This week, I come clean on one of Jay-Z’s beloved tracks. Sorry YN, but fronting will get me nowhere.

Last Week: Hip-Hop Confessions: J Dilla Who?

GIANT took a look at four of hip-hop’s most enduring bromances. Can someone bury this term next to “Swagger”, por favor?

Bromance:|brōˈmans; brōˌmans| (noun): 1. A “man crush.” A close but non-sexual relationship between two men, a form of homosocial intimacy. 2. A really crappy MTV reality series.

Look at this DJ Vlad guy gettin’ his journalism on. Apparently my homie got the scoop on the latest casualty of Andre Young Records. I always thought that Mr. Lamont was a lil too feisty to stay in the Doc’s good graces. Although still unconfirmed, it looks like this rumor got legs. E1 Music, here we come!

Update: A buzzed Bishop throws Vlad under the bus. Says he’s still signed. Only need to watch first 3 mins.

Props: Shawn David and Pcire in our comments. Peace!

OK: LowKey broke it. Dre found the photos. OnSmash had a making of the video. Now, Worldstarhiphop has the world premiere. Here’s Crack’s next single featuring Who? Don’t know about this one Joey. Guess I need to travel down South a lil’ more. Smh.

Sidebar: I gotta find my Twitter notes from Joe’s listening and remember what my single picks were. 

Philly, Philly what that rap be like? Here’s the iTUnes bonus cut off Asleep In The Bread Aisle with Rock City and the Broad Street Bully. Sounds like Sigel hasn’t missed a beat—or a meal for that matter.
