Allow Us To Re-Introduce Ourselves…
Fact Of The Day: Jordan Gruver, an American citizen of Panamanian descent, took a beating from 2 members of the Imperial Klans of America, the 2nd largest KKK group, after the Brotherhood Klan. The IKA is now being sued, almost to the point of bankruptcy by Gruver and the Southern Poverty Law Center. Their hopes are to to win damages large enough to put the supremacists out of business.
Yo, It’s our inaugural post. We’re the FRESHm3n, and we’re here to keep you up on your music and fashion game. We’re gonna kick it off with some new music.
First up, we got Chi-Town artist Common (a.k.a Common Sense for the die-hards), who has dropped refreshing albums such as Can I Borrow A Dollar, Be, and Like Water for Chocolate, will be dropping his 8th LP on December 9th called Universal Mind Control. Look for production by the Neptunes, Mr. DJ, and No I.D., and features from Kanye West and Pharrell. Here’s a newly released track from the album, “Changes”. It was released to celebrate the victory of a certain black President-Elect….
“Punch Drunk Love” featuring Kanye West
“Make My Day” featuring Cee-Lo Green

“Announcement” featuring Pharrell Williams
“Gladiator”
“Changes”

And look out for the next LP, The Believer, in 09
Mr. West, a.k.a. the Louis Vuitton Don, a.k.a Kanye West is dropping his 4th effort, 808’s & Heartbreak on November 24th. The album features a heavy use of the Auto Tune software, made popular by T-Pain. He claims this album is just something that he had to get off his chest and it has much more emotion than his other efforts. The album is actually emotionally fueled; he gained inspiration from his break-up with his fiancé and the death of his mother, the late Donda West (Coldest Winter). As of now, all the tracks but 2 have leaked, but we’re gonna just give y’all a sample…the law ain’t no joke lol. Go cop the album and support Kanye’s new “pop art” genre he’s created.

DJs Mick Boogie and Terry Urban released a mash/blend mixtape of Jay-Z and Coldplay tracks called Viva La Hova. Tracks are bananas, so check em out.
Get it here….completely legal too, since it’s a mixtape haha
Sidebar: Cop Coldplay’s Viva La Vida LP too…you’ll appreciate the mixtape more afterwards
Speaking of Hov, Jay leaked a track off the Blueprint 3 called History….now I gotta say, this track is beautiful. The lyrics are dope, the beat is amazing and everything comes together perfectly….I think it’s one of Jay’s top 10 tracks….yea, I said it. Production on the track comes from Kanye West and the hook is sung by Tony Williams from G.O.O.D. Music…..and I heard that Kanye sampled a French song for this? Its that dope.

ATL rapper Ludacris is releasing his newest album Theater of the Mind on November 24th. After hearing singles such as What Them Girls Like, Undisputed, One More Drink and some leaked tracks, this album is shaping up to be one of his best. The album boasts production from Swizz Beats, DJ Premier, 9th Wonder, and Darkchild, among others. Since the songs on this album are meant to be like mini-movies, he doesn’t have any features on the album, but rather Co-Stars. A few co-stars on the album are Lil’ Wayne, T.I., T-Pain, Chris Brown, Common, Nas, and Floyd “Money” Mayweather. Peep the vid for the newest single, One More Drink (ft. T-Pain)….its ridiculous….and yes, he does cut his arm off to get away from a chick around 1:20 haha.

Even though this track dropped a few weeks ago, I had to post this….The Cool Kids have been doin it big lately; especially from their venture with Mountain Dew’s Green Label Sound to their inclusion in the new 2k Basketball game. This track, (I Got) Colors, is sick….the beat is ridiculous and Mikey/Chuck don’t disappoint on the lyrics.

…btw, wear headphones when you listen to the beginning of the song….it’s trippy lol

Thanks very much for your good blog;this is the kind of thing that keeps me going through out my day. I’ve been looking around for your site after I heard about them from a colleague and was pleased when I found it after searching for long time. Being a avid blogger, I’m blessed to see others taking initivative and contributing to the community. Just wanted to comment to show my appreciation for your post as it is very challenging to do, and many bloggers do not get credit they deserve. I am sure I’ll visit again and will recommend to my friends.

Useful material. Better not voice my ideas here because I am really opinionated. It’s very important to possess ideas though.

I’ve read over various of your current entries and I was itching to know if you wanted to swap webpage links? I am continually searching to switch links with websites about similar content! I look forward to hearing back from you shortly.

I am enormously concerned regarding the 2012 election. Considering what is occuring in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Middle East (not to mention the U.S. economy) we really should demand a skilled leader. I’m far from convinced that President Obama or any of the Republican contenders so far have the experience or skills necessary to do the job the way it needs to be accomplished. Being president of the United States is an immensely challenging job. Do you think there is anyone out there with the experience, skill, and moral courage to do the job?
