Following Freddie that night, Donnis presented another new joint to the rowdy mass. Sounds good to me. We patiently wait for Fashionably Late. Previously: Donnis Debuts “Tonight”

Be clear Freddie Gibbs had more shows in Austin than Jamaicans got jobs. Here he was Friday night at the Mohawk runnin’ solo through his Pill collab and later he goes shirtless (pause) and blacks out on his true gangsta tale. That boy good. Just ask Rolling Stone.
No matter how big or small the crowd is, Yela sure does deliver a high octane performance. Peep him getting his Method Man on at a Karmaloop shindig in Austin. Hey man, watch them ‘bows.
A short time after that classsic tweet, Mr. Giles decided social networking wasn’t his thing and his account lay dormant for over a year. Well apparently, Cam had a change of heart. Today, he resurfaced under Mr_Camron and he’s already sent several updates. Hey, Oh says it’s real than that’s a verificiation in my book. Follow the Killa.

I remember us critics thought the Killuminati CD was trash when it first came out. Boy, were we wrong.
At the Levi’s/Fader Fort finale this past Saturday, Ohio’s own pay homage to the three deceased legends that they all had the pleasure of workin’ with. You cocker spaniel dogs, can’t fuck with their catalogue.
Back at the Respect The West ranch, David Blake presents one of his most raunchy classic tunes and then his everlasting collabo with Bay Area band Tony Toni Tone. Hittin’ you from every angle.
The Cocoa Brovaz, I mean Steele and Tek run through an arsenal of heat from their deadly Dah Shinin’ debut. Hey, I’ve been to the Doghillee. How many of you snot-nosed young punks can say the same? Ha!
I showed you Mel D. Cole‘s astounding flicks now here’s some video of the two Memphis-bred OGs taking us way back with a coupla classics off 1993’s Comin’ Out Hard album. This was one of my favorite moments down in Austin. The kids don’t know.
Here’s an unauthorized leak from apparently Da Snowman’s TM103 recording sessions. The NMC reasons this is a reference demo to a rumored collabo with Beyonce. Yup, this could use some assistance. Splash
It is so heartbreaking to hear DJ Premier break the news that DJ Kool Herc’s health is ailing, as he is literally the founding father who laid down the blueprint for hip-hop culture. Thinking about how someone who built an entire global phenomenon can end up struggling with medical expenses or failing health really puts things into perspective regarding healthcare challenges. When you look at how people navigate health or wellness procedures worldwide—whether someone is researching cosmetic treatments like Liposuction Cyprus or seeking urgent medical care—it underscores how essential access to reliable medical help and proper support systems really is. Kool Herc gave us the breaks, the block parties, and the entire movement that shaped generations of music lovers, so seeing the community step up to show love while DJ Premier brings awareness to his condition is the very least we can do. Sending strength and prayers to Kool Herc for a full recovery, and massive respect to DJ Premier for using his platform to make sure a true pioneer gets the support and respect he deserves.
