First leak off Danny Brown’s upcoming Danny Johnson LP. You might not be too familiar with the name, but just this year we’ve heard him on a record with Elzhi, rhyming over some good ol’ Dilla and more. Quit sleeping. Spotted at NR (via OKP).

Just got back from the N.E.R.D. x Common show. One of the livest shits I’ve been too out here in Vegas. Common surprised me with that theme’d out performance. Real dope. Anyways, JKim hit me up with some more footage of Blu & Mainframe’s pre-release party at BoomBox in Los Angeles a few weekends back. If you don’t have Johnson&Jonson by Wednesday you are not hip hop. Straight up.

I was going to originally include this after the jump on the recent Blu post I made but fuck that, this is (2)Dope! Brand new video from Blu & Mainframe. Johnson&Jonson in stores September 23rd! Don’t be a sucker and not cop! What up J.Kim!? And while we’re at it, how about some audio of Blu’s latest show in San Fran? Good looks Mario. I believe me and the misses shall be there (SF) soon enough. Any recommendations for a weekend stay?

I’ve got a few things to take care of and might not be around so I wanted to drop this sweet exclusive for ya’ll from Blu & Mainframe our upcoming (2)Dope Mixtape: Cadillac Edition, dropping this month! For those wondering, this will not be on the upcoming Johnson&Jonson album, dropping September 23rd! As Below the Heavens showed off Blu’s song writing and auto-biographical nature; and The Piece Talks was pure energy; this album can be labeled as his rap/swagger project. Right JK? So download the track for a preview of what to expect from both the Johnson&Jonson album as well as our (2)Dope Mixtape: Cadillac Edition (Hosted by U-N-I). Shouts to DJ Slimm for throwing some mixing down on such short notice. Shake-n-Bake!
