I always love it when an artist can appreciate Nardwaur’s exceptional researching skills. Flocka geeks out over some of the gifts given to him by the human serviette and as a result makes Nardwuar an honorary member of the Brick Squad.

Off E-40 & Too $hort’s collaborative effort History: Function & Mob Music, which just dropped today.

Saigon returns to his roots in the latest video from his new album, The Greatest Story Never Told 2: Bread And Circuses.  ”Blown Away” is a pretty hot track in my opinion, but how will Bread And Circuses stack up to Sai’s debut?  We’ll have to find out tomorrow when the album hits stores.

Hopsin, Jarren Benton, Dizzy Wright and SwizZz take it back to the essence in this cypher.  The Funk Volume team goes in over the classic LOX posse cut “None Of Y’all Better” produced by the one and only DJ Premier. (more…)

Freeway and Just Blaze reuniting?  I like the sound of that.  I’m also liking the sound of Free’s latest single “Jungle.”  Diamond In The Ruff hits stores November 27th.

Snoop seems like he’s having a great time in this video.  I really don’t know how I feel about the music, partially because I can’t tell if Snoop’s taking it seriously, but then again, that might not be a bad thing.

In the fourth installment of Trae’s animated cartoon series, the “President of the United States” cops some dogs off of one of Trae’s buddies. Funny stuff.

Hilarious.

In this Pitchfrok animated short, Danny Brown tells a story about how a crackhead he served back in the day once gave him a fake hundo. Funny Stuff.

This doesn’t exactly pertain to hip-hop specifically, but rather all genres of popular music today. Mike Doughty, best known for being the leader of the avant garde alt rock group Soul Coughing, sat down with Fuse music nerd Dan Brown to explain why new artists don’t stand a chance of making a living off of their music.

I had to post this as soon as I peeped it.  Bilal (this Bilal, not the singer) and Dizaster (best known for tearing up Canibus after he choked at KOD) stopped by a local KFC and placed their order in rhymes.  Yeah, this is sort of corny, but at the same time they came with a smooth delivery and some pretty funny lines.  I wonder if this is how Rick Ross rolls through Wingstop.
