"Love" by Rittz & Tech N9ne

"I started and reading and lost my buzz, I was at a loss for words/

A bunch of paragraphs tellin' me he's salty, I never call em and cut em off like loss of love/

That couldn't be more false, but it's always my fault they drunk and mad at life, I'm the villain, the scapegoat/

Really they preventin they true feelings, they all about the money they just wanna ride the tail of my rain coat/"

"Bounce" by Rittz ft. Twista [Music Video]

"They wasn't with me when I traveled down this gravel road/

GC, I could never have my pass revoked/

So step up and you a dead duck/

Get your head bust, looking like a chef just cracked a yolk/"

This song is beautiful. And the visuals are pretty dope too. I have yet to fully listen through Rittz' latest album, "Next to Nothing", but I've listened to this song at least 1000 times and I'm still not sick of it. No exaggeration. Check it!

"White Rapper" by Rittz [Music Video]

"Now the rap game is flooded with rappers/
From every nationality, a ton of em crackers/
The fact that I finally came up is miraculous/
20 years later my name is becoming established/"

White Jesus has been very generous as of lately. This is the 2nd set of visuals for his upcoming album, "Next To Nothing" which hits shelves September 9. This one's a bit deeper than "Profit" and "Turn Down", but it's still got that hype energy. Can't wait to hear the rest of this album. Check it.

"Profit" by Rittz ft. Yelawolf & Shawty Fatt

"When I was young, ain't no kids out carolling around the holidays, they were pistol carrying/

In despair, gettin' paper was imperative, when reaching in my pocket, only thing there was lint/

But like a ??? don't wanna spare a cent, we suited up in all black and a pair of 10's/

I ran up in the local baller's house, I lay it down, mothafucka show me where it is/"

Here's some Slumerican shit. Rittz is dropping "Next to Nothing" on September 9th, and as far as I can remember this is the first official release from it. Although I didn't really like the buzzing in the chorus, I thought the rest of it was pretty dope. Rittz kills it as usual but Yelawolf and Shawty Fatt both had pretty strong verses as well. Check it.

BET Hip Hop Awards Cypher ft. Jon Connor, Rittz, Wax, Rapsody & Emis Killa

 

I didn't watch the BET Hip Hop Awards because I checked all of the nominees for all of the categories and decided it probably wouldn't interest me. But some of these cyphers are dope. This is just one that I liked, but you can click here if you'd like to check out the other ones. I thought Wax, Rittz and Jon Connor killed this shit. Check it.

"Seen Some Things" by Caskey ft. Rittz

"So sick of feeling disconnected/
Every day I wake up pissed, feeling misdirected/
You ever been lost like you didn't know the reason you was still here/
And you getting flashbacks in the wheelchair/"

I originally checked this track out to hear Rittz' verse, but I was feelin' Caskey's parts as well. I ended up checkin' his "Transient Classics" mixtape, and a few songs aren't really the kind of rap music I'm into, but there's a few songs I like. Regardless of it all, he's got some dope lyrics and his flow's nice. I'm just not a fan of some of the clubbish beats which kinda ruin certain songs for me. But you can click here to download the mixtape to listen for yourself since my opinion doesn't mean shit lol.

Backroom Freestyle @ 106 & Park by Rittz

"Reppin for the underground until I'm in the graveyard/
They've been rooting for me on the TV screen/
White, got soul like a BB King, a rockstar, like I'm B Springsteen/
You wanna battle? Ring the bell homie, ding ding ding/"

White Jesus was recently featured on BET's 106 & Park to spit some heat in The Backroom. I didn't really like the beat, but as always, Rittz spittz some crazy shit. They should feature this guy on TV more often.

"SourceTV Exclusive Freestyle" by Rittz

White Jesus has risen! He recently visited The Source magazine and dropped a fuckin sick freestyle. This acapella verse starts off slow, which caught me off guard. Can't really recall him rapping this slow before, but it still sounds good. But this muhfucka couldn't help but to speed it up and end it with a bang. No lyrics for this one either cuz it's not even 1 minute worth of lyrics. You're gonna have to listen to this shit!

"Switch Lanes" by Rittz ft. Mike Posner [Music Video]

"You tryna say you ain't impressed, please, save it woman/
Got you all up in the seat, getting naked, wantin/
To make out, but you better not get no make up on him/
These car jackers wanna follow me then take it from me/"

This was one of the first tracks released from "The Life and Times of Jonny Valiant". It's a good track to use for a single that'll appeal to radio listeners. It's got a smooth vibe that could totally be played on the air, and on top of that, Rittz kills his lyrics. Mike Posner did his thing as well and sets the mood for the chorus with his soft toned voice. Here's the visual for the song, which is actually a good video compared to a few that Rittz has released lately. Check it.

"Say No More" by Rittz ft. Krizz Kaliko & Tech N9ne

"Backstage doin' blow with a snow bunny/
Rappers that you think's dope, we poke fun at/
But don't come at me wrong, homie you don't want it/
These coyote dudes too slow for this road runner/"

Alright. So I've probably posted every song from this album that's been posted to Strange Music's official YouTube page. And as long as they post em, I'm gonna post em. This album is nuts. It's crazy. Ever since it was released on April 30th, I haven't switched the cd outta my car. It's such a great album when it comes to beat selection, guitar solos, turntablism, lyrics, flow, choruses, everything. Probably the most complete album I've heard in 2013 so far. This track right here features the two main Strange Music frontmen, Krizz Kaliko and Tech N9ne. They all have dope verses, the chorus is tight, and like I mentioned earlier, the scratching and guitar solo sound tight. Check this shit out. Ye-uh-yeeeuh!

"Wastin' Time" by Rittz ft. Big K.R.I.T.

"Kids my age done graduated college, some married, some had some kids/
Most of 'em have credit cards and cars and large houses, me? I'm on that rappin' shit/
Which means I don't gotta job, I just gotta couple hundred dollars and a sack, and a pack of cigs/
Still smoke with the crew but it ain't fun like it used to be, we get high, we don't laugh, we bitch/"

Ever since the day this album was released I've wanted to share pretty much every song from the tracklist. However, the only way to do that was to share a link that would eventually get removed from YouTube due to copyright purposes. So thanks to Strange Music, I'm finally able to share a song that won't get removed later on. This track right here is a collab between two very distinctive southern artists who make a great duo. Both Rittz and K.R.I.T. had sick verses over top of this mellow down south instrumental. I like the content of this track and all of the elements compiled into it make it a perfect track to smoke a blunt and cruise around to. Yee-uh-yeeeuh!

"Like I Am" by Rittz

"Me and you are the opposite of identical/
You just cocky, I'm confident, I'm an animal/
And I plan to go far with this rap shit,
you the type to do the quit and give up on 'em like D'Angelo/"

The life and times of Jonny Valiant are slowly being revealed. Today Rittz dropped a video for his newest release, "Like I Am", off his upcoming album under Strange Music. The beat to this song is so sick. It's got that grimy down south feel that makes you wanna get a coat of candy paint on the whip. The videos sick, but it's a little random with the whole front yard scene. The one chick with the tattoos helps make the video a whole lot better too, even though all she did was sit there lol. Anways check this slumerican shit!

"For Real" by Rittz

"Taste the marmalade, in fact I'm winning, got you jelly/
Your hype is ??? and you're record isn't selling/
 Your pride got you too competitive and scared of failing/
You chillin in the club and they like Rittz is in the building/"

A week or two ago Strange Music released the Independent Powerhouse Sampler to start off their tour. Within the sampler, fans were given a few full tracks, and plenty of snippets from pretty much every upcoming Strange Music album planned for 2013. One of the full tracks, also one of my favourites, was by White Jesus himself, entitled "For Real". I think he murked it, but auto-tune kinda murked him. Either way, for the sound he was going for, he fucking killed it. Today I seen that he dropped a music video for it to provide some hype for his upcoming album, "The Life and Times of Jonny Valiant". This is gonna be a fuckin' awesome album, I can't wait. Check it!

"Leo Getz" by Wrekonize ft. Rittz

  "The homie Wrek just wrecked it/

And killed the beat, I guess he wanted me to ressurect it/

I could feel the speed like a needle that's full of meth, injected/

In my neck, but fuck it, it help me get respective/"

Yesterday, Wrekonize from Mayday released his newest project, "The Rooftops Mixtape". I haven't listened to many of the tracks off of it yet, but this one featuring Rittz is fucking sick. The mixtape says it's presented by Mayday and DJ Burn one, so I'm not sure who produced the beat. But god damn, that beat is raw. Wrekonize killed it, but I gotta hand it to Rittz man. He bodied this shit. All in all it's a pretty ill track. The mixtape boasts features from the likes of Rittz, Bernz, Blueprint & Joell Ortiz. If you'd like to listen to the whole mixtape, you can stream/download it here.
