Raekwon, “Walk With Me” (Video)

Posted in Media, Video with tags , , , on Tuesday, September 8, 2009 by Tim Althaus

Vodpod videos no longer available.

I’ve been trying to work on the review for OB4CL2 like crazy, but I don’t think it’s going to be ready until tomorrow due to school work. You may recall that I posted this track yesterday, and thanks to Hip Hop Official we have the official video for “Walk With Me” today. Talk about the definition of yet another dope video from The Chef, he’s killing it on the music video tip. Make sure you go out and cop Only Built 4 Cuban Linx 2, it’s that real shit that you’ve been craving for quite some time.

Talib Kweli & Hi-Tek Perform New Track Off of Revolutions Per Minute

Man, there is way too much good music coming out right now (did I really just say that?). Shouts to 2DopeBoyz for the lok on this one. Reflection Eternal (Talib & Hi-Tek) were in Washington DC recently, and they performed a new track off of their upcoming album. The new album will be epically titled Revolutions Per Minute, and unfortunately there is no tentative release date yet. By the sounds of the video, this track is beyond sick and it almost gives me that grimy vibe that “More or Less” gave me. Another thing you will notice is why Kweli is one of the best emcees in the history of the game. Oh boy, Kwe & Tek got me fiending  for a new Reflection album real bad.

Raekwon Talks About the Making of Only Built 4 Cuban Linx 2

Posted in Media, Video with tags , , , on Monday, September 7, 2009 by Tim Althaus

Tomorrow is the day that Only Built 4 Cuban Linx 2 drops, are you ready? I will be purchasing the album on my break in between classes tomorrow morning, and I will be bumping it for the rest of the day repeatedly. Hip Hop Official had the chance to sit down with The Chef and talk about all of the blood sweat and tears that went into OB4CL2. Rae talks about a lot of the things that hindered his ability to make this album, and why it has taken so long. Much like Ghost said in one of my previous posts, The Wu isn’t broken up, they are just in a lot of different pieces right now. The Chef also discusses that he made Only Built 4 Cuban Linx 2 for the people, because that’s what they wanted. He also mentions that more artists should be doing what the fans want (co-sign).

Hov Already Discussing A “New” Album?

Posted in Media, Video with tags , , on Monday, September 7, 2009 by Tim Althaus

Vodpod videos no longer available.

Blueprint 3 drops tomorrow, and despite all of the hatred I’ve been showing towards the album, I can assure you that I will still be making a purchase. Jay-Z is still one of my favorite emcees, despite the fact that Kanye is producing over half of the album. With all of that set aside, we can talk about this video. In the video above, Hov talks about his next album. That’s right, he’s already talking about what’s to come after Blueprint 3. He makes it sound like this one is going to be very experimental, and even goes on to say that it won’t be a #1 album. Bring it on Jigga, I want to hear that shit.

Ghostface Interview With Thisis50

Posted in Media, Video with tags , , , , on Monday, September 7, 2009 by Tim Althaus

I never get sick of hearing news about Ghostface, because the guy is a fucking beast and a legend. Thisis50.com recently sat down with Ghost Deini himself, and discussed a few key issues. He discusses how much he has learned being in the game, and how he wishes he knew back then what he knows now. He also discusses his relationship with the rest of the Wu-Tang Clan. He says that the Clan is cool, but it seems like they don’t really see each other as much as they used to because of solo work. Another thing that Ghost discusses is how Staten Island is different from the rest of the Burroughs in New York. Also make sure you listen to Ghost ring in on the current state of Hip-Hop, he makes some damn good points about the industry.

This is a video tribute to the people of New Orleans four years after Hurricane Katrina from 2-Cent.com & Mos Def. Might Mos speaks some wise words of knowledge, and takes a tour through post-Katrina New Orleans. If any of you know about Mos, you know that he definitely tends to show his activist side every once in a while. This is definitely a touching and heartfelt video, it will open a lot of eyes. Make sure you stay tuned for part 2.

Ray Benzino? Who?

Posted in Audio, Downloads, Media, Video with tags , , , , , , , on Monday, September 7, 2009 by Tim Althaus

You may be asking yourself that exact question. Who the fuck is Ray Benzino? Well if you were wondering, Ray Benzino is the man behind The Source Magazine, and he’s no doubt a dumbass. In this video he talks about the new Jay-Z cover (hating on it), why Slaughterhouse is overrated (Really?), he also says “Fuck Royce Da 5’9”. Apparently Benzino wanted to order a coffin for himself, because I dont think anyone should be fronting on the Slaughterhouse Machine, especially a dude that doesn’t make good music. Ray ended up taking it one step further and releasing an Eminem & Slaughterhouse diss track called “Good Fellaz”. Now, I don’t know about you guys but… I think that if either of these two respond to Benzino, shit is gonna be crazy as fuck. Follow me after the jump to download “Good Fellaz”. Continue reading →

Jay-Z Says a Few Words in Rememberance of DJ AM

On a separate note, why the fuck do the good have to die young? Here is a video of Hov saying some kind words and remembers rocking the stage with DJ AM who, if you didn’t know, passed away this last weekend. It’s a damn shame that the lord decides to take people that have monumental impacts on others, especially when they are young.

Q-Tip Speaks on Kamaal The Abstract Becoming a Reality

Posted in Media, Video with tags , , , , on Wednesday, September 2, 2009 by Tim Althaus

Vodpod videos no longer available.

All of you hardcore heads out there know that Q-Tip had a project that was tragically shelved called Kamaal the Abstract. Thanks to the good lord the project will see the light of day on September 15th. I can’t tell you how personally ecstatic I am. All of Tip’s music is classic (solo & Tribe), and I have a feeling that this album is going to be no different. Watch the video above as Q-Tip walks Sway through the original situation with Clive Davis.
