Reunion show November 26th at Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC. UPDATE: Now with video.
No, this isn’t your weekly G.O.O.D. Friday fix. Instead, it’s an unreleased demo from Kanye which RHHS79 says was intended for Common and Ludacris with Yeezy on the hook.
In honor of G.O.O.D. Friday. Check the 6:10 mark. Look at you! Ha! Bonus: I forgot the “Power” claps. Clap! dj soul
[vodpod id=Video.4508692&w=425&h=350&fv=] With happy hour just a few hours away, everybody in the latest video off Battle Of The Sexes have already reached their limits. Who’s up for a drink? All rounds on B.Dot. wshh
Face down. Ass up. That’s the way we like to—well, you know. Here’s a new tune to grind too from the mouth piece of Jay Rock. By the way, Cubana Lust culo es muy bueno!
About time someone else goes in over this besides Curtis. Luckily for us, Joell Ortiz dropped off his rendition. Fuck you, if you’re not fuckin’ with this.
The G.O.A.T. chopped it up with his old chum, Tim Westwood. In between his old video clips, LL speaks on his current projects and his glory days as Def Jam’s flagship artist.
The Roots, John Legend, Common and Melanie Fiona practiced what they preached and “woke up” earlier this morning for a performance of “Wake Up Everybody” as part of Good Morning America’s Fall Concert series. Support the project Wake Up! in its entirety on iTunes umd
[vodpod id=Video.4507403&w=425&h=350&fv=] The freaks come out at night and so do the killers. Freekey and his Dip affiliates act the fool for their new video. Toward the end of the clip, the beat switches to Cam’ron and Jim Jones’ “Toast“. os
Nelly’s floating on Cloud 9—well, at least his car is in his new video for “Just A Dream”. As HHNM indicated, the song is performing well on the charts and after five weeks sits at number eight. Don’t call it a comeback!
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.
