Prince Ea

Prince Earth, or Prince Ea as he is known is one of my favourite newcomers to hiphop, I only just discovered him this month but i'm already hooked.
In my opinion he is one of the freshest, lyrical, smartest and funny rappers to come out of the US for years.
His raps vary from science, politics, conspiracy theories, to rapping about commercial rappers and even joke subjects like "It's Not My Baby".

And with Prince comes his new brand/campaig: Make Smart Cool Again a.k.a S.M.A.R.T (Sophisticating Millions/Minds And Revolutionising Thought.
Heres the description from the Facebook Page:

"The purpose of the Make 'SMART' Cool movement is to create and nurture, without discrimination or preference, a community of free-thinking individuals under the singular purpose of promoting the ideals of education, intelligence, unity and creativity throughout the world at large."

So I think Prince Ea is definatly one to look out for in 2010, as he already accomplished Vibe Magazines Verses Champion in '09, lets see what he can make of this year.

P Money versus Ghetto War

Ok so im sure you've all heard about this by now, P money and Ghetto are waring against each other, releasing various war dub videos each week.
Ghetts is one of my favourite UK artists, but i cant help but think that P is winning so far, even after GH posted his "The Destruction Of The Eiffle Tower" dub, which focuses on P Money's real name, Paris.

P Money Sends For Ghetts

Above is my favourite of the dubs so far which is just a freestyle by P, but i think his flow and delivery on this one is next to none.

In this, and his other videos, P spits about things like how Ghetto got punched on stage at an Eski rave by Flirta D, how he stole Wileys laptop, and then returned it to him, and also how he didn't back up Griminal when it kicked off with Tempa T.

But i do have to hand it to Ghetts, he then went on to post "Ghetto vs Ghetts (Suicide)" which was a clever idea of doing a dub with the old Narsty Ghetto vs the new mainstream Ghetts in an 8 mile style so that P then cannot use it against him.

Ghetto vs Ghetts

Now we all just have to wait in anticipation for P's reply to the Paris dub (if he does that is), but in my opinion both are great artists and neither deserve to be "buried".
