Late last Thursday I was the special guest of Combat Jack’s PNC Radio show and, honestly, he and Dallas Penn grilled me with a gang of questions about the past, present and future. I think this is one of the best interviews I’ve ever given and I hope you take the time to listen to the excellent and exhaustive conversation. Hey, it’s the weekend, what the fuck else you got to do? Ha!

Hot 97’s DJ Enuff gave this a spin this afternoon and Omen got his hands on the MP3. Produced by Bink, this is a pretty lackluster track from Foxx featuring the Teflon Don and a Biggie sample. A bad combination. Still and all, Jamie’s Body album drops Dec 14. I hope the Drake written “Fall For Your Type” makes the cut.
Once again, it’s on. Here’s the second release off Rap Radar’s The Mixtape Of The Year. On the remix to his strong single, Gangsta Gibbs gets grimey with some heavyweight assistance from the homies of Duck Down. It gets no more underground than this. Get your mean mug on. Props to Green Lantern and DJ Drama. Cuttin’, scratchin’, and drops? Stop your bloodclot cryin’. Ha! Previously: “Joell Christopher”
It appears Diddy’s loss is Dru Ha’s gain, as Black Rob has inked up with Duck Down Records. In a statement, BR explains why he signed with the label: “If I’m going independent why not go with a team I respect, and they have always had a true family setting & environment.” Banco’s third album, Game Tested & Street Approved drops next year and will feature production from from Buckwild, Scram Jones and Pete Rock.
Although T.I.’s due in court this Friday to deal with his own legal drama, he took some time this afternoon to assist the authorities in rescuing a man who was threatening to jump off a downtown Atlanta building. Call me skeptical but this shit is crazy. TMZ has the details: It all went down earlier this afternoon — when cops responded to a 911 call about a man who was threatening to jump off a building in downtown Atlanta … […]
Whoa. Holy posse cut, Batman. Busta’s new Conglomerate artist gets some major support on the remix to his street heat rock. Guess Kanye ain’t the only one who brings folks together. Ha! Sidebar: Meth went in! Only right.

So did Charlamagne. Nice to see two hall of famers, Cube and Run and their children get busy on some pass the mic shit. Pardon the Rev for recycling a verse from well over a decade ago. I actually taped the clip below when I was 16 or 17. Sometimes it pays to be an old head. Ha! I […]

So I was inspecting my Drake CD packaging today (you get to when you actually purchase music) and noticed an additional vocals credit to Mary J. Blige on TML‘s track 7. Not covered in the otherwise extensive and excellent making of piece in Complex (NCB and the crew are focused daily), was that apparently Swizzie offered the Queen this track first. Hmm. Anyways, I think with 40’s breakdown added to it, this song ended up where it needed be. No […]
