Nas feat. John Legend – Victory

thehoodnerd — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 00:15:39 +0000

Here’s the track DJ Khaled teased us with last week while promo’ing his new album on Youtube. I’m a Nas stan so of course i feel like he murdered this track if anyone has any objections just kind of hold them to yourself I will judge you lol. John Legend also does a great job of bringing some soul to the hook. This is definitely a new anthem for me…check it out below and be sure to download this 1 while it last’s.

“For my hustler’s here’s some motivation….he who has begun is half done, why you waiting?”

Trey Songz – Til the Day I Die

thehoodnerd — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 21:59:51 +0000

Trey Songz doesn’t stay away for too long he’s constantly hitting his fans with new music at just the right times when they are asking for more. I’m not sure when this track was recorded but it’s featured on Tape Masters Inc’s (hence the annoying fucking tags) The Future of R&B 31 mixtape. Enjoy ladies…

Gourmet Spring 2010 Collection

thehoodnerd — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 20:05:44 +0000

Gourmet has come a long way over the years, after starting off receiving much criticism for models that highly resembled Jordan sneakers the brand did some overhauling. These says the Jordan like silhouettes are toned way down and they have some new original models that are getting great feedback. This latest Spring collection from them is definitely a nice collection with some great use of materials. I think my favorite is the Dicinove which is featured directly below.
