Convention Center. Guests included Game, Lupe Fiasco, Layzie Bone, Don Magic Juan, and DJ Quik, who introduced Nate’s son, Nigel for a performance of “Regulate”. mtv Previously: Public Wake l Funeral
Instead of pulling a lucky fan on stage, Nicki switched things up last night at the Nassau Coliseum in NY by grinding on the bossman to Gyptian’s tune. Hold yuh self Weezy.
The Kentucky Wildcats advanced to the Final Four yesterday after pouncing on the North Carolina Tarheels (76-69). Following their victory, Jay-Z congratulated the team inside their locker room. This isn’t the first rapper with an affinity for the Wildcats though. Last year, Drake met with head coach John Calipari. Below guard Darius Miller speaks on meeting Hov.
For his latest video to accompany the title track off his latest mixtape, the Based God reflects on his struggles and pain. This is black hoodie rap.

[vodpod id=Video.5857056[vodpod id=Video.5857056&w=540&h=350&fv=%26rel%3D0%26border%3D0%26] Nicki had a few tricks up her sleeve as well this evening. During her set, she surprised the Nassau Coliseum by bringing out Ludacris for “My Chick Bad”. What I should of done was zoomed in on Nicki’s ass. My bad.
[vodpod id=Video.5857082&w=540&h=350&fv=%26rel%3D0%26border%3D0%26] Earlier, Mr. Carter’s I Am Music 2 Tour made its stop at the Nassau Coliseum on Long Island. Luckily, I was able to catch some nice footage from the show. Above Weezy brought out Busta as they recited their verses off their Breezy-collab. Look at me now from the 11th row. Ha!
Khalifa still has Cabin Fever and after releasing the remix of its final cut with Young Jeezy last week, the pair have already began shooting the scenes behind it. Better roll out the yellow tape.
Aside from leading the pack with six nods, Aubrey Graham had the hosting duties for this evening’s 2011 Juno Awards and was a hit with this hilarious skit. Looks like something that should tickle YN‘s fancy. UPDATE: Unfortunately, Drake went home empty-handed again.
There’s no place like home and last night, Lupe continued the celebration of his latest release at the House of Blues in the Windy City. Catch “Words I Never Said” up top and more clips below. Lasers in stores now.
This was a solid piece, especially how it highlights Benny The Butcher’s personality and presence during the car interview. I like how it shows a more relaxed, real side of him while still keeping that raw energy he is known for. It’s interesting to see how artists can express themselves differently in casual settings compared to a studio or stage environment. It also made me think about how comfort and setup matter in everyday situations, not just in music or media. For example, when you spend a lot of time in a vehicle, small upgrades can really improve the experience. Something like kei truck seat covers can help keep things comfortable and protect your seats at the same time. It’s all about finding ways to improve both comfort and longevity in whatever you use daily.
