West Coast Mythbusters: Bishop Lamont Still Signed
Another day, another dollar wild internet rumor. Looks like somebody with too much time on their hands and not enough common sense decided that spreading a rumor about Bishop Lamont being dropped from Aftermath was a good idea. I’ve confirmed from multiple sources that Bishop Lamont is indeed still signed to Aftermath Records.

Bishop Lamont Dropped from Aftermath?
Rumors are floating around the web today that Bishop Lamont has been dropped from Aftermath Records. Note that these are simply rumors right now and I’ve sent a message to Bishop’s camp to try and get some sort of comment. If it’s true, its a tad strange as Bishop left for a European tour on [...]
Bishop Lamont speaks on Grow Up “Mistake”
LA Weekly recently wrote an article about the resurgence of hip hop on the West Coast. It’s a great article and ou should peep the whole thing by clicking here. I’ve been saying it for a while that we’re doing much better and it’s great to see mainstream outlets pick up on the fact. One [...]
Dr. Dre: Bishop’s Grow Up was a Mistake; Detox 75% Done
Vibe Magazine recently put out it’s 15th anniversary issue. It’s got interviews with a bunch of huge names and is actually worth purchasing. Among other things, the issue had a brief interview with Dr Dre. The interview covered a few interesting tidbits (did you know that Dre considers the Marshall Mathers LP his best album?) [...]
Bishop Lamont - Grow Up (Produced by Dre)
So Bishop Lamont’s first single premiered on California radio last night. It’s called Grow Up and it’s produced by Dr Dre. Like most people, I was expecting a How We Do or In Da Club type track but Bishop really brought something out of left field and I love it. Dues have been paid, plans [...]
Bishop Lamont’s Internet Marketing = WIN

The marketing for this tape [...]

First, Scott Storch is being [...]
Wiz Khalifa Ft. G Malone & Bishop Lamont - Say Yeah Remix [AUDIO]
I really like where the New West is headed. They can take a song that sounds like something Eurotrash would play in their Peugeot on the way to Lé Discotch, and make it hot. Take for example the Wiz Khalifa track Say Yeah. I’ll be brutally honest:I’ve never heard of Wiz Khalifa and I still [...]

Bishop Lamont Talks about The Confessional Delay
Bishop Lamont has been killing it with the mixtapes. Ni**er Noise and Caltriot both had some heaters on them and they got a good amount of play from me. Bishop was supposed to release his upcoming mixtape The Confessional with DJ Whoo Kid last Sunday, but it got delayed to June 10th. I’ve included a [...]
