Slaughterhouse Freestyle (Cipha Sounds & Rosenberg)
alt

Been trying to get the MP3 of this all week. The story goes Slaughterhouse was booked for Hot 97’s new morning show, Cipha Sounds and Rosenberg. But because Mouse didn’t want to speak on the Raekwon situation, they shelved the sitdown. They did get them to freestyle over “The What” instrumental and played it on the air which I heard half-asleep one morning. Got it? Either way, just listen to 3/4ths of Slaughterhouse play pass the mic. Too bad Joell needed a lozenge. Ha! No shots.

Sidebar: The Internets are warring over the Slaughterhouse sub-par SoundScan performance. Pretty entertaining stuff. I may weigh in with my take next week. 

De La Soul “Rock Co.Kane Flow” (Live N.Y.)

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6138656] 

“We De La til the death/ Or at least until we break-up.”

Look at the dopeness I’ve found. In my book, this Grind Date closer was the last great De La Soul record. Yeah I said it. Of course, MF Doom is missed from last week’s show at the Nokia Theater, but the brothers from Long Island still bring the stop-and-go craziness. Freeze!

And if that ain’t good enough, here’s the album version.

Bonus: More De La live with crisp audio.

Tony Yayo Feels Sorry For Young Buck
alt

Don’t get it twisted. Pity is way worse than hate. Here the Talk of New York expresses some remorse over G-Unit’s estranged solider, Young Buck.

[vodpod id=ExternalVideo.890844&w=425&h=350&fv=]  

“Shout to Young Buck,” Yayo said standing in the G-Unit offices earlier this week. “I wish you was with us, getting some money, living the life.”

Has Yayo’s stance actually softened towards Buck after all this time? His response to the Cashville rapper’s recent words on cyberspace was, “When I see it, I feel a little sorry for him, because he could be taking the same advantages I’m taking.”

“Buck, I think he’s at a point where financially, I don’t think he got it, homie,” Tony explained. “What are you doing? I don’t see him anywhere. Even when you don’t see me, Yayo’s in Peru getting a nice check with 50. You can call it whatever you wanna call it; I’m still buying cars, Louis glasses, Porsches. If Buck was around, he would still have these outlets available to him.” 

Sorry, David Brown.
