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!

At the 3:52 mark, Scott tells D.C.’s 93.9 FM, that his name should be mentioned in the top brackets. I beg to differ, but you can’t knock his confidence. If you don’t feel that you’re the best, make room for the rest.

Plies Pays Tribute To “The First 48”

Yup, Algernod’s got another album coming whether you like it or not. Here he explains how a popular TV show influenced one of his new songs.

“I got a song right now called ‘First 48,‘ ” the Florida native revealed. “It’s wrapped around the whole TV series ‘The First 48 Hours.’ I’m telling you on the record: ‘Everybody is a goon until they catch a case/ When the detectives get to the talking/ All that gangsta shit fades away/ The first 10 minutes, dog, you started off straight/ Detective applied a little pressure, you turn around and break.’

“That whole situation for me, that intro, I’m sitting here watching TV, and I didn’t know it was that many unreal dudes still left in the streets,” he continued. “I just focused on that situation. That’s one of them records on my album I call ‘choir rehearsal.’ I know everybody is gonna sing it every time I perform it.” 

Should be interesting. Plus, Goon Affiliated is the first album where Plies is gonna let other rappers get their special guest on. We’re on the hunt for them names first.
