Large Professor Compares Nas vs. Jay-Z Diss Tracks From Back In The Day (Video)
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.

Dawn Richard – “sauce” (Prod. By Cole M.G.N. x Hudson Mohawke) [Video] (NSFW)
Oh my damn! Dawn Richard has undergone another full transformation into a “new breed” on us. I would say this video is sexy AF but that just doesn’t do it justice. So hot I am SWEATING! The concepts and the lyrics alone would get a Not Safe For Work rating, but then add the may-as-well-be-naked visuals and wowzerrrrs!
Don’t watch this “sauce” video at your desk. You have been warned.
Check out the Editor’s Note from iTunes on Dawn’s latest album after the jump… after you watch this a couple of times!

Marvel’s “The Defenders” Launches Globally On August 18, 2017 (Trailer)
Alright, so I am finally caught up on all my backlog of “Arrow” episodes (didn’t get into it until Season 3, shout to the homie SuperKing for recommending it). Thank you Netflix! Caught up on DC watching for now. But I have SOOOOO much Marvel binge watching – Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, AND Iron Fist – to do before Marvel’s The Defenders comes out. Netflix, no chill!
Blind ninja. Smart-ass detective. Bulletproof ex-con. Kung Fu billionaire. Marvel’s The Defenders centers on four outsider heroes that have to put aside their personal issues and come together when a villainous sect threatens to destroy New York City as we know it. The Netflix original series launches globally on August 18, 2017.

Justin Freeman – “No Chill” (Video)
In a word… geeeeeeYOTdaaaaam!! Y’all can go grab a copy of “No Chill” off iTunes (link below) whenever you want, and this vid might make you do just that! Justin Freeman showed up in my Facebook feed and destroyed my rap world. But that’s what I’d expect of a ‘future rapgod’ (his words, but I will cosign on the pedigree line).
I liked Justin’s page on Facebook, and followed on YouTube… immediately. And I’m still late. Mad at myself for sleeping on this brother. Taking from the movie “Taken” I gotta say to you, Justin:
I now know who you are. I now know what you want.
If you’re looking for a deal son, I can tell you I don’t have money.
But what you do have is a very particular set of skills.
Skills you have acquired and will grow over a very long career.
Skills that make you a nightmare for people who can’t do it like you.
If you let this Hip-Hop go now, that will be the end of it.
Folks will not check for you, the industry will not pursue you.
But I hope you don’t because I will keep checking for you.
I will find you… and I will dap you up!
Respect. You have done Hip-Hop proud. And you have not failed this city!

Marcus Garvey Inspired MLK & Mandela; Today His Son Is Asking President Obama To Pardon Him (Video)
“Today we look at another request for a presidential pardon, this one from the family of Marcus Garvey, a pioneering figure in the Black Freedom struggle in the early 20th century who inspired generations of civil rights activists around the world. In the 1920s, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover targeted Garvey for his political activity as a leader of the Pan-African movement. Garvey was convicted in 1923 on a charge of mail fraud and sentenced to five years in jail. His charges and conviction effectively ended Garvey’s political movement and eventually led to his deportation back to Jamaica. We speak to Marcus Garvey’s son, Dr. Julius Garvey, who is leading the Justice4Garvey effort.”

The Step Team Building an Unbeatable Legacy (Mini-Documentary)
Wow. The brother said he and his team destroy their bodies preparing for a show they’ve won 11 years running! Wow…Â No let up, no chill! You can see why this is part of ‘The Greatest Homecoming On Earth.’ And you can see the rest of the ‘Great Big Story’ above.
The art of stepping—choreographed stomping and clapping—has been practiced by historically Black fraternities and sororities for decades. It’s a performance of skill and precision. And every year at North Carolina A&T’s “Greatest Homecoming On Earth,†Greek organizations hit the stage to compete for a coveted title. The brothers of Phi Beta Sigma have won the step show 11 years in a row. This year, as pressure to maintain their legacy mounts, step master Byron Hannah tries to lead his brothers to another victory.

Comedy: K.I.T.T. Throwing Shots (And Fashion Tips) On ‘Knight Rider 2016’ [Video]
Bwahahaaaaa! This spoof is a killer! That knockoff music though.
Michael Knight and his talking car KITT fight for justice. With special guest stars Troy Duffy and Sean Patrick Flanery.
Sam Macaroni. The name is funny enough. And this “Knight Rider 2016” has just enough ‘cheese’ in it to make this violent comedy go down (see what we did there?). Now, shut up and watch…and have another Zima, Michael!
Definition Of A Down A** Chick: Miko Grimes (Video)
Full disclosure: I really did not know who Miko Grimes was. Not important. Her eventual husband did, and while we might infer that things weren’t always heavenly, hearing her talk about how she rides for him… man… intense! Might even say HOT. Something very ’90s Hip-Hop about this Gangsta Chick. Gotta admit that I like it. Even though I know she’s a handful.
Okay, two handfuls (wink). Do you SEEEEE that top? Fitting her where she’s so gifted. Wowzers!
Suffice it to say, Miko Grimes is the business. But she is well-informed and about her business, so you really gotta hope her man (husband, Brent Grimes, pro ball player) stays on point. Miko’s outspoken on some of everything: from the treatment of NFL players, shutting down groupies and hangers-on, and much more (as shown in the sit-down vid above).
Regarding career ups & downs for her former Falcon, then former Dolphin, hubby Brent, Miko gives her side of those goings down, too. Again I say WOW. Of course, I know Miko would absolutely DESTROY me (I’d fall too hard and stay down). But ohhhh, what a way to go!

BoneBreaker Jones – “Say What You Gotta Say” feat. Sam Peezy
YES! Now BoneBreaker Jones is coming with the RAW like he s’posed to!! That “Revenge Of The Nerds” is gonna be SICK!! We got a taste of what dude could do on the “Livin Proof” post. Now, take a listen to the latest, “Say What You Gotta Say” (the first single off the album inspired by and named after the ’80s movie and soundtrack). Sam Peezy produced the beat for the track (and whole album).
I been out here; part of the masses that have something to say but are rarely listened to. A weirdo. So what. I’m a nerd. I’m proud of it. Just like in #RevengeOfTheNerds from the ’80s. But I will not give up trying to free my speech. Eventually they gotta hear me! And I hope you enjoy hearing “Say What You Gotta Say.”

Deadpool (Trailer)
This is IT! Marvel has given Ryan Reynolds a couple of at-bats. Remember him as Hannibal King in Blade Trinity, and he has already played ‘Deadpool’ in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Now, he gets to do “Deadpool” for real for real! And the trailer is looking damn dope.
Based upon Marvel Comics’ most unconventional anti-hero, DEADPOOL tells the origin story of former Special Forces operative turned mercenary Wade Wilson, who after being subjected to a rogue experiment that leaves him with accelerated healing powers, adopts the alter ego Deadpool. Armed with his new abilities and a dark, twisted sense of humor, Deadpool hunts down the man who nearly destroyed his life.
The funny jabs referring to ‘animated’ and ‘green suit’… Hilarious (and requires that we link that Green Lantern subpar DC movie he was slick-talking about). It’s okay, Ryan. This movie right here looks like it’s going to make up for that plus extra love. Stay Marvel, dude. Stay MARVEL!
(We have to wait until 2016, though? Boooo…)

Cavalier – “Watch And Learn” (Video)
I’m just trying to live. Y’all just die trying…
Did you like that jawn Cavalier had with Raekwon off the “Chief” LP (we posted here)? Sure, you see the smoke in this “Watch And Learn” video (produced by KFB Productions), but play it again for the feel. The kid’s there, lounging with the grown folks fixing the greens, in the midst of the smoke; probably more nothing-wrong-with-the-herb commentary than shock attempt. No smoke ‘n mirrors either way; in your face. Credit director Ruby Flores for that mode of visual delivery.
Hit the jump for some insights on the new-to-our-radar Cavalier. You can follow the following link to get that “Chief” album, too.
