When Did You First Fall In Love With Hip Hop?

Wanna hear it? Hear it go LOLOLOL  

1. early days r kinda foggy but i loved miss jackson, KRS, NWA... yup had to sneak that one (Boyz n the Hood), and LL (Mama said knock u out)... played super mario brothers listenin to it. hahaha  

2. listening to Hot103 Jamz "hot 8 at 8" and "the quiet storm"... catchin a lot of sh*t for it in jr high n HS when alternative was the "in" thing  

3. again my soph yr of HS when ALL EYES ON ME came out... i remember the moment i first heard it in a hotel room in San Diego  

4. Renee by the Lost Boyz and the whole Legal Drug money album  

5. again when i studied in Italy and watched a whole new game of bboy dancin 

6. Kelis' Caught Out There played all over Europe  

7. at my first MJB concert and when her album No More Drama came out i know many ppl including myself felt her  

8. singing Wyclef and Akons songs with my boys in Haiti  

9. when i heard Rakim's voice once again this yr w his joint Holy Are You  

10. today when i heard Jay's Empire State of Mind n it gave me the chills AGAIN thinkin memories of NYC and when one day i will take my son there  

Hip Hop may be one of the best relationships for me bc i continue to fall in love with it all the time :)

When did YOU first fall in love with Hip Hop???

Ghetto Gospel

this is an old one but i'm feelin it today and wanted to share...

BP3 tees by BBC

So if you are a friend of mine on FB or follower on Twitter you saw that i've been on the BP3 album like so many people. My favorite joint is So Ambitious. This coming week BBC is releasing 3 tees with quotes from that song. I just want the first one. Seriously hot... can the boys club make a feminine version please??

So if you'd like to take a listen you can... Pharrell said he was speaking to speakin to kids. And despite a couple bad words and one line that def could've been better, the anger that drives the ambition is what makes it real. Motivation from those who can't or won't see the possibilities.

JAYs new TVspot & VID

The ad is creative reinacting his old album covers

And these ARTISTS are FIERCE

Rakim... the real deal

really really feelin this joint today... THIS is a lyrical genius.

epic track despite - or rather partly as a result of - its jarring blasphemy... some say he's just using clever wordplay. as far as i know Ra is a 5 percenter. it's not christian doctorine, but the history is intriguing. it's too bad a legend like Ra doesn't have a message that i desire to spread. at best the words will spur us on to think and reflect on the deeper meaning. but at the end of the day let's remember there is only one god.
