Update: Raekwon “Flawless Crowns” (prod. Mondee) (download link)
Producer Mondee sent over his own mix of the track
Mikey: Why did I not hear this before? and why was this not included on OB4CL2? … those are the questions that have played over and over again in my head as I brought this track back 8 times. Yea, it’s not the most groundbreaking or super lyrical, but sometimes you just come across music that speaks directly to you. (Props Nation)
-Fashion: There were two photos that….well, frankly…they confused me.
(On the left: Chris Brown at Milan Fashion Week, imitating an formal chauffeur-turned-hillside-strangler. Sleeves tucked in?) (pic spotted at TMZ)
(On the right: Monique and husband at this past Sunday’s Golden Globe awards…but…where’s PETA to regulate that mink pelt on her legs? *shivers*) (pic spotted at SandraRose)
After the jump….Nivea remakes her 2nd baby daddy’s worker’s song and turns it into a tale of abandoned love…
Mikey: Rihanna channels the late Bob Marley and shows her support to Haiti. She’ll be performing this song on Oprah’s live special which airs this afternoon titled, Just Back from Haiti—Wyclef Jean’s Devastating Eyewitness Account. Remember you can still donate by simply texting “yele” to “501 501″.
Mikey: Yesterday, the web was flooded with new Drake songs, some unreleased and reference sounding tracks of course. But the keeper of the bunch is “My New” which features Von Pea of Tanya Morgan & Phonte of Little Brother and Nottz on the beats. Such a dope mix of styles on this one…
Tonite, the big homie Funk Flex debuted this new (not I Cant Feel My Face material) collabo between Elz and Weezy….And Juelz (and Joe Wunstop) were nice enough to send me the CDQs for you (thanks Juelz, Thanks Joe Wunstop). Now Juelz told me that they already have the video done, and it should be debuting this week (along with a live performance of “Back to the Crib” : ). But I’m also interested in hearing Juelz’ upcoming song, produced by Bangladesh…I’m happy to see the kid heating up. He’s good peoples.

Jimmy’s new mixtape The Ghost of Rich Porter (see Jimmy talking about the mixtape here) drops on Tuesday, and there have been a couple other leaks, but I’ve been waiting for this sequel to Jim and Game’s “Certified Gangsta” that I think made folks perk up and say, “hmm, this guy is serious about being a solo artist” back in 2004.
New Music: Jim Jones, Game, Mel Matrix and Sen “Certified Gangsta Part 2″ (via Splash) (download link)
More music: Joe Budden “Keep On,” Nipsey Hussle “Return of the Mack,” and more…
