Landing in the DMV area this weekend, Mr. Mescudi performed at DC 101’s MTV Halloween Ulalume Festival at the Merriweather Post Pavillion in Columbia, MD last night. Above, he recites his verse off The Blueprint 3. I heard some people were aggy that his set was pretty short. Howard Univ.’s homecoming is going on this weekend and he had one of many parties to attend. Spotted: DatNewCudi

While visiting his friend’s city for HU’s homecoming, Ludacris shared with the world his weekend digs. That pool table’s no ball breaker. Sidebar: As you can see below from Yardfest yesterday, he also rolls with one of HU alumni’s finest. Jodi, you lost.

Boosie appeared on The Deal a couple of days ago and said it was Drake’s delivery that earned him a nomination for Best Lyricist at BET’s Hip Hop Awards. He mentions a lot of videos being shot, singles being dropped and a DVD I probably won’t cop as he prepares for his time behind bars. He also speaks on Eminem, 2Pac, and how he doesn’t really keep it lyrical in his music. Oh, really? Props: Yardie

Before taking the stage yesterday at Howard Homecoming’s Yardfest, the Thornton brothers make it clear that this one’s for the house of YN and B.Dot. Heads up: EZ

Usually the behind the scenes comes out before the video. Still, this is actually some pretty nice eye-candy viewing here. Cameras catch Ms. Keys on her set while creating her first visual for The Element Of Freedom. Damn you, Mr. Dean. Spotted: Amajanese

Damn, the Brooklyn free agent grabs the fork and takes a bite out of Curtis’ track. Ortiz basically laced a hot beat with some mo’ hot bars. “Whoever want a part of me/ I pre-apologize, pardon me for puttin’ shells in every artery retardedly/ If you crack then I’m a non-stop pharmacy/ Over-the-counter drugs that give ya ears plugs harmony/ I war in an armory, ain’t nobody harmin’ me/ I guess that’s the James Bond in me/ The young Sean Connery” Voice’s […]

On the Cleveland leg of the Blueprint 3 tour, Hov, Skateboard P and various homies sipped some bubbly backstage. Mrs. James was in the building as well. ‘Bron looks pretty blue there. Groupies get no wins on this night, kids. More after the jump. Spotted: YBF

“I put that on my mama, hoe.” Memphis’ own Yo Gotti takes no shorts on his latest and gets an approved stamp. No flag on the play. Mixtape on the way. If he can find someone to put it out. Props: X via Digi 360

Dre just liberated two cuts off Ruck’s October 27th release, Kimbo Price: The Prelude to Mic Tyson. In the first round, P takes M.O.B.B’s cinematic track and goes in. Round 2, it’s lights out as Nickel Nine and Petro step into the ring. Iron Mike cameos included. P! “You get madd glory/ And your flow is mad corny/ Ya tight ass clothes put you in the fag category”—Sean “The Internet trying to indict a man/ The web changing the world like […]

[vodpod id=Groupvideo.3728770&w=425&h=350&fv=] After receiving the word on Weezy’s situation, B.o.B. chops it up with VladTV and shares his thoughts on the matter. He basically feels that hip-hop artists have become so powerful and influential that they often have to face huge opposition and become targets. He also draws comparisons to his Grand Hustle boss, T.I.’s case. You keep your nose clean, Bobby Ray.
