Gutter Music – RnB, Hip Hop and rap News

We ain’t forget bout you…we patiently waiting!

About a week or two ago I came across an editorial article from XXL on ‘The Most Hardbody MC in the Game‘ and to much of my approval, i agreed to a certain extent. Sean P should be considered one the hardest emcees in the game to many, whether it’s just him or his days with Heltah Skeltah, O.G.C & the Boot Camp Clik. But truly, in my opinion, I have yet to hear anybody fuckin’ with Immortal Technique. You want to talk about Hard-Bodied? Try having a whole activist movement behind your back, dedicated to Prison Reform and legalizing the Mary Jane, or a grassroots organization named G.A.M.E dedicated to providing health care to underground rappers (thoro!).

No sir, dude is definitely not your typical ‘Political/Jehovah Witness/Public Enemy‘ type rapper (nothing wrong with that). He’d probably break your face in, considering he did spend 3 years and few months behind bars. That, and a good friend of mine that went to school with him remembered Felipe as a ‘not so nice muthafucka that would not want to fuck with’.

Emcee wise, I thought dude was okay for a while, considering I’m a Huge Lox fan, so nothing he could’ve said was going to warrant a debate. Plus I had issues with a some of his political beliefs, mostly issues with political conspiracy theories and certain aspects of religion. But I can’t knock his overall philosophy towards poverty, racism, classism, and just life in general because it’s something I completely can fuck with to a degree. But it wasn’t until I heard a track that wasn’t even his own (was a collabo, but he ended it) that made me dropped jaw (no homo!).

Outerspace ft. Immortal Technique - Angels of Death (I shit you not, this man destroyed this fuckin’ track. This is how you literally kill someone else’s track.)

After hearing this, I went back, re-listened to majority of his material, everything from Revolutionary V. 1 to 2, and everything in between with the mixtapes. Till this day, I ain’t fucking with anyone talking bout hard-body until they hear this man. Till then, keep a look out for his long-awaited for album, The Middle Passage!

From Revolutionary Vol. 1:
Immortal Technique - Dance with the Devil (My dude, Joe Budden did a somewhat similar version to this, which I liked–3 Sides to a Story–but it ain’t fucking with this)

From Revolutionary V. 2:
Immortal Technique - Point of No Return

Some dudes just be about being hard…and some dudes ARE just hard.

Peace and Hip-Hop!

– In case you were wondering who Monica picked in her “Love All Over Me” video, well the answer has been revealed in a new full length clip that was unveiled last night.

Last week we were left with a cliffhanger where Monica who could not choose between rapper Maino and L.A. Laker Shannon Brown so she asked her fans to pick her instead.

And the winner is Shannon Brown with 73% of the votes. Indeed the young wealthy baller wins over the old thug who just got out of prison. Even though nothing has changed in clip, it still looks beautiful and refreshing.
Are you happy with the choice?
