Riff Raff – What You Mean Remix

Riff Raff hops on Doe Boy’s track “What You Mean,” to drop a couple of bars. The remix is full of quotables such as,”Your whole wardrobe you bought it off the clearance rack/Stop talking to me unless you got a clean vagina/In 5th grade I used to have a Trapper Keeper binder.” Check out the full song below.

U-God – FAME (New Video)

Wu Tang Clan artist U-God drops a new music video off of his latest album, The Keynote Speaker. This new clip is for the very catchy record “Fame.”

The video finds the legendary rapper doing his thing while showing off the streets that raised him. He lyrically speaks about what most folks would do for the “Fame” and shows us some prime examples in his hometown.

Check out the video below and cop his new album, Keynote Speaker!
