Fat Joe is about to drop his 10th album… 10th!!! Can you believe it? Feels like only yesterday I heard him lay his first verse on Showbiz & AG’s classic Represent in 1992. Fat Joe has gone through a lot of phases, he always keeps up with the latest trends so it didn’t surprise me that Jeezy was on his new single Slow Down. Also to make sure the beat was as bangin’ as possible, he got Scoop De Ville to lace him with something fierce. Scoop if you didn’t know, was the man who produced Snoop Dogg’s I Wanna …read more

The title got you, didn’t it? So, you’ve probably caught wind of the current criticism circled around Jay-Z and camp by now. Headlines are calling Beyonce, Rihanna and Jay-Z everything from Freemason/ Illuminati to Devil Worshipping demons. I’ve watched a handful of youtube flicks upwards of 45 minutes long dissecting music videos for satanic imagery and Freemason symbols. Some even go as far as playing records backwards to hear evil word repetition in the beats. I’ve got a little conspiracy theory of my own and it has nothing to do with the devil and everything to do with free publicity. …read more

Hey what’s Brand Nubian been up to lately? It’s been a minute since their classic One For All album dropped. Puba went solo after that, I’m kind of glad he did. Lord Jamar did something, Sadat did Wild Cowboys, I know all this. I mean recently where have they been… Well I know what Sadat X is doing! Drinking lots of wine and sounding like ODB! Sadat’s True Wine Connoisseur is a Youtube series, where he rates wines that are under twenty dollars. In this episode, our favorite Five Percenter rapper opens up a bottle of Castle Rock ($12.99) and …read more

Just want to shine a spotlight on 90’s rapper Apache who died last Friday of an unknown protracted illness. Apache is best know for his banging hit single Gansta Bitch off the debut album Apache Ain’t Shit. His first appearance was in 1990 as the front man of Queen Latifah’s Flavor Unit on The 45 King Presents The Flavor Unit album. Apache worked with Fat Joe, Naughty By Nature and A Tribe Called Quest among others. He will be missed.

The Hope For Haiti Telethon featuring Jay-Z, Wyclef Jean, Rihanna and others aired on January 22nd on most major broadcast networks. The totals are in and the event is said to have raised over $61 million in relief efforts. Check out the clip below.

By now the whole world is focused on the devastating earthquake that hit Haiti a few days ago. While our prayers and donations go out to the families, workers and survivors, Haitian born Wyclef Jean of the Fugees flew over for some more hands-on aid.  Kind of reminds me of Sean Penn in New Orleans. Wyclef and his family are physically pulling bodies out of rubble and saving anyone they can. He believes the death toll could be well over the 100,000 estimated, it’s an overwhelming number that is hard for me to process. He urges everyone to donate to …read more

About a month ago I did an interview with a DJ/ Producer out of Toronto by the name of Lancecape. We talked about Scarborough, burgers, GTA talent and this dirty beat he made for Keith Murray and Canibus on The Undergods EP (check out the interview here). Anyway, if you read it you’ll know that Lancecape is keeping busy and personally I can’t wait to see what he comes out with next. He just hit me up with the lead single for his remix project Second The Best, due to release in mid February. The track title is Plan B “The 2K-TEN” …read more
