One of the most coveted unreleased hip-hop albums has finally seen the light of day: Large Professor’s The LP. Take a listen to a version of “Mad Scientist” that I’ve never heard before. And if you’re still lost, peep the Book of Rap Lists explanation below. I’m so far ahead of myself, I should start another life. Ha!

According to Forbes, Jigga Man’s got plenty money.
The Brooklyn-born rapper pulled in an estimated $35 million over the past 12 months, topping our annual list of Hip-Hop Cash Kings. It’s far from the $82 million he made last year, but more than enough to reclaim the crown from 2008’s monarch, 50 Cent. The Queens native drops to fourth place with $20 million, down from $150 million a year ago.
Heads Up: Woooha
The folks at Rocawear just sent over a collection of Mattel Barbie dolls inspired by Rocawear’s upcoming 10th-year anniversary. Although we don’t have complete details about the partnership between Mattel and Rocawear, we do have some cool photos of both male and female Barbie’s. As you can see, the dolls are freshly dipped in Rocawear apparel.

I love how this post feels both personal and practical at the same time. Slower summers on blogs are so relatable, especially when family time takes priority. Your California coast trip sounds like the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. Highway 101 is such a beautiful drive, and it is helpful that you are sharing specific beaches and stops. This kind of real travel experience is much more valuable than generic guides, especially for families planning their own coastal road trips. Vacation
