Kanye West - 'Runaway' Short Movie

Most of you reading have already watched it.. but it deserves to be watched again. It shows Kanye at his artistic peak, and how he expresses emotions into producing one of the most monumental short movies of the 21st century. 

Beware.. It's NOT gestured towards those who are simple minded or cannot open their minds to grasp the messages being conveyed to them.
ENJOY.

KiD CuDi - 'Ghost' (Perfomed Live)



Yes, This will be on MOTM II.

Jay-Z’s 'Decoded' Song List


A lot of introspective songs on Hov's list. Surprising that 'I Know' didn't make the cut. To this day people still don't understand the meaning/content of the song. Hopefully he makes a 'Decoded - Volume 2'!

Cyhi the Prynce- "Sideways" Official Video (Kanye West's Artist On GOOD ...

Top 10 of 21st Century : Honorable Mention #3


October's Very Own.
To some Drake is recognized as a singer, to some an overrated rapper, but to us here at Four Drake is recognized as one of the most versatile artists in the game. With his undeniable appeal & grind he has emerged from the under dog he was once to one of the most recognized artists in the game. From Room for Improvement to So Far Gone you can see the evolution that has occurred in Drake. He went from a humorous yet smooth rap feel to speaking about problems that he faced throughout his years in the rap game, problems he faced in his personal life as well as problems in getting things to go his way. For example if you listen to Say Whats Real then fast forward to a song like the Resistance, you can see his maturity in making music that goes from a personal level to music that relates to his wide audience. 

As a listener you get the feel that Drake knows exactly what problems you are going through and how to go about solving them. With his music he creates an atmosphere that he made that one song specifically for you.

*FAVOURITE VERSES BY DRAKE*

Drake - The Resistance
"I'm still here with who I started with
The game needed life, I put my heart in it
I blew myself up, I’m on some martyr shit
Carried the weight for my city like a cargo ship
Yeah, I’m 23 with a money tree
Growing more too, I just planted 100 seeds
It’s ironic cause my mother was a florist and that's how she met my pops
And now my garden is enormous, it’s happening Penny Lane
I said it's happening Penny Lane
Just like you said I avoided the Coke game and went with Sprite instead
 That's word to the millions that they putting up
I’m trying to do better than good enough!"

Drake - Say What's Real
"Why do I feel so alone?
Like everybody passing through the studio
Is in character as if we acting out a movie role
Talking bullshit as if it was for you to know
And I don't have the heart to give these
Bitch ass niggas the cue to go
So they stick around kicking out feedback
And I entertain it as if I need that"

 As an artist he needed to make music that proved that he hadn't reached his limits yet, he did that in the making of Karaoke. Drake RnB at it's finest.


New Music : N.E.R.D - Nothing On You


N.E.R.D release another teaser of their upcoming album. Smooth production from The Neptunes resulting to some easy listening music. Enjoy!

New Music : Wale - Mike Tomlin (Black & Yellow Freestyle)

New Music : J. Cole - I'm On It

Its Coming...


F.O.U.R Clothing F/W 2010 Collection 
Coming soon!

Top 10 of 21st Century : Honorable Mention #2



WALE "OVECHKIN" FOLARIN

Despite his under rated lyrics and musical style, we at F.O.U.R would like to inform you not to turn deaf ears... This D.C native is on the come up of potentially being one of the leaders of the new generation of rap. His demeanor and persona alone on the mic is for lack of a better word vicious; applying an original HipHop style, a "Go-Go" reminiscent flow, on hype or relaxing beats. With a keen ear in HipHop, you will easily pick up this artist's range and versatility (easily visible in his lyrics, and storytelling). Moreover, I personally would like to award Wale with the most improved artist award of the last decade; if you listen to "W.A.L.E.D.A.N.C.E" for example and than fast forward to the present with his latest mixtape "More About Nothing" you will definitely see the improvement and precision with his craft. His style and flow have become more unique and almost synonymous with his name; and being such an early point in his career displays his commitment, determination and grind.

Wale is truly an artist to be admired, and has many songs that the audio audiences can relate to... Wale has collaborated with artists such as KiD CuDi, J.Cole, K'naan, Talib Kweli, Beanie Sigel and Bun B; who have been on there individual musical journeys towards success. Having these additional collaborations positively contributes to his music and publicity. A Great quote from Wale is "I'm just a kid that likes to talk about reality... to be honest."

*FAVOURITE VERSES BY WALE*

Wale- The Problem
"Paint on my face, layin back rollin the J
Feelin like these rap niggas aint as real as they say
That's why I keep my friends limited, Keep them hoes interested
Resented by the game like I'm Pete Rose in this bitch
Ain't nothin stoppin us, tell u what the problem is
I'm on top of my game but these niggas won't acknowledge it
So a nigga hungry as a plastic hippopotamus
So stoppers better take it in the blood like a phlebotomist..."

Wale- The Eyes Of The Tiger
"Thinkin' wit my dick, My head in the clouds
Should of avoided my temptation instead of my vows
Now I may suffer my forever shit wit Elin
Let's put this shit to bed before this message gets the L-O..."


 Here is "The Extra-Trip" a revamped and refined version of "The Trip" off of "More About Nothing." Just a little something to bump while reading.



Wale - The Extra Trip (The Way To My Love) by Hypetrak

Top 10 of 21st Century : Honorable Mention #1


PHARRELL "SKATEBOARD P" WILLIAMS 

Pharrell Williams has already made history for being one of the most successful and prolific producers to emerge during the last decade. As part of the beat-making duo The Neptunes, Pharrell and his partner Chad Hugo have helped A-List pop stars sell millions of albums and even earn Grammy Awards for the likes of Justin Timberlake, Nelly, and Usher.

While producers are typically faceless, behind-the-scenes types, Pharrell has managed to become a star in his own right.It is usually his voice behind the infectious choruses for his hits using his infectious flow to set trends when he name drops clothing brands and expensive trinkets in his verses.. He is a member of the alternative rock trio N.E.R.D., a teaming with Chad and childhood friend Shae Thornton, which has released two critically acclaimed, platinum albums. Plus, he has already had his own hit, His song "Frontin'," from the 2003 compilation The Neptunes Presents: The Clones!

From Production, to Rapping and even as far as clothing design /modelling, Pharrell Williams is one artist that will always be very well honored in the hip-hop culture !

**Favourite Verses By Pharrell!**


"Snoop Dogg’s “Drop It Like It’s Hot ”
“See these ice cubes, see these Ice Creams/Eligible bachelor, million-dollar boat that whiter than what’s spilling down your throat/The Phantom, exterior like fish eggs/The interior like suicide-wrist red.

"You can do it too"
"Life's a bitch but not too extreme
Life's got a fat ass, Trust me I'ma fuck full steam
I make the world cream and scream, while I'm gettin my cream
I'm coming to america call me Prince Akeem, yessir
"

CyHi Da Prynce - 'Royal Flush' (Mixtape)


G.O.O.D Musics' newest member CyHi Da Prynce releases his new mixtape titled 'Royal Flush'. With his veteran sound, witty wordplay & smooth flow some have already titled this mixtape as the Best Mixtape of 2010. Surprisingly no features from other artists, other than I'm So Appalled. Guess he had something to prove with this.
Listen Here!


Notable Favourites - Ring Bellz, Sideways, Hero.

Kanye's Album Artwork Banned!


Kanye's artwork really matches the title 'My Dark Twisted Fantasy'. He sure has come a long way from his masked bear album covers on Graduation & College Dropout. The US does not allow nudity on album covers anymore, and their definitely not making an exception because he's Kanye. Back to the drawing board..
Click photo for more of kanye's reaction

New Music : Joe Budden - No Idea


Spits nothing but the truth on all his tracks, no exception on this one. One of the most underrated rappers in the game.

New Music : Joe Budden - Inception


Joe Budden still spittin' that hot fire like Dylan from the Chappelle Show. Sadly, this won't be appearing on his upcoming mixtape 'Mood Muzik 4'.

New Music : Curren$y ft. Boo Sledge - Still Choppin'


Some new Curren$y x Boo Sledge for you. Hopefully this makes the final cut for Pilot Talk 2.. The beat is layed down real smooth, and the lyrics are nothing but dope from Spitta. 
Lames Catch Feelings, We Catch Flights. JET$ Fool!
