So in honor of Sir Juice, I’ve begun the painful process of diggin’ through my old dusty cassettes to see if I have a gem or two for you. Here’s what sounds like Biz Mark’s first radio interview ever. Yup, I do it for hip-hop. Why would you even try to compete? Ha. Sidebar: Miss Info has the funeral arrangements.

Fuck me, I never noticed Russell and Lyor’s birthdays were a day apart. That’s some spooky shit. Here’s the GG account from last night’s party. Yes, while 50 was making nice with all the NY rappers, Lyor Cohen was celebrating his 50th. Ha. Middle finger salute! Don’t forget Amber!

The Godfather is 52 today. Salute! Whatchu kids know about Def Jam history?

And now, for the main event. Accompanied by his G-Unit brethren, 50 hit the stage and performed an endless supply of hits. In fact, he was so amped, he threw his leather jacket in the crowd. Towards the middle of set, he allowed them boys from Yonkers to do their one-two things. Later came Maino. Unfortunately, Flip Cams aren’t built for six hour concerts. Sorry Jermaine.

[vodpod id=Groupvideo.3569762&w=425&h=350&fv=] He’s no Hyman Roth, but Joe says his career has helped spawn millionaires. Let’s see: Scott Storch, Cool & Dre, DJ Khaled, Big Pun….That’s one million, two million, three million, four. Props: NR

With his own camera in hand, it was Jimmy’s turn to turn it up a notch. Along with Santana Bandana, the tandem ran through some Dipset classics and even “Pop Champagne” with Ron Browz. Mazel Tov.

[vodpod id=Groupvideo.3568962&w=425&h=350&fv=] Initially when this song dropped, I panned it as “underwhelming.” Well, after the thousandth spin on my Hot nine-seven, its stuck in my head. I need a brain wash. With that said, check out a behind-the-scenes look from the video shoot. Props: 305

As I scrambled for the Flip Cam, Crooked I was already on his verse from “Sound Off”.  But don’t fret, “Woodstock (Hood Hop)” and “The One” are captured in full after the jump.

“I want the money. I want the cars. I want the clothes. I want the ho’s” Aw Bobby, I fuckin’ feel ya. According to X, this track is two years old. Luckily for us, B.o.B. makes timeless music. Enjoy. Sidebar: If you’re in the NY area, B.o.B. is  performing tonight at the Highline Ballroom. Oh, oh alright!

Next batter on deck was Papoose. He ran through some cult favorites, including “Alphabetical Slaughter.” Yeah, I was just as baffled.

Warning: This is why we don’t flip cam from the stage area. SMH.

Didn’t think I’d see this.

One of last night’s biggest ovations came for Cory Gunz. Above, he breaks the sound barrier with his rendition of “A Milli”.  Below is the rest of his performance sans a freestyle.

In a recent Q&A with The New York Times, Starks reveals that he grooves to the musical stylings of Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel. You also said you like classic artists like Bruce Springsteen. He got that voice, that [makes own voice deeper], voice voice, I like him, I like Billy Joel. Remember [singing] “Uptown Girl”? I loved that. Bob Dylan, he had a nice joint, he had lyrics. Sometimes, you gotta listen — listen. Back to Springsteen and Billy […]

Even though Murda changed his name, the Brooklyn bully stuck to the script. Here, he performs “He Asked For It”, “Brooklyn”, and Mariah Carey’s favorite tune, “Bullet, Bullet.”

Pun’s baby cousin performs this summer’s guilty pleasure, “Mira Mira” on the island’s waterfront. Quit fronting, you like it too.
