Hot video – 2 Chainz “Riot” #TrapTuesdays

How clever. A riot for 2 Chainz' song "Riot," in a scene that is vaguely reminiscent of "Run This Town." I see where Decatur Dan is going with that...and fire captivates my attention almost as much as pretty lights. And yes, I'm super jealous of Decatur Dan's alliterated name. Julie J is close, but not nearly that cool. 2 Chainz debut album Based on a T.R.U. Story is dropping this summer via Def Jam, I believe. I still haven't listened to his T.R.U. Realigion mixtape, mostly because the copy I downloaded was corrupt, and his simp features put me on the fence about him. It will be interesting to see how his journey compares to that Nicki Minaj's. Homegirl built her buzz so high with all her features, which seems like the path 2 Chainz has gone down since rechristening himself from Tity Boi to 2 Chainz. For the record, I always enjoyed Nicki's features more than her own songs, so it'll be interesting to see if that's the case with Tity Boi. I've had this burning question for a while: is 2 Chainz singlehandedly keeping the True Religion brand alive?

Hot video – Future ft. T.I. “Magic”

I really feel like T.I. has been on his shit lately. Good for him. T.I. joins Future in front of Magic City for the appropriately named song "Magic," with Decatur Dan behind the lens (I love that alliteration). Whenever I hear anything by Future, or YC of "Racks" fame, I always imagine that I'm listening to a language immersion song. For what language, I don't know, but that's just what I tell myself.
