By: Konsept Straight from Nah Right is an interview for Pharoahe Monch done by K-Salaam & Beatnik. It's some great stuff if you're an OK fan or a Pharoahe fan.
By: Konsept Recently Talib Kweli did an interview on Sound Session, and here is the footage where he speaks on various things that Talib fans would love to hear
By: Konsept Now I've never heard of Chelsea Lately but I can say, this was a pretty good episode. It features an interview of Big Boi (of OutKast), and it was both funny and interesting.
By: Konsept Here's a behind the scenes look at the Notorious B.I.G. movie. From what I've seen so far, I'm definitely going to see it when it comes to theatres beginning 09'.

By: Konsept On December 16th a new compilation from Ghostface Killa titled GhostDeini the Great will be released. If you purchase the physical copy (as opposed to digital), it will feature bonus video material.
Here is the tracklist: 1. Slept On Tony 2. Run (Remix) (w/ Jadakiss, Lil Wayne, Raekwon & Freeway) 3. Kilo (Remix) (w/ Raekwon & Pusha T) 4. Be Easy (Remix) (w/ Ice Cube) 5. Tony Segal (a.k.a. Barrel Bros.) (w/ Styles P & Beanie Sigel) 6. It's Over 7. Walk Around 8. 9 Milli Bros. (w/ Wu-Tang Clan) 9. Might Healthy 10. Apollo Kids 11. All I Got Is You (w/ Mary J Blige) 12. Cher Chez La Ghost 13. Back Like That (Remix) (w/ Kanye West & Ne-Yo) 14. Street Opera (w/ Sun God) 15. You Know I'm No Good (w/ Amy Winehouse) 16. The Champ (Remix) 17. Ghostface Christmas
In my opinion, "Criminology" and "Verbal Intercourse" should've been no-brainer tracks to include, but I guess not. Either way, it sounds like a good mix of Ghost music.
By: Konsept Not too long ago I was listening to a west coast emcee by the name of Jaw Droppa. His music, which is noticeably underground, is different. He stands alone and is hard to compare to someone else. He clearly has his own style, his own voice, and his own flow to his music. Different opinions may arise from his music, but one thing for sure is that he's unique and brings something more on the new side then something that's been done over and over. Check out his myspace page to make your own judgment.
By: Konsept I'm hoping I won't have to update this information, but Raekwon (of Wu-Tang) stated that his upcoming album Only Built 4 Cuban Links II (sequel to the 1994 classic), will be released March '09. Older news stated that Busta Rhymes would executive produce the album, but that has changed, and now RZA will take part on the album. I'm pretty sure it won't, but I'm hoping it doesn't fail like Immobilarity and The Lex Diamond Story did.
By: Konsept Straight from 88-Key's new album, The Death of Adam, comes a video for the song "True Feelings". This album is out now, but if you're skeptical on the music, this video will give you a taste.
By: Konsept Recently Big Boi (of Outkast), told MTV that not only will his album come out beginning of '09, but Andre 3000's album and another Outkast album will be coming out next year. That's the best news I've heard from the south since Idlewild came out.
By: Konsept On November 25, 2008, author Jaime Lowe, will be releasing Digging for Dirt. Digging for Dirt will be the biography of deceased Wu-Tang member Ol' Dirty Bastard. The 288-page book will contain information given to Jaime by Wu members, Dirty's parents, business manager, friends and fans. It follows his early years up to his death November 13, 2004, 2 days before his 36th birthday.
By: Konsept This is an old XXL event, but I guess the videos didn't actually surface until 2008. Back in 1998, there was a picture taken of the most important emcees, in Harlem. These are the behind the scene clips of what was going on before, during and after the photo was taken.
