I’ve been jumping on the Slaughterhouse bandwagon as well. Here’s a video of Slaughterhouse on NY’s Hot 97 with Angie Martinez.
Shout out to NahRight for the find.

Slaughterhouse interview on Hot 97
Posted in News with tags Angie Martinez, Crooked I, Hot 97, Joe Budden, Joell Ortiz, Royce Da 5'9", Slaughterhouse on Friday, August 14, 2009 by Nolan LevensonNew Pacewon and Mr. Green video – “She Can Be So Cold”
Posted in Video with tags Mr. Green, Pacewon on Friday, August 14, 2009 by Nolan LevensonJust got a facebook update about the new video from Pacewon and Mr. Green for their track “She Can Be So Cold” off of last year’s The Only Color that Matters Is Green (which I would HIGHLY recommend).
Black Moon – A Tribute to the Classics live
Posted in Video with tags Black Moon, Dah Shinin', Duck Down, Enta Da Stage, Smif 'n' Wessun on Friday, August 14, 2009 by Nolan LevensonBlack Moon and Smif ‘n’ Wessun have lately been pretty big on performing their classic albums Enta Da Stage and Dah Shinin’, respectively, in their entirety. This video, via 2dopeboyz, has a chunk of Black Moon’s set performing live in Brooklyn for another free show (ugh, I can’t believe I missed this, I just got back to NY). It’s super weird to hear the beats with a live band since I’m so used to letting those Beatminerz beats bang, but still good nonetheless.

Atmosphere / Brother Ali / Reef the Lost Cauze freestyle
Posted in Media, Video with tags Ant, Atmosphere, Brother Ali, Reef the Lost Cauze, Slug on Sunday, August 9, 2009 by Nolan LevensonSo I had the pleasure of seeing Atmosphere oustide the TC at a show in Philadelphia in May on the “When God Give You Ugly Tour” with Brother Ali opening. At the end of the show they brought out Reef the Lost Cauze to freestyle over the “Smart Went Crazy” beat. Reef absolutely killed it and I’m happy I found this video, dropping tons of sweet Philly references (including Wawa!). Unfortunately the sound qualiy isn’t great, but it’s still enjoyable.
Big Daddy Kane live in Brooklyn
Posted in Media, Video with tags Big Daddy Kane, Prospect Park on Sunday, August 9, 2009 by Nolan LevensonGod I wish I was back in NY for this FREE show in Prospect Park. This video comes from 2dopeboyz. Big Daddy Kane did a show in Brooklyn last night. Here’s part of the set with Kane performing “Ain’t No Half Steppin'” off of his debut album of 1988 Long Live the Kane.
The Budden / Wu Beef continues
Posted in News, Video with tags Joe Budden, Raekwon, Wu-Tang Clan on Sunday, August 9, 2009 by Nolan LevensonI cannot believe we are still talking about this, but apparently some rappers’ egos are just to large. Just when we thought the Joe Budden / Wu Tang beef was subsiding, there was apparently a backstage altercation yesterday in Los Angeles. That’s just fanastic. I hate when professional musicians cannot act professional. This bout is childish to say the least. Rock the Bells is supposed to be an event where hip hop’s greats can come together to create a great day of music.
The video above is from Budden’s live stream after he was punched in the eye by someone in Ice Water, Raekwon’s posse. Afterwards, according to HipHopDX, police officials reportedly closed the backstage and the concert performances were cut short. Crooked I apparently went with his posse, Circle of Bosses, to find the assailants and had this to say, “Ain’t nobody gonna disrespect one of my dudes when we on the west coast.“
I really wish that this sort of stuff didn’t happen. It doesn’t benefit anyone.

Posted in Media, Video with tags Rock the Bells, Rock The Bells 2009, Supernatural on Thursday, August 6, 2009 by Nolan LevensonIf you haven’t seen Supernaturl spit a freestyle, you’re missing out. He’s definitely one of the dopest and most entertaining people on stage. Here’s a clip I found on youtube, courtesy of iomosmarad of Supernat at Rock the Bells in NYC. Follow me after the jump for another RTB video from Common’s set doing Black Star’s “Respiration” with Talib Kweli.
