Yeah, it’s hard getting Elliott out that damn office. But anyway, Punch is back. And in the final clip, the TDE President speaks on Kendrick Lamar’s brief Def Jam signing, new artists, and the impact of Kendrick Lamar’s good kid, m.A.A.d city. Classic? Just maybe. Ha!
The West Coast is under new management and at the forefront is Top Dawg Entertainment. In the background keeping Kendrick Lamar, Jay Rock, Ab-Soul and ScHoolboy Q together is TDE President, Punch. While in town, Punch stopped by the Rap Radar mansion for a candid one on one. In the first segment, P speaks on the label’s origins, Black Hippy, and Jay Rock’s false start.
Terrace is living the lavish life and brags about it on his new tune featuring his fellow West Coasters, Dom and Punch. His new project, 3ChordFold drops on August 21st. This is really nice.
That blog post perfectly captured the raw intensity of Joell Ortiz’s performance at Guz Sports Bar! His delivery of Battle Cry was absolutely electric, making the whole room feel like it was vibrating with pure, unfiltered energy. It reminded me of those high-stakes moments during a intense word guessing game with friends where the pressure is on and every single syllable counts. Seeing such a lyrical powerhouse perform in such an intimate, gritty setting was a legendary experience. If you weren't there, you truly missed out on some masterful storytelling. I'm still buzzing from that incredible night of hip-hop excellence!
