DJ Premier – Black Fist Friday Mix on Hot 97 NYC (2/17/12)
February 17, 2012
I saw massive amounts of people tweeting about DJ Premier rocking on Hot 97 in NYC at noon for their Black Fist Friday series in celebration of Black History month. At the time I wasn’t in a position to listen in live & as a matter of fact I still haven’t gotten around to fully listening to the mix that Questlove did in honor of J Dilla last week, but I’ll get to that eventually this weekend. After a few hours I noticed DJPremierBlog had it up on Primo’s site as well as MissInfo who works at the station. Had to download it & peep it once I had time like now…. I like how DJ Premier started things off with Jeru Tha Damaja’s underground classic “Frustrated N*gga”. Dopeness…

Prodigy Speaks On Saigon, Tupac, Jay-Z, & His Health (Video)
November 24, 2011
In this interview Prodigy details further why I have the utmost respect for Mobb Deep as a group. I get into it sometimes with Jay-Z fans who have a revisionist history about how Mobb Deep represented for the east coast back in the day when many other artists on the east coast were quiet as hell. Especially Jay-Z. In this interview Prodigy speaks on dealing with sickle cell anemia, his altercation with Saigon, beefing with Tupac back in the day & being willing to die for it, & how he felt when Jay-Z tried to fake like he’s always repped for NYC when it was time to do so for their city.
