Tom Caruana flips samples from the Fab Four over classic Wu-Tang tracks. Blends for days. Download it here and peep the tracklist after the break.
“This man is a musical genius” Before I headed to BK to see Jay Elect, I actually stopped by Timbo’s show at Irving Plaza for a grand total of 20 mins. So I missed Puff comin’ out and doin’ “Mo Money, Mo Problems”. Hmm. Not bad. Bonus: Here’s some strange show opening footage I caught of Tim. Hey, I stay with the Flip, kid. Sample this!
One of the greatest groups in history reunited last night. Ashamed to admit I missed this. Hey, I’m 39 I need to catch some shut-eye sometimes. Sorry Kamaal. I saw you walkin around the spot incognito like the fuckin’ “Hot Sex” video. Ha! Omen UPDATE: LTD Mag got better footage.

[vodpod id=Video.2904676&w=425&h=350&fv=] Here’s the Press Play intv as promised, which is pretty blah until the 3:40 mark when Wale puts together a couple of fictional supergroups. Who knew dude was such a Young Dro fan.
Finally got a chance to check out the visual from Sha Money XL’s new artist, Kidd Kidd. Remember, dude used to roll with Lil Wayne and was the feature on “Mrs. Officer”. Here, he laments the losses his hometown suffered from Hurrricane Katrina and dedicates the song to the people of Haiti. Good stuff.
Back in December, The Officer performed in Wyclef’s homeland. WSHH just released some behind the scenes footage, but I prefer the clip above that I found on YouTube. Pretty sure, this won’t be the last time we see a rapper perform there.
Here’s some mo’ flicks of Weezy and The World’s Most Dangerous Group (ha!) creating the video for “Roger That”. While in Miami, they actually shot another visual to “Girl I Got You” too. Happy happy joy joy! Lil Wayne HQ

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.
