Miss Info was right, last night was utopian. In this final clip, Rae caps off the night off with “Heaven & Hell” but is abrupted with technical difficulties. But like a true showman, he returns with an encore performance of “Have Mercy” off OB4CL 2. Do yourself a favor and cop it September 8th.

Jigga man, tells the 1515 Boys that he’s taking his time when it comes to making his mark in Tinsletown. Sounds good to me. Just as long as you don’t forget where you come from.

Cover songs are tricky. Sometimes, they’re better than the original. Sometimes, they’re even worst. Luckily, Mimi does Foreigner’s classic justice. See if you can spot the sample used by a certain Roc Boy.

As part of MTV’s The J To Z series, they dug up footage of a young Shawn Carter rhymin’ alongside Positive K while Big Daddy Kane took a break back in 1991. Spread love, it’s the Brooklyn way.

And he’s not feelin’ Curtis not being allowed to perform in their old hood. “50 Cent is a success story we all should applaud. However you feel about him, you can’t deny him. He had something going on in his old neighborhood — our old neighborhood, because I grew up there too. He wanted to perform there. He can have the benefit but he can’t […]

He said, it’s called “Google Eyes” and he would send me a copy if I would only put up a snippet of it or label it a ruff version since it’s not all the way done. I complied.
