Spitta headlined a concert last night at Reggie’s Rock Club in Chicago and totally took the concert to the next level. Performing songs from previous mixtapes, from the much anticipated Smokee Robinson…the crowd was super hyped to see the New Orleans native rock the show last night, knowing many of the songs that Spitta performed in his hour long set.

After the jump, check out Currensy performing “Count My Money” & “Car Service”.

They say that behind every great man is a great woman. The same can be said that behind every great song is a great writer. An example of a great song writer is Robin Thicke. After writing songs for Jennifer Hudson, Usher, Lil Wayne, etc., Robin is out to claim his own piece of the pie. And with his song “Sex Therapy” currently #1 on Billboard, he wants a huge piece of that pie.

G.O.O.D music artist Consequence talks about his upcoming projects, his early rap days, Cons TV, Banana Republic, and more

Now check out the full interview and find out how Lenny went from handing out promotional CD’s for Bad Boy Records in the early days to traveling the world with Jay-Z.

After we get his story Lenny opens up his vault which is one of most tightly guarded stashes of photos in the entertainment industry. Some of the shots he shows for the first time ever include a very young Usher with Busta Rhymes at Diddy’s birthday party, Kanye West and Amber Rose sharing a private moment and the photo he says was his favorite ever of Roc-a-fella Records CEO’s Jay-Z, Damon Dash and Kareem Burke.
