Juice Wrld | Freestyles On Flex | Freestyle #101 (Video)

No offense… Nah f**k that, ALL OFFENSE!

Bwaahahaa! Okay, Juice Wrld got bars. Count this as one Flex rightfully passed the mic to. Says he’s coming off the top of the head in this clip. Respek on his name if that’s truly true. But I’m digging it either way!

Snoop Dogg Welcomes Mario Lopez To The GGN News Desk (Video)

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.’”)
– 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*

3D Na’Tee | Slippin T.Mix | Monday Morning Exercise #020 (Video)

I’ll be damned if Na’Tee ain’t a sexy thang, and I’d put money up against anything betting on her lyrical skills. Plus this “Slippin” beat for DMX’s throwback joint was always a fave of mine on e’rythang! Lyrical perfection in the booth. Observe and take note.

Why Is Action Bronson’s Face Shaved? (Video)

Action Bronson has a brand new look! The rapper is now walking around with a shaved face. Wait til you hear the crazy story behind it.

Rah Digga, Lord Jamar, And Godfrey Get Into A Real Independence Day Conversation (Trailer)

Another ep of “Yanadameen.” Godfrey is a frequenter over on VladTV, as is Lord Jamar. Jamar gets up with the brother and brings him onto the Godcast. Got it!

Rah Digga puts a series of topical questions to Lord Jamar and Godfrey to get their thoughts in typically raw and unfiltered fashion. The first talking point is the protestor who scaled the Statue of Liberty in protest against President Trump’s hardline immigration policies; Godfrey praises the actions of the protestor but takes a moment to call out Mexicans for their anti-Black racism and highlight the fact that they’re getting their wake-up call now with Trump in office. Rah Digga also asks about the incident between Dame Dash and Lee Daniels over a 2 MILLION DOLLAR loan/investment. Was it right for Dame to step to Daniels like this?

Ice Cube Talks About ‘Big3’ Season 2 & Passing His White House Invitation To Partner Michael Rapaport (Video)

For some reason, EVERY time I see Ice Cube I hear MC Serch rap, “Would use the F-word, but Ice Cube got the copyright…”

Well, though I’m sure Cube will still drop an F-bomb, he just doesn’t seem like that dude to me anymore. And that’s a good thing, because he’s so much more to the community: emcee, actor, producer/director/filmmaker, entrepreneur, and Big3 founder!

Ice Cube On Big3 & Why He Wants To ‘Kill The G.O.A.T.’
– Breakfast Club Power 105.1 FM

I’m slipping though. Didn’t know that Big3 season 2 was already here. As an emcee we all admire would say of that, “Once again it’s on!”
