Roc Boy rationalizes his poor sportsmanship at the end of his exit interview. Anyway you spin it, dude played himself by not congratulating the Magic. He didn’t have to do it on the court, but then you don’t skip the press conference afterwards. In the words of Cam’ron, “U Mad!!!”

Black Star Reunion Show: “Definition” x “RE: DEFinition”

Although my back hurts and these niggas didn’t go on til 1:45 am, YN really enjoyed the show last night. Mos Def and Talib Kweli were in top form with Black Star album tracks, freestyles over classic breaks, and their biggest solo joints. And yes I shot the whole fuckin’ thing. Mucho footage on the way.

Jay-Z x UGK “Big Pimpin'” Live (BET)

Remember that 106 and Jay episode BET did awhile back? They fucked up and aired the same 45 minute segment—twice! Ha! Anyways, that’s the only time I recall Jay performin’ “Big Pimpin'” with both members of UGK. Bun B can prolly correct me if I’m wrong. Maybe it’s just the only time that we have footage of it. Enjoy. R.I.P., The Pimp.

B.Dot would never post this. Ha! This is actually a pretty good exchange between Busta and your favorite “journalist.” In the first clip, Vlad gets Bus to talk about L.O.N.S. beef with more details than I ever heard before. And after the jump, Trevor tells how Diddy got him to switch his style up and why he packs a machete. That’s right, a machete!

Update: Redman Interview (1992)

In one of his earliest interviews to promote his debut album, Redman takes the tissue out of his nose and talks about the drama of sample clearances around the two min mark. He says Quincy Jones charged him 60 K. Ouch.
