I’ve got four pairs of tix to tomorrow’s De La Soul show at the House of Blues to giveaway.  If you’re unlucky enough to win (Ha!) you can purchase tix to this exclusive 20 year reunion show HERE.  You know the drill.  Send me an email with the Subject: De La Soul Giveaway, and answer…

Every time I see GL he’s got on a brand new pair of Jordan’s, weeks (sometimes months) before they hit retail. WTF? Let me hold something [II]. He’s got more J’s than Jose Hustle has Polo. #Fact

Grant Parks and the Coalmine crew return with another *action packed* and FREE release, just because they feel like it.  The Moment of Clarity was entirely produced by one of the hardest working producers in the Chi, Grant P, and features a whole slew of local and national talent: YP, Phil G, Doctor Who, Reno…

‘Fest dropped two joints on his blog last night that are not going to make the final cut for El Che.  I remember around this time last year, ‘Fest was considering using “Binary Code” for a single.  He had a video in the works and the whole nine.  I guess that plan went the way…

Of course they’re tagged up by MediaFakeOut, but who cares.  I figured some would appreciate.  How excited is the guy below? Hey now! Untagged pics courtesy of Sean The Robot

I believe this is the kick-off for L.E.P. week, but I can’t be certain. Either way, this video is classic. The Kufi-Slapper himself makes an appearance at L.E.P./Infared Music’s studio on South Halsted in Chicago, prior to a show in Madison, Wisconsin. The scene in the store with Count and Jimmy is priceless. Look how…

Here’s the first leak from the Brainiac Society’s in-house magic makers Nez & Rio’s first project Destination: ILL, due out in December. Nez & Rio feat. PS – “Whats It All About (Remix)”

I’m curious to know what MD 20/20’s chaperone duties consist of.  These guys are still signed to Swag Team/Jive Records under Yung Joc, and have put this mixtape together prior to their debut album.  It’s definitely something new, funny and creative that they are bringing to the game.  Not the same old, same old.  Take…

Off their mixtape with Don (The The The The) Cannon, Gone Fishing, LIVE in Madison, WI.  Which would be a bad place to be right now seeing that school is about to start up.  Think about it. Jacked from Midwest Broadcast, who has a full write up of the show.  It’s about the Kids return…

The BAWSE recruits two of the Midwest’s fastest spitters to assist him on the remix of “All I Really Want”.  I know that the beef has long been squashed between Twista and the Bone Thugs camp, but I always wonder how they feel about appearing on tracks, err Remixes, together.  Does tension still exist here?  Friendly…
