In honor of their performance last night, here’s some vintage footage of the Thorntons, Pharrell, and Kelis circa 2002. Peep the jersey dress and trucker hat? Ha! After the jump, track 6 off, Lord Willin’

Whoa, break out the DeLorean! MTV unearthed decade old clips of Marshall’s first encounters with the network. In the sit down above, he talks about who influenced his sound. After, the jump he speaks more on his transition from the underground, visits TRL, and shares the same stage with Marky Mark Mark Wahlberg. White power!
Jay and B? No Jay and Ci-Ci have agreed to hit the road for a brief 10 city tour. The full itinerary isn’t official yet, but Rap-Up has the scoop on possible stops in Vegas, Connecticut and Atlanta. I suggest you grab them tickets up. Jigga got catalogue and Ciara is nice to look at. Y’all know you like the way she moves. Just get the earplugs ready for when she sings songs from her new CD coaster. Ha!
Update: Apparently, Ciara has been hypin’ this up a lil’ too much. The official announcement came in and it’s only five dates not 10. Ole girl who got beat by Chrisette Michele on SoundScan is strictly opening act status. No Mega Powers. Ha!
Still check ’em out tho. Here are the dates:
July 3 Las Vegas, NV The Pearl at the Palms Casino Resort
July 4 Las Vegas, NV The Pearl at the Palms Casino Resort
July 7 Chicago, IL Charter One Pavilion at Northerly Island
July 10 Uncasville, CT Mohegan Sun Arena
July 12 Atlanta, GA Chastain Park Amphitheatre
Looks like the actual CDs have been printed but don’t look at the Double R—we ain’t got shit. What’d you think we got connections? Ha!
Yesterday in the NYC, Kiss shot the visual for “Who’s Real.” No signs of OJ Tha Juice. Thank heavens.
Ohio’s finest and Cipha Sounds’ young MC combine on this mixtape inspired by Ghostface Killah’s usage of the Bob James breakbeat classic “Nautilus”. That’s right all the tracks here utilize the same main sample source. Pretty clever.
Check it out at Press Play.

You Internet sharing my files? Nope. Ha! Here, Mal and Push-A-Ton perform a few more tunes off their sophomore album, Hell Hath No Fury. More after the jump.
What the? Ron Browz and Tony Starks?! Play at your own risk, folks.

Pay Attention 2: Karen Civil
Tyler, The Creator’s Call Me If You Get Lost: The Estate Sale feels like a fresh extension of his original masterpiece. The added tracks bring more emotion and polish. Listening to it while driving through Faisal Town Phase 2 somehow makes the whole vibe even better—luxury mixed with raw honesty.
