Angie Martinez Speaks On And Shares Her Lost Interview With 2Pac
Hmm. last time the Interwebs were abuzz with talk of 2Pac and Hot 97 in the same breath was when it was ‘the world’ vs. Funk Flex ranting about the way Pac talked & moved while he was here. Folks pretty much took the view, “Flex, it’s been decades. Let it die.”
But time and again, we see that 2Pac and all things related come up and come back to life (so to speak).

Joe Budden & Cyn Santana Sitting In… With Angie Martinez (Video)
Ahhh, love. Sweet love. With just enough crazy to make for good radio. There’s a grownness about Joe & Cyn’s convo (esp. Joe’s) when they get to the meat of it. You know how a dude thinks he can pull a girl that’s into girls… Well, Budden’s done it. Don’t hate.
He’s my man now…
– Cyn Santana
Still very light-hearted talk overall. I liked watching it. I think you might, too. Peep.

Angie Martinez: Everything You Need To Know (Video)
Consider the beans spilled! Angie Ma got songs with Rozay from back in the day, Big Pun’s cookies in a bag crushed her mind like a building, and so much more, JAMMED into this quick sit-down chat with the on-air NYC Hip-Hop personality.
Having spent the better part of the last three decades on the radio and on the roads, Angie “The Voice of New York” Martinez has a hell of a lot of stories to tell. There are a lot of gems in her new memoir—My Voice, which is packed with previously untold tales about everyone from Tupac to Wendy Williams to Rihanna and is out now—but, figuring there is still more to mine, we asked her to come into The FADER offices to film an episode of Everything You Need To Know. In the video above, Martinez talks about the beat Biggie stole from her, high times at The Tunnel, and a crazy sounding Rick Ross collab that’s locked away in her vaults. Check it out.

It’s been pretty good year for Nas musically & 2013 is starting just as good. Nas has been nominated for 4 Grammy Awards (18 over his entire career), CNN made a case for Nas being the best hip hop lyricist ever, & things in his life appear to be making a turn for the better following public divorce from Kelis. Nas stopped by the Angie Martinez show on Hot97 in New York for her birthday & gifted her with a very good interview in which he speaks upon the Grammy noms, CNN’s accolades, mending his friendship with his ex-wife, & how everything that’s happened has motivated him musically.
