Yep. The party was as advertised: pure insanity and elegant debauchery. Mano rang in his (?) birthday in style with some of Chicago’s finest. If you missed it, spend a little time watching this Mike Carson-directed clip and be there next year.

Video: Skooda Chose – Ridiculous
This shit is ridiculous. In the final installment of Skooda’s music visual (“Blackout” & “Chicagorilla” here) series with Anton Genius, the Chosen One rips into No ID & Kanye’s ridiculous instrumental from Diddy’s Last Train To Paris. Who’s messing with Skooda? Below the hop is the Ustream session where Skooda spits this one live and off…
Video: Lid Law – Telephony
Video directed by Jim Quattroki. Track produced by the Produktionix This video definitely had me cheesing most of the way through. The Jrunk Unk discusses the always (never) fun topic of your chick going through your phone. I think all men have had a similar experience at least once in their lives. You can put…
Video: Common “Jordan Classic 2010” Freestyle
Now 100% Lollipop free! Saturday, Com Sense was in NYC for the Jordan Classic at MSG, and kicked a freestyle at center court for the spectators. Of course he shouts out Chicago’s favorite pair of sneakers. I could’ve done without the crowd shots of the cameraman’s homies, though. via Rap Radar
Video: ADaD + Rita J Working on an Exile Beat
Live from the Soul Shack, ADaD and Rita J work on writing to a new Exile beat, that will be featured on ADaD’s upcoming project with the West Coast producer. ADaD also has a project in the works with Wajeed, which I’m told will be dropping first. Should be an interesting year for AD.
Video: Yea Big + Kid Static – Heavy Catamaran
This video is ridiculous. These two never disappoint and consistently bring new, clever and original content. Relax and take notes. Directed, edited and shot by Martin Rodahl. In an age when every and anyone can make a video when and where they please, this really took some time and effort. Previously: Yea Big + Kid…
Video: Wicked Prince – Jappin
You may know him as DJ Navarris, but you can now call him Wicked Prince.
Video: Freddie Gibbs, Pill & Jay Rock Talk Jae Millz
MTV and DJ Envy catch up with three of the Freshmen 10 backstage at their show in NYC. Of course the question of the night: “What are your thoughts on Jae Millz’ comments?” Talk about a statement having legs. Millz sure is getting a lot of press out of this one.
Video: Skooda Chose – Blackout
Skooda slept all winter to wake up and spit summers. Part two of his music visual clips, directed by Anton Genius. I’m Dacing coming soon. History Lesson
Video: GLC – Black 44
GLC the Knockout Video King is back with another clip. GL directed this one himself, with Arlo handling the camera work, and O-Zone producing the track. This joint was one of the standout cuts (in my opinion) of GLC’s most recent mixtape Respect My Come Up Vol. 1: Pimp Dilemmas. You can purchase “Black 44” on iTunes…
