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.
Success is a slow process, but that’s not stopping Bleek from releasing new material. Here’s another freebie courtesy of the Memph man.
Two days ago, producer Sha Money XL talked to kids at the engineering school, SAE Institute in New York. He spoke on his rise to Senior Vice President of A&R at Island Def Jam and then, brought the children into the studio. Each one teach one.

To celebrate the release of W.A.R., Hot 97 sponsored Pharoahe Monch’s concert at S.O.B.’s last night in NYC. Backed by supreme vocalists Mela Machink and Showtyme, Monch performed some oldies but goodies and new material. He also brought out Immortal Technique, Styles P, and Jean Grae to help him out. It was a great show, but if you missed out check out more film below.
Move over Iceberg Slim. At a recent event, Short Dawg told Hiphollywood that he’s penning a book. He wouldn’t reveal if it’s an autobiography, but he did say the story needed to be told. Eventually, it will be sold too. Sidebar: Raekwon Writing Book Too

Man, this drop from Masspike Miles is seriously smooth from start to finish. The Road Less Traveled totally delivers on that signature R&B vibe, and the production choices across these tracks are just insane. It honestly feels more complete than a lot of full-length albums out right now. Tracks like "Devoted" with Bun B and the title track hit different when you are just cruising around the city late at night. If you are heading out to grab the physical copy or hitting up a late-night listening session across town, trying to flag down reliable taxi services can sometimes be a real hassle, so planning ahead definitely saves the mood. Overall, this project proves why he is such a vital part of the Maybach crew. Definitely keep this one on repeat for a while.
