December 17, 2014
Momma said, “My son never been no trouble…”
– Lupe Fiasco
Complex rhyming, rhythms, and rap epitomize “Madonna.” Not the singer… You better NOT think Lupe would be dropping the a single off his “Tetsuo & Youth” project (due out January 20, 2015) just about a pop star. This is that thoughtful, beautiful Fiasco work. Listen.

Final (Part 3) in the HardKnockTV interview series with PRhyme (DJ Premier x Royce da 5’9). Nick Huff Barili getting insight from Royce on life changes he has gone through.
“I felt like there was a dark cloud over my head for a long time. So when I was rapping about death, I was just rhyming about things that were imminent. Stuff that was happening around that time, it was just a dark time for me.”
– Royce da 5’9
Now sober two years, he is grateful for having made it through that period alive and without major jail time. Offering thoughts on where Hip-Hop should be going, Preemo and Royce talk about expectations for the greats.
