Crazy Like That Glue: The Craig Mack Story (Documentary)
Heads know that Notorious B.I.G. hit hard in the mid-90s and Bad Boy Records was knocking the competiton out the damn ring! Okay, but heads who really know know that there was another emcee that was right there, that was the first, the premiere artist that was actually supposed to be the Bad Boy standard bearer… the one they call Craig Mack! You remember “Flava In Ya Ear” was the business! But somehow business got eff’d up along the way.
This Craig Mack documentary tells us how, and how “Crazy Like That Glue” things really came to be. You know, heads are probably wondering, “Whatever happened to Craig Mack anyway?”
This doc covers that, too. Fascinating viewing. If you pay close enough attention, you’ll probably be as intrigued by folks who had NOTHING to say in this as you’ll be by what folks appearing in the doc had to say. Go on, settle in, and press play.

Machine Gun Kelly Signs With Diddy’s Bad Boy Records (Video)
I’m not too familiar with Cleveland artist Machine Gun Kelly, but this video that his team Est 19xx sent me was very interesting to watch. In short it follows the come up of a young kid making his way in the world from basically nothing & trying to make his dreams in the music industry come true. I like Machine Gun Kelly’s energy & would like to see & hear more music over time, but honestly I do have some reservations about him signing with Bad Boy records. Hopefully they’ll do right by the kid in the long scheme of things. Machine Gun Kelly is full of wide eyed enthusiasm & that’s always a good thing with new young artists, but I sincerely hope he doesn’t lose that energy & enthusiasm after dealing with all the industry bullsh*t that will eventually come along with all his successes up to this point. Good luck kid….
