Po’s home? Kinda sorta. He’s back in Belize where he spent his formative years. Shyne spent his first hours of true freedom visiting kids at the Princess Youth Royal Hostel to motivate them to walk the right path. How could anyone hate on that? Surely, video footage will emerge. And oh yeah, I told you, my dude had hair. Ha! Props: Miss Info Previously: Flick: Shyne Heads Back To Belize

The conquering hero couldn’t close the show without thanking his fans. Then after a mic mishap, the young man recovers nicely and delivers “Forever” a.k.a. JK Wedding Entrance Dance. What Chris? Talkin’ about change but no “Changed Man”? Oh well, nobody’s perfect. Maybe it woulda made him cry. Damn, you win Brown.

Jay (Not Z) and Justin. Clap for ’em! Put Me On: The Jawn

Warning: This post is for the opposite sex. Around the 1:30 mark, Maurice makes Faheem proud by goin’ topless for “Take You Down.” The fight for the T-shirt that was tossed I witnessed firsthand. Let’s just say, it got a lil testy. After the jump, dude puts his jacket back on and gives Juelz Santana a chance to shine. Too bad he drops the ball.

After polishing off his new tune, C Breezy gets to steppin’ on the first single off his second album, Exclusive. Later “Wall To Wall” is interrupted in the bridge by a BP3 Hova song. A field day for the gossipers. After the jump, another hip-hop interlude before “Yo (Excuse Me Miss)” to represent how Ri-Ri’s ex is feelin’ tonight.

Although Fab was the only MC on the bill, several rappers popped up during Mario’s set. Can someone say street credibility? Witness Jim Jones ballin’ with Webstar and after the break, Maino and Red Cafe check in. I know. Can you take the excitement?

The lone rap act at last night’s show showed why there’s not a lot of flip cam footage of him live. Like Jay-Z in his early days, Fabolous’ charisma just doesn’t come across enough and connect to the audience. Maybe I shoulda went to Boston. Anyways, up top, F-A-B-O delivered the first of several medleys of the night. Yup, he’s a hit-one-verse and quit it kinda guy. I coulda used a lil more of “Imma Do It.” On the other […]

While you were home watchin’ BET, YN was in Swamp Land boxin’ out the teeny boppers to bring you footage of Chris Brown’s return to the stage. And yup, the boy did good. Truly kick startin’ things off, he began his show with his new joint. No Weezy, but Swizz joined in on the fun. After the jump, peep Ed Lover’s intro. No he didn’t blow up the Yellow Incognegro. C’mon son! Ha!

Just Blaze was on Tony Touch’s Shade 45 radio show last night and spun some more of his secret stash of treats. Wow, I was in the stu when Electronica was workin’ on this. I should have flip cam’d it. Next time, I won’t be so respectful. Ha! Oh yeah, this shit sounds incredible. But you already know. Crazy with Mr. Magic drops too. *Adds to morning workout music* No Fergie. No shots Hov. Props: Illionaire Update: Learn the words […]

Wow this rap shit really does run 24/7 nowadays. While I was snoozing, Mike Waxx was liberating Weezy’s highly-anticipated mixtape. I’m about to download my copy and hit the gym. I gotta stay in shape to remain sleep deprived. Ha! Here’s the link. After jump comes the tracklist. You know the steez. Props: Ill Roots Update: KC with the hustleGRL art.

Uh-oh, I got a bad feeling about this one. Well, after much speculation, it was recently announced that Jay-Z will be performing in Columbus on Wednesday night and pushing back the World Series Performance to Game 2, taking place on Thursday, October 29th in NYC. Originally, Jay-Z was said to be doing both performances- Taking the field at the World Series and then flying a private jet from NYC to Columbus in time to take the stage but that plan […]

Some flicks have emerged from October’s Very Own’s party where he reached Jordan status. Drizzy’s the name and 23 is the age. And is that a bottle of Ace of Spades? See it all connects when you’re the best. Ha! Props: OTO x 1 Love T.O.

No Cristal for a Clipper. Ace of Spades, son. World Series one day away.

But tonight’s da night where we really see if the Mechanical Dummy is built to conquer the music game again. He headlines his first concert since the Ri-Ri incident and MTV caught up with dude as he got his two step together. I will be in attendance. And you know I got the flip cam on me. Fingers crossed, he pulls a Shaffer.

Webstar photos are side-splitting. Heard even C Breezy got bent at his b-day party last night. L’Chaim! Image: Ralphie The Source

For the kids that don’t know, you’re about to witness a hip-hop classic. Last week, the Bay Area crew Souls of Mischief hit up BK during a CMJ showcase at Southpaw. Call me prejudice, but I just can’t truly enjoy seeing rappers past their prime perform live. That being said, this is more the exception than the rule. Props: Always Hustle

When the checks start gettin’ small in the good ole USA, hop your ass on a plane and get some scratch overseas. Here’s the Queen Bee pleasin’ the Europeans a few days ago with a Vanity 6 impersonation and performances of her “Jump Off” and Puff’s “Last Night.” I swear to God, one moment this chick looks as cosmetic as a Jackson and the next, she looks almost as sexy as she was when she was spreading her legs on […]

Palestine’s finest flashes his upcoming single from his next album, Victory. He’s really been beastin’ on Twitter lately. To be the best, you gotta tweet the best. Ha! Bonus: If the OG’s headline makes no sense, watch this. [vodpod id=Groupvideo.3751394&w=425&h=350&fv=configParams%3Dvid%253D179079%2526uri%253Dmgid%253Auma%253Avideo%253Amtv.com%253A179079]

Wow. And Clifton Powell always cracks me up. Still, I’m worried. No shower scenes this time, please. Props: Navjosh Sidebar: Curtis Jackson is coming to town!

[vodpod id=Groupvideo.3750558&w=425&h=350&fv=] While VH1 got their viral marketing on for Hip Hop Honors this year, the backwards folks at BET couldn’t even create a video player that wouldn’t open automatically. Thankfully, Yardie took liberty and ripped this bullshit preview of tonight’s show. No these aren’t actual performances, this is merely a bad montage of bits of rehearsal footage. Huh? Good job, Stephen Hell Hill. Showtime tonight at 8pm EST. Watch the 11th Hottest Rapper In The Game rip his cypher. […]
