Since his last video was so on point, it’s not surprising the kid Classified had to go against the theme of “Quit While You’re Ahead” to grace us with this Canadian All-Star posse cut/third single/video from his still steadily-bumped 2009 album Self-Explanatory.

Keep up the hustle.

Philly fans are wild. I’ll leave it at that. With the World Series set to start tonight in the Bronx, you better believe it’s the hottest ticket in either town seeing as how Philly and New York are only separated by a few hours. Although I do expect Phillies fans to let their presence be known, there’s one who won’t be making the trip. Meet Susan Finkelstein.

Susie happens to be a devout Phillies fan and will go to any length to prove her loyalty. And by ANY, I mean ANY… Read the rest of this entry »

Last night marked the opening of the 2009 NBA season, so of course, the champions received with their rings. And, of course, Nike gave Kobe a special pair of shoes…because that’s what sneaker companies do for top-dollar, accomplished athletes, they worship the ground they walk on and gift them with things. I’ve never worn a pair of yellow & purple kicks but these are hardbody. Read the rest of this entry »

I was planning on settling down last night and catching the BET Hip-Hop Awards, but it didn’t feel right since they slighted us and, more importantly, Contra™ in his own backyard.  But while out making moves, I realized I really only wanted to see the ciphers any way and save watching the actual show for one of the countless times they’ll replay it.  That way the family will have something to watch on Thanksgiving in between games.  So if you like me and went on with your life and need to catch up or you want to revisit what I assume were the best ten minutes of the awards, check the videos & audio below.

Regardless of that, that ‘net (& in turn the streets) must be feed so here we are at the proverbial fork in the road. You can either rest on your scruples and wait for a group rip with cover & official tracklist or hit the link below. Read the rest of this entry »
