B.o.B on the Sony Hip Hop Live Tour

TJ just shot this over and I had to post it.
B.o.B getting some shine on the Sony Hip Hop Live Tour with Talib and David Banner. IF for some reason you haven’t heard any of his tapes, especially tracks where he really features his guitar playing abilities, you need to check this video out.
You need to check this video out regardless.

*Florida also just got a TD and then blocked a FG while I’ve been slacking on this screen

Grandmaster Flash Returns

grandmasterflash…first tape in TWENTY years?! Wow.
Grandmaster Flash is coming out with a DJ CD this year, as just about every major DJ is doing these days. I’m not against Flash getting his shine and his money, I’m just worried anytime a LEGEND comes back out that they won’t be received as warmly as maybe I feel they SHOULD be.
(See: Wu’s 8 Diagrams sales…have they reached 200,000 yet?).

*I was tripping out on Flash’s MySpace. Seems so weird. Legends on MySpace…the world we live in.

I Love “Old” Hip Hop

stickyfingazAs much as I love the new, new cats there was an EXTENDED period of time where I forced myself to learn the beginnings and how hip-hop got to where it is/was (remember, I started getting heavy into Hip Hop with Mase so I had TONS to learn).
Onyx was one of the dopest groups I discovered in my research and recently one of the members, Sticky Fingaz, released this track to us internet-heads.

“I’m too thug, you think I spit Tupac ashes.
I’m too hood to do those little dumbass dances!”
