On Shade 45’s Lip Service, Maino keeps it one hundred and talks about contracting gonorrhea as a lad. MC’s burning, burning hot.

Last night, Kanye returned to the city of hella haters for his FUSE sponsored concert. Above he runs through “Flashing Lights”, “Through The Wire”, “Put On” and “Hey Mama.” After the jump, singalong to “Jesus Walks”, “Heartless/Pinocchi Story” and “Touch The Sky.”

Here’s the Queen in her new AT&T commercial. Get your money, your royal highness.

Once Again: Rap-Up

Hip-hop’s next future star took the news of him being passed on Jay’s first single in stride. In fact, he told the homie Keith Murphy, he never thought he would get that look.

“I don’t know who came up with that rumor to be honest, but I always knew what Jay’s first single was going to be. Me and Jay did a lot of work together. Maybe at one point he was considering doing it and someone got over-excited and put out a press release that I was going to be on the first single.”

He also goes on to say that Jigga might’ve jacked his new joint.

“I think the ‘Run This Town’ song is phenomenal. I think Kanye kills that shit. I actually heard that song when it was a Rihanna track.”

Props: Rap-Up

Guess to be the best rapper on the world wide web you gotta stay on your computer even during interviews. I don’t know—something about this just doesn’t seem right. We’ve come a long way since this.

I heard I catch an L in this interview. Thanks SC!

Update: Oh, it wasn’t so bad.

FYI: Jay wasn’t allowing any cameras in the building, so this is a slide show rather than video footage.

Funny how time flies. Yesterday marked a decade since DMX stepped onto the stage at Woodstock in Rome, NY. At the time, X was at the top of his game with three platinum albums and an entire record label on his back. Sorry Jay. Rule, my regards. I don’t know about you, but there isn’t anything more gobsmacking than watching 200,000 plus Caucasians recite, “My Niggas.” Ah, good times. Just because, after the jump, watch the crowd go apeshit during Kid Rock’s performance of “Bawitdaba.” Party on dudes.

They premiered this  on Tuesday at Fabolous’ movie screening. For those wondering, it’s shot from a “first person” prespective. As for the film itself…
