You know one of the best things about my job is my ability to truly have an influence on hip-hop culture, events and artists. While some of you are still unreceptive to the notion that bloggers, particularly SOHH Gyant, has some juice on the internet, that doesnt change the fact that its happening. I can big up or eff up your whole day with a few simple keystrokes. However, I often times use the SOHH platform to put you on to new music and artists who I feel are worthy. I'm on such a musical high with Akon's Rock City that I just got to put you on to their BET "Rap City" performance. Them dudes killed it on the mic. Check it out below.

I'm sure it's no secret that Nelly is in Atlanta putting the finishing touches on his new album called Brass Knuckles. But he stepped out of the studio recently to once again discuss his "Tip Drill" controversy and it seems that he's still pissing off the females as he refuses to accept accountability. Check it out below.

Every once in a while I get the opportunity to witness truly amazing talents. The chance doesn't come around too often, but when it does I recognize it and embrace it. While nobody can deny that hip-hop is dying a slow death, these classically trained violinists, known as simply, Black Violin are thriving. In a time where everybody is doing the same damn thing these guys are showing everyone that there is still room left for innovation in the genre of hip-hop.

Yesterday I told you all about Nelly performing to a sold out crow at Atlanta's legendary concert hall the Tabernacle. Well I bailed out early and apparently missed a historic moment when Goodie Mob rejoined to give a stellar performance. Though I missed the live version music mogul [or at least let's hope] Jermaine Dupri scored some video and is sharing with us all. Check it out below.

He's been flying around the country laying down tracks with a few choice producers that I won't mention [you know I got to keep you guessing]. But check out this funny video of Asher teaching Don Cannon and his crew about the power of the beer bong.

This past weekend T.I., Greg Street and the Grand Hustle's K.I.N.G. foundation transformed the popular 'hood' club, Crucial into 'Crucial Carnival'.

You already know I was in the building. Check out some pictures and video I scored below.

This past weekend I ran a post on Jermaine Dupri's new artist Dondria Nicole AKA Phatfffat. I questioned whether or not he had somebody worth listening to or just another nameless singer who was going to fall by the wasteside. Well almost instantly after that post went up I was contacted by the music mogul himself requesting for me to come to his private studio so that he could set me straight on who this Dondria chick really is. Check out JD and my sit down after the jump.

Asher Roth continues to get the whole industry's attention. Three months ago alot of people didn't know who this kat was. But, fast forward to today and now he's breaking bread with the likes of Ludacris and Chaka Zulu. Whether you think Asher can rap or not, at this point is irrelevant, because the young MC is generating all kind of buzz and he hasn't even dropped his first album.
Check out the video below of Ludacris and Asher Rother discussing business over dinner.

After months of all the Young Jeezy fans inquiring about the video for "Put On" it's finally seeing the light of day. I believe I was the first, and probably the only blogger to express my displeasure for the track initially.
Now I fux with it, but I'm not sure if it's because I actually like it or if it's because I hear it played everywhere. Check it out below and tell me, is it poppin or floppin.

BET’s Hip-Hop vs. America II ‘Where Did The Love Go’ aired last night. Panelists from all corners of the media touched on the much heated topic of how black women are portrayed in the media. David Banner, Michael Eric Dyson, Esther Armah, Allison Samuels, Lola Ogunnaike Ali Le Roi and others all got down to address their individual takes on a wide range of topics. One segment that caught my attention in particular was the discussion on the demoralization and exploitation of African American females in today’s society.
Last night Young Joc unveiled his new group that he’s pushing called Hot Stylz on the BET Awards Preshow. The guys came out to amp the crowd up, but for those of you who may have missed it I got the video below courtesy of worldstarhiphop.com.
Check it out and tell me if they knocked it out of the park or if they missed the mark.
