We had a whole lot of superstars on this stage here tonight. But this is… Papoose's house? We're all still reeling that the 20th anniversary of Hip-Hop's Super Bowl featured the Nacirema Dream as a headliner. Damn you Kendrick Lamar and your generous ways. Yeah it's hip-hop to bum rush the show but c'mon Pap you know you didn't deserve that look. And you gave even less fucks by performing a new song. C'mon fam. You've paid a lot of dues through the years but this was the big dawg time in the program. Don't disrespect the game in your pursuit for fame. Oh well, Brooklyn took it.
Speaking of BK, Fab had a master plan of bringing Lil Kim and Foxy Brown back together again. But when it was time to make history, Fox Boogie was nowhere to be found. Where was you at? Wack.
Flashback to a James Todd who wasn’t too please with the boys right to party!

RIP MCA, one of the illest.
^ at least he over that and paying respect ands saying good stuff now, uh?
He seem so sincere about it too, he was holding tears over it.
That aside, he used Beastie Boy as example of discrimination, but at same time saying their reckless ways on tour made if hard for him cause of how they did, in the same interview he gave them props for what they did in hip hop. He was just upset with how their behavior was making it hard.
LL actually handled it maturely and spoke his mind.
Didn’t the beasties get LL signed to Def Jam? As Rock gave Rick Rubin his demo tape or pulled it out of the bin or something like that.
R.I.P. MCA Mr. Adam Yauch BeastieBoys taught us how to fight for our right to party and for that, yo have to love em, who else would have people rocking a Free Tibet shirt before we starting rocking Free Gucci Mane Shirts, also inspired Jim Jones to direct all the Dip Set videos like he did with the Beastie Boy’s, and who cannot appreciate that Crunk Music video with Remy and the Lezzies
R.I.P. Mr. Yauch you will forever be missed
That shit gotta hit LL to the BONE.
When u come up with someone and they pass, that shit hurts man.
