0 comments

Hard Knock Tv's Nick Huff Barili caught up with Wiz Khalifa to talk about New Album including working with Snoop and wanting to work with Pharrell, turning down tour with Drake, and more. Video stars off with Wiz showing off his martial arts skills and smoking out in preparation for interview. Once the interview gets going he tells Nick why he thinks Atlantic is going to be a better fit that Warner Bros for him, what Taylor Gang means, how he sees J Cole, Wale and others as his peers, listening to music out side the Hip Hop genre like Angela Bofill and Animal Collective, how he meet Curren$y (Jets), how him and Yelawolf kick it during the tour. Wiz also shares what his next tattoo is going to be.
Taylor Gang or be poor and vote republican!

0 comments

If you didn't know the homies from 2dopeboyz just did an event down in Miami for Co$$, Blu & Sene with Last Rights.  I posted a video recap yesterday.  As far as this clip I'll let Meka explain:

Live and direct from the dopehouse-sponsored edition of The Rising in Miami. Backstory: after Blu was gearing up to finish his set, I ended up looping the opening chords to my favorite song of his. To my surprise, he jumped right into the song, spur of the moment-style. Props to MannyTheThird for dropping off this footage.


GUCCI 3-D GLASSES

0 comments

Really?  $225 if you want them...

The Gucci 3-D glasses contain a high tech multi-layered mirrored coating which allows the wearer to view themselves in a mirror without distortion. The mirrored coating not only provides a premium look as well as offers superior viewing and contrast enhancement, but also allows over 98 percent of visible light through, therefore not affecting viewing in a cinema environment. An anti-reflective coating has been applied to the back of the lens for additional overall image quality by reducing scattered light, glare and blue light.

MARZ LOVEJOY AT CMJ; TALKS the L.A. HIP HOP SCENE (VIDEO)

0 comments

In this piece, Marz sits down to talk about the bubbling L.A. music scene, comparing it to New York in the '90s.  One of a handful of youthful west-coast artists on the come-up, she is at the center of a movement at its boiling point.  She expresses her excitement about the groundswell of support and the crystallization of her efforts right before she rocks the stage at the iHipHop x FrankRadio CMJ 2010 showcase.  Undoubtedly, Marz Lovejoy’s music reflects that she is in fact the total package; brains, beauty, charisma and talent. - iHipHop

Because I enjoy when "street rappers" talk about urban issues besides, "...it's hard out here and I have no other choice but to rap and feed my family".  It might be true but those issues are more complex than I'm from the ghetto and I need to get out.  Peep this, shouts to Pill for this:

Pill, offers his take on public housing in America. Shot in front of a downtown lot that once hosted his childhood housing project, Pill discusses gentrification and its repercussions.
