The homies at the TSS just put me on to this footage. Uploaded by Forbez DVD a couple days ago, it’s Juvenile and B.G. joining Lil Wayne on stage during his I Am Music Tour. You can even see Drake on stage. Check out Weezy bowin’ down to Juve and Baby huggin’ B.G. Never thought I’d see that again. Too bad this reunion ain’t never gonna happen. Belie’ that © Birdman

Auto-Tune’s poster boys phone in with NigelD and address Shawn C.’s Napalm Bomb, “D.O.A.”
Yes, gentleman using Auto-Tune in 2009 is trite. To quote Mr. Dennis Coles, “Get your own shit and be original!” How can the music evolve if everyone is doing the same thing? What works for the goose doesn’t always work for the gander. You see Webstar, even if your record plays on the radio every five minutes, it doesn’t mean that it’s good. What it means is that it’s locked into the listeners memory thanks to repetition. “Dancing On Me” may be your only record using Auto-Tune, but I doubt the other songs are raising the bar in hip-hop. There’s nothing wrong with “dance” records, as long as they’re not executed cheesy. As for Browz, I think your hip-hop contributions are best left on the MPC. But hey, what do I know. I’m just a rap fan.
After the jump, No I.D. adds his 2 Cents.
Cash Money’s latest Millionaire has a belly laugh and asthma attack on this new cut. Someone call a medic.

About two hours ago, Kanye appeared on Barber Walters’ morning gig and discussed his mothers passing, Chris Allen’s “Heartless” cover and touring with Lady Gaga this fall. At the 7:06 mark, he drops a quick eight bars.
The animal right freaks over at PETA recently sent Clifford a kite in reference to joining their “Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” campaign. Personally, I’m waiting for the “Rather Go Naked Than Wear Yeezys” movement to take flight.

Masego continues to show his creativity and versatility with Studying Abroad: Extended Stay. The combination of live instrumentation, smooth vocals, and West Indian influences makes this project an exciting listening experience. Adding new collaborations with talented artists gives fans even more reasons to explore the album and appreciate its musical diversity. I also appreciate how music and learning can connect through creativity, exploration, and new experiences. In the same way that listeners explore different musical styles, people can improve their practical skills by learning useful techniques such as "How to calculate proportions easily". Understanding proportions can make everyday calculations, comparisons, and problem solving much simpler. This is a great reminder that exploring new ideas can be rewarding in music, education, and daily life.
