Kanye West’s Rant Vol. 2 (Live At Casio G-Shock Event)

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6dj8NGDwcM] 

Ok this time: DJ Enuff > Blogs. You can’t beat W W W Dot! Flying fucks. BET Awards. Movin’ slower at 32. Marathons > Sprints. 10 year plans. Obama. Yes we can. Create.

Equally bizarre, but not as humorous. You know the sequel never beats the original. Still need part where he talks about being fat is like being famous.

Kanye West’s Only Great Hangover Appearance

[vimeo http://vimeo.com/5926332] 

The Great Hangover Tour concluded last night in Philly so it stands that the man who named the tour, only popped up for one show. That was four days ago in Norfolk, VA. The following footage ain’t great, but it’s worth noting. Above is the concert’s encore of “Welcome To Heartbreak” and, after the jump, the crowd goes ape shit when ‘Ye first comes out during “Make Her Say.”

New Music: Beanie Sigel Ft. Freeway x Young Chris “Ready For War”

Looks like Beans has his mind right, money right, and is “Ready For War”. And for good measure, he brought Freeway and Young Chris out to the front line as well. Word is Sigel renamed The Focus to The Broad Street Bully. Either way, I’m sure Beans’ bars will remain the same. (That’s a good thing y’all).

On the set of his Complex fashion spread, MC Spell Check laments his addiction to that damn Blackberry. Even though the wife just copped me an iPhone, I’m right there with him.

Also: The homie BFred said that lil’ flick of Amber Rose that leaked last night is nothin’. They plan to flood the Internets next week with a gang of mo’ photos and behind the scenes video. Blonde Dyke. Klondike. Let’s go!
