This morning, ?uestlove appeared for the first time on Preston and Steve’s radio show on 93.3 WMMR. The frequency is Philadelphia’s first Rock radio station. After an interview, ?uest struts his stuff on the sticks. Do remember: The Roots Picnic goes down this Saturday.
It’s about to go down. The world’s most controversial awards show is taping tonight at NYC’s Hammerstein Ballroom and as you can plainly see the Sunshine State is well represented. Finals game 1 vs. Dirty South All-Star extravaganza? Game time decision. Ha! khaled
One of the best parts about The Roots being on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon is that they perform with their musical guests…including the hip-hop acts. And during Ice Cube’s stop last week, he warmed up the crowd with “Straight Outta Compton”. Black Thought handled MC Ren’s verse while Captain Kirk handled Eazy’s. Still the world’s most dangerous. mum
Sounds pretty monstrous already. There’s no word as to where this will end up, but it’s another one off the Trending Topics 4 mixtape. Splash got two mo’. Yesterday: New Music: Jay-Z x Swizz Beatz “Ultra”
This was originally intended for the Wu-Massacre, but now it’s the first single off DJ Mathematics’ Made Men. Let your feet stomp ’cause the clan’s in the front. mr. x via math files
Rap Radar sure looks good on the iPad huh fellas? Ha! Last night, Uncle Rush was presented the Gold Medal of Honor for Lifetime Achievement in Music at The National Arts Club in New York City. Others in attendance include Lyor Cohen, Andre Harrell, and model Selita Ebanks. Congrats!

Man, this drop from Masspike Miles is seriously smooth from start to finish. The Road Less Traveled totally delivers on that signature R&B vibe, and the production choices across these tracks are just insane. It honestly feels more complete than a lot of full-length albums out right now. Tracks like "Devoted" with Bun B and the title track hit different when you are just cruising around the city late at night. If you are heading out to grab the physical copy or hitting up a late-night listening session across town, trying to flag down reliable taxi services can sometimes be a real hassle, so planning ahead definitely saves the mood. Overall, this project proves why he is such a vital part of the Maybach crew. Definitely keep this one on repeat for a while.
