J.Cole Speaks on Influences & Touring

Gotta respect this dude. One of the best new rappers. Can't wait for new material and the album.

Mr. Hudson & KiD CuDi Make "Everything Is Broken"

One of my favorite joints on the album. Straight No Chaser may be album of the year by the way.

BET Hip-Hop Awards Cypher #3

Hip-Hop at its finest. Must watch. For the record I'll say Mos and Em tied with Black Thought in close second. Subject to change though.

BET Hip-Hop Awards Cypher #2

Nothing really to see/write home about here. Disappointed by Wale's effort (or lack thereof).

BET Hip-Hop Awards Cypher #1

Im sure most know how I feel about this channel, but they did something right. Could have done without Nicki though. No disrespect of course. @mousebudden murked this. Credit Nahright.

David Banner Takes A Stand

Please watch.

Just Blaze Speaks

One of the greatest of all-time right here.

Alicia Keys - Doesn't Mean Anything Video

Nice song and visual I guess even though it gets quite corny at the end...

J. Cole on "A Star Is Born" Part 1

Hopefully he doesn't get the Memphis Bleek treatment. Would be a complete waste of talent.

Goapele - Milk and Honey

This joint is crazy to me. Love this song.

Drake Speaks on Thank Me Later

Talks about how his life is So Far Gone. It will be interesting to see where this record goes.

Mr. Hudson Talks New Album

October 20th people.

Common Enlists Kanye & No I.D. For New Album

"Common is returning to his roots. After linking with The Neptunes for the majority of last year’s dance friendly Universal Mind Control, the Chi-town MC is reuniting with Kanye West and No I.D. for his ninth studio album, The Believer.

During the benefit show for his Common Ground Foundation over the weekend, Com told XXLMag.com that he has already recorded tracks with Kanye and No I.D. for the project, which he expects to hit stores sometime next spring.

Common also said he has been in the studio with beatsmith Twilite Tone, who he hasn’t worked with since One Day It’ll All Make Sense. Like I.D. Twilite also produced a lot of songs on Com’s debut."

Can't wait for this. Sounds right.
