YN returns to HuffPost Live and keeps Kanye as the topic of discussion. On this go round, he talks the week prior to Yeezus‘ release, Kevin Durant’s possibility of signing to Roc Nation Sports and more.
It’s been three years in the making, but this past weekend Math Hoffa and T-Rex squared off once again in NYC. If you couldn’t make the main event, here’s how the MC’s duked it out.
Who is the real Angel Haze? Well from a Wiz look-a-like to a midget, the real Angel Haze holds auditions in the video for her new single. Her debut album Dirty Gold is coming soon.
What’s hotter than a fly whip? How about a tight short-clad Brianna Perry cruising in one for her Symphony No. 9‘s new video? Ha, we thought so.
Lil Wayne is back at jacking beats and wakes up today with his rendition of Ace Hood’s “Bugatti”. Off DJ Stevie J’s The Appreciation 6 mixtape, which can be downloaded here.
Emilio Rojas’ No Shame…No Regrets drops tomorrow, but on the eve of it’s release, he disturbs the peace in his new black-and-white visual. Make some noise.
Well not really, but thanks to Jimmy Fallon and a mash up of clips of the NBC anchor, here’s the late show’s parody of Brian Williams rapping to Warren G and Nate Dogg’s classic. N.W.A. and Snoop after the jump. Regulators, mount up.
Mac Miller checked in with Semtex over the weekend and spoke on his Jay Electronica collabo, working with Tyler, The Creator and more. He also dropped a freestyle over Nas’ “Made You Look” and Lupe’s “Kick Push”. Watching Movies With The Sound Off is in stores June 18. Pre-order yours today. UPDATE: Video of the freestyle session below.
Bandz will certainly make her dance and during Juicy J’s show at Hollywood’s House of Blues, Miley Cyrus shook what her momma gave her—or lack there of.
Following Kendrick Lamar and Nas the previous day, Kanye closed out Governors Ball last night on Randall’s Island in NY and treated fans to a few tracks presumably off Yeezus. Above, NM catches Ye ‘s run through “I Am God”. He also performed “On Site” as well as “Black Skinhead”, “New Slaves” and goes off on a light rant. Believe it or not, Yeezus drops June 18.
Great breakdown of Statik Selektah’s *Round Trip*! Honestly, this 2023 Mass Appeal release is pure boom-bap bliss from start to finish. Statik really outdid himself with those smooth, jazzy sample flips and turntable scratches, creating the exact kind of laid-back, golden-era hip-hop vibe you want playing in the background while relaxing at Denmark holiday cottages over a quiet weekend. The guest list alone is stacked—having legends like Posdnous kicking things off on the opener "Round Trip (For Dave)" alongside heavy hitters like Method Man, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, and Inspectah Deck on "Unpredictable" makes every track feel like a proper event. Even the newer-school features like Benny the Butcher, Conway the Machine, and Joey Bada$$ fit effortlessly over the dusty, soulful production without a single wasted verse. Definitely one of his most cohesive projects in years and an easy front-to-back spin for anyone who appreciates real hip-hop craftsmanship.
