The internet exploded this week with releases of some long awaited freebie jewels. T.I. released his highly anticipated Gangsta Grillz release called 'F*ck a Mixtape' with DJ Drama and DJ MLK, Rick Ross dropped the prequel to 'Teflon Don' titled 'The Albert Anastasia' EP, new school Hip-Hop mainstay Red Café dropped his mixtape 'No Witnesses', and Wu legend Raekwon dropped his mixtape Cocainism Vol. 2. In all, it was a satisfying week of mixtape releases. In other news, the tracklists for some major albums were released.

In song news, the Jay-Z and Drake collaboration for Drake's 'Thank Me Later' was leaked titled "Light Up". The track is smooth, and unfortunately for Drake, Jay-Z clearly outshines the rookie on his own cut. Drake should've seen that one coming, but alas.
It was a big week for Hip-Hop and June/July is looking like it will be the biggest this. It's going to be one long, hot summer. It's been real.
