Ice Cube Talks About ‘Big3’ Season 2 & Passing His White House Invitation To Partner Michael Rapaport (Video)
For some reason, EVERY time I see Ice Cube I hear MC Serch rap, “Would use the F-word, but Ice Cube got the copyright…”
Well, though I’m sure Cube will still drop an F-bomb, he just doesn’t seem like that dude to me anymore. And that’s a good thing, because he’s so much more to the community: emcee, actor, producer/director/filmmaker, entrepreneur, and Big3 founder!

I’m slipping though. Didn’t know that Big3 season 2 was already here. As an emcee we all admire would say of that, “Once again it’s on!”

Freeway Speaks On The Struggle, On And Off The Mic (Video)
Ever since hearing that “Fear Of A Free Planet†single “Wasted†though… when he proclaimed that he was ‘on the list’ and ‘that kidney on the way’… I root even more for Philly Freezer. And I lean in for everything he is putting out out here. Facts.
That good word of goodwill might not ever get back to brother Free, but that’s my full disclosure and you can tell him I said it. Get back to full power soon, Freeway. Good interview.

Jay Rock Is Honored That His “Redemption” Album Is Being Mentioned Among The Greats (Video)
Great interview with Top Dawg Entertainment’s first signed artist. Rock seems like the soldier that he claims to be. TDE is an army, and with the successes of labelmates (like SZA and Kendrick Lamar), he rightly feels like he is on the winning side. Hear him talk music and much more above.

NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert Series Presents: Khalid (Video)
Can’t help but love the music. Can’t help but root for the singer. Well, here he is with an NPR Tiny Desk Concert. Khalid is here (above), so wait no longer… click that play button and reward your soul with music from a young spirit.
Khalid’s music narrates life’s awkwardly necessary moments: the butterflies of young love, the angst of craving freedom, the apprehension of teetering on that next step in life. He creates honest, comforting pop for teens and young adults that speaks to the kid in all of us. Accompanied only by acoustic guitarist Jef Villaluna, the 20-year-old sensation captured this fleeting fearlessness of youth and brought it to the Tiny Desk for a heartfelt serenade session. The way his voice glided calmly over the guitar notes, switching between baritone and tenor, was fitting given that he sings about teenage peaks and pitfalls. Khalid’s sense of wide-eyed yet humble wonder permeates through the entire set.

Marlon Wayans Draws On His Life For The Truth, The ‘Funny’ And Speaks On His Realness In Family Relationships (Video)
The dude behind Envy was already laughing right at the start of this clip. Buckle up for funny! Without fail, I always think back to when Keenan, Damon, and Shawn Wayans were on BET’s Teen Summit back, back in the day, saying y’all think we are funny… You haven’t seen funny… just amping how crazy Marlon (a bit too young for TV at the time) is. And they were right. He’s matured since, and added some ‘tone’ to his funniness, but still hilarious…

It is DEFINITELY hard to not call dude Eddie Winslow… but I will show proper respect to the brother. And I have low-key wondered if he would ever step back out into the public after going through his Karrine Steffans drama (Google it, not going back through it here). Welp, here he go. No need to wonder anymore.

NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert Series Presents: Daniel Caesar (Video)
Maaan! Good soulful music and performance to get you going, keep you going, or enjoy the day’s end when you’ve been going all day. Daniel Caesar and the band got you on NPR with the Tiny Desk Concert on this ep.
Daniel Caesar and his band had a clear vision for their Tiny Desk performance. While already confined to a small space, they opted to congregate at the piano, where producer and music director Matthew Burnett sat to create what feels like a fly-on-the-wall moment. We’re presented a purity that’s nearly impossible to capture on an album.

Black Thought Says “You Can’t Be Top 5 If You Don’t Write” (Video)
How effortlessly does Tariq move from topic to topic to freestyle on air? A natural!
Black Thought passed through following the release of his latest project Streams Of Thought, Vol. 1.
He spoke about the rap beef, whether he really dissed Diddy and Biggie back in the day, Kanye West, how he prepares for his freestyles, and even spits a new one for Ebro In The Morning.
