| MobbDeen: “Girls Like Beyonce,” Drake Rocks the Cradle | April 17, 2013 |
Deen knows he’s not alone. It’s a good thing that Drake is consistent. I’ve long been of the opinion that his best song to date remains the duet with The-Dream from his first album – ‘Shut It Down‘ – which is sorta surprising since I’m not sure if I think Drake can actually sing or […]
Deen is also NOT A NICE PERSON. So there’s this intervention-styled show on Oprah’s TV Network hosted by this ugly-faced round-headed woman named Iyanla Vanzant. I don’t remember how or why she’s popular amongst us blacks, but she kinda is. The shit’s called Iyanla, Fix My Life. Basically a bunch of dime-store psychology applied to […]
| MobbDeen: Big K.R.I.T’s “King Remembered In Time” | April 12, 2013 |
Deen scoffs at your slander. I’m fairly certain that this means that I’m an ungrateful shit, but I’m wondering why the fuck Big KRIT still feels the need to hand out free music in 2013. I get the whole industry mindset nowadays, but KRIT has more than paid his dues. So much that his retail […]
| MobbDeen: Tuxedo Funk And/Or How to Rate White R&B | April 3, 2013 |
Deen’s advice column is coming soon. From now on, every time that I write about R&B or pop music, I’ll be comparing it Justin Timberlake’s latest effort: The 20/20 Experience. “Why?” Because the distinct aroma of averageness leaking from that album makes it the perfect threshold for good vs. not good determination. Basically, if your […]
After the fiasco that is Wale, Deen had to throw his allegiance to some other rapper of Nigerian descent. Some of the more perceptive among you may have noticed that I don’t sleep much. I spend a lotta late hours deciding what pron to fap to and listening to music like some sorta creep. The […]
| MobbDeen: Bangladesh’s “Ponzi Scheme” Mixtape | March 19, 2013 |
Deen plans to review several other producer mixtapes this week as part of a proposed trilogy. We’ll see. I’m not sure if Bangladesh is underrated or not, but I don’t think he gets enough credit for his accomplishments – of which there are many. The fact that I feel the need to write a quick […]
| MobbDeen’s Top 10 Rappers in the Game | March 14, 2013 |
Deen’s #11, 12, 13, 14 & 15 is Dylan. I imagine that if you read this site or anything even remotely connected to the rap internets on a regular basis you’re aware of the fact that MTV dropped their 8th annual “Hottest” “MCs” in the game list. Obviously, folks have had an issue with this […]
Deen is higher than a pelican. I didn’t fuck with Jeezy’s music until he dropped The Recession back in 2008. Maybe that’s a slight exaggeration. It was really when “3AM” dropped that I was willing to allow that Jeezy was more than mere adlibs or that maybe being that mere adlibs wasn’t the worst thing […]
| MobbDeen: Sasha Go Hard’s Third Round Knockout | February 18, 2013 |
Deen survived All-Star Weekend in Houston. One of my favorite rappers working today is Sean Price. Yes, he of the unrelenting hilarity and goonery. A little while ago on Twitter, some innocent soul asked him about his favorite female rappers or a closely related question. In pure Sean P fashion, he responded, and I’m paraphrasing […]
| Mobbdeen: R.I.P. Tim Dog… | February 15, 2013 |
Deen is crying tears of Seagrams. This one hurts. Bad. I know that the last time we all heard about Tim Dog, he was on Dateline or Nightline doing some unsavory shit to some silly broad’s life savings, but I’m pretty sure that won’t be the way we remember the man – even if I […]
