Words By Jason Hortillas Wale. Skyzoo. Illmind. All three have made some noise individually but combined it looks like the future of Hip-Hop is in good hands. Yes, it may be too early to solidify any one of them into a definitive chapter in Hip-Hop history, but you can’t deny that all three are...

…or would that be a flagrant? At least you know I ain’t just preachin’ it. Last night, I took my happy ass to Best Buy too & I will be going to see them on May 27 as well. We’ll be pluggin’ the winner for the Erykah Badu Giveaway very soon. If you entered, watch your...

The first shall be last and the last shall be first… Just as predicted, the last track on the GZA’s seminal classic Liquid Swords was the first time much of the Hip-Hop world was exposed to the spiritual diatribes from one Killah Priest. Much like the diametrical views displayed on “B.I.B.L.E....

When we first posted the snippet, you were warned that this song’s reign would be a long one. Well, it’s number one in the country right now. Lil Wayne - A Milli BW Lollipop (Promo CDS) ^ Snatch the instrumental & show the world you’re better than Wayne. Lil Wayne — Whose...

Words By Khalid Strickland EPMD’s goodwill tour finally touched down at a sold-out Nokia Theater in New York City. Much like the Super Bowl-winning Giants, the legendary duo of Parrish Smith and Erick Sermon received a heroes’ welcome in their home city. But before EPMD stormed the...

Phonte speaks via his Myspace… “…he would’ve been signed to a record deal.” I know it sounds crazy, but it really ain’t THAT crazy. It seems to me that becoming a rapper is the only way that Black male victims of our justice system can receive any sort of “justice”...

Don’t this song & video both have that energetic, funny 90’s-version of Busta that we love? Isn’t it good to see Spliff Star beside Busta again too? Didn’t he have “Touch It” a few years back, now it’s “Don’t Touch Me”? Is Busta the only...

Words By Patrick M. It’s easy to forget what a force X to the Z was before “Pimp My Ride” was ever conceived. He led the way in representing the West Coast underground with the late 90’s releases At The Speed Of Life and 40 Dayz and 40 Nightz. Three songs off 40 Dayz… remain...

Prime example of why Drew says rappers don’t need to get involved. But I digress. David D. expressed a need for our artists to use their voices to make sure our generation & Hip-Hop itself was heard. I’ll spare you my full opinion

You were buying the album anyways, right? Well how about a chance to buy the album, show your support…and win something in the process? Yep, we’re back at it, just like we did before with the TSS x Little Brother “Proof Of Purchase” Giveway. Same process to enter… 1. Grab...

The legendary Roots crew is an enigma within the realm of Hip-Hop because they are known for their live performance & use of instruments, moreso than for their actual albums. This is partly due to the fact that they don’t cater to the desires of fans or try to keep up with what’s going...

Words By David D. This past weekend was the biggest party weekend at Davidson College. I drank, partied and was in that zone since Wednesday night. Then I woke up this morning and it hit me… Those muthafuckin pigs got off the hook. No time. Nothing. 50 shots. Usually my iPod gives me a...
