A Forbes premiere. For Yonas , “Karate Kid” is the perfect blend of lighthearted and deliberate lyricism. Verbally, the song builds as it plays, increasing its energy like a fight scene from a karate film, paying homage to the late Rob Garrison from the original “Karate Kid” movie. Impressive lyricism matched with explosive production greet listeners with an open invitation to join him in his dojo .


On November 12, 2019, the West Coast rapper and Death Row Records Alum was pronounced dead in his cell at Riverside County Jail in Blythe, California. He was awaiting arraignment for a Domestic Violence incident at the time of the announcement. Born Jamarr Stamps on November 27, 1975, in Hawaiian Gardens, California he shot into the hip hop scene by rapping at house parties growing up. Through doing this he came to the attention of the LBC crew, an act that was executive produced by LBC legend Snoop Dogg himself. He garnered critical attention in 1996 as a guest feature on 2pac Shakur’s song, “Krazy” off of his Makaveli album. He was briefly signed to Doggystyle Records where he made numerous guest appearances before officially signing to Priority Records and dropping his debut, “Word on tha Streets” in 1998.

Bad Azz followed it up in 2001 by releasing the album “Personal Business” which featured Snoop Dogg and Kokane along with lil 1/2 Dead on the lead single “Wrong Idea.” He continuously worked throughout the 2000s, even returning to some Death Row projects in mid 2011-2013. Throughout his consistent work schedule, he was no stranger to controversy, in March of 2013, it was being reported that Bad Azz had allegedly gotten into a physical altercation with singer Ray J. When questioned Bad Azz said the fight was in retaliation for getting jumped by the notoriously known Suge Knight a decade earlier, Ray J was involved because this was around the time he had aligned himself with the infamous mogul.

O ny x & S n ow g o o n s

“SnowMads” (Album Review) Onyx is a revered hip hop duo from Queens, New York consisting of Sticky Fingaz & Fredro Starr. Their first 3 albums Bacdafucup, All We Got Iz Us & Shut ‘Em Down are rightfully considered by many to be East Coast classics. They went on to release 2 mediocre albums in the early 2000s before going AWOL, returning in 2014 with the Snowgoons produced #WAKEDAFUCUP. This was followed up early last year with the long -lost Black Rock but with Thanksgiving around the corner, they’re getting back with the Snowgoons to deliver a follow -up to the album that returned them to form .
