His new album “Stony Hill” is out now and available everywhere.

Rolling Stone Review

Between LPs with Nas and Mick Jagger, and more recent tracks with Jay-Z (4:44‘s “Bam”) and Skrillex (“Make It Bun Dem”), Damian Marley (a.k.a. Jr. Gong) has been his late father’s rangiest ambassador.

His first solo album in a decade is an inspiring 18-track collection, flexing authority on roots jams and dancehall bangers, political meditations (“Walking home a youth gets killed/Police free to shoot at will,” he sings on “Slave Mill,” with his dad’s indomitable ruefulness) and come-ons (the Drake-ian “Grown and Sexy”). It’s a reminder that reggae remains a potent pop force, especially when it’s in the hands of a master.

Hip Hop Turns 44

Forty-four years ago today, an 18-year-old New York DJ and his emcee friend threw on their dope gold chains and created hip-hop.

To celebrate the 44th anniversary of hip-hop, Google debuted an interactive Google Doodle narrated by Fab 5 Freddy on its homepage, where you can play DJ as you scratch, mix your own breaks and earn trophies that unlock new facts about hip-hop.

Happy Birthday Hip Hop. We miss you what happened to you love you.

WATCH: Rapper Lil Boosie Cries When Fan Tells Him You Are My Daddy

Boosie

I must admit, ever since New Orleans rapper Lil Boosie Badazz got out of prison in 2014, he has become a new man. I personally liked some of his music but never really followed his career prior to. Since his release, he can do no wrong in my eyes. I just like the guy what can I say. I get a kick out of him. His interviews are always classics.

Boosie’s time in the bing grew him up and after his release it was obvious that he was finally headed down the right path. I can appreciate his redemption story.

Check out this video of Boosie talking about how his fans touch his heart when they let him know that they appreciate his music.

Around the :53 mark Boosie breaks out in song belting out the 1993 hood classic throwback, “Gangster Lean.” And he sings it from the heart.

Sang Boosie! Saaaaang! Gotta love it.
