So I spent the day with Bun listening to Trill OG and he schooled me on a few things. Does anyone remember this session? Well that night, Drizzy and Bun knocked out three joints: “Put It Down,” which he debuts for me in the above clip; “It’s Been A Pleasure“, which is actually a Bun song with Drake on the hook (No Jeezy) and “All Night Long”. In the bottom clip, Bun explains how the latter turned into “Miss Me”. […]
I wish this joint was tighter but I’m happy Bazerk and the bunch are finally back. It’s been a long time. Only 19 years. Ha. Reminisce on the other side. Unkut

Jay Elect tells VIBE he’s gonna have a spot on 50 Cent’s upcoming Invitation Tour. I’m touring with G-Unit at the end of the month.

Royce tells XXL that he and his crew have laid vocals to an Em track produced by the Megatron Don. No word on where or if the song will find a home. “That day was like a regular Slaughterhouse day on steroids,” he said. “We came in there. Just Blaze was sitting there. The beat is up. The beat is retarded. Em’s vocals were already laid. His verse is ridiculous, so you could imagine the kind of pressure that we […]

It is so heartbreaking to hear DJ Premier break the news that DJ Kool Herc’s health is ailing, as he is literally the founding father who laid down the blueprint for hip-hop culture. Thinking about how someone who built an entire global phenomenon can end up struggling with medical expenses or failing health really puts things into perspective regarding healthcare challenges. When you look at how people navigate health or wellness procedures worldwide—whether someone is researching cosmetic treatments like Liposuction Cyprus or seeking urgent medical care—it underscores how essential access to reliable medical help and proper support systems really is. Kool Herc gave us the breaks, the block parties, and the entire movement that shaped generations of music lovers, so seeing the community step up to show love while DJ Premier brings awareness to his condition is the very least we can do. Sending strength and prayers to Kool Herc for a full recovery, and massive respect to DJ Premier for using his platform to make sure a true pioneer gets the support and respect he deserves.
