[vodpod id=Video.4283973&w=425&h=350&fv=] Mr. Beatz has been braggin’ heavy on his Twiter about his recent work with the Queen and, last night, he got her on his bubble tweet to brag some more. He also says to look out for the “Fancy” remix. Guess MJB got her record back. Ha. omen
There were a lot of superstars on the Rock The Bells stage last night, but it was Snoop Dogg’s house as he headlined the rap festival with selections from his classic Doggystyle debut. Behind the scenes flicks from the man himself below.
Believe it or not, L-Boogie really did touch the stage in San Bernardino yesterday. Above is the beginning of her set as she launched into “Lost Ones”. Flicks of Ms. Hill in action after the jump. rap-up
The boys from Shaolin brought the ruckus to Rock The Bells and performed 36 Chambers in its entirety. Above they perform “Wu-Tang Clan Ain’t Nuthin’ To Fuck Wit” and “C.R.E.A.M.” Wish you were there? Yeah, us too. Previously: ATCQ UPDATE: “Bring Da Ruckus”. “7th Chamber” below.
T.G.I.F. just got a whole new meaning. Every week until Christmas, Kanye West plans to release a new song He’s calling it: G.O.O.D. Fridays. Ha! How clever. Great way to start the weekend!
Can they kick it? Yes they can. Yesterday the 2010 Rock The Bells tour kicked off at the NOS Events Center in San Bernardino, CA and above Tribe performs “Bonita Applebum” & “Electric Relaxation”. Check it out, they got us mesmerized. UPDATE: Busta stopped the party with a lil “Scenario”
Start your engines. Yesterday, Chrisette Michele took to the Central Park Summerstage in NYC and brought out Rozay to perform their Teflon Don track, “Aston Martin Music”. No Drake. No problem.
Here’s another low budget flick from the young gunnas and this time, it’s for their Drake cover off their Back To Business mixtape. Hey hey hey, this sucks too.
This is a pretty short kiss. Following Drake’s message this morning, here’s another possible track that might appear on his R&B mixtape. Hopefully, someone will kiss and tell the origins later. thi UPDATE: Two weeks later. Full with no tags. This was a reference track for Roc Nation’s Rita Ora. Not makin’ It’s Never Enough. x

He explained his origins and talked about his forthcoming debut. Tomorrow, Cole will hit the stage with Diddy & co. at Governor’s Island. Maybe then he’ll announce the title of his album. Ha! Bonus: Looks like Cole took a crack at No I.D.’s track before Rozay.

This is a great reminder of how powerful and lasting Lauryn Hill’s influence has been in music. The fact that The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill eventually reached diamond status after so many years shows that truly meaningful music can continue finding new listeners long after its original release. I also like how the article highlights the combination of hip hop, R&B, neo soul, and reggae that made the album so distinctive. Achieving more than 10 million sales is an incredible milestone, especially considering how much the music industry has changed since 1998. The album’s success feels less like a temporary trend and more like proof that strong songwriting and authentic artistic expression can remain relevant across generations. It is interesting to see how numbers can tell part of a story, whether we are looking at album sales or using a proportion calculator to understand relationships between different figures.
