CNN: Anderson Cooper Interviews Donald Sterling (Full Video)
May 16, 2014
Anderson Cooper interviews [embattled exposed racist ranter and former L.A. Clippers owner] Donald Sterling for AC360 on CNN. This is the full interview (commercials included), with Sterling pretty much given free reign for a full hour. That is to say, in this no-subject-off-limits talk, Sterling has every opportunity to exonerate himself in the court of public opinion. Do you think he cleared himself or dug a deeper grave? Watch and decide for yourself.
(Stick around for the whole segment. Real reality TV with some unthinkable twists!)
Shouts to @Jose3030

Planet Asia- “Golden State” (Video)
February 6, 2012
I am going to go out on a limb and say Planet Asia’s upcoming album Black Belt Theatre is going to be the album of the year(remember I said it). He has been consistently dropping quality songs with creative concepts and images for the past few years now without much recognition. However, I think the stars are aligned for P. A Medallions to start getting his due as a top notch artist that he deserves.The first single “Golden State” has that “Black Dynamite”, “The Mack”, right on soul brother #1 feel to it with some throwback style visuals. If the Fresno, Cali emcee ain’t on your radar you need to put him there……

D’Angelo Performs First Live Show in 11 Years (Video)
January 27, 2012
The soulful voice behind classic albums Brown Sugar and Voodoo seems to be finally back after an 11 year hiatus. Even though D’Angelo’s absence had much more to do with personal troubles than lack of musical inspiration,it looks like the good brother is back on the right track. He was spotted at Filadelfiakyrkan in Stockholm, Sweden performing new joints along with classic joints like “Chicken Grease” and “Shit, Damn, Motherfucker” to a lively crowd, with the energy and passion that we grown accustomed to from D’Angelo. I also see the homie Kendra Foster doing her thing signing background!! No word on an album just yet, but things are looking up. We need you D!!!

New Joint: Co-Op – ‘Rap Money’ (Video)
June 13, 2011
Check out this pretty dope joint from husband(The Rapture) and wife(Money Stax) duo Co-Op. Once you get over the fact that this is not a corny husband/wife gimmick or publicity stunt, you realize that this is actually a pretty dope idea, being that both are serious emcee’s and they both are pretty vicious on the mic. Reppin Dallas and New Jersey respectively, be on the look out for more from this talented group.
