Here’s another scene from Michael Rapaport’s A Tribe Called Quest documentary Beats, Rhymes & Life. In this clip, Short Dog, gives his take on the group’s classic, “Bonita Applebaum”. Gotta put me on. Woooha Previously: Ludacris Scene From ATCQ Documentary
Sir Lucious Leftfoot adds a verse to the #5 record in the county. Let’s help make this #1 with a bullet—dawg.
This past Friday, with Statik Selektah on the wheels of steel, Nas performed in the 50th state. He runs through “Hip Hop Is Dead”, “N.Y State of Mind” and “It Ain’t Hard To Tell”. Only thing better than that is getting lei’d!
50 Cent isn’t the only rapper cashing Vitamin Water checks. Coca-Cola’s cash cow used Kid Cudi’s “Pursuit Of Happiness (Steve Aoki mix)” in their “Strong Man” ad campaign. That’s tough. Woooha
You probably heard this as one of the snippets from Bun B’s No Mixtape, but now Yo Gotti lends a verse. Word is this is the first single off Bun’s Trill OG album and will also feature OJ Da Juiceman. Uh, okay? Keep It Trill UPDATE: Uncle Bun says this is NOT the first single. Plus he’s waiting on a Jeezy verse. OJ did reference vocal but he’s not on final version.
Drizzy and Dream slow it down here with their collaboration from Thank Me Later. Pardon the annoying ass sample clearance only drops, but this will have to do for now. Hopefully a tagless version surfaces soon. YK2 UPDATE: Someone named Travie did the honors. 2DB UPDATE #2: With more bars added, this is what you’ll hear June 15th splash

This is a great post highlighting Quentin Miller’s unique journey and creative independence. It is always inspiring to see artists who continue to follow their own path and express their true vision despite challenges.

A journey filled with discovery and unforgettable moments can also be found through a Serengeti Safari, where nature and adventure create stories that last forever.
