DJ Whoo Kid & Cookin’ Soul - Night Of The Living Dead Part II: 2Pac Edition

The cover is about as creepy as this piece of harsh nostalgia, but DJ Whoo Kid & Cookin Soul are breathing new life in the blend concept yet again with Tupac Amaru Shakur as their host this time around.

That Time Around…

As more fans continue to stumble upon Michael Jackson material that’s been available unbeknown to them, it’s time to revisit one particular track that never gets celebrated in the Hip-Hop community as it should. Never officially released as single, this beefer for the HIStory: Past, Present...

Lil’ Cease & Cardan - “Ten Crack Commandments” Video

Shame on the entire internet for acting like March 9th was the coming of a new moon and then getting convenient amnesia the preceding day. This cut

B.I.G. Shoes To Fill…

“N*ggas is actors, n*ggas deserve Oscars…” - The Notorious B.I.G. Just think: if Jamal Woodlard was an actor by trade, he’d go on to play a bumbling security guard in a Disney movie followed by the “token Black guy” in a Judd Apatow flick without being haunted by...

“Dancing On The Moon…” - Lil Kim’s Debut On Dancing With The Stars

Words By Thembi Pic By ABC I usually don’t watch Dancing With The Stars because of the corny cover music, barely famous “stars,” and obnoxious judges. But this season, aside from the marginally interesting David Allen Grier and Denise Richards, there’s Hip-Hop’s own overly...

DJ Drama & Cookin’ Soul - The Notorious B.I.G. Tribute Mixtape

Thanks in part to the Notorious movie, Hip-Hop has been fortunate to undergo a Biggie resurrection of sorts on the World Wide Web. The forgotten videos, unreleased music, the B.I.G. comadarie — all have been an invigorating compliment to a legend who basically batted 1.000 in his short but storied...

“Still Notorious…”

Dear Christopher Frank White Wallace, Yeah, it’s your boy Contra™, I just wanna holla. It’s been 12 years now since that fateful day and it’s mind-boggling that you’ve been gone so long. I’ll keep this brief because everything to say has been said or will be said by others...

Jadakiss Feat. Faith Evans - “Letter To B.I.G.” Video

Audio - Jadakiss Feat. Faith Evans - Letter To B.I.G. Let’s try this again. Last week, Jada’s “Letter To B.I.G.” video leaked & was squashed by the powers that be because it wasn’t ready. The missing element?

Jadakiss Feat. Faith Evans - “Letter To B.I.G.” Video

Video kindly removed by request Audio - Jadakiss Feat. Faith Evans - Letter To B.I.G. It’s been one hellavu nostalgic joyride with the flurry of B.I.G. coverage since Notorious hit theaters. The man’s been dead nearly twelve years and he’s hotter than some of these so-called next generation...

Lil’ Cease - “Letter To B.I.G.”

I got gripes with this joint for a number of reasons. –It actually may be better than Jada’s record. –How did Busta Rhymes inspire him to do this when he had “x” amount of years with B.I.G. or it’s in similar format to Jada’s?

“Remember Back In The Day…Remix”

As far as I’m concerned, there’s NO SUCH thing as too much Notorious B.I.G. coverage. As long as the Internet permits, his memory will be fresh in the minds of the TSS community. Thanks to TheMeaningOfDope, who have been having a Biggie week in honor of the Notorious release, there’s...

“Remember Back In The Day…”

The excitement of Notorious is sure bringing videos out the woodwork. Let’s just hope that his pron tapes stay in the vaults to which they lay. According to The Kaos Effect, here’s the scoop on the video: The 411 Knowledge & Entertainment Show had the opportunity to sit down with one...

The Notorious Ones: Naturi Naughton, K.I.M. & “Notorious”

By now, everybody has been bombarded with the news of Lil’ Kim being pissed over her portrayal in Notorious to the point where people are wishing she was never in his life in the first place. After seeing the biopic last week and sifting back through Kim’s, Ms. Wallace and Faith’s...

“Don’t Drink 8-Ball, Cuz St. Ides’ Is Givin’ Ends…”

While slangin’ bean pies and St. Ides in the same sentences ultimately just leads to bruised egos, the premium malt liquor’s commercial impact on hardcore Hip-Hop is nothing to chastise. Albums like Enter The Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers, Reasonable Doubt, and We Can’t Be Stopped may be considered...
