After being spotted with Justin Bieber, Diddy, Rick Ross, T.I. and many others the other night at Vanquish nightclub, Trinidad James is back in the headlines for something that's not so much fun.
Hip-hop artists stunt exceptionally well at the best of times. Whether it’s dope performances, providing quality albums, or being trendsetters, there’s always a lot to be celebrated within rap music.
Trinidad James sparked a minor controversy this year when he suggested that southern hip hop "ran" New York. We heard some responses from NY artists on the comments (Maino most visibly), but haven't heard from anyone from Atlanta, who Trinidad seemed to be speaking for.
With it being the Holiday Season and all, Trinidad Jame$ goes over his favorite holiday pick-ups.

As we've reported, Trinidad Jame$ is feeling a bit of heat for a comment he made at a recent gig in Brooklyn: "Us in the South, we run y'all musically."

![Cover of Trinidad Jame$ Talks Drug Culture In Hip Hop, Says "Don’t Blame No Rapper" For Lack Of Self-Control](http://thumbs.hh.ulximg.com/public/article/140_1369423821_18b94e09f944b8bdc3e9e8b7b67e287f.jpeg "Cover of Trinidad Jame$ Talks Drug Culture In Hip Hop, Says "Don’t Blame No Rapper" For Lack Of Self-Control")
There are more than a few quotables from Trinidad Jame$' hit single "All Gold Everything", but one line stands out in particular. Between the catchiness in his delivery and the trendiness of the subject, "Popped a molly, I'm sweatin'" quickly became more inescapable than the song itself.
There's quite a bit of repetition in the game these days, and specific lyrics tend to get overlooked. This is an opportunity to take a closer listen and really consider what these artists have to say. We encourage your opinions.
