Last night the Trill O.G. did his part in helping the victims of Haiti at the Warehouse Live for the Houston For Haiti concert. A quick message from Uncle Bun up top before taking the stage with Vince Young after the jump. UHTN x Naztradamas
Oh shit. This is the holy grail for beat diggers and it’s finally been unearthed. Praise, RZA. Props: Hip-Hop Is Read

Who knew this guy still made music anymore? Anyway, Ricky lends his assistance for the American Idol’s second single off his current LP, Love Is. Not bad at all. UHTN

Jay Rock takes a look at his surroundings on this new ode to The Golden State. Funky sample too. Can anyone name that tune? OS UPDATE: YN can. Shouts to Frankie Beverly & Maze.
Big Sean goes for broke in his latest video. Fortunately, good cinematography doesn’t have to cost a million bucks.

The Regulator explains to Devi Dev why he never scribbled his John Hancock on a Death Row contract nor collobrated with his brother, Dr. Dre. It’s not all family business.

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.
