Yesterday, GLC and Gay Fish appeared on 106 & Park to premiere their new videos, “Big Screen” and “Amazin,'” respectively. No disrespect, but GLC looks more like Kanye’s bodyguard than an artist signed to his label. Instead of playing the cut, he maybe he should’ve check his boss’ ego.
“Earlier you asked me, I said I was doing beats for Jay. I said I was doing it and you asked me, was it good? Like what do you mean is it going to be good?”
Fish Sticks anyone?

Yesterday, the androgynous one made an appearance on Ellen. Don’t know about you, but looking at Prince too long gives me the creeps.

In the new issue of XXL, Marshall addresses the Asher Roth comparisons.
“Asher Roth, I haven’t had a chance to, like, really get into everything, like, really get into what he’s about, because I’ve only heard a couple songs. There was talk about people saying he sounded like me, and he was doing this and that and, you know, trying to take what I do and do it. You know, shit like that. I’ve heard things. But the stuff that I’ve heard from him honestly, which certainly isn’t enough for me to make my own opinion and say, ‘Yeah, he does sound like me’ or ‘No, he doesn’t.’ But the couple of songs I’ve head, I don’t really think he does. You know what I mean? He’s doing his own thing. I can respect it, too, because at the end of the day, I think he’s dope.”
Well, there you have it folks. Fuck more you want for free? The June XXL drops nationwide May 5, Support your local newsstands!
Bonus: Em also mentions working with two other rappers from their Freshman 10 cover.
Better late than never.

“More publicity. More infamy. More money. More problems.”
It’s ridiculous how long I had to wait to get this song. Ha! Here’s my fellow mulatto’s new one featuring a buncha Southern niggas: Gucci Mane, Yo Gotti, OJ Da Juiceman and Lonnie Mac (who?). Hope he’s from the South. See ya at the strip club!

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.
