“11 straight summers” Hov kicked off the volume two leg of the BP3 tour last night at the Sunshine State’s Bank Atlantic Center. (Renamed the Jay-Z Center for this special occasion.) Good quality and noteworthy footage is comin’ through like a slow faucet, but Hov did touch up the setlist a bit. It’s interesting that Jeezy’s set is sandwiched between two of Jay’s. Don’t be late to the show. Ha!

In a sitdown with EW, Shallah explains his upcoming solo LP’s musical direction. What’s Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang? Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang is another album that I promised the fans a long time ago. It’s not nothing derogatory towards Wu. It’s just that Shaolin [i.e., Staten Island] is the place, Wu-Tang is the crew that came from […]

The big story today was Eldrick breaking his silence and addressing the shitstorm he’s caused over the past coupla months. No wifey wasn’t with him, but his mama was. Of course, Twitter was on fire with reactions and snaps. Here are the best tweets. Sidebar: Hey was Ash, right? Judge for yourself.

This is a great reminder of how powerful and lasting Lauryn Hill’s influence has been in music. The fact that The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill eventually reached diamond status after so many years shows that truly meaningful music can continue finding new listeners long after its original release. I also like how the article highlights the combination of hip hop, R&B, neo soul, and reggae that made the album so distinctive. Achieving more than 10 million sales is an incredible milestone, especially considering how much the music industry has changed since 1998. The album’s success feels less like a temporary trend and more like proof that strong songwriting and authentic artistic expression can remain relevant across generations. It is interesting to see how numbers can tell part of a story, whether we are looking at album sales or using a proportion calculator to understand relationships between different figures.
