In the film, Victor performs his hit, “Grimey” on 42st between 7th and 8th Ave’s at the Legends of Hip-Hop concert. Does Tommy Boy still suck?

Remember that 106 and Jay episode BET did awhile back? They fucked up and aired the same 45 minute segment—twice! Ha! Anyways, that’s the only time I recall Jay performin’ “Big Pimpin'” with both members of UGK. Bun B can prolly correct me if I’m wrong. Maybe it’s just the only time that we have footage of it. Enjoy. R.I.P., The Pimp.

Previously: Pimp C Passed on Jay-Z’s “A Week Ago”

B.Dot would never post this. Ha! This is actually a pretty good exchange between Busta and your favorite “journalist.” In the first clip, Vlad gets Bus to talk about L.O.N.S. beef with more details than I ever heard before. And after the jump, Trevor tells how Diddy got him to switch his style up and why he packs a machete. That’s right, a machete!

In one of his earliest interviews to promote his debut album, Redman takes the tissue out of his nose and talks about the drama of sample clearances around the two min mark. He says Quincy Jones charged him 60 K. Ouch.

Who’s dude gettin’ his Lady Gaga on? Anyways, I like how Mr. Folarin interacts with the crowd at the end. And oh yeah, the video debuts Monday on MTV unless someone can get their hands on it earlier.

“If your pussy clean, let me hear you scream!”

In case you ain’t know, Young Jeezy and the CTE did it big in the MIA last weekend. And of course, somebody had to shoot it. My favorite part: Jizzle and the crew walkin’ home from the club. And oh yeah, Mr. Jenkins has a new motto this year: “It’s just us and the guns.” “Fuck swag, nigga. I got savoir-faire.” Bet Curtis approves that message.

And oh yeah, the soundtrack here is track #17 off the new mixtape.
