Jadakiss def had he best verse but everyone was still spittin...what do you think?



Cory Gunz def might as well as rapped by himself on this one. Listen closely to his last couple of bars...



I think Hurricane Chris snuck in lol, he was not supposed to be there. Bun B & Q-Tip were nice but Knaan came through with some serious wordplay.

Late Text

On top of the success of Tha Carter III as well as winning "Lyricist of The Year" at this years' BET Awards, Dwanye Carter can add a newborn baby boy to his list of blessings.

The birth took place this afternoon at Christ Hospital in Cincinnati. No information has been given on the baby's weight or name. Also the mother's name has not been disclosed either. 

I hope the birth of his son can make him finally put that styrofoam cup down...you have to let it go sometime Wayne.

Congrats
