We started the week in a reflective mode as we took time out to remember the untimely passing of Pac, sadly a day late but a lot sooner than most. Nate Dogg also made a splash in the media as we wish him a speedy and full recovery.
On wider scope, the country (and rappers), rallied to recover after Hurricane Ike struck Texas and made his presence felt all the way up in the Mid-West. The Stock Market tanked as institutions that have been around since The Great Depression received a golden life raft from the Government with our tax money. It’s still mind boggling that Jeezy’s the only one addressing this. Kinda puts us in perspective as we took stock of what TSS is and isn’t. We’ll let it slide this time VH1 since Hip-Hop Honors looks good this year. The National Anthem had a rough week as Kat & Josh were caught with the cameras rolling.
Believe it or not, with all of that we actually discussed music as well this week too. Khaled and LL actually dropped albums this week, while Doom re-released one due to a busy touring schedule (right). Good luck finding them in Best Buy though… With that being said: Mixtapes by far held the week down in terms of new material. Gucci tried his hand at a movie since he’s taking an extended vacation.
Kanye swears he got the game on lock, so our Smoking Session was kept within an One Block Radius this week. Luckily things turned up golden for everyone involved. Killer Mike came through with another Massacre, albeit a day late. There were rumors of a Paper Trail being left behind, but it must have blown away with Ike.
Since TSS loves the kids, we helped them step their rap game up and gave them insight on what to play when they cash in their V-card. They had no problems pulling up their jeans, once we told them it was the only way to get a new flick from H.E.R. For passing the curriculum with flying colors – they were rewarded with places to cop shirts and fitteds to complete their outfits.
Not only do we love the kids, but (say it with me): TSS <3's P too!

4 killed in SC plane crash; drummer, DJ injured
DJ AM and ex-Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker are in critical condition after a plane crash.
WEST COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Hours after performing for thousands of South Carolina college students, former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and celebrity DJ AM were critically injured in a fiery Learjet crash that killed four people, authorities said Saturday.
Officials said the plane carrying six people was departing shortly before midnight Friday when air traffic controllers reporting seeing sparks. The plane hurtled off the end of a runway and crashed through antennas and a fence. It came to rest on an embankment across a five-lane highway and was engulfed in flames, said Debbie Hersman, a member of the National Transportation Safety Board.
Barker and DJ AM, whose real name is Adam Goldstein, were in critical condition at a burn center in Augusta, Ga., about 75 miles southwest of Columbia, hospital spokeswoman Beth Frits said.
Two other passengers — Chris Baker, 29, of Studio City, Calif., and Charles Still, 25, of Los Angeles — died, as did pilot Sarah Lemmon, 31, of Anaheim Hills, Calif., and co-pilot James Bland, 52, of Carlsbad, according to the county coroner. Baker was an assistant to Barker and Still was a security guard for the musician.
The plane was headed for Van Nuys, Calif. It is owned by Global Exec Aviation, a California-based charter company, and was certified to operate last year, Hersman said. The company said it had no immediate comment.
At the crash site Saturday, the air was still heavy with the odor of jet fuel. A trail of black soot led off a runway. The nose of the aircraft was gone and the roof was missing from two-thirds of the charred plane.
“It’s absolutely terrible and tragic,” Columbia Mayor Bob Coble said.
Barker and Goldstein had performed together under the name TRVSDJ-AM at a free concert in Columbia on Friday night. Event sponsor T-Mobile said their hourlong set ended at about 7:15 p.m.
The show, which included performances by former Jane’s Addiction singer Perry Farrell and singer Gavin DeGraw, drew 10,000 people into the streets of Five Points, the neighborhood near the University of South Carolina, Coble said.
Peter Kastis, Farrell’s manager, said he and Farrell didn’t find out about the crash until they arrived at the airport Saturday morning to find it closed.
“I just hugged them hello less than 24 hours ago. I wish I could hug them now,” Kastis said.
One concertgoer said TRVSDJ-AM’s performance was unique and different.
“It was literally one of the best shows I’ve ever seen,” said Brett Flashnick, a freelance photographer who works for The Associated Press and attended the concert for a local newspaper.
Barker, 32, was one of the more colorful members of the multiplatinum-selling punk rock band Blink-182, whose biggest album was 1999′s CD “Enema of the State,” which sold more than five million copies in the United States alone.
After Blink-182 disbanded in 2005, Barker went on to form the rock band (+44) — pronounced “plus forty-four.” He also starred in the MTV reality series “Meet the Barkers” with former Miss USA Shanna Moakler, to whom he was married at the time. The show documented the former couple’s lavish wedding and life. Their later split, reconciliation and subsequent break up made them tabloid favorites.
Goldstein is a popular DJ for hire who at one time was engaged to Nicole Richie.
He spun a mix of hip-hop and dance beats for the hottest nightclubs and had a string of dates set up for the next few weeks. He reached the peak of his celebrity perhaps during his highly publicized romance with Richie a few years ago.
DJ AM also dated singer/actress Mandy Moore, and while he became a gossip favorite for his romances, he drew respect from music aficionados for his DJ skills.
Barker and Goldstein performed as part of the house band at the MTV Video Music Awards earlier this month.
