Dope video. Is Busta Rhymes getting back to his old wild ways? Only time (an album this summer titled I'm Blessed) can tell. This song is dope though.
In an interview Here you can hear what Busta boy has been up to and what he's thinking about making new music with Q-Tip and why he has resentment about not being in the A Tribe Called Quest group. Interesting!

We always wondered who he would resemble, he looks just like his father yo! Seems like he is getting along just fine with his mother and having a happy upbringing from the pictures.
His father is a legend and we're more than sure he knows that.
Faith doing the mommy thing, props to her! Looking good.

Video: Man Trapped In New York Elevator For 40 Hrs...

N.Y.C x Japanese Cherry Blossom Festival Info...
"Hey for all of you who are up on the Japanese scene and are aware of its influences on American culture and our definite impact on their society such as movies, music, food and especially dope gear, well maybe its time to stop reading through Bape catalogs and random Japanese street wear magazines and sample some of the culture for yourself." -EvilSkwerlz
Journey to the Botanical Gardens next weekend for the City of New York's annual Cherry Blossom Festival: Hanami, for a taste of tradtional Japanese food, music and more! check the Botanical Gardens homepage for further details.

Indeed.
Xzibit Says 'Pimp My Alien'...
We almost fell out of our chair when we opened our email. When the hell could "Mr. X to tha Z" actually act? Let alone act in one of the biggest sci-fi franchises of the mid to late 90's, The X-Files.
Here are some screenshots of the upcoming X-Files movie, X-Files: I Want To Believe, set to hit big screens July 25th 2008. Former Pimp My Ride host Xzibit looks crazy different with a shaved head, suit and tie. Hope he's good at getting the surprise jump on the extraterrestrials as he was with broke people in need of a automotive touch up. Hmmm...
Big props to WooHah!

Mariah Carey Will Slap The SHIT Outta You...
So recently on Good Morning America Mimi had a performance where the syncing was messed up on her single "Touch My Body". At around 0:44 listen to what she tells one of her back up singers who are fucking up...Doesn't miss a beat either! True G'ness.
You KNOW how much of a diva this woman is...we wouldn't be surprised if everyone got a mean ass kicking then firing. SMH.
Lego Pays Homage...
Lego pays homage to the famous picture 'Lunch Atop A Skyscraper' by Charles Ebbets from 1932. Kinda dope, Someone should tell lego to recreate MJ's 'Last Shot'. That would be piff. What do you guys want to see?!

Carrera Lu Interview On The Morning Show...
On the World Famous Morning Show Lupe answers questions about the Terry Kennedy beef and why it didn't phase him as much. Wonder what goes on behind the scenes at all those tours he goes on? He says that it is a "stunt" fest, and it's constantly a showoff battle.
Wasalu also tells us about his passion for the grind to manage his label, 1st & 15th and why he isn't starstruck as much coming from hanging with Jay-Z when Lupe didn't have much. Good interview.

New song from Jay and Mimi titled "Bye Bye". Jay and his newly married-off aura made it into the booth and laid down a pretty good verse. Wonder how the newlywed life is going for him and B?
Kanye And Lexis Split...
So it seems that Kanye West and on again/off again beau Alexis Phifer are officially split.
" Phifer confirmed to People magazine that the engagement was off. “It’s always sad when things like this end and we remain friends.” But that wasn’t it. She went on. “I wish him the best in his future and all of his endeavors.” ...“He’s one of the most talented people I’ve ever met.” "
Well, there you have it folks. "Couldn't afford a car so she named her daughter Alexis" (- All Falls Down). Now Kanye is named "Bachelor". Stay up Kanye, you'll be alright homie. On another note, we wonder what made her come forward to the press as this was no doubtedly a breakup unprovoked by the media. Hmmm, what is she trying to promote? Magnifying glasses out...

As opposed to suggestions of being a clean New Yorker, P shows/tells us what he will do once his baby momma brings him cocaine and a gun inside of a cheerios and frosted flakes box, respectively...
The production is pretty gully.
Curtis & Co. Head To Australia...
50 speaks while aboard the plane headed to the "Land Down Unda". Banks on the other hand shows us what a great mathematician and navigator he is. It's the Unit.
Nike Air Jordan Commercial - "Maybe It's My Fault"...
The latest commercial advertisement that is being broadcast on television right now from the company that manages to take money out of the youths pockets some way or another every month like a landlord...
MJ starts the commercial off by saying "Maybe it's my fault", alluding to maybe it is his fault that the standards are so high on the average aspiring NBA prospect. He then takes you on a mental journey stating that he did indeed eat, sleep and breathe the game of basketball as shown from what is supposed to be his college dormroom and childhood home to the awards and statues that are erected in the city of chicago in his honor.
Very inspirational 1:01's of real talk from the best to ever do it. Abstract indeed.
Foxy Finds God After Being Released...
Inga Marchand a.k.a Rapper Foxy Brown was recently released from a jail sentenced she was given because of a few missteps she had with the law. In a photo that recently hit YBF, Foxy can be seen kneeling down in prayer before some sort of alter. Now, we don't know if this is just to help her image and bring her back into the spotlight as a "reformed" artist, or if she was really looking to god for a "moment of clarity" word to her one time boo Jigga.
Heres a clip of her release:

Usher Standing Tall...
Here is the cover for Usher's latest effort titled Here I Stand. His single "Love In This Club" has been getting heavy rotation and is pretty dope to say the least. Hope he does some good numbers, won't be as good as Confessions we bet, but the fans still love them some U-S-H-E-R R-A-Y-M-O-N-D.
