I remember doing an interview with Cory Gunz about two years ago (or was it three?), and he said both a DJ Green Lantern AND Gangsta Grillz mixtape was on the way.

 
I had this scheduled for Friday, but something priority came up. But yes. Remy Ma is still in jail. And she is still making songs to remind people that she still exists.

There are many reasons why the post-Big Pun Terror Squad will never prosper. And all the frontin these TS affiliates do is one of them. And one of the other obvious reasons: Pun is dead.

F*ck what Fat Joe said about 50 Cent. At this point, anyone having to do with G-Unit is so irrelevant right now that the only one who can make them important again is Jimmy Iovine's embargo lift.

This is for Fat Joe, who has to sneak into The Bronx with a camera to prove himself, and pretend that n*ggas knew he was there.

BX stand up. Joell Ortiz is back... like cooked crack.

When I got the memo that original Bronx beat boxer Doug E. Fresh was helping to push a rap group with his sons, I just shook my head. But this video dispels any preconceived thoughts of "corniness."

First and foremost, Interscope artists aren't doing sh*t anyways. But according to  Funk Dick Rider Master Flex, Hot 97 is boycotting any music coming from Interscope. Which means Eminem gets no airplay. Dr. Dre gets no airplay-- if he ever drops his album.

Make that nearly a year and a half. Man, this song dropped winter of 2008. Explanation? I have none. But check the video below.

I knew that Jimi Hendrix sh*t was too good to be true. I knew it. Because at the end of the day, Fat Joe always resorts back to square one: the Dirty South.

What in the stick-a-fork-in the-South-Bronx is going on?

"NEW YORK CITY?????????!"

KRS-ONE has been around for a long time. So long, that the side of a Bronx building on 163 and 3rd Ave that had his name on it has since been knocked down and replaced with windows. It's been over 20 years, and KRS is still around. For many it's hard to believe that he wasn't always by himself. He wasn't.

On February 7, 2000, we lost one of Bronx's Finest: Big Pun. And since then, there hasn't been a single rapper from New York City's upper-most borough who could establish the same amount of success-- "physically, lyrically, hypothetically, realistically."
