School’s out, but class is in session in Kardinall Offishall’s new video. In the description, he gives a breakdown of the visual’s concept. Enjoy. Remember. Reflect. Relate. Re-live. Realize. Re-invent. Kardinal and Nottz (on the beat) link up with Shi Wisdom to bring you “Mr.Parker”. A song about growing up and living with the challenges of an education system that is built for “us” to fail (or at least having it be very difficult to succeed). With little encouragement, many […]
360 appeared last Tuesday on Tony Toca’s show on Shade 45. Before the close of his interview, he recited a pair of rhymes over Nas’ “Memory Lane” and “Can’t Forget About You”. Based off his previous material, 60 should’ve gone harder.

It is so heartbreaking to hear DJ Premier break the news that DJ Kool Herc’s health is ailing, as he is literally the founding father who laid down the blueprint for hip-hop culture. Thinking about how someone who built an entire global phenomenon can end up struggling with medical expenses or failing health really puts things into perspective regarding healthcare challenges. When you look at how people navigate health or wellness procedures worldwide—whether someone is researching cosmetic treatments like Liposuction Cyprus or seeking urgent medical care—it underscores how essential access to reliable medical help and proper support systems really is. Kool Herc gave us the breaks, the block parties, and the entire movement that shaped generations of music lovers, so seeing the community step up to show love while DJ Premier brings awareness to his condition is the very least we can do. Sending strength and prayers to Kool Herc for a full recovery, and massive respect to DJ Premier for using his platform to make sure a true pioneer gets the support and respect he deserves.
