Here's the new mixtape from Plies and DJ Scream, featuring his "Boosie" track that was released earlier this week. Enjoy.

I was listening to 8Ball and MJG's Livin' Legends album a few days ago and realized just how underrated they still are, even though they've been out damn near 20 years.  Most of us in the south are well aware of their significance, but as a whole, I do believe that the hip hop world forgets the contributions they made.  So in honor of one of the best hip hop groups ever, here's one of my faves.

Official video for "Magic" off of B.o.B's The Adventures of Bobby Ray album that's in stores now. 

I get questions all the time from artists wanting to know what exactly the differences are between BDS and Mediabase.  They know they should have one or the other, but don't know why. No more excuses, here's what you should know, and its quite simple.

BDS:

This system uses computers to listen to the large stations throughout the country, Nielsen Broadcast Data Systems is the world's leading provider of airplay tracking for the entertainment industry. It's free to submit your music to BDS for tracking. You do not need a bar code to register with BDS.  This is a necessity if you are looking for a deal.  Labels need to see that the radio stations are playing your music.

Mediabase:

This system is similar in concept to BDS, but instead of using computers to listen, it uses people. Mediabase is owned by Clear Channel, the largest owner of radio stations (1200) in the world. MediaBase and BDS both monitor about 80% of the same stations; therefore you may need to get both in order to get proper coverage.

Any questions? Please feel free to leave them in the comments section.

I interviewed B. Pumper a few days ago, and he talked about how he met Montana Fishburne and the spots on her ass. Then he talked about his rap skills, meeting 50 Cent and wanting to sign him as a solo artist, and why he went at Juelz Santana. When I asked him about responding to Fabolous' tweets about him, he said "he can get it too". Full interview will be available Friday.

Wiz made this song in honor of his hometown Steelers team just in time for football season.  I hope they show their appreciation by at least playing a few times at the home games.  Produced by Stargate.
