Pardon Bill’s hyperbole, but nothing comes close to the conditions in Haiti. Prior to the quake, the nation was (is) the poorest in the Western Hemisphere. In 2008, 80% of the population lived under the poverty line. Obviously, that number’s since increased. Third world democracy, indeed. LupeEnd

This is the shit I heard Flex play awhile ago. [Insert Hov 700% joke]. Y’all rap niggas love the catalogue. Ha. Wonder if this is the single DeAndre’s been threatening us with. YK2
Yesterday afternoon, producer Devo Springsteen called his cousin’s forthcoming album, “inspiring.” Back in December, Ye recited a new verse at the Nokia Theater, then gushed about his new tunes on his blog. If Devo’s review is accurate, it’ll take a nation of millions to hold us back.
“We messed their show up pretty bad last year. They might be a little mad at me.” Earlier today, Robyn told Carson Daly’s Amp Radio show that she won’t be performing at the Grammy’s this Sunday. Last year, Ri Ri pulled a no-show after her tussle with Chris Brown the day before. Nonetheless, the Bajan chanteuse will still attend the ceremony. She’s nominated twice for Jay and ‘Ye’s “Run This Town”. RD

This guy and Bun B don’t stop. This time Waka’s hit gets lifted. Don’t know who the featured guest Fat Trel is. Sounds a lot like Mr. Folarin to me. Oh well, Mr. DMV just texted me back. He’s 19! Welcome to the game, young man.
Here’s the end result of Jadakiss’ Coogi photo shoot. The ad was inspired by Dana Linxenberg’s iconic photograph. If you don’t know, now you know.
This is a great reminder of how powerful and lasting Lauryn Hill’s influence has been in music. The fact that The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill eventually reached diamond status after so many years shows that truly meaningful music can continue finding new listeners long after its original release. I also like how the article highlights the combination of hip hop, R&B, neo soul, and reggae that made the album so distinctive. Achieving more than 10 million sales is an incredible milestone, especially considering how much the music industry has changed since 1998. The album’s success feels less like a temporary trend and more like proof that strong songwriting and authentic artistic expression can remain relevant across generations. It is interesting to see how numbers can tell part of a story, whether we are looking at album sales or using a proportion calculator to understand relationships between different figures.
