of others. There isn’t much room for the real on twitter. Everybody wants lie to you motherfuckers and lead y’all down a path that gets you no where outside of your 140 character or less tweets. And stop biting your lip in pictures, that shit is for bitches…and put your shirt back on you malnourished fuck. I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again: “If you’re going to follow/retweet me, all I ask is that you keep your shirt on in your avi.” That’s not too much to ask for in 2012 is it?

You copy and paste quote motherfuckers, yep, that’s that shit we fucking HATE. Need some relationship, or live advice? Have no fear, just hit up Twitter where everybody in the 17-20 age range is a certified expert. I mean, there’s nothing wrong with a good inspiring quote every once in a while, but you lil motherfuckers spend all day tweeting them shits. Y’all are the same type of males we mentioned two paragraphs ago, seeking retweets from lonely bitches with a Drake playlist on. Y’all aren’t “deep”, or have even lived long enough to practice what you “preach” daily. The next time you get the urge to drop some knowledge on us, courtesy of your right click, don’t. Just stop. Don’t fucking do that. Calm the fuck down, and just be a regular person for 5 minutes. It isn’t hard to get followers while keeping your dignity, try it out sometime.

We could go on, believe us. This is all we have time for today, but trust a part two will be in the making sometime soon. Y’all be easy, hit us on up on Twitter if you can refrain from doing all the above mentioned fuckery.

It’s that time of year again. It’s no secret that the Summer is the best time of year for Hip Hop. Everybody aims for a Summer release, and usually the hottest albums/singles drop during this time. We went ahead and compiled our top 5 most anticipated albums for the upcoming season. Narrowing this time was a bit of struggle, since there are more than 15 big name artists planning to drop withing the next 3 months. As always, this is just our opinion, like it or not. We start with #5, and work our way to #1. Click “read more”, and let’s get this started.

#5 2 Chainz - Based On A T.R.U. Story | August 14th

2 Chainz might be the hottest emcee in the game right now. Regardless of MTV ignoring his buzz when compiling this years list, it's no secret that this man of many names has been invading mp3 files all over the country. Your favorite rapper has a song with him, and if they don't yet, rest assured they're working on it. You can pick up any album, or mixtape, and 2 Chainz is bound to have a 16 dropped on there somewhere. To say this man hasn't won a lot of people over would be a lie. The big question here is, can he live up to the hype? The buzz he's got going right now is somewhat comparable to Lil Wayne a few years back, when his features took the game over. As of right now, all we have is the new single "No Lie" which sounds like it has potential. Expect more information to surface very soon, we believe this will be one of the hottest albums this Summer.

#4 Big K.R.I.T. - Live From The Underground | June 5th

No surprise here. The Mississippi emcee is finally going to bless us with his long awaited debut album, Live From The Underground. This was originally supposed to drop last September, but the timing just wasn't right for K.R.I.T. He first pushed it back to the beginning of this year, before once again pushing it back to June 5th. K.R.I.T. has made it clear that there will be no more pushbacks, and even gave us another dope mixtape to hold us over in the meantime. We don't know too much about the album yet, other than the single "I Got This", and that he has spoken on a 2 Chainz feature. Look for this to be one of the better albums not only of the Summer, but the year.

#3 Curren$y - The Stoned Immaculate - June 5th

Coming in at number three, is none other than Curren$y, a.k.a. Spitta, with The Stoned Immaculate. Spitta is known to drop numerous projects every single year, but as far as we can tell, this is the only album he plans to drop in 2012. We know Muscle Car Chronicles came out a couple of months back, but that wasn't even authorized by Spitta, nor should it have been. That one was better left in the vault. What intrigues us most with this album is that Curren$y is venturing out and working with a variety of new producers. Usually he likes to stick with the same 1-2 beat makers for one project, but he must have felt it's time to switch things up. Judging on what we've heard thus far, and the features he has lined up for this one, we'll just go out on a limb as say this will be one of his best projects to date. Pre-orders for the album are now available.

#2 Rick Ross - God Forgives, I Don't | July 31st

Coming in at #2 is the MMG capo himself, with his 5th studio album, God Forgives, I Don't. We were hoping to get this last Summer, and then again in December, but release dates never seem to go as planned these days. Ross spent most of last year building his team, which left little time left for his solo projects. Scheduled to finally drop on December 13th, health problems wouldn't permit Rozay to finish up in time. Now we're approaching the Summer of 2012, and the new release date was finally announced last week. Ross promised all brand new material for this project, so the previous singles are out of the window at this point. After dropping Rich Forever to hold us over, there's no reason to believe Ross won't deliver his best album to date when God Forgives, I Don't hit shelves on July 31st. The biggest question here is, will the boss finally go platinum?

#1 G.O.O.D. Music: The Album

Our most anticipated album is the GOOD Music joint, because we fucking said so, and this is an opinion piece. But seriously, is there really any surprise here? If you didn't expect this to be our #1, then you don't know us very well. If Kanye was dropping a solo album, that would be #1. Add in Big Sean, Pusha T, KiD CuDi, and the rest of the G.O.O.D. Music family, and what you have is the recipe for something legendary. If "Mercy" is any indication on what's to come, I think it's safe to say Kanye will once more have all other artists tucking their Summer in. If the first single wasn't enough to convince you, I'm sure y'all happened to catch the recent "I Don't Like" remix that raised the bar once more. Everyone from the G.O.O.D. Music camp has been spitting their ass off recently, so expect Yeezy, Big Sean, Pusha T, & CyHi to continue with that trend. We have no official release date at the moment, but expect it to drop before the Summer ends.

Honorable Mentions

Now, we already know what some of you are thinking. "WHY DID YOU LEAVE ____ OUT?!!" Cause we wanted to, that's why. To say these are the ONLY albums we're anticipating would be comical, to say the least. There are a handful of other drops we can't wait get our hands on, but the ones mentioned previously, are the ones we want most. Just to appease some of y'all we went ahead and listed 3 honorable mentions, in no particular order.
Honorable Mention #1 - A$AP Rocky - LongLiveA$AP (No official release date yet)
Honorable Mention #2 - Meek Mill - Dreams & Nightmares (August 28th)
Honorable Mention #3 - Wiz Khalifa - O.N.I.F.C. (August 28th)

Hip-Hop is dead (or is it?). Nas ran with this gimmick in 2006, dropped an album under that title, and mindless sheep have been repeating it ever since. At the time, who would seriously argue with Nas on the state of Hip Hop? The answer is, not many. Six years later, and you can now find Nas on the latest Nicki Minaj album. So I have to ask, did Nas even believe what he said, or was he full of shit?

It was easy for him to say at the time, that’s when Hip-Hop was really venturing in new directions. Trap music had begun it’s rise, Pop music was starting to influence Hip-Hop singles like never before, and feature whoring was at an all time high. A more appropriate phrase would be: “Hip Hop Doesn’t Sell”, or “Hip Hop Has Evolved”. Did it DIE though? Absolutely not, and the ones who continue to say it are the ones slowly bringing it down.

Eminem collaborating with Rihanna, Nas on multiple Young Money albums, Joe Budden enlisting Lil Wayne for his new single, 50 Cent making songs like “Girls Go Wild”, etc. There’s plenty more examples, way too many to list. At which point do all of those things stop becoming a coincidence, and people start realizing the genre has evolved? Support what you like, and at the end of the day you can be happy with yourself. Wishing failure on an artist you’ve never met simply because their music isn’t to your personal preferences is some bitter shit. Get off the forums and blog sites with all the angry comments. Stop tweeting at artists mad as hell that they are in a better place in life than you are, that shit is a bad look. If you think you are contributing to the genre in a good way by acting like that, rest assured, you’re not.

Now, we don’t believe that Hip-Hop is dead, but there is no debating that Hip-Hop sales have declined. There’s more than one reason as to why that is. The evolution, the internet bootlegging, fans who don’t support albums they like, etc. The evolution of mainstream Hip Hop isn’t the Hip Hop we once knew, and there’s really nothing wrong with that. Everything since the beginning of time on this earth has evolved, and hardcore Hip Hop fans seem to be the only ones who don’t understand that concept. We’re a stubborn bunch. There’s still PLENTY of traditional Hip Hop emcees out there today, and they are more accessible than ever thanks to the internet. There is really no reason to not be satisfied with the state of Hip-Hop, you have more options than ever before. You have to get over the fact that your favorite rapper might not go Platinum, or even Gold, and that’s fine. They can still build a solid fan base, do plenty of shows a year, and be much better off financially than the rest of us.

The sub-genres of Hip Hop have simply grown. Rock music might have more sub-genres than any other, and it’s a great thing. Why can’t Hip Hop have the same? There is something for everybody. You’ve got Mainstream, you’ve got Trap, you’ve got Gangster, Auto-tune, Underground, etc. I could keep going. Then you’ve got guys like Kanye West who continues to push the boundaries, and while he is definitely mainstream, you can’t put him in a box either. There’s just simply too much out there to be on the message boards complaining about how the genre is “dead” when it’s more diverse than ever. In fact, for you purists, there is more “true” (true being in quotes, because I believe the idea of “true” Hip-Hop is bullshit) Hip-Hop available to you now than ever before. Is it what currently sells the most records? No. Luckily, you have the freedom to listen to whatever you like, regardless of what is currently the most popular. If someone wants to cook to some Lil B, or fuck two bad bitches AT THE SAME DAMN TIME, let them live. A few years ago, a guy like Kendrick Lamar wouldn’t have been able to come along spitting what he does now and make a career out of it. The way the internet changed things has allowed that, so if anything you should be excited. Everybody can get a piece of the pie right now, some bigger than others, but that’s just life.

So, the next time you hear 2 Chainz or Future on your local radio station, before you run home to mash your keyboard in anger, just sit back and remember it isn’t that serious. Your time is better spent putting other people on newer artists that you DO like, rather than complaining about why you don’t like Rapper A, B, and C.

If you disagree with this post, fuck you. As always, you can hit us up on Twitter if you want to leave feedback. Until next time, y’all be easy & stay positive.
