You know YN had to have some flip cam of his new favorite single. I personally prefer the studio version but hey, why nitpick. You did it Ahmir! Persistence overcomes resistance. Ha!
Sidebar: A gang of Ghost footage in the stash.

Double R is everywhere! Here’s the highlight of last night’s Diesel show. LV Don guy popped up to support the D-Boys from VA. Too bad his mic was fucked up. Oh well, everyone was too drunk by then to notice. Roots clip on the way.
Oh boy. Marshall’s back at it again. Guess he wasn’t feelin’ the “Obsessed” song and vid. Ha!

It seems like The Birthday Sex kid’s buzz has come and gone. Get it? Nevermind. Lil J appears destined for a one hit wonder legacy. ‘Member that song by who… I don’t have exact SoundScan numbers, but as far as I know he’s not exactly burnin’ up the charts. I haven’t listened to his album and I can’t get anyone on the RR staff to, so I’ll reserve final judgment until then. Still, it’s not lookin’ good for dude. Bet you Terius Hagert is a happy fuck. Milian and all. Ha!

In one of the music industry’s worst kept secrets, Weezy and Madge made some music together. Their joint, “Revolver” is the second single from her upcoming greatest hits album, Celebration (No Kool & The Gang). Will drop in Sept. and there will most likely will be a visual. How excited are you?

A week ago in the Windy City there was a Red Bull Big Tune Beat Battle (yeah I don’t know what that is either?) and it basically gave Just Blaze a chance for a free trip OT to cop some more Polo. Still, later at the Metro, he found time to throw down at the 4:30 mark with one of my favorite groups, Little Brother. Yeah, that’s my tongue planted firmly in cheek.

“Get your chain tooken.”
The good folks over at the.LIFE Files got footage of the Sore Loser’s upcoming Nike commercial where the Roc Boy is rockin’ out to Jigga’s latest. See that video appearance wasn’t just a favor. Ha!

Seriously, who can keep up with all the fools in Weezy’s army. There’s the Drake and that hot girl that got the Internets in a frenzy. That’s it, that’s all, single, no more, no less. Ha! Have you even met Sylvia Rhone? Smh.
Seriously: Just a lil tough love from the old grumpy guy. Prove YN wrong, kids. I look forward to the comp in November. A lil’ greasy talk just might make your shit tighter.

Endless crazy Wu stories from the Chef. Sorry, I missed the event last night, but the rain had me shook. I’m sure some video will pop, up but Ming Tzu recorded the entire audio. He’s a great Asian man.
Props: Grand Good
Bonus: The Chef cooks up a medley with the Cypher. Dallas shot Shallah kickin’ the other MCs verses like he wrote ’em. Ill.

“Y’all make some noise for Belvedere one time.”
Ch-ching! This was all good and shot just a week ago. Jizzle gettin’ his pre-game America’s Most Wanted Tour set-list on. Hey the rain’s depressing, I could use a lil d-boy boost, how ’bout you?
Bonus: Da Snowman tries to save Ricky’s crew from mediocrity.
Seeing Alicia Keys on Japanese television was such a treat! The performance had amazing energy and a unique vibe you don’t often catch outside Japan. I streamed it smoothly using my ip tv fire stick, which made the whole experience effortless. Definitely worth watching again.
