New video from the collective that consists of Jermaine Dupri, Usher, Trey Songz, Nelly, Johnta Austin, Bryan Michael Cox and Tyrone Davis. Off their 3000 & 9 mixtape.

This past week I’ve been dealing with a few personal issues so I lost track of keeping up with the R&B leakage. And rather than dropping a half-assed Take I decided to take another day to gather. New/unreleased music from the likes of Karina Pasian (who also graces the cover), Mario, R. Kelly, Tyrese, John Mayer, Jamie Foxx, London, Charlie Wilson, Christina Milian, Trey Songz, Mary J Blige and more.

New Nelly & Diddy!? Ok… calm down ya’ll. Not all at once! Server overload!!! Haha… anyways, I wonder if Nelly’s including some of the 1′s Pacman passed him (on camera) during the lovely Strip Club incident? And yes I know it’s the “wrong” Nelly above. I just figured the dopeboyz would rather look at the promiscuous one over the muscle head. Was I wrong? Shouts to X on the CDQ.

…before going upside the skullcap of one unlucky skripper. This is never-before-seen footage of that infamous night which ultimately got “Pacman” booted out of the league, now having to whore himself out on TNA Wrestling and Pros vs. Joes episodes to make ends meet. The whole “hip hop” part of this bullshit is when Nelly and Jermaine Dupri are spotted making assclowns out of themselves as well. The moral of this story? Pocket your money; we’re in a fucking recession.

Shake sent this over saying it’s only right for us to post as the group originated in his hometown. Here’s what he said in the email:

This type of music might not be the choice of most of the dopeboyz that frequent the site but you can’t deny the amount of talent involved in this group. If you’re unaware Oceans 7 consists of Jermaine Dupri (the exception in the talent statement I made prior), Usher, Trey Songz, Johnta Austin, Bryan Michael Cox, Nelly and Tyrone Davis (who? I don’t know either). A more in depth break down of the formation of the new aged Rat Pack is expressed in the intro.

Tracklist + Download link after the jump…

Real talk, when I worked in entertainment production Maestro was an intern at the office I was in, and we almost always talked about sneakers and hip hop the entire time. Makes me wanna jump back into the sneaker scene full-fledged again sometimes.

Now here is something I never thought would happen. Another album from Nelly & his goons. *shrugs… here’s the first leak off the St. Lunatics upcoming album, City Free.

I will never put Nelly’s hustle down as he has done some crazy things in his career. I just never knew Lil Wayne felt so warm about the St. Lunatic. It is cool to see an artist show appreciation to another though.

I’m not entirely sure but I’m guessing there are atleast a few Nelly fans that frequent 2DB. Regardless, he’s a good dude. I gotta post a few tracks off his upcoming album, Brass Knuckles (September 16th), just for the awesome time I had during his listening session festivities here in Vegas. That and I think it’s pretty dope he linked up with Chuck D for a record! Extra pause sauce on the image above.

In between keeping up with The Game and his leakage, politicin’ with far too many people, knocking out countless projects; today has been insanely busy. And with that said I missed out on more than enough videos to justify this post. Above you can check Santogold’s latest vid for Lights Out. After the jump you’ll see new videos featuring Ludacris, Chris Brown, Opio, Devin the Dude, Musiq Soulchild, Three 6 Mafia, Nelly, B.G., Maino and much more…

Spotted as eskay’s. Now, I like sneakers as much as the next man, but the U-N-I’s song > The Cool Kids’ song > this bullshit. Also, Ciara = Bow Wow lost.

As I get ready to sit back and watch Game2 of the NBA Finals I wanted to drop some insight on yesterday’s festivities. The day starts off with a trip to the Red Rock Casino to meet up with my man Dre (EIC at HipHopDX) and New Music Cartel fam Lowkey (who was down for the weekend on some BET business). We start off with a pretty intimate listening session and conversation with Nelly and his new album, Brass Knuckles. Akon and JD came through as well. The album is what you’d expect from Nelly imo. It’s more hyped this time around though. And what’s this about a possible Nelly x Akon x Pharrell album? Hmm, you’ll have to wait and see. I’m sure Low will be posting a wrap up with pictures that he took with his mini M&M later.

After that we had some time to kill so why not go down stairs to the theater and watch Don’t Mess With the Zohan!? That.shit.was.hilarious! Wow, I was falling out every 2 minutes. Great shit Mr. Sandler. Still time left to spend so we (Shake, Low and T) hit up the Roulette Table (or Russian Roulette right Low? Ha!). We all bought in with $40, all atleast doubled and all lost everything. It was worth it though, as it took an hour or so off the clock and the cocktail waitress was feeding us free liquor. Now it’s time for the show…

We hit this VIP concert where Nelly performs the album, along with some of his previous hits. Paul Wall, Akon, St. Lunatics all make appearances. Best part about that was, you guessed it… more free alcohol! Add to the fact that we ran into Elliot Wilson! What up YN!? We chopped it up, good times. At this time I’m pretty fuckin gone. Yes, yes I am. What next? How about we head to Cherry Night Club to help celebrate Allen Iverson’s birthday? Sounds good. Let’s go…

We get to the club and see a HUGE line. We don’t play that. We show are bands and skip the nonsense. Once inside we’re engulfed in loud music, flashing lights and drunk & hot girls (c) Kanye. No more drinks for the Shake as I’m dr. unk and enjoying myself. Let’s see, who made their way to party? Nelly, Akon, JD, Carmello Anthony (and LaLa), Allen Iverson, Dr. J (yes, Julias Erving!) and more. I must say… Kanye’s Lollipop (rmx) verse was very entertaining while drowned in Corona’s and hopping around like a gremlin (or Lil Wayne, whatever). Same goes for his verse on Put On. Despite a 5 minute power shut down (complete darkness!) and 15 minutes of bad sound quality, I had a fuckin blast! Not sure about anyone else (nor do I care) but myself and Low we’re showin LV how we get down [II]. Yep, life as a blogger sucks. Hahaha!

UPDATE: I forgot to add the best [note: SARCASM] part. While driving home (at 4:30am) my Jeep overheats and dies on me 3 miles out from my apt. Phone’s dead and I’m forced to walk. I walk 2 miles (tired and buzzed) only to be picked up by a firetruck for the last mile. Go back to hopefully start Jeep and get it home today only to realize I blew my head gasket and cracked my block. AKA Big Red is finshed. Shake has no transportation until he gets a new car. *sigh.
