The Numbers Game: Uncle Charlie Surprises, Akon Goes Gold, & N.A.S.A. Debuts
Raise your hand if you even knew Charlie Wilson’s album came out last week. Okay, I knew it wasn’t just me. The Gap Band’s lead singer did some business this week and took the #2 spot with his 4th album Uncle Charlie.
The Numbers Game: New Money
You see what they made me do? The releases are so slow right now that I had to go make a banner for The Numbers Game because I didn’t know who should be pictured (I mean, I could have threw Rihanna up there, but that would have been f*cked up.)
The Numbers Game: Beyonce Stays On Top
You know there must be a shortage of Hip-Hop releases when Beyonce gets the picture…twice. I’m not gonna really gonna go into about how there are no relevant Hip-Hop album coming out in the beginning of 2009; if you read any past Numbers Game columns this year you already know I said this a hundred [...]
The Numbers Game: Kanye Stays At #4
We still here? I thought a Numbers Game this week wouldn’t see the light of day, but here we are. But hey, we’ll talk about that drama another time. Even though this January has been rough for the nappyafro crew, I can’t wait for this releases to start coming in. Think about it: Mariah Carey [...]
The Numbers Game: Kanye Goes Platinum
Damn, it’s 2009 already? After almost doing this column 40 times now, it still feels like I just started this yesterday. What does ‘09 hold for Hip-Hop on the charts? We’ll see a new Eminem album, maybe Detox, hopefully Blueprint 3 as well as a host of other releases (January looks slack as hell by [...]
The Numbers Game: Akon Is #7
What’s up people? It’s Thursday and once again it’s time for another edition of The Numbers Game. Leading the Hip-Hop/R&B debuts this week is Akon with his new album Freedom at #7. Now I’m a be real with you: I haven’t had any urge to listen to this album at all. Not to say it’s [...]
Friday Night ‘Fro: The Premiere
We kicked this idea around for like 2 weeks; have a Friday specific column that we put up videos in (It seems like we kinda slack off on this day). What kind of videos? Whatever we like: movies, trailers, music videos, just whatever we want. It doesn’t necessarily have to be directly related to Hip-Hop.
Song of the Week: Joe Budden, Akon, Little Brother, Lil’ Wayne, & Young Jeezy
Yeah, it’s me again. I think it’s time for me to take a long retirement from Song of the Week; it’s really not what I initially thought it was (It seems I’m picking a lot of new stuff lately). Don’t worry, it’s a great chance that the pick next week will be something dusty and [...]
Song of the Week: Young Jeezy feat. Various Artists – “Soul Survivor (remix)”
Jeezy isn’t on my top spins list, but his adlibs are some of the best in the biz and he makes some decent songs. Couple that with Akon who has one of the most annoying and identifiable voices in history…but that man can put together a song. This weeks SOTW has them teaming up with [...]
