Now this song has been out for awhile.  I have been bumping it for awhile.  And thanks to my dude Star Slinger it is fiyah, which is good cause the rap game been damp for awhile.

In related news, Dreezy F Baby has been beefing with Chris Brown.  I guess he has been poppin’ bottles, throwin‘ bottles, but not drinkin‘ bottles.  And that kind of has me upset.  C’mon, remember the seventh commandment:  “Thou shall not waste nor spill one drop of alcohol.”  F’real Drake.  This madness has to stop!

Kanye West – “Forever West” F. Vega Choir (Urban Noize Remix)

Holy smokes. This tasty little hors d’oeuvre is Kanye’s verse from Drake’s track “Forever”, laid down on top of Vega Choir’s cover of Radiohead’s “Creep”. The mix was cooked up by Urban Noize, the folks who brought you the Jay-Z and Lana Del Fail jam. It’s like all of Kanye’s doucheness is soaked in a throaty olive oil that melts his brash approach into a succulent two minute bite of chewy baguette.

Love me some food analogies.
