Last Friday, I caught up with engineer extraordinaire Gimel “Young Guru” Keaton at Roc The Mic studios. For nearly a decade, Guru’s added the finishing touches on all of The Roc’s releases. With Blueprint 3 in stores today, he spoke on the album’s delay and fine tuning it in the 50th state. More clips on the way.

Great cinematography Hype, but like I’ve said before, this crap sounds like a bad Ron G blend. Sorry Sean, but this is Unforgivable.
The Pyrex King stirs things up with La Flare, Bad Azz, and the Diamond Princess. Hate if you want, but this is first rate.
