Tonight my friend and I bought drinks from a guy on the street with Tupac’s face tattooed on the side of his neck. I’ve also seen a stencil painting of Tupac in various places around Rio. It really makes me happy to see things like these because I think about how passionate ‘Pac was about reaching as many people as he could, and it’s amazing to see that in a place where...

DJ Premier: The XXL Icon Interview →
The Gang Starr legacy is forever, period. It will never go away. We’ve been crowned icons. We’ve been crowned legends. From Jam Master Jay to Jay-Z to Rakim to Melle Mel to Marley Marl. Every idol that I’ve wanted to like what we were doing, has called us legends. I’m good. And the music never dies. It’s well-worth your time to read the whole interview.

The last few weeks I’ve been meaning to write a so-called “hater” post about how My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy really disappointed me. I think the collection of those G.O.O.D. Friday songs is by far better than the album. Let me be clear, the album is still better than the majority of the stuff on the radio, but I just had higher expectations, or maybe simply different...

SERIOUSLY?!
peacebestill: eightdayweeks: Distant Relatives didn’t receive one Grammy nomination? You tell me five hip-hop albums better than Distant Relatives that came out within the last year & half and I’ll take you to a 2Pac concert. One day there going to regret not recognizing Africa. Honestly, I wasn’t surprised that “Distant Relatives” was overlooked. The Grammy’s don’t appreciate art, they...
