Man, the Blueprint 3 is springing leaks all over the place. So you know what that means... *waiting patiently for full album*. Here's one featuring the up-and-coming, German-born, North Carolina-raised rapper J.Cole, the first artist to be signed to Jay-Z's label Roc Nation. Jigga also shouts out several different artists that have been relevant in the last 10 years.

Jay-Z - A Star Is Born (Feat. J.Cole)

Finally, we get a mastered version of Money to Blow. Also, we got another from the Blueprint 3 to share with you but shhhhhh... don't tell anyone!

Drake - Money to Blow (Feat. Birdman & Lil Wayne)

Jay-Z - Off That (Feat. Drake)

"We livin' like we Bulletproof... We Bang! Bang! bang! Bang!... We Loaded, cock, and aim to shoot!"

Raheem DeVaughn and Ludacris deliver a new track with an old school feel, reminiscent of Curtis Mayfield or Marvin Gaye. This one is waaaaaay too smooth to pass up...

Raheem DeVaughn - Bulletproof (Feat. Ludacris)

"You can run for life, you can stay here and fight... Just don't die, Today..."

I've been loving this track for over a month now. Its off illRoots, K-Salaam and Beatnick’s project Where The Streets Have No Name. Colin Munroe and Kweli (I think Talib's verse is recycled on here...) assist on this one. Does ever Bun B ever spit a wack verse??? He always makes his time count. Here's a tip, whatever you do today... JUST DON'T DIE!

Bun B - Don’t Die f. Talib Kweli & Colin Munroe (prod. Beatnick & K-Salaam)

I am always on the hunt for interesting and inspiring artwork.  I came across this and being that Mos Def is one of my all time favorite artists, I thought it was so ill (yeah, I still say ill when the time calls for it)!  I didn’t decide to post it until I realized that the words were actually lyrics to one of Mos Def’s songs (going through my Mos Def collection right now).

Here's one from the Foreign Exchange duo called "House of Cards", which features Muhsinah. The video features couple who are arguing in a car that crashes, causing the death of the girlfriend. That, in turn, sends the man was driving the car (Nicolay) into depression, making him want to commit suicide because of overwhelming grief. Its one of my favorite tracks off of the group's 2nd LP, Leave It All Behind, an album that people continue to sleep on. Anyway, press play, set back, and enjoy FE's ode that reminds us all that you reap what you sow...

*Waiting for J1S to say "BOUT TIME YOU POSTED SOMETHING YA BASS!"*

This record leaked early Saturday morning & lets just say Wale wasn't all that happy to find out it got out. This was a big record for Wale, matter of a fact he's been Twit'in about this feature for some time now. I don't really rock with Jazmine Sullivan to strong on the window bashing tip because somebody would die if my windows or tires ever got slashed or broken, straight up! but she's dope live in concert. Cool & Dre produced the track. Look out Attention: Deficit, when it hits stores on October 20th.

This song goes hard! Wayne probably has the weakest verse out of everyone. I'm not sure who had the top verse truthfully. Because I haven't heard Eminem come this hard in a long time! But it's something about Drake's verse... I got a thing for pure unadulterated ish talking!! Hey, what you want me to do... I'm sorry! lol But I'll let you decide who had the top verse. But this track is for the forthcoming LeBrick James documentary, More Than a Game.

I normally don't really rock with Bobby Creekwater, but I like this song. He doesn't even sound like he's from Atlanta does he but here's proof?

I don't really care for Estelle rapping (if that's what you want to call it). But Ludacris' verse was solid & you know John Legend is going to do his thing. They sampled Lionel Richie's "All Night Long" by the way.

This song makes me want to put on a all black Braves fitted & a black hoody & ride around Atlanta in the middle of November with my tinted windows half down, plotting on doing something I could get 25 to life for!

SideBar - It's Drake's song. But Drake already got some love (pause) earlier on the LBJ song. Hence the Nipsey Hussle picture.

I know your a little taken back with me posting a song with Shawty Lo AND Gucci Mane on it! But it's entitled "Atlanta, GA"! Hopefully the Ludacris feature will make you feel a little better. Or maybe the picture with Gabrielle in it will do it....hmmm!

I love my Iphone and I love Madden. But I don't really think I like the two together! But if you do, EA is bringing the Madden NFL franchise to the iPhone. The game is set to hit the iPhone on September 10. The controls for the game include a virtual joystick on the left along with other controls on the right.The game is said to look more like Madden for the Nintendo DS than what you get on the Xbox 360 or PS3. Receivers are apparently color coded by how open they are and the graphics look cool. You'll all have to wait until opening day for the NFL season to see what the game is really like. I think I'll stick with playing Madden on the PS3!

Maybe you had a great weekend.... or maybe a horrible one. Maybe you met someone new. Maybe you stayed home all day. Maybe you just found out your getting cheated on. Maybe your having a case of the Mondays. Maybe you're laying in the bed typing up this post from your Iphone 3000, because you have a head cold (pause) & you feel like crap! Either way I'm sure you would much rather be doing something else, with somebody else. How about a trip to South Beach, Miami)?! To bad your broke, alone & still sick! Either way you can still look at some beautiful pictures shot by Ms. Newyorka, from her trip. Enjoy.

SideBar - Get Away is a new series of posts I'm going to start doing of pictures from trips out of town. If you have anything pictures from any of your trips that you would like featured on Get Away, feel free to contact me through email or what have you. Hopefully I'll keep this going...unlike Bridging The Gap.

I just recently started to listen to Donnis. I love the fact that artists are putting out album quality mixtapes (ie. Wale, Cudi, Drake). But Donnis (& Draft) is probably one of the hottest QUALITY rappers coming up out of Atlanta. Enjoy.

SideBar - I can't lie, I was a little salty when I found out the name of his mixtape was called Diary of an ATL Brave because some times I call myself "The ATL Brave One" in my fantasy sports leagues....but that's neither here or there. Click the link!

SideBar To My SideBar - You do realize the last two up and coming artists (Wale & Kid Cudi) to get the 10 Deep stamp blew up afterward right?

Allegedly this is a leaked pre-release shot of Apple’s website featuring the new MacBook Touch tablet device. It looks like the Macbook Touch has iPhone Apps and OS X apps running on the same screen, in which case we’ll be able to use the App Store, and run the best of OS X on the new Macbook Touch. Could it be?

I've told you how dope Dom Kennedy is before, but BJ The Chicago Kid is the truth as well. Matter of a fact BJ is the homie just off the twit below. But seriously BJ The Chicago Kid is a pure talent. He sounds like a artist my dad would listen to (in a good way) back when he was my age. Let's just say he's a "real soulful dude". R&B dudes now a days are so caught up in "pop locking" & baby oil, that they don't "sang" anymore. If you don't believe me check out his site ListenToBJ.com. Make sure you check out his rendition of "Don't Say Goodnight"! Almost forgot to tell you that he sings background for Anthony Hamilton & he's been on the last two seasons of Maestro Knows.

It looks like Sony continue their traditional system slimming with the announcement of their new Playstation 3 Slim. The top-notch video game system will now retail for $300, while still maintaining the same feature as its bulkier counterpart. Gizmodo breaks down some of the juicy details:
