B.Dot would never post this. Ha! This is actually a pretty good exchange between Busta and your favorite “journalist.” In the first clip, Vlad gets Bus to talk about L.O.N.S. beef with more details than I ever heard before. And after the jump, Trevor tells how Diddy got him to switch his style up and why he packs a machete. That’s right, a machete!

In one of his earliest interviews to promote his debut album, Redman takes the tissue out of his nose and talks about the drama of sample clearances around the two min mark. He says Quincy Jones charged him 60 K. Ouch.

Who’s dude gettin’ his Lady Gaga on? Anyways, I like how Mr. Folarin interacts with the crowd at the end. And oh yeah, the video debuts Monday on MTV unless someone can get their hands on it earlier.

In case you ain’t know, Young Jeezy and the CTE did it big in the MIA last weekend. And of course, somebody had to shoot it. My favorite part: Jizzle and the crew walkin’ home from the club. And oh yeah, Mr. Jenkins has a new motto this year: “It’s just us and the guns.” “Fuck swag, nigga. I got savoir-faire.” Bet Curtis approves that message.
And oh yeah, the soundtrack here is track #17 off the new mixtape.
Heads Up: Nigel x HipHopStan

Robbie just hipped me to this interview the King from Queens did with some kooky UK morning show around 12 years ago. If you recall around that time, a Jason Nevins remix of “It’s Like That” brought the group back on the international radar. Witness a docile DMC, an aggy Run and an always calm-under-pressure-no-need-to-act-ill, Jam Master Jay in what would be the beginning of the group’s end.

Here’s another street vid from Rawse from a song that most definitely shoulda made Deeper Than Rap. Exit Foxy Brown collab. And insert this one.
The voice of Reflection Eternal takes you back in the latest from VIBE‘s 60/60 series:
“Me and Hi-Tek had a little EP called Ground Ish [and] I was trying to get them to put out the first song from that and by mistake I played the song Fortified Live from my cassette tape. I wasn’t even trying to play that record in the meeting and they heard it and they were like, ‘What’s that?’ And I said, “Oh, this some shit we working on” and it wasn’t mixed or nothing. They was like, “’We can put that out right now and we can give you a video.’ And that was my first record with them.”
That joint was hot.

Here’s the reunited crew performing their biggest hit at a recent show at The Filmore. I’m old enough to recall when this tune tickled the ladies fancies like the “Best I Ever Had”. Do you remember the time?

This sounds like such a lovely way to begin a road trip! Staying in Ventura seems like a great choice, especially with the opportunity to reconnect with people Shane knew during his mission. Catching up over dinner must have made the first day even more memorable. I also love the simple detail about picking up fresh oranges, as those little local experiences often become part of the best travel memories. Planning transportation in advance, such as arranging a Materuni waterfall for another adventure, can similarly make a trip much more relaxed and enjoyable.
