[...] Thursday night, I had the privilege of attending Hip Hop Monologues: The Life and Mind of Jim Jones. I say privilege both seriously and sarcastically: Jim performed only two nights by invitation only, but… it’s also Jimmy. Naturally, I was expecting a train wreck. But there was no such thing! In fact, the whole production was executed in a somewhat decent manner. That said, it’s important to note that Jim’s story is admittedly not too compelling. Okay, you were a hustler. Okay, you have haters in the hood. Okay, all the ladies want to hump you- we get it.

He did something amazing last week, and threw two verses on MGMT’s “Electric Feel” – the song I constantly co-sign as my favorite this year. I have to give Jimmy credit for this move… out for almost a year, the song is so hot, I’m actually upset he’s the one who got to it first. Wale’s manager posted the remix on Elitaste, admitting that it’s a shame Mr. Folarin missed the boat. I wholeheartedly agree- Wale would have murdered that track. But then again, there is so much sex appeal and swagger on Jim’s version, and it’s actually not bad. MGMT + Capo Status = oww. Listen to the track HERE. Other stuff I’m loving?
