The Smoking Section has never been guilty of doling out 5 Cigarettes in a single sitting. Nor is the TSS factory machined to give Cig ratings to any singers whatsoever. But gosh darn if Janelle Monae hasn’t put forth a solid argument for the decimation of our office common law. Read the rest of this entry »
Back with another installment of his quarterly series, Skillz took his confessional show on the road to NYC for part five. And who can blame him? As the epicenter of our beloved culture, the city that never sleeps has to be full of people wanting to clear their conscience. In an effort to provide the greatest catharsis possible Skillz targeted those who’ve had a considerable amount of contact with good ‘ol Lucifer over the years. Featuring hitmen past & present; Deric “D. Dot” Angelettie, Sean C, LV & Young Chris (thrown in for good measure) all seek the restorative powers from the VA journeyman.
Every time one of these come out, there’s always one story that stands a cut above the rest. This time that honor goes to D. Dot. Anytime you can combine Diddy, Ma$e, a hit record & a wager for publishing all in one tale, then your destined to win. Sean C’s also is pretty interesting… mainly due to the fact that it involves one the other participants, which makes for nice ‘lil double whammy.
Credit has to be given to Skillz for keeping this series going. Although he’s not flooding the block with new ones in frequent fashion, whenever one does appear, it’s always well worth the time to go through the whole video.
See y’all sometime in July.
Skillz presents: Hip-Hop Confessions ep. 5 from Visually Inklined
Haiti was on the forefront of everyone’s minds this week, both near and far. A lot of people rushed in with support efforts for a country that’s long been forgotten and overlooked. Sadly, some people saw this as a good time to bring up a non-profit’s faulty books, while not keeping in mind how it might affect aid to Haiti. Read the rest of this entry »

Mason Betha has been the butt of more jokes than any man should be. Many times it has been of his own making, but it’s hard to not admit that he is probably the biggest victim of the Bad Boy curse. Read the rest of this entry »

I have no clue as to what Diddy is up to right now.
Well, let me not lie. I know that he has an album due called Last Train To Paris with his group Dirty Money. Read the rest of this entry »

With all the foolishness going around when Diddy was “Making Da Band,” who knew Lil’ Sara was the one you’d need to keep your eye on? Read the rest of this entry »

EDIT — Bad Boy with the C&D’s. So if you came to see Cassie, you’ll see Lil P. Sorry lol. But I’m sure if you look around, you can find them still. Don’t blame us Bad Boy. These innernuts are too fierce. Especially now that the lower half is now out.
Really, who saw this coming?
Via her Twitter…
^ Hacked? What is this War Games? Nobody’s still sitting around hacking computers. But you’re right Cassie it’s only a set of breasts. What I’m really hoping is that this is only the prelude to a sex tape I hope.
On my word, Mase was a blessing and curse for his Harlem World experiment.
One side of the argument says he gave them the necessary star-power to even be noticed in a crowded rap world. But the stronger argument says, the Bad Boy affiliation handicapped them. Too much Read the rest of this entry »
After I heard about it, it took a minute to find this bad boy (no pun). As far as I know, its origins come from around ’99 on old Kay Slay tape. Just a reminder that from the house that Puff built, Black Rob was one of the best.
