Indie label Fools Gold held their annual Day Off Concert yesterday in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Performances included Danny Brown, A$AP Ferg and Migos. Here’s a recap shot by the folks over at EME Takeover.
Jay was back in the crowd last night and caught Calvin Harris’ Made In America performance. Here’s front row footage straight off the iPhone. Eventually, Hov made it rain with those $2 bills. After the jump, Spencer Clements caught yours truly struggling to light a Cuban. Damn cameras. Ha!
Game sets some time aside from his busy schedule for family time. Game also tries to rekindle the flame with Tiff by taking her out on a date and tries to convince her to move to Houston.
Can’t make this up. Since Shikinah jokingly wishes she was white, her and Tiny spend the entire day as if they were white. It’s tea time!
Lil Reese is back with his new collection of music, Supa Savage. Hosted by DJ Scream, features include Chief Keef, Lil Durk, Waka Flocka, Wale and more. Titles and download after the jump.
Before his I Am album drops on November 19, Yo Gotti dumps off the prelude with his new mixtape. Guests include Meek Mill, DJ Drama, Jahlil Beats and more. Titles and download below.
Pretty slick moves underwater there, Hodgy. Off his Untitled 2 EP, Hodgy Beats and his fellow MellowHype ace keep their gathering full of booze, smoke and hoes. Um, thanks for the invite.
Kanye West was invited to the land of Borat on Saturday to perform at a private wedding at the Almaty’s Hotel Royal Tulip. The performance was for the grandson of Kazakhstan President Nursultan Nazarbayev. According to TMZ, Ye was reportedly paid around $3 million for the performance. Yeezus!
Round of applause for the Kang. As of last week, his LP Trouble Man: Heavy Is The Head has surpassed the 500,000 mark in sales. Congrats! Available on iTunes here.
From the pearly gates comes down Nelly’s uplifting new single featuring Daley. Off his forthcoming album M.O. dropping on September 30.

This is a great reminder of how powerful and lasting Lauryn Hill’s influence has been in music. The fact that The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill eventually reached diamond status after so many years shows that truly meaningful music can continue finding new listeners long after its original release. I also like how the article highlights the combination of hip hop, R&B, neo soul, and reggae that made the album so distinctive. Achieving more than 10 million sales is an incredible milestone, especially considering how much the music industry has changed since 1998. The album’s success feels less like a temporary trend and more like proof that strong songwriting and authentic artistic expression can remain relevant across generations. It is interesting to see how numbers can tell part of a story, whether we are looking at album sales or using a proportion calculator to understand relationships between different figures.
