Suicide Ride/ Marvwon-Mr Hash/ song review

Rating: 4 stars
Straight from the hellhole that some call « Detroit hood », Marvwon of the Fat Killaz and Mr Hash of I-Mac decided to combine their original and incredible talents in order to create their overheated thriller.
The listener is rapidly introduced into an explosive atmosphere. Detroit is the place where bad meets evil, but also the place where talents from different areas meet to work together. This is how East and West/Southwest put their differences aside and combine their talents in order to drop a bomb.
Overheated speech, untouchable flow deliveries, nice instrumentals: Marvwon and Mr Hash master all elements of their artistic collaboration.
You’d better shoot yourself in the head than fucking with them. Lyrical bullets will put you down with no mercy while claps punctuate the rhythmic tracks. Marvwon and Mr Hash will rip emcees with big egos off and beat their asses down.
The well handled track is the example of the kind of Detroit rap I really like to hear. It intelligently mixes up offensiveness, lyrical dexterity, good instrumentals, vocals and beats.
The track is up for download on Detroit rap, so don’t sleep on it!

E. Lee from the D: bringing to you the 7 Mile flavor

In Ya All Don’t Know …about the flow, E. Lee addresses to the rappers who are tempted to sell Cds rather than putting all their efforts into their passion for hip hop. Of course, an emcee needs to feed his family with his CD sales. Keyboard sounds and drums introduce E. Lee’s nice lyrical performance that is enlightened by his nice flow delivery.
Pop For Me Mommy introduces the listener into a lighter atmosphere made of electronic sounds in the background. Nod your head to the track and enjoy the club song. Picture yourself into a strip club where things get kinky in no time.
The rhythmic song is well handled by an artist whose flow goes faster than the wind.
Soft vocals, rhythmic beats and E. Lee’s incredible flow will catch you in the middle of a verbal hurricane. Those are the elements that will define E. Lee’s Some People song. E. Lee reps the Murda Mitten with confidence. I highly recommend you Some People.
 
Hey Ma is built on rhythmic flute sounds. The « shake it » song is melodic and most of you will probably enjoy the astute combination of soft instrumental, rhythmic beats and E. Lee’s vocal skills. Hey Ma is an obvious invitation to dance along that you can’t and probably won’t refuse.
E. Lee is an original Detroit artist that is definitely worth your attention. Listen to his music here.

Eminem won’t face charges in alleged strip club altercation (Detroit Free Press)

By BEN SCHMITT
FREE PRESS STAFF WRITER
Eminem won’t have to beat the rap over allegations that he assaulted a Royal Oak man recently at a strip club: The alleged victim dropped charges over the weekend.
Detroit Police Spokesman James Tate said Monday that the 48-year-old man withdrew his charges over the weekend for unknown reasons. Tate said the investigation is closed.
The man, who identified himself as Miad J., told local television stations that Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Mathers III, assaulted him around 1:15 a.m. Thursday in a bathroom at the Cheetah strip club on 8 Mile in Detroit.
Cheetah’s representatives confirmed last week that a fight occurred at the club. They also said last week Eminem was involved in the incident, but would not comment further. They declined comment when contacted Monday.

Rap superstar Eminem may face criminal charges for Assault in Strip

By Jim Kouri(AXcess News) New York – Rap superstar and budding actor Eminem was involved in an assault at a Detroit-area strip club, according to police.
The fist fight erupted at a nightspot — Cheetah –  on Thursday. A man claims he was punched in the face by Eminem in the club’s restroom.
Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Mathers III, and his entourage bodyguards were in the restroom when a fan, who police said is 48-years old, entered the restroom and started talking to Mathers. When one of the star’s bodyguards intervened, the man told him to lighten up. At that point the man claims Mathers punched him four or five times in the face.
Police say they will talk to Mathers about the incident before making a decision about filing assault charges against him.
A few months ago, Eminem’s best friend and fellow rapper, “Proof,” was shot to death in a Detroit nightclub.
Proof, whose real name was DeShaun Holton, got into an altercation at the “CCC” nightclub which quickly turned deadly when gunshots rang out in the celebrity nightspot, according to the Detroit police detectives investigating the case.
Proof was shot in the head, as was a second club patron. Both were pronounced dead on arrival.
Eight Mile Road serves as the boundary between the black Detroit inner city and the white suburbs. Detroit rap artists claim it is the birthplace of modern hip-hop. Eminem’s 2002 motion picture “8 Mile,” featured 8 Mile Road. Proof was in that movie and played the part of Lil’ Tic.

Guilty Simpson: a gifted and passionate emcee

Guilty Simpson’s music is the reflection of the Detroit emcee’s personality: in fact, Guilty Simpson is one of the straightest persons I got the chance to meet on the Detroit rap board. Integrity means a lot to this person, and that’s the way his music appears to the listener’s ears. Guilty Simpson describes the streets of Detroit with a poignant sense of reality.
Guilty Simpson has worked with the greatest Detroit acts like RIP J.Dilla, Obie Trice, Cysion, Trick Trick, D12 and many more.
Special is built on distorted keyboard sounds. Guilty Simpson jumps in, with strong lyrical and vocal weapons, ready to invite you into his world. Let him describe the atmosphere of the streets, the gunshots and the hustle with his own words. Enjoy the realness, the skills, the rapid flow delivery and the good dose of offensiveness contained in the Special song.
Black Milk is a nice club song based on strong instrumentals and rhythmic beats. Picture the atmosphere of the club, imagine the GoGo dancers.
Guilty Simpson flows with confidence and his song is highly enjoyable.
Jungle Love Guilty is another raw track. Tambourines, drums and sirens punctuate the rhythm while Guilty Simpson offers his listeners an ill flow delivery. I recommend you the well handled track.
Let’s Smoke One is an invitation to chill out before going back to the harshness of street life. Let’s Smoke One and let’s make it happen in the end.

Money will help you to take it to the next level, won’t and can’t buy you love, though…

Most people have a wrong relationship with money, whether they love it or hate it. The persons who have a strong hatred towards it, tend to stay poor or often experience big difficulties in handling their budget. The greedy ones, who show huge love for the banknotes, usually think that money will allow them to buy everything and to solve any kind of problem.

Both categories of people are totally wrong in their way of considering money, as far as I am concerned.

Catholic Church has taught people for centuries to stay poor and to live a miserable life in order to gain paradise- for its own interests, taking advantage of the situation and using people’s money to reach political power.

Hating money will lead you NOWHERE. It is a matter of fact we all need it in our every day life, even for our most insignificant needs like eating and clothing, for instance.

Living like Jesus with limited means is an utopia in our modern world. Stop dreaming and don’t let religious people brainwash you. They act as if they despised it, but they use it a lot more than you naïve people think.

On the other hand, greedy people who know how to make money should consider that money might solve some of their problems, but not ALL of them.

Wealth can cause a lot of problems too. When you become rich, it is hard to make a difference between real friends and those who are running after each of your pennies. Money can’t buy you true love, nor will it allow you to build up some true friendships.

True friends are those who considered you as their friends when you were at the bottom and who never changed in their behavior towards you.

In fact, money should be considered as a useful tool. An exchange tool and a tool that allows you to step further with all of your projects, not less, not more. Take it for what it is: something that will allow you to go further.

Never forget that money can’t and will not replace human relationships.

It is good to wish wealth for yourself and your family. I myself consider wealth as a blessing. However, remember never to let wealth and money corrupt your heart!
