August 21, 2018
Unique promotion for that ‘Unsolved’ limited series presented by USA Network. And very interesting. She’s a ’90s baby… and she knows her Golden Era. Pretty good M.A #Salute
The Brooklyn rapper has been noted by fans for her sound that’s reminiscent of ‘90s rap, so Genius decided to test her knowledge on the decade with a round of trivia with Hip-Hop icon Redman.
– Genius
Red with the ding-ding-ding-ding gameshow effect is hilarious, too (haha)!

Watch Joe Budden ‘Pull Up’ On T-Pain (Episode 7) [Video]
July 31, 2018
Okay, so Joe Budden has become known for creating the content and moments online, for being at the center of things, that make viewers go ‘wooooow’ right? Think about him almost getting into a three-on-1 (plus their bodyguard) fracas for smooth walking off mid-interview on Migos (e.g. whosaidIgotleftoffBadandBougie… doitlookitlikeIgotleftoffBadandBougie). But this is not that. His ‘Pull Up’ series, according to Joe himself, is all about sitting down ONLY with folks HE gives a f**k about. This T-Pain episode, case in point, looks like a conversation that is the result of ‘pulling up’ on a longtime homie to catch up & give him a chance to get deeper in depth about things like moves he’s made (changing the game with autotune, putting out the ultimate “Boo’d Up” remix) and moves he’s about to make (rumors of dope music in his clip he is about to let off).
Good stuff. Watch!

Snoop Dogg Welcomes Mario Lopez To The GGN News Desk (Video)
July 16, 2018
Mario Lopez loves being a host the most. But on GGN, he’s gotta fall back and let The DoggFather host him.
On the latest episode of GGN, Lopez stopped by the studio to sit down with Uncle Snoop, where the duo discussed longevity in the world of entertainment, the difference between acting and hosting, the financial benefits of cloning, and what if feels like to get recognized by other legendary actors (“I was like, ‘Dang, Al Pacino, Tony Montana, how do you know who I am?! That tripped me out.’â€)
– Westfest TV
Noticing something. I think this is the second non-smoking guest Snoop has had on GGN (as Stephen A. Smith did not light up either). You know the lanes Mario travels do not allow for smoking *wink*
