Leon Muhammad & The Philadelphia Black Mafia (Video)
April 8, 2019
There ain’t no hanging no more. They hang you on the ballot… Racism still exists… Jim Crow still exists… but it’s more “Corporate” Jim Crow.
Gotta listen when the OG’s speak on it! Leon Muhammed is an OG to the Nth degree we need to listen to to be certain. Great interview from an elder, a brother, who can speak on it because he has seen & lived it.
Leon Muhammed came to Philadelphia from Alabama as a young man and joined the Nation of Islam Temple #12. He is a Boxing Hall of Fame inductee and has trained the likes of Tim Witherspoon, Muhammed Ali, and other champions. He was worked with such boxing powers as Bob Arum and Don King. He is also alleged to have been a major “bag-man” for Philadelphia Black Mafia.

Speaking specifically on Black Mafia, all the various gangsters’ moves, and the boxing game up and down!

RIP Nipsey Hussle (Video)
April 1, 2019
I hoped against all hope that it was not true, but CNN and major news and online reporting outlets confirm that Nipsey Hussle died tragically, the result of a shooting near his clothing store, in the area of Crenshaw and Slauson. Born Ermias Davidson Asghedom, he was 33 years old.
Beyond the obvious, what is really saddening is that while Nip lived a lifetime in his short years, he had so much more to live for. He was fresh off a well-deserved Grammy nomination and consistently recognized for his solid body of work in rap, his noteworthy successes in business, and his neighborhood activism in keeping with global thinking and local action. But he was due for more: J. Cole and Drake both shared that they were set to do songs with him and would miss his presence. He was in the final stages of buying up the block [where his business operates] and bringing peace & brotherhood to his hood. And we just posted on the committed relationship and family life he had built with Lauren London on here.
Grammy-nominated rapper Nipsey Hussle died after a shooting in Los Angeles near a clothing store he owned, according to a high-ranking law enforcement official with the Los Angeles Police Department. CNN’s Brooke Baldwin discusses with DJ HeadKrack.

Such a loss for us all. In time, we will heal. But for now, we will mourn. Rest In Peace, Neighborhood Nip.

Large Professor Compares Nas vs. Jay-Z Diss Tracks From Back In The Day (Video)
March 29, 2019
Nas was on his MONSTER back in the day! “Destroy And Rebuild” though… and you just thought “Ether” was mean… that’s just the version you heard! It could have been MUCH, MUCH worse.
In this clip, Large Professor reveals that the original instrumental for “Ether†was produced by Swizz Beatz, and that Nas ultimately censored the record before he decided to release it. From there, he recalls that some of the lyrics he took out had to do with Aaliyah’s plane crash, aimed at both JAY-Z and Dame Dash. Elsewhere, he also mentions that although he holds both records in high regard, he prefers JAY-Z’s “Takeover†on a musical level. With that said, he said he didn’t like “Super Ugly” at all, calling the record trash for its overwhelming disrespect towards Nas’ family.

Cam Newton Off-Season Sacrifices: No Meat And No… (Video)
March 25, 2019
… ‘touching’ his meat. WTF?? All pro QB Newton is on some new ‘ish to regain focus! He was pescatarian before, so maybe giving up meat was not so hard. He could hire a vegan chef. But that ‘no climax’ thing. Why would you give up the one thing a multimillionaire athlete is damn near guaranteed on a near nightly basis?? No thigh-thigh, not even looking at wi-fi, NO sex or nothing in or out of the champagne room. Now, that’s a REAL sacrifice! Talk about ‘March Madness’ (sheeeesh)! Good luck with that, sir.
James asks Cam Newton about his decision to go vegan and the challenges that come along with it, and the conversation turns to the presence of flowers on Cam’s social media, which has to do with Cam going fully celibate for the month of March.
