Bittersweet

Charles Hamilton recently got dropped from Interscope Records, I guess this was bound to happen considering his string of mishaps. Over the past few months I would follow his numerous mixtapes with not many new tracks and bad production. I would also hear of him losing numerous battles. He was dropping wierd blogs like that J. Dilla helped produce his record 'This Perfect Life', which was impossible due to the fact that J. Dilla passed away in 2006. Anyways after being booted from Interscope Charles decided to leak his album 'This Perfect Life'. The sad thing is it's a good album with a decent amount of work put into it. I found it ironic how many rappers are spitting on Suzanne Vega's 'Tom Diner' as Charles did by sampling the song in 'Ghosts'.

This song is also sampled by Drake in his song 'Juice'.

I beleive that the first group to sample this beat however was Felt in their song actually titled 'Suzanne Vega'.

Another cool thing about this song is that the 'Tom's Diner', Suzanne Vega is talking of is the same restaurant that is used in Seinfeld, the one the cast frequents in almost every episode.

Enjoy.

Short End of the Stick...

Don't have lots of time to write but thought of a couple songs I want to show you guys. First is a song by Jadakiss where he samples a line from the Lion King song 'Can You Feel the Love Tonight' by Elton John. The song is called 'Hangover' of a mixtape called N.Y. Trafficking (Special Edition).

It's an awesome album but this is def. one of the standout tracks. The other song I would like to show you guys is 'Conversations With God' by Charles Hamilton who I thought would blow up after 'Brooklyn Girls', but has been having some problems taking the next step ( more on this later).

So def. check out these songs because, well because there's no reason not to. And I will def. give you guys some more info on Charles Hamilton's downfall either tomorrow or later this week.

Enjoy,

Samson.
