XXL 2019 Freshmen Cypher: Blueface x YBN Cordae x Rico Nasty (Video)
September 10, 2019
Wow. The Google/YouTube algorithm game is something serious! I’m watching a fire freestyle video from YBN Cordae and the cypher he did with Blueface and Rico Nasty for XXL comes up.
Now, I have NOT f-d with those particular cyphers for quite some time (and we all know why… that WACK year). But I clicked and watched… and really dug what was going on in the clip.

Big Daddy Kane Live At The V1 Festival In Russia (Video)
September 6, 2019
BIG DADDY KANE!!! In Saint-Petersburg… Florida, right? Nah, son…Russia! This V1 Festival thing looks DOPE, perhaps “the best Hip-Hop event in Russia” for reals!!
The name Big Daddy Kane has become synonymous with the term “poet†in the world of Hip-Hop. Aside from introducing original lyrics to this genre, he also gave innovative live performances which included theatre art, choreography and special costumes. It all has proved that Big Daddy Kane is not only an MC but a full-on music hall artist.
– v1battle
Yep. A BDK show is ALWAYS a good ticket to cop. The G.O.D.M.C. always gives his all for the fans, leaving it all on the floor to righteously represent Hip-Hop… and it don’t stop!

Your fault, your bad, and your problem if you’re ‘offended’ because Tobe and The New Respects are proclaiming and claiming being “Hella Black.” As if one look would not have told you… a listen would have sold you!
