Tech offers us a track dedicated to his mother that you can actually understand and keep up with on the first listen through! Tech takes us through his early upbringing after his mother gave birth to him when she was only 16. Since then Tech has been able to rise the ranks and is now the most successful independent rap artist ever, I am sure mom is proud.

You would think it would be a dangerous move to even try and rap over Nas' Halftime instrumental, right? I would. But luckily it looks like Elzhi took that into consideration before putting together his verses for this tribute to Nas' Illmatic classic. Hopefully we get some more Slum Village feel on his upcoming mixtape Elmatic which drops May 10th.

Raekwon releases the newest video for the single Butter Knives off of Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang not a moment too soon. As you would expect from Raekwon, you get a video that encapsulates that hard core NYC street mentality that he is best known for in his rhymes. This track out of all the tracks on Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang reminds me of Rae's featured verse in Mobb Deep's single Eye for and Eye where you can just picture Rae in the kitchen doing his dirt. Check it out as Rae and his people take care of one of his own as he struggles his way through the NYC streets and projects.

Jay Elect has always taken the liberty of time with his creative direction. Reluctant to sign to a label, or produce anything official, the world waits to see if the king of the new school will ever take to his throne. While new artists keep at a mixtape a month pace in order to keep their ravenous fans satisfied, Jay Electronica has not leaked a scrap of new material for so long it's starting to bother people. The bold strategy may be establishing unattainable standards for the MC, or quite possibly giving him the freedom to develop the indisputable evidence of the new schools misdirection. While on a cultural quest while in Kathmandu Nepal during the fall of 2009, Decon produced and Jason Goldwatch shot videos for Jay, videos he never approved. Above you can see Goldwatch's vision while below is Jay Elects self-made version of Dimethyltryptamine. As interesting as the Nepal footage is, something about Jay's ambient-trip and prophetic message of a music video appeals to me, check em both and decide for yourself.

It has been a long while since we have heard anything from Jeezy, since TM103 is looking like it will be the next Detox. Anyway Jeezy comes through here with some quality stuff which is a nice change from the recent Jeezy that has been put out. Hopefully this holds all my Jizzle fans over until that Thug Motivation drops.
