What’s a summer without a hit single by everyone’s favorite rapper from the T.O.

The latest release from up-and-coming rapper Bruce Wayne “The Power Remake” from his upcoming mixtape “Masters of the Universe”.  Its next to impossible to come harder on a single than rapper Bruce Wayne comes on this track.  Details on the release date of  his latest mixtape have yet to be revealed.  However, this new single should serve to curb  fans’ appetite until his latest masterpiece is released to the public.  Stay tuned to mauriceandmarquess to catch Mr.Wayne’s next single.

In his first appearance  in-front of the home crowd in Washington D.C.,  the Wizards Rookie phenom teaches the NBA how to dougie and then goes  on to fall only one steal shy of  his first triple double in only his 3rd game and  ultimately leads the Wizards to their first win of the season by scoring 29 points and adding 13 assists and 9 steals.  Good work  John Wall AKA “Washington Wall”  AKA the “Great Wall of Chinatown”.

That’s right   Maurice and Marquess have declared “Ashton Martin Music”  the official jam of the weekend!   Just because you don’t own an Ashton Martin doesn’t exclude you from bumping this joint in your Chevy Tahoe,  Saturn, or your Honda Accord,  hell bump this b*tch on your Ipod while riding the train and call it “Metro Music”.

The latest single from Rick Ross’ album “Teflon Don” features the vocals of Chrisette Michele along with Drake.  However, the real star of this track is the J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League who produced the exceptional beat.   Make sure you crank this one up to fully enjoy the J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League’s production as you bump this jam and enjoy the weekend. Peace!

Music is a driving force in the game of many top athletes. And now it can bring out the best in yours. Powerbeats combines sonic superiority with a comfortable fit that won’t quit. You’ll hear full range sound with clarity and power, plus your surroundings. And an adjustable/bendable ear hook with flexible arm keeps Powerbeats securely in place, no matter how hard you play.

Instead of giving you our  normal run down about how hot this remix is,  I’m going to just let the track speak for itself enjoy…

Underground rapper and actor Mos Def has inked a deal with Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. music imprint.  This is the latest in many big time signings for Kanye’s super stable of artists.  Mr. West recently signed one half of the group Clipse Pusha T.  This latest signing has many calling the G.O.O.D. music group the Miami Heat of the music industry.  The current stable of G.O.O.D. music artists  currently consists of Kanye West, John Legend, Common, Kid Cudi, Pusha T, Mos Def, Consequence,  and r&b legend Charlie Wilson just to name a few.

For those who are unfamiliar with  G.O.O.D. Music its not  a record label its essentially a production group which artists belong.  The group  helps each  artist find their own distribution deal.  For example, Kanye owns and belongs to G.O.O.D music but his distribution comes through Def Jam whereas Kid Cudi is a G.O.O.D. music artists but his distribution is through Universal Motown.

One thing is for certain this is G.O.O.D. news to hip hop fans that look forward to hearing Mos Def’s lyrics and vocals over Kanye’s classic production.  I know personally I would love to see a G.O.O.D. Music group album along the lines of Young Money’s  “We Are Young Money”.  I guess one can dream…LOL…

Rickkkyy Roosss adds his twist to Miguel’s “All I want is you”.

This is for all those who believe quality Hip Hop no longer exists.  This proves that good music hasn’t gone extinct, you just have to know where to look (mauriceandmarquess.wordpress.com (-; ).  Shouts out to Dom Kennedy and special shout out to J.Cole for not only lyrically lacing this track but for producing such a smooth beat.  I’m sure Bun B is proud of this dedication track.

As you have heard by now Atlantic Records has been holding Lupe Fiasco’s anticipated album “Lasers” hostage for some time now.  However, fans worldwide have decided not to stand idle while this happends and have started an online petition  requesting that Atlantic Records release the album.  As a thank you to his fans for their continued support, Lupe has released BMF (Building Minds Faster) and I think I speak for all Hip Hop fans when I say thank you Lupe for this jewel.
