Big up to Real Emcess of the Underground doing what they feel in their hearts and staying away from the corporate machine.

When asked if him and Nas could work together in the future, Rakim responds that through the Marley camp maybe him and Nas will do a song together. Lastly he says that if he were to do a song about one person like Nas did of him, Rakim would do it on Muhammad Ali.

NEED I SAY ANYTHING ELSE?

Trayvon Martin (17yrs old) - Killed By George Zimmerman


It is clear from all those who said they either HEARD or WITNESSED PARTS of what happened and from the 911 tapes that 17year old Trayvon Martin was being stalked/followed by an overweight male in his late 20's named George Zimmerman. Everyone can clearly hear Trayvon's final screams for help while he struggles on the ground with Zimmerman. It seems he did whatever he could to release himself from Zimmerman's overbearing grasp but Zimmerman was obviously angry & frustrated that Trayvon resisted, so he shot him dead. The SANFORD, Fla. police simply asked Zimmerman what happened and Zimmerman said he killed Trayvon in self-defense and the police let him go back inside his home without charging him with anything. Zimmerman killed because he wanted to. Zimmerman stalked, attacked and then he killed Trayvon. We can hear him admit to the stalking and chasing Trayvon on one of the 911 calls he made moments before he KILLED a young man that didn't deserve to die. Racism will never end in this world if the LAW continues to let EVIL RACIST PEOPLE GET AWAY WITH CRIMES LIKE THIS. What's even more sad is the Racist Police Officers that tried for weeks to just close this case under the "self-defense" excuse. Why do you think they held the 911 tapes for a few weeks & dismissed what all the witnesses told him. The 911 Tapes and all the witnesses proved this was pure Racism, unresolved anger issues, murder and an attempt to COVER IT ALL UP by the Florida Police.

George's FATHER Robert Zimmerman wrote a one page letter to the Orlando Sentinel and in the letter he states that his son is HISPANIC but he grew up in a multi-racial home.

T'yanna Wallace (Notorious B.I.G. daughter) - First Ever Interview


For the first time in history a interview with B.I.G.'s daughter T'yanna Wallace. Wow...she was just 3 years old when Biggie was killed what ashame it had to be that way. I'm just glad she was able to benefit from Biggie's success, she seems to be a well rounded young woman. Even if Biggie didn't make sure his children were going to be financially set, P.Diddy should have covered the bill because his career wouldn't have gone anywhere with out The Notorious B.I.G....R.I.P. In fact P.Diddy should make sure that Biggie's grand children are straight too...lol Just my opinion...

The Notorious B.I.G. - 15 Year Tribute


Thisis50 invaded Club Rebel for the 15th Year Memorial Celebration of Notorious B.I.G.
Black Rob, Fred The Godson & DJ Ted Smooth all pay their respect to Biggie Smalls. Honestly if BIG was still alive a lot of rappers would not have been able to get in the game. It would have been different Jay-Z might not have had the success he has now he wouldn't have been as relevant. Think about it...

To Have Sex Or Not To Have Sex ?

I know it's ridiculous to disassociate sex between a man and a woman, it's part of our human nature to be carnal and lustful. The reality is when a foundation has not been established sex becomes just an act of temporal pleasures leaving the soul in an emptier state it was before the act. To those looking for a good time and care for the act alone will go unphased, and will disagree but after many encounters and after time the realization of being alone catches up to an empty state of loneliness. To those looking for love and the idealism of love and those who give in to the act without knowing the person just because the idea of, "He/She could be the one" is formed in the mind. The trip back home after all has been said and done is a lonely trip back, because it now has hit the stage of awkward. I mean who want's to call someone back when they know your body composition better than the inner composition? To those married looking for the sexual act to fulfill what lacks at home, the truth is that no matter how you slice it, there is an emptiness missing you try to fulfill which still remains in emptiness. As when the pleasures are fulfilled and you go back, you return to the same emptiness. There are gazillions reasons why men and woman do the do, but sex with out meaning is just lonely sex in the end. It may fulfill a temporal need or desire, but the most important need goes unfazed and that is fulfillment of the soul. Humanity will continue to have random sexual encounters, spreading illnesses, deceases, unplanned children, unwanted children, and after it's all been done and said. Sex with out a foundation it's just an empty state of loneliness. Think about this before you open your legs or push it in, because the sad truth is that no matter how you slice it someone has taken advantage of you to fulfill an empty desire of their lonely state. Experience is that best teacher and I've learned the hard way ...peace Fam..

Cassidy - Homeless Dude shows off his Skills


This guy has some skills imagine how many other people out there with potential that never get a chance to benefit from their natural given talent. This is why family is very important in our communities. Individuals like this never usually find their way because of dysfunctional families growing up without a father living in poor conditions. I hope this guy turns his life around big up to Cassidy for giving him the opportunity to be heard. Do you have a family member with unused potential?

BIG K.R.I.T. - Hometown Hero (Video)


Had to show some love for this kat man he breaks all the stereotypes for rappers/producers from the south. I'm definitely sold on BIG K.R.I.T., besides him and K-Rino there are not too many conscience rappers that I know from the south. Mainly because the media and the corporations don't sponsor them because we don't support conscience HipHop as a whole. Do you know of any other conscience rapper?

Action Bronson - Blue Chips Live


Blue Chips is an off the cuff, spontaneous project that started as a vibe session one winter afternoon and spiraled into a 17 song dusted journey through the warped comedic minds of Action Bronson and the prodigy producer/artist known simply as Party Supplies.

This journey includes appearances by Roc Marci, Meyhem Lauren and Das Racist and was recorded in the confines of Party Supplies Williamsburg chalet. It's a project as opposed to a mixtape or an album and sits in a nether world somewhere between the two.

Most of all it's a moment in time made in a 3 week period of hanging out at Party Supplies house. In between cheese plates, snaps and spliffs the 2 artists came up with this testament of creativity and spontaneity. This is HipHop man its true real artist always get paid less and have less notoriety. But the respect they get in the streets last for years to come.
