DJ Muggs & Planet Asia - “That’s What It Is”
Producer: Muggs
Album: Pain Language (August 2008)
Muggs & GZA. Premo & Royce. 9th & Buckshot. And now Muggs & Plan-Asia. You know, it’s interesting pairings like these that get some of us excited about this thing called hip-hop.
Lil Wayne - “I Got Money” (Feat T-Pain)
More lethargic v-pop from Weezyana, this time featuring the king of v-pop.
I guess this is Wayne’s way of convincing T-Pain that he’s not throwing rocks at the vocoder throne. Besides, you would think he’d be buying better beats with all that money he supposedly makes from guesting on people’s albums. This thing sounds more like a default Casio beat.
Stack Bundles - “Breakin’ Up”
Bundles returns from the grave just in time to break some poor chick’s heart.
Bun B - “Swing on ‘Em” (Feat. Lupe Fiasco)
Lupe does his best “Look, mom, I can rock a southern beat!” expression on this one.
You gotta love it though. II Trill hits shelves on May 13th.

Ayah & Skyzoo - “Passin’ Me By”
Ayah and Skyzoo put their spin on Pharcyde’s 1992 classic of the same title with mixed results. Let’s just say the original was way better.
Buff1 - “Beat the Speakers up”
Album: There’s Only One (August 5th, 2008)
Producer: Vaughan T of The Lab Techs
After I posted Buff1’s “Beat the Speakers up” video yesterday, his people hit me with the mp3. I thought you might be interested, since the song is indeed a banger. Enjoy

Talib Kweli & Chester French - “Fall Back” (ft Res)
As he does every now and then, Kweli proselytizes on the essence of resilience.
[Shout out to R.A. @ Interscope]
N*E*R*D* - Everyone Nose (Remix) [Feat CRS & Pusha T]
Here’s the requisite CRS remix of “Everyone Nose.” Lupe was riding the beat a little too hard, to my utmost surprise. What doesn’t surprise me, on the other hand, is that P to the Usha had the best verse.
[Props to Dan for the heads up]
Like we always do at this time…
Just because I haven’t set eyes on my mom for nearly a decade doesn’t mean we can’t have fun on Mother’s Day. Make a playlist of these beautiful songs for that special woman today and she’ll cherish the gesture all year long.
Without further ado, I give you Rizoh’s hand-picked mother’s day hip-hop playlist.
You’re all welcome.
New Busta Rhymes
Busta Bus rhyming over some new beats, including The Roots’ “Get Busy” and Young Buck’s “Driving Down the Freeway.” These should hold you fiends over till July 1st, the official street date for his I’m Blessed CD.
