Aubrey with a fitted? Didn’t see that one coming. On the flip side, Chris Brown’s cover was revealed on the E! network. Check that out after the jump. VIBE

Here’s a taste.

I warned ya. SMH.

Yup, it’s as bad as you remember it. Good thing this didn’t make the final cut on Graffiti. This is a dud off the Deluxe Edition. Not Ok, Lupe. Apologize. Sorry: Buck Marley

Damn these wacky foreign variety shows. That’s for sprayin’ not swallowin’, son. Curtis’ reaction is priceless. Props: Sean The Robot

[vodpod id=Groupvideo.4079114&w=425&h=350&fv=] This looks pre-recorded, but Scottie woke up early one morning and perform Man on The Moon‘s next single. Emo rap before noon. FTW?

Guess it’s family business day. Here’s Zeke’s take on the Dip Set split. Always sad to see a crew fall apart. Props: Splash

One of the greatest videos of all-time. Of all-time!

Guess C Webb saw the video yesterday. The former baller turned NBA analyst cites Cuban Linx 2’s track 11 to describe the Lakers dominance in the league. Nice look for the Chef.

Here are the two hip-hop features on CB’s disc droppin’ next week. Plies is on the former and Trey and Game add on to the latter. Runners did the first track and Polow Da Don and his big-ass winter coat did the other. Got it? Good. “What I Do” “Wait”

[vodpod id=Groupvideo.4064236&w=425&h=350&fv=] In the continuation of his sitdown with the Life Files, The Comissioner addresses addresses moguls on the rise, Nas’ passion for turning down business deals and if well cooked rap beef still sells in 2009. Props: It’s The Life Previously: Pt.1

And another one bites the dust. Alicia Keys graces the cover of the final issue of GIANT due Dec 15. After that, it’s strictly an on-line product at the url above. Times are hard on the boulevard.

For those keeping score, this is Dwayne’s fourth seed. Sidebar: Miss Info has a definitive guide of dude’s procreation. Sidebar 2: Three baby mamas on one page.

The streets are saying he’s flipped the switch to Power 105.1

Em said he didn’t count the Drake posse cut, so it looks like Weezy’s wish has finally come true. On Rebirth, Marshall and Wayne collaborated on the song “Drop The World”. Can you feel the magic? Hear it for yourself on December 21st. Props: Neil Dhanda

[vodpod id=Groupvideo.4020288&w=425&h=350&fv=m%3D384975%26type%3Dvideo%26a%3D0] After being rejected by the Knicks and no team seeming willing for his services this season, a report has surfaced that A.I. is callin’ it quits. Obviously, the news is spreading quickly and has touched the hip-hop community who view Bubba Chuck as one of their own. Damn shame. Hopefully this isn’t really the end. UPDATE: Guess it’s official. Here’s his statement. SMH.

As you saw in my previous Ri-Ri report, this is more my Twitter-like in-the-moment observations than a full-scale review. Burr! Be clear: Album in stores December 8th. December 8. December 8. Decemburrr 8th. 1. “Classical (Intro)” (Producer: Drumma Boy) Shit sounds real opera-like as the title implies. Caught a Pac Man Jones reference. “Nothin Kanye could tell me.” He’s a “Convicted felon” and “Nothing’s gonna stop” him. Good intro. 2. “Interlude: Toilet Bowl Shawty/Mike Epps” Like Tracy Morgan, I don’t […]

I recently saw Calvin in the NYC so I kind of knew what to expect from his set. Thankfully, he had a few surprises like a performance of his new Rob Base-inspired heater. I like this joint a lot. On the other side, special guests Too $hort and the Lady of Rage pop up. Ain’t nuthin’ like a gangsta party.

So Saturday night before I hit the AMA’s, I was in the Yay Area for the final date of the “How The West Was One” Tour. Although the homie Nipsey Hussle got tangled with the jakes, I still had a good ole time. Here’s Mr. David Blake runnin’ through his classic “Born and Raised In Compton”. After the jump, another one of his biggest hits, “Tonight”.
