Last night during Fabolous’ set at The Hammerstein Ballroom, the Brooklyn spitter brought out Lloyd Banks and Juelz Santana to play. First Banks hopped onstage with Loso to perform the street anthem “Start It Up” while Harlem’s own Juelz Santana came to get a piece of Banks’ “Beamer Benz or Bentley.” Good to see NYC artist finally embrace each other. Hmmm, I wonder what a mixtape would sound like with these three.

Young Jeezy Gives Back for Thanksgiving from Decatur Dan on Vimeo.
Says Decatur Dan,
Since I met Jeezy back in April he has always had a giving spirit. I remember when we shot Stop Playing with me in Walters after we wrapped that location he spent time buying some new shoes for a young kid who was window shopping. Yesterday I followed Jeezy and the CTE family as they gave back to the community. We went to Forest Hill Academy where they gave out turkeys to low-income families. Big thanks to Erica Bowen for putting it all together. Let’s get it, just to give it back.

What can we say…Boola has done it again for the 5th consecutive week! This time Boola features another fellow Rocafella records alumni Freeway and budding R&B crooner Lance Drummonds. This song is soulful an impressively arrange/produced from Boola in which he takes you on an audio journey from the corners of the “hood” to the church in just under 4 minutes. It is safe to say that Freeway has a certified smash hit on his hands with this weeks installment from the Produced by Boola music series! Is it just us or does it seem like Boola is presenting some of the best music from your favorite artists week after week.
