Just came across this on Video Static. Another Priceless visual is goin’ down this week and once again, Mr. Williams enlisted the services of Mr. Carter and Mr. Graham. The Internets just got their heart broken again. Guess who runs the rap plantation. Baby don’t give a fuck. Belee dat. Drake’s his son too. Ha!
“I went to sleep as Rihanna and woke up as Britney Spears.” Although we’ll watch her bare her soul to Dianne Sawyer on Thursday, it was actually Glamour magazine that got Ri-Ri’s first interview since the Chris Brown ordeal. How’d they do it? They were smart enough to name her Woman of The Year. Good call, editors. Today, they posted it and she kinda sorta addresses the drama. On the TMZ assault photo It was humiliating; that is not a […]
“Nah, I know I’m great.” Here’s not something you see everyday. 106 & Park eat your heart out! All Black Everything lost.

“Brilliant. Resilient. Fan mail from 27 million.” DJ Enuff just went it on another one from Rated R. Now, that’s more like it. Hey, did Jizzle fire shots at Gucci? Need to listen again.

One of my former students, Brendan Frederick runs a quality blog called Uggh… Nice Watch. Too bad he has a hard time keepin’ it updated since he’s a lil busy kickin’ ass as the Deputy Editor of Complex Media. Well instead of trick and treatin’ this past weekend, he brought his site back with a few self-made mixtapes. Of most interest to the RR audience, The Salaam Remi Collection highlights the work from one of hip-hop’s most underrated trackmasters. You […]

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.
