Say it ain’t so! As the first hip-hop publication, Hip-Hop Connection has fallen on hard times. And after 232 issues, the U.K. based mag is finally folding. In their final issue, they surveyed 100 MCs to crown the Greatest Rapper Of All Time. But com’on, let’s be honest. 2Pac >(insert MC here)

Bernard “Bun B” Freeman keeps on moving. He leans back into his black leather recliner to change out of his Nikes and into socks and sandals, but he doesn’t sit for long. He gets up and grabs his iPhone or he stares out the window of Jive’s Midtown office in Manhattan, New York. He’s in New York promoting the final UGK album, 4 Life, which drops March 31st. Taking a moment out of his busy sked, he sits with RapRadar and reflects on Pimp C, the history of UGK, and being apart of the most underrated rap groups of the ‘90s.
That Rick Ross sure is a nice guy. Last night, Officer Ricky gave us media folks these shirts as a parting gift from his listening session. Promo T’s are the best. Not only are they free, but they’re also great for wifey to rock around the house. See, even Stewie approves. Click the jump to see the back.

Somehow, the homie Scott over at WoooHa got his hands on the legal documents concerning Afeni Shakur’s suit against Morgan Creek Entertainment.
“The document goes on to mention how Morgan Creek entered the
discussions in 2008 as both sides negotiated deal points in a draft but
still no verbal or written agreement or approval to move forward. But
finally, only after Notorious opened well did Morgan Creek
say they agreed to the terms and that it was binding. Amura
Entartinament argues they never had any such agreement.”
Com’on now, don’t go making your G’s in a sleezy way!
Finally got my hands on this. Responding to criticism from “Internet Connection,” Talib Kweli and Hi-Tek broke a new song on Green Lantern’s Sirius radio show last Monday.

Fun Fact: YN was the first guest on Juan Epstein. Now there’s no Juan Epstein without guests. Multiple shots! Anyway peep Cipha Rosenberg’s latest rap nerd fest. This reminds me that Kweli and Hi-Tek also performed “The Blast” live on Green Lantern’s Sirius show last Monday that I co-hosted. They also broke a new song. I think I finally ripped it right from that night last night. Ha! Stay tuned.
