Drizzy & 40 pay homage to TLC’s “Fan Mail” with what is apparently the first joint off his upcoming R&B Mixtape – “It’s Never Enough”.
Nice!
SIDEBAR:
I think part of what gives Drake the winning hand when it comes to crossing genres is, unlike most hip-hop artists, he plays the R&B card with a complete commitment to, and genuine respect for, the genre. Yeah he does it ‘for the ladies’ but make no mistake the kid does it cuz he loves R&B. Not just the R&B that gets a hip-hop credibility pass (D’angelo, Jodeci, Bilal or any of the progressive, neo-souly, left field stuff) but R&B period. Why that, historically speaking, has been such a testosterone stretch for hip-hop heads has always been beyond me but I appreciate the example Aubrey’s setting.
Former Lets Go To War front man, PTRJON (Peter-John) drops his debut solo single, “Addicted”.
Since the release of the critically lauded ‘Karmageddon’ on Lastgang Records, Peter-John has been a busy man.
After touring with the eminent MIA, impressive performances with such renowned artists as K-OS, Santo Gold, Down With Webster and MSTRKRFT, Peter-John of electro/hip hop trio ‘Let’s Go to War’ has released the highly anticipated single from his forthcoming solo EP, ‘PTRJON’.
‘Addicted’ Produced by Smasher (London, UK) & AL-P of MSTRKRFT, is the first taste in a series of upcoming tracks due for future release. A diverse fusion of Electro/Hip Hop/Pop, Peter-John has been hard at work in the studio concocting fresh tracks to set a new precedent on the dance floor come 2011.
MASSIVE!

Reema Major makes her international television debut on the most coveted come-up artist segment on The BET Awards, and she holds her own (she’s not in the first cypher – which Vado killed – she’s in the second one).
