VIDEO: DROOP-E – I’M LOADED (FT. E-40)

Straight off the mixtape he released earlier last month with BLVCK SCALE and Diamond Supply Co. Droop drops a video for my favorite track off the project (though all of them were bangers). Shot entirely in my hometown of San Jose. If you missed it the first time, download the mixtape with the link below. Have some Carlo Rossi on me.

*PBBT!’S SMORGASBORD SEPTEMBER 2010

Oh yeah. That just happened. If you think there is any rhyme or reason to this month’s Smorg you’ve lost a little more than you’re marbles. BUT that’s what makes it awesome. This one kinda rides like those random mixtapes/mix cd’s you used to make with whatever song came on the radio/popped up in your head at the time. Fun to make and even more fun to listen to. Now go on down there below the jump and wretch around and wrench it off.

E-40: REVENUE RETRIEVIN ALL DAY

If you like E-40 or not this album should definitely be your flava. Yes released as a double CD, Revenue Retrievin’ Day Shift and Night Shift keeps his name in yo mouth. Forty Water is not alone on this one. He calls in all the respectable bay area heads to provide balance and variety in the songs. With help from the likes of San Quinn, Keak The Sneak, Dru Down, Suga Free, B-Legit, Too Sh$rt, and Snoop Dogg just to name a few, you should keep this slumpin for hours.  This album is not short of music, 19 tracks on both CD’s you get your $’s worth. (Think you can handle that much 40 water?  With all those songs it makes you wonder if some of the tracks are only filler tracks. Could it have been cut down to one project? Well maybe but the mix of sounds makes it tolerable and quite enjoyable.

As the front man for The Click ages he is definitely keepin his game tight with this release. Production is up to par and is consistent with that bay area slump that made him who he is. Jazzy Pha, Lil’ Jon, on some of the beats (not all, thank god) makes it bang harder than the crips and bloods.  Oh yeah I should probably mention there are no auto-tune tracks. Listen to these then hit the jump for the album(s). Fa Shiggady!
