If you don’t know who Bill Withers is then go do your research. OK I’ll help you a lil’ bit. Dude is one of my favorite musicians of all-time so needless to say I’m amped about this upcoming documentary on him. Apparently, it debuted out in Austin during SXSW but I missed it. Where the fuck I was at? I lost!

Apparently, Dukie is being charged with swagger jacking in the first degree. Allegedly, he ripped the track “Shinin'” from producer Black Spade and is claiming it as his own. Hit the jump to read an email Spade sent Fresh Selects regarding the fuckery.
Don’t think there’s ever been so much female rap royalty in one place. Missy, Lil Kim, Yo-Yo, Rage, MC Lyte all pay respect to her royal highness at her born day bash last night. Look at Ms. Whitaker gettin’ her hostess on—that’s my Miss Rap Supreme. Ha!
Thanks to producers Cool and Dre’s twitter for the tip. Ha!
On the hunt for good performance footage and will add when I find it.

Friday night, Keri Hilson was on Jimmy Kimmel and she brought her lil ass-slappin’ buddy, Lil Wayne a.k.a. the #1 rapper in the game. Hey, I’m just statin’ facts I didn’t put him there. Anyway, watch the king of Late Night bust out Birdman Jr. for his raunchy lyrics. Who knows what Wayne ever says, right?
As you can see, this is the debut of the RR TV Tuner cards. That’s right, Rip Game Proper (Telemundo Style). Step to the rear, Mr. World Premiere. Ha! I’m just jokin’. Jokes! No shots as you kids say.

Contrary to popular belief, William H.’s ugly ass sweaters weren’t Coogis. Sorry B.I.G. They were in fact handmade creations by Dutch designer, Koos van den Akker. VBS.tv went “Behind The Seams” and spoke to the man himself in a three part series.
Here a pics from Method Man and Redman’s new video, “Ayo” featuring Saukrates. For those not keeping score, these are the second batch of flicks taken from a video shoot for Blackout 2. See what happens when you play nicely—you become a priority! Check out more photos after the jump.

No rappers were harmed in the shooting of this photo.
Fall Out Boy got down with a trio of rappers—Joe Budden, Murs, 88-Keys—for a remix to their song “America’s Suitehearts”. Even tho this is hip-hop related, I wouldn’t even post this song if it wasn’t sent to me by the Brothers Rosenthal. Looks like these two young Jews have entered the bootleg business. Congrats, guys. Moonshine!

That Mac Miller and Sean Price collab is an absolute heater! "Pet Sounds" showcases that raw, lyrical talent we all miss. It’s a somber reminder of what the game lost. On a different note, while the song title is a play on words, it’s a good reminder for owners to stay vigilant about health. If you have an older companion at home, remember that CKD in pets is serious. Keep an eye on their hydration and energy—early detection is everything. Great track, rest in power to the legends.
