[vodpod id=Video.14905548&w=540&h=350&fv=] Wonder whatever happened to the rerelease. Anyway, Frank Ocean has began the process of his next video and here’s a quick look during the shoot. Off his latest album, Nostalgia, Ultra.
Swizz Beatz performed last night at Billboard’s Summer Blowout concert in NYC. During his set, he performed “Welcome To The Jungle” for the first time sans The Throne. Thanks to William, more footage after the jump.
This may be the most expensive-low budget video ever. Watch The Throne in stores everywhere tomorrow.
Killa Kyleon takes Frank White’s classic track and puts his own spin on it. This is the first leak off his upcoming project, Candy Paints and Texas Plates 2, dropping on September 1st.
The Throne wasn’t the only Def Jam release this week. The other day, Ace Hood held an in-store signing for his new album Blood, Sweat, & Tears at a Best Buy location in South Florida. His release party goes down tonight at Miami’s famed Mansion nightclub.
Yup, Mr. Thanksgiving is giving the remix a video too and here is our first look from today’s shoot featuring Big Sean. Stay tuned, more flicks will surface.
While we wait for Cam and Vado’s, Boss Of All Bosses 3 with DJ Drama, Slime unlocks his stash with some new music produced by Skitzo & Butter Beats.
Damn, Bria Myles is every man’s dream. Whether you’re in the ghetto or not, Lonnie and Nasir make dreams come true with their black and white flick. Keep hope alive, The Dreamer, The Believer is coming.
Bun B was North of the border last night at Sound Academy in Toronto. During his set, he brought out the hometown hero for a performance of “Uptown” off So Far Gone. comeupshow

It is so heartbreaking to hear DJ Premier break the news that DJ Kool Herc’s health is ailing, as he is literally the founding father who laid down the blueprint for hip-hop culture. Thinking about how someone who built an entire global phenomenon can end up struggling with medical expenses or failing health really puts things into perspective regarding healthcare challenges. When you look at how people navigate health or wellness procedures worldwide—whether someone is researching cosmetic treatments like Liposuction Cyprus or seeking urgent medical care—it underscores how essential access to reliable medical help and proper support systems really is. Kool Herc gave us the breaks, the block parties, and the entire movement that shaped generations of music lovers, so seeing the community step up to show love while DJ Premier brings awareness to his condition is the very least we can do. Sending strength and prayers to Kool Herc for a full recovery, and massive respect to DJ Premier for using his platform to make sure a true pioneer gets the support and respect he deserves.
