OK, let’s balance B.Dot’s Gay Fish bashin’ (Hey the kid’s from Southside Jamaica, Queens—he ain’t got no boss) and post what appears to be the final version of the “Paranoid” video. Again, I think this joint had summer hit potential, but the video goes in a whole other direction. Nice try but…
Props: Nah Right
Sidebar: SeanTheRobot got good ears. It does sound re-mastered. That I like and appreciate.
Ma, you got a sticker on your head.

Three days ago at the MTV Movie Awards, Sacha Baron Cohen caused a firestorm as “Bruno” when he landed ass first on Eminem. Many speculated for the days whether the stunt was staged or real, with everyone speaking except the man himself. Breaking his silence, Em spoke exclusively to Rap Radar about the entire “ordeal”.
It’s not good when your album leaks the same day it gets pushed back two months. This guy stays losing. SMH.

Who says Nawlins hustlin’ big bosess can’t get along? In today’s V60, Weezy’s poppa gives it up to Mr. Miller.
Baby: I mean, shit, to me, Master P was one of the best hustlers to ever do this shit. He did it big—35 albums in one year, bruh. Ain’t nobody ever did that. I think he did it one of the best. I think Master P accomplished something nobody ever did and probably nobody will ever do, too. To where today that seems damn impossible. I just stayed focused on what we was doing. I ain’t never wanted to be what the next man was doing. I respect what they accomplished.
Cosign: I was workin’ at The Source during No Limit mania and it really was insane. Barbara P had an advance CD like every other week for the kid. I still got my custom leather jacket somewhere. Yeah, YN witnessed a movement or two. Or ten. Or fifteen. Or 20. Ha!
I got an email today from Def Jam about their latest signing from South Carolina. Apparently dude has a really big record called “Nasty Song” and is no longer on good terms with a certain controversial radio personality.

Sidebar: Word in the tweets, is that Ghosts’ new album is going to be more R&B than Rap. Think Beyonce’s “Summertime (Remix)”.
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.
