Man, this is dope. Not only does the Speed Demon take us back with Das EFX’s classic, but he pushes the envelope on what it means to spit over these vintage instrumentals. Twista really took it to a whole different level with an old sound and lyrics that scar and kill. The Dark Horse coming [...]

Sadly, switching over certain things on SD yesterday deleted two days worth of posts. It’s really annoying and as much as I want to re-blog everything separately, I don’t have the time. Shame because I had some really dope posts. So, I’m just compiling a bunch of links from the weekend. Apologies to anybody for the inconvenience. [...]

Harlem meets the South meets Chicago. Wale gave the beat a few chin checks yesterday, and now Twista comes through with the finishing blows Mortal Kombat style. Dark Horse coming later this year and a mixtape with Don Cannon coming sooner. I swore he also had a Gangsta Grillz done or in the works too. Twista [...]

My favorite recent collaboration from DJ Kay Slay now gets a visual with all four artists showing off their speed demons. That Busta verse is so mean! One of his greatest double time ones. Rhyme Or Die is coming soon. Previously: DJ Kay Slay Ft. Ace Hood, Gunplay & Torch – Got Damn

The Mid-West Speed Demon must’ve had his verse ready for when Rick Ross dropped his remix. He adds on to Rozay’s. I love when remixes enhance the record so much. These two made it better than original, which kept most of T.I.’s record to begin with. Shouts to FSD. Twista – I’m Flexin’ Freestyle Previously: [...]

Like a lot of Waka Flocka songs, I think this one really takes time to grow on you. After the constant remixes, I’m starting to like it. Twista replaces the man and keeps Drizzy for a nice remix. I wonder what the status of Twista’s upcoming mixtape is at this point. Twista – Round Of [...]

Keeping it all the way honest, I wasn’t a fan of Mike Posner. I still can’t say it but I’m liking this record. Mr. Posner is dropping The Layover on November 20. Here’s the second single with a guest feature from Twista. Above, he explains the concept behind the track. Mike Posner Ft. Twista – [...]

Label issues always get in the way of the original vision for artists. When The Perfect Storm was being made, T-Pain was the first choice for Twista’s single. Lo and behold, the clearance never happened. He did other versions with Jeremih and Ben One before settling on Chris Brown, a wise move. Give thanks to [...]

As The Epidemic draws near, Pill continues to flood us with new heat. This new banger features the likes of Twista, as the backdrop is a parking lot. I’ve been in enough hoods and to enough clubs to know that the parking lot down south is crazy. The let for parties is ridiculous. But [...]

Twista does a number on this one. The quick flow spitting MC gives us a nice set of bars, as he hits us off with the unofficial remix to Frank Ocean’s “Thinking About You” track. The original version with Frank Ocean by himself was dope, and this one is cool too. Frank Ocean Ft. Twista– [...]
