At the Heineken Red Star Soul Concert in Atlanta, Big Boi along with Neil Garrad debuts a cut off Sir Luscious Left Foot. The sound is muffled, but hopefully you can catch moments of clarity.

My neighbor weighs in on the Plaxico case, the flick he’s filming, and praises ‘Ye’s verse from “Run This Town.” Don’t touch my mail, Lonnie! Of Course: Fake Shore Drive

Now this is the Beans I know. Peep the new visual directed by Picture Perfect. It’s nothing like it, I swear. Props: WSHH Update: Sigel on the set knocks out an interview.
Been trying to get the MP3 of this all week. The story goes Slaughterhouse was booked for Hot 97’s new morning show, Cipha Sounds and Rosenberg. But because Mouse didn’t want to speak on the Raekwon situation, they shelved the sitdown. They did get them to freestyle over “The What” instrumental and played it on the air which I heard half-asleep one morning. Got it? Either way, just listen to 3/4ths of Slaughterhouse play pass the mic. Too bad Joell needed a lozenge. Ha! No shots.

Sidebar: The Internets are warring over the Slaughterhouse sub-par SoundScan performance. Pretty entertaining stuff. I may weigh in with my take next week.
Omarion is gettin’ his tweet on. Says he did not get served. 1-2-3: We Don’t Believe You! I think Bow Wow goin’ to Cash Money had something to do with it. UPDATE: O Speaks. Someone needs to explain to me what this SayNow shit is all about.

“We De La til the death/ Or at least until we break-up.”
Look at the dopeness I’ve found. In my book, this Grind Date closer was the last great De La Soul record. Yeah I said it. Of course, MF Doom is missed from last week’s show at the Nokia Theater, but the brothers from Long Island still bring the stop-and-go craziness. Freeze!
Props: LTD
And if that ain’t good enough, here’s the album version.

Good grief, at this rate you’d think a record label was overseeing the burial. According to CNN, MJ’s funeral service has been changed from his birthday to September 3rd. His final resting place remains at Glendale Forest Lawn Memorial Park.
What better way to cap off the week than with another installment of Jay Rock’s month of madness. They do it for hip-hop. You do it for a check. I do it for both.

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.
