Ok one mo’ from Jay-Z’s DJ Hero press conference today. This quote he gave NYMag is priceless: “I think after a year with DJ Hero I’m gonna start D.J.-ing parties like Q-tip and all those guys. I already got a whole plan: I’m gonna work on this for a year, then I’m gonna get me a little Serato set, work on that for another six months. Then I’m gonna find out who makes the most. I’m gonna charge double that. […]
“You know they actin’ funny in the back, Mac.” Big jammy-jam in Philly last night and two former rivals showed support to one another. During Jadakiss set he surprised the crowd with the hometown boy, Beanie Sigel. He runs through “Mack Bitch,” his verse from Raekwon’s “Have Mercy,” and “Feel It In The Air,” before dissing Jay-Z?!… Ok, tryin’ to figure this out from the footage. After the end of the first verse of “Feel It The Air” which goes […]

“I just gotta be more careful.” After blamin’ it on the Nuvo, blubberin’ about being hated on for five years, and defending the light-skinned regular chick by his side, Faheem uses Drake’s “Successful” instrumental to send an open letter to Hova. Guess this guy doesn’t believe in Twitter. “Alright, so let’s talk about this Jay shit Somedays I wish that I ain’t never say shit And Diddy said, ain’t no excuse for what I did But I felt like he […]
From across the Atlantic, Jigga Man called Angie Martinez on Hot 97. He spoke on scoring his 11th number one album and Lil Mama crashing his set with Alicia Keys at the MTV VMA’s. Obviously, he wasn’t a happy camper. Previously: Jay-Z Calls Oprah & Gayle

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.
