Had to pull an OG move and bumrush the backstage area to get some intvw time with Wale. We mostly discussed his upcoming album, but I did manage to throw in a Charles Hamilton question real quick that he wasn’t feelin’. Ha! “I’m just doin’ my job.” (c) Clifford “You’re Fired” Trump

Guess someone forgot to tell those ThisIs50 fools, that it’s G-Unit day. Ha!
Oh yeah, I took a gander at your slander and without a government name attached, I don’t respect it.
Tune into Take It Personal for more of my thoughts. We know you listen.

Ok here’s the rest of my PR footage that I’m willin’ to share. Above is the full freestyle of lyrics from what would become The Black Album‘s “The Threat.” And after the jump, with their leader exiting the stage, the Roc Boys go crazy.

Peace to Mikey Fresh, I was also at the Wale show last night. Sorry, I missed Roc Nation’s J. Cole. I heard he did his thing, but D.C.’s Finest delivered as the closer. As I witnessed in SXSW, it amazes me how these new rap cats have a catalogue of mixtape songs that devoted fans know word for word. With their own personal requests included. I don’t want to sound like Flex, but the power of the Internets is a mutha.
Here’s three clips from Allido Records franchise (What up, Rich) of his most known tunes. Also, got footage of special guests Young Chris and Kid Cudi on the way. And an interview backstage with the man of the hour himself. YN vs. Wale? Y’all niggas ain’t ready.

In the film, Trey explains the meaning behind his underground hit. Sorry, but Dwayne’s verse gives me the creeps.
“The idea of success of what it’s shown to be. It ain’t having stocks, it’s not wealth, it’s not taking care if your kids. When you look at that TV Screen, you see money cars clothes and hoes…The way most inner city youths view it, that’s what it is.”

“Shit, there’s so much muthafuckin journalism’, it’s hard for me to say journalism”
In a brief interview on the final leg of his L.A.X. Tour, Jayceon issues an open Playstation challenge and talks about working on his upcoming album. I hope it comes with 50% less name drops this time around.

Call Me If You Get Lost: The Estate Sale is an absolute masterpiece that adds even more depth to Tyler’s already incredible discography. The new tracks feel like essential missing pieces, perfectly capturing that signature swagger and raw lyricism we all love.Listening to this project is as satisfying as watching a high-quality Construction Larnaca site evolve; it’s precise, ambitious, and builds something truly lasting. The production is top-tier, and the guest features fit like puzzle pieces. It’s the perfect way to wrap up this era. If you haven't spun it yet, you’re definitely missing out on some serious heat.
