Shoot and run? Hammer time? Razor blade cuts? Baseball bat swings? Curtis and his cronie terrorize the NYC streets. Violence at a hundred thousand trillion. If you scared, get a dog. ThisIs50 Bonus: Miss Info got that remix. Gucci!
[vodpod id=Groupvideo.3713982&w=425&h=350&fv=] At the Noisemakers event in his honor, Kweli took the time to acknowledge the eccentric genius that is Kanye West. The basic gist is that the Taylor Swift shit was nothing, he’s been buggin’ out since day one. Opening act nightmare. XXL
Damn, she’s everywhere. Yesterday, A Keys connected with the college kids at an NYU event moderated by MTV’s Sway (hey did homie get a haircut?). Above, courtesy of Amajanese, is her performing the Big Homie’s big hit and below, she speaks on balancing hard work and play for even greater productivity. Inspiration is a mutha.

This was the Big Apple show that got ole boy in trouble. Check the freestyle up top and watch Mr. West as guest, bless the proceedings. Can it be it was all so simple then? Sidebar: Doesn’t Ja Rule still have a pending gun charge from that same year? Brazil is callin’ you, buddy.
“Weezy F Baby. The F is for forensics.” Let the Weezy musical onslaught begin. It ain’t gonna stop til the bars shut. Clifford already designed the blueprint. 2010, here we come! “Wasted” “Swag Surfin” The Almighty X
Since there’s a demand on the Internets, here’s the official CDQ of the collabo we broke first here at the RR. Behind those drums, Travis Barker… You talkin’ about Travis Barker? Travis Barker is one bad muthafucka.
DubCNN got the scoop on Jayceon’s upcoming The R.E.D. Album. First off, dude wants to be called Game goin’ forward. Not The Game. Got it?

Shitload of other guest MCs on LP include Akon, Puff, Jeezy, Ross, and Sigel. Beats provided by Polow, Cool and Dre, Khalil, etc. Damn, any more questions? Update: Got one! […]
AP co-signs. Update: “No suit today, either?“ Update 2: No, not the hair!
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.
