Joell Ortiz - YAOWA (Mixtape Trailer)

'You're Actually One World Away' from me... YAOWA... That's what Joell Ortiz decided to call his next mixtape, a collaboration with DJ Green Lantern and Don Cannon. Ridiculous acronyms aside, I'm actually pretty hyped for this one. Joell's has been the most consistent out of the Slaughterhouse crew (Budden, Royce & Crook need to come out with some hot shit) and with that 'Nissan, Honda, Chevy' cut, has the ears of hip-hop. Along with the new mixtape, he put out a song about MY WIFE, Sanaa Lathan. I couldn't help but listen to what another dude has to say about my queen. Check out the loosie track and the trailer for YAOWA...


Joell Ortiz - Letter to Sanaa

HANDS OFF MY LADY, ORTIZ!!!

Joell Ortiz can BALL?!?!

Okay, remember the video above??? Yeah, I sure as hell do. Joe Budden and Joell Ortiz participated in a now infamous race, where Joell tried to get at least 50 headstarts in a losing effort to Budden. What's funny is how certain Joell was of his victory and his 'athletic ability'. I guess we have some semblance of proof today with the video below. Joell shows us that size really doesn't matter (well at least when it comes to passing a basketball) and puts on a decent show in the cage...

Dear Benzino

Benzino - Good Fellaz

No, no, no... Zino, have you lost your cotton picking mind? I thought writing this letter and that getting in that ass (pause) would be a feat of ultimate ease, but it still needed to be written. So you pronounce your disdain for blogs and the internet as a means for promoting music, and then send your music to blogs? That's like claiming to be a fair and balanced hip-hop magazine and having biased reviews for artists that you don't like!! Wait a minute, you already did that. Honestly, Zino, if your rap career wasn't over after your magazine got exposed and Eminem shat on you lyrically, it sure as hell isn't coming back any time soon. You're on the wrong side of 30 with NO buzz and never really had a rap career to speak of in the first place. Not to say that the track was whack (it was), but if you were going to come at someone you already lost to, you had to come harder than that. And what's good with dissing Slaughterhouse? If you were going for the numbers game, then you completely fucked up on this one. I can't even describe the internal laughter coming from my computer. I'll just end it the way you started it.

Another nail in the coffin of an already dead career...
