His mixtape is coming soon and is sponsored by 10 deep like a past U&Cer wale...so his credentials are there from fools gold and 10 deep who have put there stamps on classic material already, and Kid Cudi is next...

PAC DIV SIGNS TO A MAJOR!!!!!!
The Smoking Section reports PD got signed. Great news for a talented bunch of MC's:

Just got word that Pacific Division signed with Universal yesterday, and man am I relieved.

About a week ago, rumor had it Pac Div were going to be the premier act to sign with Jermaine Dupri’s new TAG Records – a Proctor and Gamble/Island Def Jam effort to meld product with product. When I mentioned the contract on the table, Gotty™ said “I hope they sign with invisible ink.”

While the TAG Body Spray deal seems well intentioned – what with immediate spotlight shine and a hefty signing bonus – the Over/Under is bleak. JD inevitably pops up in his artists’ videos and adds a real weak-sauce glaze to the whole swag, not to mention instant association with the splashy Funkdafied or kiddy Lil’ Bow Wow. When is the last JD project you were really feeling? Because it was probably Kris Kross and you probably only liked them because they were your own age and the radio was fresh at the time.

That aside, had Pac Div signed with TAG, they would forever be known as “the TAG group.” It would be infinitely harder to shake the image of product placement, however great or small, than it will be to get Universal to put out a quality record. And Pac Div got records. It would be a damn shame to have their music lost to the pages of gimmick history.

THE WEEK IN REVIEW

COP IT JUNE 10th

Tha Carter III by Lil’ Wayne On the opening track of Lil’ Wayne’s long awaited Tha Carter III, he declares his dominance on the game despite the fact that his last aolo album was released three years ago. “3 Peat” is filled with punchlines highlighting his power in the Hip-Hop game, the cleverest of which refers to him “ball[ing] til we fall like tears.” After this very energetic intro, C3 includes a very diverse tracklisting that will suit any Lil’ Wayne fan’s taste. The only similarity between every track is amazing production. Aside from one or two songs with semi-lazy production, Young Money picked very good tracks to spit his usual non-sense. Lyrically, Wayne is on point on nearly every song, bringing cleverness and insight where many thought Weezy was incapable. From the street anthems like “A Milli” and “Got Money” to the swooning R&B inspired tracks like “Comfortable” and “Tie My Hands”, Mr. Carter’s lyrics are clever and well thought out (in most instances). “Dr. Carter” is the most lyrically complete track, where Lil’ Wayne acts as a doctor operating on Hip-Hop itself. The albums single, “Lollipop” almost gets lost among the other tracks, fitting in perfectly and becoming surprisingly less annoying when listened to in succession with the rest of the album. Overall, this is a very cohesive album that flows together very well and is enjoying to listen to. Lil’ Wanye might not be the next Nas or KRS-One but this album will definitely live up to the hype that has surrounded it for nearly three years. Favorite Tracks: “Mr. Carter” “Phone Home” “Tie My Hands”

D’Evil Rating: 9/10
