“When New York niggas were callin’ Southern rappers lame but then jackin’ our slang” During his first time at Cipha Sounds and Peter Rosenberg’s Hot 97 morning show yesterday, Jay Elect explains that the above line ain’t a diss, but rooted in personal experience. Hey, if the truth hurts, you’ll be in pain. DGG
“Put a peace sign up for Weezy on the Island” DJ Envy’s man goes in on the big Southern hit. That instrumental is still so much better that what Roscoe and SB did to it. Hey shouldn’t this guy be signed with Combs by now? Splash
Once again, it’s on. Last night, Ms. Adu visited another talk show. No interview. Title track performance. Oh well, she’s still number one. 502, 000 people can’t be wrong. When’s the tour? UHTN
We showed you some clips a few days ago, but here’s the whole thing of Drizzy in Dallas with a lil help from King James at the end. Sidebar: Inside Bron Bron and Hov‘s talk with the kids. SMH at SC for hatin’ on dude’s hoop dreams. Ha.
Beans was a guest at Freeway’s show last night in Philly and he’s still singing the same tune. When will he let this shit go with Hov already? And oh yeah, Clifford catches a shot at the end too. B Mack don’t give a fuck, boo!

Well everyone still has an opinion about it. MTV caught up with Uncle Rush and Janet’s ex and got their thoughts. Ok, we at RR are over it too!

At the V.I.P. Jordan Mixer during last weekend, Uncle Bun shows the out-of-towners how they do it in Texas as he performs his verse off “Get Throwed” and Drake’s “Uptown”. So fresh and so trill. YK2 x TNT Previously: Bun B Takes Us To The All-Star Game
[vodpod id=Video.3064028&w=425&h=350&fv=] From last week’s Pun & Dilla tribute on Toca Tuesdays, Just reflects on the first time he met Mr. Rios. He says that Pun purchased unnecessary equipment for his studio and in return to help him fix the problem, he let Just walk away with $15k-$20k worth of production gear. Damn, Just sure hit a goldmine.
Highly overdue Loso, just in case you ain’t know so. Previously: TINC 2 Update
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.
