Well...Youtube world has started another one!!! Before this goes any further Polow I wanna say that I love your work. You are a little cocky on your interviews, but you have the right to be. It's just funny how people are trying to put you on blast so I decided to post some of the vidz. Youtube...who cares if he used sounds from Garageband, and Native Instruments? He bought it! Let's get into this...



MVP from Bulgaria putting Polow Da Don on blast behind the Nas - Hero beat.



Jeff talking about Polow Da Don on using a Garage Band sound for Usher - Love In This Club.



This dude is somewhat ridiclous. Thing he needs to understand is that Polow Da Don and Timbo are boys so they share sounds etc.



Sorry man don't get it.



Polow Da Don beats! Next they're gonna get at Danja hahha!! Polow keep bangin'em man!

ThugBoss did a feature on Rob Viktum a little over a month ago, highlighting his "Snack Pack" series. Well, the man has already cranked out a Volume 2, and if you heard the first one, then you know this is fire. Stop wasting your damn time and download volume two. Beats, Beats, Beats, Beats, Beats.

Rob Viktum's | Snack Pack Vol. 2

Okay, so the homies over at ITE (aka In This Economy?) have inspired us a little bit here at ThugBoss. They ran a post on Monday called The Beat Tape Bailout, which basically shed some light on some great music that was out there on the web to be had for free. Free? Yes free. Well man, since then, they either missed a few, or maybe a few more joints have been dropped. How amazing is it that we live in a time where all it takes is a decent internet connection to get all the free (legal) music we could ever wish for? One thing is for sure, if we are in a recession, these artists surely feel our pain. So whether you can't afford to buy any new CDs, or just wanna hear some new and very fresh music, I suggest you continue reading.

I guess you can call this the Beat Tape Bailout part II.

Mr Peter Parker | Asher Roth's Day Off

I guess you could say that ThugBoss has been all up on Asher's bozack as of late, but what can we say? The kid is dope. If you have been procrastinating, then this tape is a perfect refresher course for all the stuff that wasn't on his Greenhouse Effect mixtape. For the fans, there should be enough remixes/blends to hold you over for 12 days, until the album drops.

Vohn Beatz | A Child's Painting


Now, we have 11 year old prodigy/the future of all that is beatmaking... Mr. Vohn Beatz. He is the 11 (maybe 12 now) year old son of Hip Hop super producer S-1 (aka Symbolic One) of Strange Fruit Project. Like his father, this kid is amazing with the beats. This tape has many guest appearances ranging from Headkrack, Picnic, Hi-Tek, Braille and many more. I'm not even gonna say that for an eleven year old whatever... for a man any age, VohnBeatz puts it down. This kid is AMAZING.

I thought I'd post this. It seems that youtube is the place to call people out these days. So lets post a couple of vids on people calling Timbaland out. First I wanna say as a producer, I look up to Timbo!!! He has made some awesome tracks over the years and you can't front on his work ethic. I think folks are mad because he's still spending that "Big Pimpin'" money ya dig? Money is the motivation, holla at a boss beyaauch!!!



Damn...that's where he got that from?



Damn...he kind of tells on himself, but...I love it!



Da hell wrong wit dem?!!



You gotta masters degree? Let me ask ya dis...can ya kick my ass?



Peep the accent: Tembaland jayked muia beet!



LOL!!!!! Timbo the thief!!!!



I can be all day with these vidz but my question is...why are they just coming forward now? Timbo is cold on them beats son! I know he's heard almost everywhere. Why are they doing him like this now?

After giving his new beat tape a good listen, it is obvious that this man is from another planet. He now resides in Dallas, Texas and is at the top of his game. The self proclaimed "Beat Fanatic" has been hard at work, proving that he is one of the nation's (and Texas') hardest working producers. With that said, he is blessing the world with a gift... A sneak peak of how his mind works. With all that said, Rob Viktum presents to you... "Snack Pack Volume One". Take my word for it, or shit, just listen... this tape is full of bangers! Producers take notice! It's time to step your game up. Rappers, movie producers, commercial makers, etc. you can contact Rob Vik at robviktum@gmail.com , or just hit him up on his Twitter.
