I honestly have never really listened to dude’s stuff but this performance at the Respect The West party won me over. Guess I’m a sucker for an MJ sample. On the flip, Mr. Carter gives DJ Quik a helluva introduction. Respect your elders, kids.

Third time’s a charm. Here’s some new material off Erykah’s forthcoming album, New Amerykah Part Two (Return of the Ankh). Sounds like another winner. UGC

Personally, I’ve been petitioning for that since the beginning of time.

During Hot 97’s New at 2, they let loose a new verse from Banks’ “Beamer, Benz, or Bentley.” After this, it’s probably the remix.

Nearly 20 years ago, Guru and Preemo appeared on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Peep, Preem’s shirt. Remember those? Ha! Anyways, the duo go on to perform “Take It Personal” off Daily Operation. HypeTrak

Upset over Diddy’s comment, “If you’re not drinking Ciroc, you’re drinking pee pee”, Silver sent a toilet filled with bottles of Ciroc vodka to Puff’s Midtown office.

Wow, that was fast. Five months after honoring Def Jam’s 25th anniversary, it appears the South is next to get its just due. The show’s executive producer, Fab 5 Freddy is currently in the 305 rounding up some of the city’s heavy hitters. This should be hot.

Ice Cube refuted Jay Rock’s claim on his blog yesterday and gave his support for the new artists emerging from the West. As for everyone else, you’re going to have to wait until July 13th for him to name names.

It’s clear that Gibbs and Pill are brothers in struggle, but Jay Rock and Kendrick Lamar are tight like Crockett and Tubbs too. During Rock’s Respect The West set, KL got to rock his raunchy tune to the rowdy crowd. Sounded hella good to me.
