Hottest Rap Song this second, May 20, 2015 @11:20am

French Montana recently dropped Casino Life 2. The way French has approached his beats to me have always been like he was fusing Bollywood, 1990s Bad Boy beats, and Africa all in one pot on many records. That is no more apparent than on the last track of Casino Life 2, "To Each His Own", sounding like an ending to a movie where a beloved character didn't make it to the end. So many homages to past, present, and future events that have been the course for which French Montana has been on since putting out those DVDs. Recent events has this sounding sonically like a ride through time and space. Like the gravity of French's experiences are pushing him through hip hop like his name sake. If you don't agree I say:

The Hottest Rap Song this second is...

Posting the hottest rap song is always easy for me. I usually go out and listen to what people are playing at the clubs, the radio, and finally what rap song is currently holding the hip heads playlist for ransom. This week I picking Future "Move that dope", featuring Pharell, Casino, and Pusha T(aka King Push). This rap song has Future and company raping over a Mike Will produced beat. The subject matter is not a popular one. However this song is built for driving fast and 90 degree weather. This song will make the club get hype and have your grandma twerking to it at the family barbeque.-thegqlife

Detroit Rap Music finally touching the global conscious

In the late 90s the female Cha Cha had features from Nas, Junvinile, Memphis Bleek, surely Detroit would get its due in the hip hop world. Nope not a peep. I know we were sent Eminem and D12 luckily. Don't get me wrong that was live! However when you look a the thousands of rappers that have enjoyed the limelight from Atlanta, New Orleans, and California. Detroit hasn't had many as I thought they should. I mean the city has all the makings of a hip hop mecca. That has finally changed. First we got Big Sean, then Danny Brown, and then we got Dope Boyz Cashout.  These artists have the essence of Detroit down pat and display it for the world to see. So get ready for the rise of Detroit Rap Music because it is here! What up doe! -thegqlife

Raise your hand if after hearing Kanye West you heed the call to do your ##########ing THANG!!!!




Kanye West has been all over the radio talking about his ambition. He wants to not just play in the sandbox he wants to own and build and not even call it a sandbox! Oh blasphemy! Heretic! How dare he!

What people don't get is that he takes on defying convention is really challenging people to obliterate all barriers and carve out new paths. Too many people have said that Mr. West is too arrogant. Sorry he isn't, sorry you must not know what the definition of arrogant is. The definition of arrogant is: "an exaggerated sense of importance". Is he exaggerating saying he is the dope rapper that influences not just music but fashion, film, and other forms of entertainment? No he isn't. Just heed this call if you have it in you! 
Kanye West is just speaking to those who know that their destiny lies in a world that has not been yet lived in. Say what you will but I know "Jesus Walks" take from that what you will.-thegqlife
