Where The Music Is Poppin' Like Fish Grease
Well isn’t this fitting. (Who dat.)
Da Hot Spitta just dropped this mixtape, and since I do kinda like his stuff now (I couldn’t feel that stuff at all before) I’m bringing it to you in a timely fashion.

I actually remember stumbling across Young Lyxx on Myspace probably like a year or so ago, and actually reaching out to him to get some tracks to post. Can’t remember exactly why that fell through but good music always seems to find a way of making it’s way around. Young Lyxx and Mums FP are on the first of a series of leaks from the Governed By Loyalty: Heavy Rotation Sh!t mixtape coming out. Via Kei of Governed by Loyalty:
GovernedByLoyalty.com is a lifestyle blog based in ATL where I basically blog the shit I like and support. We cover the latest in events, music occasionally fashion. Each month we’re doing a monthly tape to feature artists we support. Some tracks are old, some new and a few mainstream. Either way, a good mix provided by DJ FU to put in your iTunes.
Sadly, we couldn’t fit all the music I wanted on there, but just so you know, keep an eye on the following artists: Yelawolf, Hollyweerd, FKi, Grip Plyaz, Alley Boy, Sean Falyon, Young Lyxx, Money Makin’ Nique, Reese (LA/ATL), Niko Villamor, Priceless the Kid, Siya, Lucci Lu (New Orleans), The Canz, PILL, Muffy, FatKidsBrotha, Skewby (Memphis), PAT (Memphis), Mach 5, Nemo and probably more that escape me right now.
Ok denn.
See what I just did there…
Aiight, so I’ma try (keyword try) to start doing this new thing on the blog, called Why I Hate. In all honesty, I dislike a lotta sh*t, and though some of it may seem like just me hatin’ most of it comes from real places.
So first up Nicki Lewinski Minaj.
1. She calls herself Nicki Lewinski.
There are many things one should be proud of, but being the unattractive intern who tops off the president and saves the remnants, aint it.
2. It’s hard for me to take her seriously.
This reason should be number one, because most of the other reasons can somehow point back to this. She ganked Lil Kim’s swag steez, calls herself a Barbie, and just seems a lil….off.
3. She sets the women’s movement back a couple hundred years.
Whatever Pocahontas, Susan B. Anthony, and Beyonce’ did for women’s rights, Nicki Minaj will surely undo by the end of the 2010.
4a. She actually has dope punchlines and even good songs sometimes, i.e. “I aint sleepin when I say I’m in my dream car.”
This bothers me, because most of the time I can’t listen long enough to hear them. Do you know how long it took me to hear that dream car line? Years! A long time! And “I Get Crazy” is my joint up until the beat changes and Wayne comes in. It’s like you can never get a full verse, and/or song from her that’s good.
4b. These good lines are followed subsequently by equally odd and/or whack lines. “I’m hot…I think it’s time to put the rice in.”
*See last sentence from 4a.*
5. She makes funny noises while simultaneously making funny faces.
*See reason number 2*
All these reasons aside, I think there’s still hope for Nicki Minaj. Supposedly she’s toned down her image a little bit, but the fact remains young girls and young women look up to this chick. I’m not a fan by any means, but I can see that she has a place in the game right now. Hopefully at the very least re-open the doors and inspire the new Missys, MC Lytes, and Jean Graes of the world.
In any event, I figured I’d let you be the judge. Check out this new mixtape called Barbie’s World and let me know how you feel in the comments. Listen to it streaming after the jump. Foxxfiles on the heads up.
