New Music: Miles Jones - Never Wrong (Produced by Boi 1da)
More T.dot sh-t. Check the plug:
"On October 12th Miles Jones will release the debut single “Never Wrong” produced by Boi 1da. The track is off Miles album, Runaway Jones which will be released early 2011 in the US through Musebox/EMI.
This Canadian collaboration is has already been making noise this year, with Miles placing songs on CSI and the Olympic soundtrack and Boi 1da producing Platinum/Grammy nominated records for the likes of Drake, Eminem, Bun B, Andre 3000, Kanye West and many more."

Music Video: Big Lean - Lock Who/Everywhere I Go (prod by Boi 1da)
I don't know if it's good or bad that Toronto 'The Good' has devolved enough that the artists here can actually make credible 'gangsta rap' videos now. Sigh....

New Music from Eminem....
The Relapse album may have disappointed many, including myself, but you sleep on Eminem at your peril!
Truth be told I've never been enough of a fan of Em that I played any of his albums with any kind of regularity but I acknowledge that his first three full lengths are significant works in hip hop and indisputably, he's one of the best to ever to do it on the mic and he could eat ANY MC you care to mention head to head: B.I.G., Jay, Nas, Rakim in his prime, 3-Stacks, Kane whomever. I stand by that statement.
Recent work by Em - cameos on Drake's "Forever", B.o.B.'s "Airplanes Part II", Lil Wayne's "Drop the World" and a venomous freestyle attacking Mariah Carey - suggested that post the lukewarm reaction to Relapse, despite is stellar sales, he knew he had retreat, re-evaluate and re-boot and was now ready to come back correct! The two latest tracks by him only bolster that thinking.
"Not Afraid", the first official single from his forthcoming Recovery album sees Slim Shady WRECKIN' a decent but sad-to-concede, kind of generic DJ Khaled-lite beat by Tdot beatsmith, Boi-1da while a freestyle over Drake's "Over" and Lloyd Banks' "Beamer, Benz of Bentley" demonstrates yet again that pound-for-pound, he can still make a very serious claim for G.O.A.T. status. Check 'em for yourself and tell me I ain't lying:

Video: Boi-1da Interview with Fli Pelican
"Toronto’s Boi-1da talk about wanting to experiment outside of hip-hop, Dr. Dre being his biggest influence, the faux-sample by Al Khaaliq that was used on “Over”, and says his boy wrote a hook for Jeezy to use on “Over” before Drake got it."
Video also featured new DTP artist, Small World.

Drake feat. Kanye West, Lil Wayne & Eminem – "Forever"
This is all over the blogs so I don't think I need to provide too much in the way of background except to say this is from the soundtrack to the Lebron James documentary, More Than A Game. All I will add is that this is unmastered and you should cop the final mastered version when it drops tomorrow (apparently not in stores now per the artwork above). Check it, if you just stepped out from under your rock for the first time today:
