Deen is the Nigerian Michael Bivins. So I woke up the the residue of niggas on my Twitter TL talking cracking jokes about something that sounded vaguely Drake related. So I did some crack research and VOILA – a new Drake single. Ironically titled, if I might add. If I’m being honest, I was kinda […]

Consider this Deen’s dedication to those flooded in Toronto. Well I’ll be damned; the Canadians are coming. Remember how I wrote about Drake’s tax write off, Pndoor, the other day and took a blind stab at describing something I labelled the ‘Toronto Sound’? Oh, you don’t remember? Well, fuck you too then – that’s rude. […]

Deen doesn’t speak Canadian. Before we get into this, I’mma just go ahead and make it clear that I won’t be typing that silly moniker out like that ever again. It’s a matter of principle. I don’t know what’s going on with the Canadian educational system, but it’s shitty ettiquet to type in ALLCAPSWITHOUTSPACESLIKESOMESORTOFLOUDCUNT, so […]

Deen remains trippy. For those of you who’ve been paying attention, you’re aware that I’ve probably been listening to all things Freddie Gibbs. After all, he dropped 2 singles and a video in the last week or so. Oh and he decided to drop his album 3 weeks early once it leaked. But a few […]

Deen would like a moment of national pause after staring at the cover. Everyday, I alternately thank and curse Al Gore for inventing these internets of ours. After all, the internet is the only reason why you poor souls are subjected to this shitty prose because if I’m being completely honest there’s no way I’d […]

Deen also enjoys “Bobby Cox.” I imagine that since this project is called ‘Chipper Jones, Vol.2‘,  there’s a ‘Vol.1′ floating around out there. In fact, I have the aforementioned project, but at the time I started writing this mess I hadn’t listened to it yet, so for all intents and purposes we’ll consider this Joey […]

Deen once ghost-wrote for Consequence. So everyone’s favorite melodramatic rapper came back over the weekend and he’s mad and militant and here to scare corporations, rich (read: white) people and Illuminati theorists alike. Simultaneously, he’s providing “deep” commentary on materialism, consumerism and capitalism with a light gloss of metal and GOOD Summer retreads. And if […]

Excuse Deen’s reserved praise. I pay French Montana way too much attention. I insist that I don’t fancy the bulk of his music, but somehow, someway, I write some shit about every other single he drops. Then again, it’s not my fault that the man is so active lately. He’s going to drop his debut […]

Deen’s been smoking all night. For the first time in a really long while, I’m listening to a Ludacris song that doesn’t completely bore me. Of all the rapper turned mogul/actor/whatever the fuck else niggas have to do in order to plausibly claim that they don’t need to rap anymore to make money, Ludacris’ “fall” […]

Deen knows what you want. I don’t recall the exact time when Cassie lucked into that one random hit that put her on the scene, but my interest in her only really started when her nudes leaked after she traded up from Ryan Leslie to Diddy. Proof positive that a Harvard degree is the most […]
