50 Cent & Dj Semtex Interview
50 CENT - THE BEST OF 2009 from DJ SEMTEX on Vimeo.
There is no doubt that 50 Cent is one of the hottest artists of the last decade. Recently, i caught up with him to reflect on the best/worst moments of 2009. We started on the best album, then we kinda got stuck on the ‘beef’ issue, specifically the Jay-z & Beans situation. I really wanted to get into this, but I ran out of time. What do you think is the situation with Fif and Game the same as Beans and Jay-z?

Graffiti tagger sentenced to 8 years in prison
$7300 worth of damage!? Are judges supposed to be that emotional? Hmmm, so this guy goes to jail for as long as some rapists and murderers? Justice will eventually be reigned down on the heads of these hypocritical authorities.
This is crazy and i felt it was worth posting. Its child molestors that get less sentencing than this 18 year old kid. Granted no one wants to come out & see their property tagged, but damn, 8 years! A dope punishment could have been making him paint a mural of some kind or cleaning Graffiti around the city. Damn Texas always been known to give it to ya rough!
Amazon Ships Wayne Album Early
Rebirth Album Amazon Sent Out Early
Amazon has definitely dropped the ball big time by shipping out copies of Lil Wayne’s highly anticipatedRebirth album. Amazon apparently shipped out the Rebirth album to a number of fans months before it was ever supposed to be released. I can only assume that this happened because of all the push-backs and confusion regarding the release date, however this is still unacceptable and its going to be a huge blow to Universal andCash Money.Source LilWayne

Statik Selektah – Ignantwitted Interview
I met Statik Selektah at a Cormega event a while back and he agreed to do an interview a few weeks before he dropped his next project. Well, as fate would have it, I bumped into the DJ/Producer outside of SOB’s a week before the Pre-Game EP’s release date (12/15, that’s tomorrow).The DJ/Producer discusses everything from emo rap to female emcees, then reveals all the collaboration LP’s in the works. If you love this culture, prepare to get excited on some fanboy shit. Undeniably one of the best (and hardest-working) producers of our generation. – Rek
Souls of Mischief talks Hip Hop
SoulCulture caught up with Souls Of Mischief in London last month and the discussion turned to the frequently debated subject of The Greatest emcees Of All Time.
In this mini roundtable discussion, Opio and Phesto discuss the flaws of corporate lists – such as MTV’s – and the variety of factors one should consider when assessing The Greatest Of All Time, and Tajai insists (contrary to Baby’s recent comments, “How can you be the best if you don’t make the most money?”) that innovation is the most important factor. Then he puts it out there – “Name one thing Jay-Z or Lil Wayne brought to Hip Hop that’s new? …They brought nothing new to Hip Hop. Zero.” – before giving his own Top 10 G.O.A.T list.

R Kelly & DJ Skee " Elephants Don't Swat Flies"
Gotta respect the man's musical track record regardless of how you feel about him personally. This interview, Kel's speaking on the lack of respect new artist have these days for vets in the game. My thoughts are that it's not only in the musical game, its in the game of life all together. And that's real talk homey!

Chris Ries a.k.a. Young Chris Hip-Hop Artist / Philadelphia, PA, USA
"Destined for success after hooking up with Jay-Z’s Roc-A-Fella Records at 15 as a member of the duo, Young Gunz, Christopher “Young Chris” Ries saw his chance almost disappear with the dissolution of the label. Unwilling to pass on his own potential and return to the hard Philly streets, Chris is now working on his own to assume his rightful place alongside the rap greats he came into the game with."
This is a dope 7 min documentary about Young Chris. I think I've checked it out about 3 or 4 times already. Good job by the film maker, Eric Swiecinski
50 & Beans
I think this is a perfect fit for Beans! Him rocking with the Unit. They could possibly make some great music together. Beans just have that raw street element within his music that just gives it a refreshing feel in a sense. The rawness, the gutterness, the energy is just crazy. I've always been a fan of Beans music, i just hope he continues to make great music and not get caught up in the media bullshit that tends to get artist into limbo. We lost 2 greats already, no sense in loosing any more! As Big Shug said, let the music play!
Freeway & Beans in the Studio
Man this is why I love Hip Hop! The energy & the hunger.... The Music!
Beanie Drops New Diss 'How I Could Kill Jigga Man'
Now truth be told, i really didn't even want to post this after listening to the track. To me Beans is so much Bigger than what I am hearing in this. I think he needs to just do what he does, and that's paint them word pictures that he spoke on before.
50 Cent At Floyd Mayweather's Big Boy Mansion with Rick Ross' son, Tia and Diddy in Las Vegas
This is had me just shaking my head and laughing seriously. I could see why people would get upset, but Flex said it best, 50 is a different kind of animal. He's proven that over & over again so it shouldn't come to any surprise. Lol In this clip he has Ross babymoms & kids with him out here in Vegas for the fight!
Fornerver the Movie pt 1
