[vodpod id=Video.4203181&w=425&h=350&fv=] Here’s more footage from Wale’s mixtape release party last week. Check out this viral vid of Mr. Folarin performing his favorite track off More About Nothing. Do remember (DJ Clue style): We’re making history next Monday at the Highline Ballroom. We’re sold out but if you’re nice to me, maybe we can work something out. Ha! 2db Previously: Wale At The Commonwealth In D.C.

During Funk Flex’s birthday party at Webster Hall last night, Fat Joe brought out French Montana. During his performance of “Hard In The Paint”, he was pelted with ice from the mezzanine. Apparently, Jim Jones and his crew were the alleged culprits. C’mon guys, chill out! pds via Mazi-O

In another interview from the making of How To Rap, the legendary Juice Crew MC explains how a fellow member’s loss was his gain. Shit, this is one of the greatest joints of all-time. I dare you to disagree kids. Previously: Pharoahe On “Simon Says”

Video vixen Cubana Lust co-stars in La Flare’s latest visual off that Burrprint 2. Don’t be paranoid young hustlers, The Appeal will be here this September. Or maybe a lil later. Ha. wshh

Here’s an early look at the upcoming ep where Kaseem speaks on DJing clubs despite being underaged. YBF has some flicks of the young’n from back in the days.

“I hate the shit you do.” Another day, another Drake reference track leak. Word on the curb is that this is gonna be off Drizzy’s upcoming R&B mixtape. If there truly is such a thing on the way. Stay tuned. hithiphop Sidebar: The Drake/Clipse tour we told ya about is officially on. Dates on the other side.

Flex got the call but DJ Clue got the debut of the first single off Wayne’s upcoming I’m Not A Human Being EP droppin’ on his born day, September 27th. If you recall, Drizzy gave Westwood a sample of the lyrics two months ago. muzikfiendz UPDATE: Dirty CDQ version has arrived splash

It’s goin’ down–basement. This Thursday, Marshall and Rihanna’s visual premieres at 9 pm on MTV and Vevo. Directed by Joseph Khan. And now, a word from Mr. Mathers: “Joseph and I worked pretty closely together to make sure we got this right,” commented Eminem.  “Trying to make this tough subject work visually is a challenge.  It was great to have Rihanna, Megan and Dominic on board for this….they really brought it and made this video super-powerful.”

Karen Civil gave me the heads up on this a week ago when it was recorded. In support of his site’s launch, Flex got to talk to Weezy live from Rikers and Mr. Carter speaks on Eminem, Drake, Nicki Minaj and his daily operation in the bing. 94 days to go! Carter IV on the way. Inflexwetrust

Guess Fif wasn’t feelin’ that “we gonna throw the biggest party when Curtis dies” line, huh? Mr. Jackson gets his YouTube thuggery on to attack Crack’s rumored album sales. I don’t know what the final SoundScan number is gonna be, but regardless, Joe’s legacy isn’t defined by album sales. He’s still the most important Latino in hip-hop history and a Hall Of Famer in my book. Chew on that, commenters! Sidebar: I saw that episode of Intervention and that show […]

It’s what you all been waitin’ for ain’t it?! No Attention Deficit wasn’t the worldwide smash Wale would’ve liked it to be but what doesn’t kill you can only make you stronger. Mr. Folarin has come back with a strong project that I’m proud to be affiliated with. I really enjoyed More About Nothing and I know you will as well. So learn the words, you might sing this and join us on Aug 16 at the Highline to celebrate […]

[sparkart-clique site=”rap_radar” video=”drakeover”] After throwing the ultimate 1-2 punch (Em and Jay), Drizzy Drake closed the show like the champion he is. Like he says at the end, Mr. Graham is the first Canadian rapper to go platinum in the USA. If you don’t respect that, your whole perspective is wack. UPDATE: After the show, Drizzy thanked his fans.
