"Finally, Biscuits N Gravy took the stage to wash away the mediocrity. It's been a hot minute since we've seen Biscuits N Gravy but -- as with the food from which they take their name -- we are never disappointed. Their synth-washed jazz fusion sound paired with Future, one of the city's most reliably entertaining MCs, never ceases to make us smile. Seriously, if you built a fortress out of late-'70s Stanley Clarke records and then gave that fortress the ability to rap, it would sound just like Biscuits N Gravy."

Just read a dope article about the Jay-Z concert on Nashville Cream (the Nashville Scene blog). Alotta yall know I went to the Jay concert at Vandy last Friday. Why would I not? Its Jay! In my opinion, anybody that calls themselves a rapper and didnt come up under Jay is just super irrelevant. But anyway, alotta yall might not know that I rode in a freakin stretch Escalade limo, courtesy of Sir Lazenby. DOPENESS. We rolled like Diddy on Friday night. Champagne and all. Got alotta evil looks, got alotta good looks hahaha. Either way, I wasnt about to blog and account the entire night. Some things are just TOO great to blog about. You know them events that u hope u got a few pics of atleast, but other than that u just refer to that memory in reflection or with the ones u shared it with.When Jay announced that he had surpassed Elvis with the most No. 1 albums of all time for a solo male recording artist, it seemed like a generational triumph--we had beaten the boomers and righted the wrongs of pop cultures past.... As Jiggaman said, "Elvis has officially left the building."
