Meek Mill At Delaware State University

Friday, October 22 2010 2:33 PM EST | Posted by: B.Dot | Posted in: Blog, Live Show

Last Saturday, Meek Mill performed at my alama mater’s homecoming concert in Dover, Delaware. If you didn’t know better, you would’ve thought he was the headliner. He ran through some underground favorites and knocked out tri-state hit, “Rose Red“. How long until it impacts New York is anybody’s guess.

Vado On Huddy 6 Passing

Friday, October 22 2010 1:03 PM EST | Posted by: Big Homie | Posted in: Blog, True Story

On Monday, Harlem paid their respects to Huddy 6, who passed away in a car accident. Vado tells Rapfix that he doesn’t do too well at funerals, but attended the wake and parade. He also spoke on the night before.

“It really hit us, because he was out with us that night celebrating the release of Slime Flu at Perfection [nightclub]. “We had fun that night, we celebrated, we were going to celebrate that whole week. I woke up—I live in Edgewater, we got in the house at like 6 in the morning—I look outside I could see the whole George Washington bridge. You know, wild lights, helicopters, I’m like ‘What’s going on? What happened on the bridge?’ Mind you, I didn’t know nothing yet, I did Hot 97 that morning and I was supposed to do Envy [at Power 105] at 1, so I went home to to get some rest and my phone started blowing up. I missed like 100 calls. Then I’m hearing it, and I’m like ‘You can’t be serious.’ “

Kanye West Explains Album Title Change

Friday, October 22 2010 12:11 PM EST | Posted by: Amaya | Posted in: Blog, Focus

In this portion of Kanye’s interview with MTV , he xplains why he changed his album title from Good Ass Job to My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

“I remember I just changed it because I didn’t want to do the Good Ass Job thing and have to stick to the skits and everything that went with that. My Beautiful Dark Fantasy and my album cover are just … those things are just awesome. It’s really proper, decadent, soulful lavishness, and it’s exactly what I wanna say.”
