Red Cafe, “Here To Get Money” MP3
- story Felipe Delerme
If a certain editor is to be believed, Red Cafe is the future of Brooklyn rap. Though, if a certain editor’s friends are to be believed, Cafe is Brooklyn rap past, having already made numerous foray’s into the matrix dating back to DJ Clue tapes. But why can’t he be both? Over the course of his career’s atypically slow gestation, Cafe has improved steadily as both a songwriter and jewelry model, integral pieces of rap superstardom. “Here To Get Money” is another peg in his mission of Brooklyn glam reclaiming a place in the national rap scope. Below you can also grab “I Tote Guns,” a song whose Biggie sample makes it exceptionally club-ready despite it’s gun-tote posture. On another note, we will continue to use this Red Cafe picture until summer ends or until he stops releasing jams, whichever comes first.

This is a different look for Diddy, hanging out in front of cheap motels and all. Fab too, probably. Is that what took so long for the video to come out? Was there some kind of “Hate Me Now” crucifixion scene condemnation, Diddy demanding last minute re-edits, only to realize popping champagne with Red Cafe wouldn’t be quite as easy as it was with Steve Stoute? That’s not how it works with the “Hottest In The Hood.” But also, we could’ve sworn we were getting a Fab verse out of this.

Red Cafe signed to Bad Boy and we collectively put our head in our hands. Cafe’s ground-up ascension as a New York City hero was well earned, but what has Diddy done for anyone not named Diddy lately? His new show is called “Making His Band,” for goodness sakes, finally acknowledging the actual focus of the entire series: Preserving Diddy’s sexy and moisturizing his situation. Cafe made some great decisions on his own so we’re not sure who to attribute him linking up with Pete Rock to, but it’s clear NY’s Finest still got it.

Everyone on this song has made individual songs that we’ve jammed, all probably in the last week alone, or maybe we’re just overlooking our undying allegiance to DJ Enuff’s “Rush Hour,” but holy shit, Loso is on fire right now.
