Big Sean Finally, Finally Famous THE ALBUM! May 3rd

After realeasing the Finally Famous vol 3 mixtape and generating MAJOR buzz Big Sean's first studio album Finally Famous is set for release May 3rd under G.O.O.D Music/ DefJamLabel. 

Sean told Smoking Section via phone conference that the album is not complete yet but Kanye, Mike Posner, and Pharrell will make the final tracklist. 

He says new music is in the works with Curren$y and other artists.. possibly a BigSean&Curren$y mixtape?? Let's hope!!

I am really diggin this dude... His sound is fresh, unique, and cocky! I like that! He knows he's the shit! BOIII haha. His lyrics are bold and d irect. Some may argue that he's plain rude! Sean is the BadBoy Asshole that all the ladies want and all the guys want to be like.  If you don't have a sense of humor Big Sean is not for you..

Special Thanks to my friend Jonathan for puttin me on this dude!! (you happy now?)
 
Finally Famous 3 stays on repeat in my ear here are some of my fav tracks and his new single with Chris Brown "My Last"

Lupe's Show Did Not Go ON!!

So, Lupe Fiasco was booked to perform at the House Of Blues Chicago on Saturday night.  The Show apparently didnt go on till midnight.  Lupe was 4 hours late!!! According to concert goers. When Lupe finally showed up he did 5 songs and rushed through them!

 Lupe took to his twitter to explain" @LupeFiasco

 "To be clear to everyone that attended the House Of Blues Laser release thing in Chicago. It was NEVER supposed to be a show..."

"The promoters didn't stress to the public the fact that it was supposed to just be a party."


'I had NO hand in organizing the event. Nor did my team. I don't even know who the other performers were until the night before the event."

"As far as me being late I literally drove about 6 hours to get there and I ran out of gas around Springfield!!!! Shout to AAA 4 the save!!! "




"But anyways my name was on it so I'll take the "L" and rest assured that it will NEVER EVER happen again."

"I love my fans. I'm sorry u guys had to go thru some BS. Again me and my crew had NOTHING to do w/ how the event was ran or organized."


"Also all the money for the event from my side is and always was going to be donated to charity so atleast for me it was a free event"
This is a lesson learned. You hear House of Blues and you think Legit!! Right?? Wrong!! Make sure u fact check everything!! There are alot of thirsty promoters out here taking advantage of fans! Now I'm not sure but I believe that HOB is innocent in this matter.  (not completely) somebody dropped the ball and didn't get the contracts tight!!! Lupe is not at fault, cut him some slack fans! and remember like he said "SEE YALL IN 2 MONTHS FOR THE REAL SHOW" :)

Nerdy Boy Flow Childish Gambino

Thanks to my amazing friends who love hip-hop as much as I do, I was introduced to an amazing MC.  Donald Glover (Childish Gambino).  Some of you may know him as one of the hillarious writers on a little show called 30 Rock or on Community.  Well apparently he is an awesome M.C. 

I would describe his style only as different.  I assure you havent heard anything like this guy.  The thing that really attracted me to him is his beat selection.  Sampling Adele on one of my favorite Tracks "Do Ya Like" when the snare drops on this track you will understand why this kid is getting so much Buzz. 

Gambino Released his EP via his website Download Here
As of now I'm stuck on his mixtape Culdesac which was released in July of 2010. 
He is currently on tour.  Coming to a city near you!
Check this guy out!! His flow is very original and his beats are like nothing you've heard.  He rhymes about who he is and is not trying to be something he's not. He says rap is a hobby.  Bragging about the women, money, and power but making you love him at the same time!
