Drake feat. Lil Wayne-Miss Me

Soon everyone will figure out that Drake is more talented than they initially expected and the hate for him will stop. I recall a while ago when almost ALL the homies(except Young James) were hating on the Hot Spitta! "He is so boring!" "He is too monotone!" No need to know names but people know who they are lol, now they can't get off his d.
But anyways I'm not saying Drake is the best ever to do this but he is quite talented and to have this much hype before your album even drops is pretty dope! Give the track below a spin and tell me otherwise...

Weekend Wrap Up

Like I stated earlier, summer is here and it's not only time for relaxation. The staff here at DankLA are working hard to get projects and tasks completed.
We have a lot of ventures in the works but don't know which is going to go public first. But TRUST ME, there is some major shit bout to pop off so stay tuned with us and enjoy the material we provide in the interim.

Just a quick pic that summed up my last weekend in San Diego a few days ago...

also, word to Curren$y "my girl got a pocket bubbler in her purse..."
One of the homegirls hit me with a pic of her new "very cute" bubbler, as she referred to it lol.

Morehouse Man X Fire '98

So i got a text message last night from my good friend Jared with the following picture:

How and why he was at the game I don't know, but he was no doubt there representing the Purple and Gold to watch the Magic finally win a game and prove they had at least some pride in not getting swept.

Even though I'm sure Jared rarely checks the blog I have to congratulate him on graduating from Morehouse recently. For all the crap I have given him (and will continue to give him) about being short, not hitting the blunt, and turning a girl lesbian, he's earned a shout out for his hard work.

Some Fire '98 from Club Meds...

Wiz Khalifa X Illadelph

Since the start all of us at Dank LA have been huge supporters of Illadelph glassware. I've had my Illadelph for close to 8 months now and between my roommates and I it rarely goes a day without use.

The homie Yosh hit me up earlier to tell me there was an Illadelph sighting in Wiz Khalifa's video for The Kid Frankie off of his Kush & OJ mixtape.

TiRon- Ketchup (Mixtape)

After seeing TiRon perform Wednesday night I went ahead and gave his most recent mixtape Ketchup (2009) a shot. Definitely worthy of a download and listen. If you like the new breed of LA artists like Dom Kennedy or Pac Div then you will like TiRon too. If there's one thing this new breed of rappers have in common is that they all seem to have great ears for beats, and this tape is no exception.

His next mixtape MSTRD is set to drop soon.

Fail of the Week

Jersey City pimp "Prince" should've been locked up a long time ago for embarassing himself with this hair, but it took a guilty sentence of running a human trafficking and prostitution ring to finally get him off the streets. He'll have have plenty of time in prison to think up another atrocious looking hair style in the meantime.

Dr.Dre feat. Snoop Dogg-Flashing

This track is not yet specified if it's on the well anticipated Detox, but I am def feeling this track!
I don't really have any expectations from Dre to make another 2001 but you bet he will most def come with his own sound and that westcoast hip hop!

Check out the track below...(sorry for the woldstarhiphop tags, I know its annoying lol)

Talib + Hi-Tek= Reflection Eternal

I'm not going to lie I completely forgot this was coming out this month, so I was surprised when I saw it had leaked this morning. I was anticipating a full weekend of Boss of all Bosses 2.5 but this will definitely get its fair share of listens. I listened through it once already at school and Kweli did his thing as usual...but GOD DAMN Hi-Tek murdered the production.

Download and enjoy but go cop next Tuesday!

"This for my piss test failures who won't leave it alone, shout out to Ricky Williams and Pacman Jones"

This article is a few weeks old but still relevant especially heading into the legalization vote this November. It's basically about the use of marijuana by NFL players, as there is a growing number of prospects entering the league who have either admitted to smoking or have tested positive for smoking.

When you think about it weed is ideal for NFL players. It can be used to manage pain, something NFL players endure plenty of with the constant beating they take. Instead of prescribing them countless painkillers which are extremely addictive and easy to abuse, a joint after practice or a game would be a much better option. One player also points out that weed helped him keep up his appetite to maintain his playing weight.

Of course the league would never support its players using weed because the NFL is more concerned with their players' image and marketability than their health.

Study Break

Me and Yosh were on our crunch-time study grind earlier today for a midterm and took a much needed break. We walked up to the Student Center and what do you know, sorority girls asking for creampies.

Yosh had to deliver.

Dre showing off the first batch of Dank LA stickers which FINALLY arrived the other day thanks to the joker down in STL.

E-mail us at crew@dankla.com and we'll e-mail you a pack. To those who already e-mailed us the stickers will be out by the end of this week. Thanks for being patient.

Good Riddance/Cinco de Mayo

It's a day of celebration for Raiders fans across the country. This lazy schmuck will no longer be squeezing his fat self into the silver and black.

He won only seven of his 25 starts, completed just 52.1 percent of his passes in his career with 18 touchdowns, 23 interceptions, 15 lost fumbles and a passer rating of 65.2. The Raiders have paid him more than $36 million through last season, meaning he's been paid more than $5 million per win, more than $2 million per touchdown pass and more than $100,000 per completion.

When it comes to Mexican food I'm pretty biased towards a few places in LA, so it's not surprising that I've been pretty unimpressed with most of the spots in Irvine. Me and Renheezie decided to go out to Santa Ana yesterday to find something a little more authentic for Cinco de Mayo.

Of course before we left a joint was in order.

Alebrije's Grill. The dude spoke no English so I had to use what little Spanish I remembered from High School.

The Doors are Open

G.o.D. Jewels- Greatness Opens Doors

The amount of effort that went into this release is amazing to me. The artwork is on point, but more notable to me is that every song is tagged with the lyrics. Some of you probably don't care but one of my favorite parts of buying physical copies of an album is to read the lyrics in the liner notes, so props to Jewels for that one.

If you download drop a comment and give me your opinions/thoughts on the mixtape, good or bad.

A little weekend wrap up

I came up to LA for the weekend to handle some business pertaining to our company...not much got accomplished, I expected to do way more, but little by little things are happening.


So Friday night I chilled with some of the OG homies and went over to the big homie P's house.
Smoked an L and a fat ass J in some rice papers.
(click ALL pics to enlarge photos)

This dude was convinced they were better than zig zags, but either way it was a good smoke lol.

Faded as hell, P busted out an ooooold pair of his sneakers from like 9 years ago lol. Laker fans and sneakerheads will appreciate this...

You should know whose signature shoe that is.

Anyways, on Saturday I went out during the day and ran a few errands before the Cavaliers game at 5. (Samir, dont cry buddy, you guys might win one in Beantown. MAYBE)

Here are a few pics to sum up that day...

Copped a pack of Margo's Bark to support a good cause. I must say, I really like root beer but this shit is pretty good.


Had to swoop some dank Cuban food from this spot on Sepulveda called El Rincon Criollo. Don't sleep on it!


And Saturday night kicked it with some homies...one of them has turned hipster. SMFH haha

Stick around with us for a few weeks because that's when its goin doooowwn!
