Tray Deee Remembers Nipsey Hussle As Charitable & Courageous For Staying In His Hood And Doing Business (Video)
I saw a commenter on this YouTube clip state: “I hate speaking on Nipsey in past tense.” So do I, Curry Shot You. So do I.
Tray Deee spoke to VladTV about no other rapper giving back to their community like Nipsey Hussle. He explained that while Nipsey was small in stature, he had heart and stood for what he represented. Tray Deee added that Nipsey had a passion for his businesses and was able to take his love for his Crenshaw neighborhood and turn it into a brand.

‘Blade’ Paved The Way For All The MCU Blockbusters That Would Follow (Video)
Not everyone, but many folks ignore or outright diss the ‘Blade’ contribution to what Marvel has offered the movie world.
(Looking at you, too, ‘Deadpool’… ‘Blade: Trinity’ was my fave of the series, but you take shots at it. Hannibal King foreverrr!)
Check out this discussion clip giving the props that Marvel’s first Black hero [before all the #WakandaForever stuff] movie deserves.
And yes, ‘Black Panther’ is a far better movie than anything in the ‘Blade’ franchise. Not the point though. Just saying it before the haters do.

Check Out Marlon Wayans’ Sneaker Collection (Video)
Of course, it’s only right that we keep the Wayans coverage going. Just shared the “In Living Color” reunion (here) with you. How about we crossover to Marlon Wayans collections of shoes that some NBA ballers used to wear while crossing folks up? HA!
Watch me go through some of my sneakers!

More than just basic sneaks in this collection, too.

Watch The Full ‘In Living Color’ 25 Year Reunion Live Stream (Video)
Score for Comedy Hype! Would have been great to be there with the comedic greats. There was NOTHING that could touch these folks’ show when they were really on. Even if they called it a ‘Black SNL.’
Keenen Ivory Wayans, Kim Wayans, Shawn Wayans, David Alan Grier, and Tommy Davidson sit down to discuss “In Living Color’s” legacy at 2019 Tribeca Film Festival.
Enjoyed “Hollywood Shuffle” back in the day. Now I gotta go find a copy of that “Partners In Crime” followup to watch.

Chris Rivers is back with visuals for his song “Birds†(featuring Avery). Rod The Producer provides the beat work. The song itself is about dealing with a breakup, while trying to cope, at a house party. However, he keeps seeing relationship reminders, and he cannot shake the thoughts or the feeling.

Did he say he would NOT pray for leather shoes because got blessed by God with flip-flops to walk in this Hip-Hop?? Wooooo! Y’all hear this? Do you FEEL this? Well, play it again if you do. Or keep playing it ’til you do. Blessed barz! Another heater off “A Breukelen Story” by Masta Ace & Marco Polo, featuring Pharoahe Monch. This is “The Fight Song.”
Leslie “Big Lez” Segar Speaks On Nas’ & “Illmatic” (Video)
I listen to music, obviously, from my hips rather than my ears, because I’m a dancer…
And what lovely hips they are, Leslie. Make me wanna sing to them. Have mercy!
Give me a late pass… mainly because Big Lez is so gaaadaaamn SEXY! Plus she is speaking on Nas’ “Illmatic” as one of her ‘Best Albums’ ever. So appropriate that this happened to be Episode 25 in a series since this is the 25th year since the release of “Illmatic.”
Leslie #BigLez Segar picks #Nas’ #Illmatic for her episode of #BestAlbums. The #Queens #NewYork #dancer & #radiohost explains why she feels a #deep #connection to the #album. She also talks about the power of #NYStateOfMind #LifesABitch & #TheWorldIsYours, as well as the production work of #DJPremier #PeteRock & #QTip.
– Unique Access Ent.
Great interview! And I remember the ‘wooooow’ feeling I got when I learned that that was Nas’ dad playing him out on “Life’s A B!tch.” Beautiful song!

In The Studio: !llmind (Video)
Output is not doing any ‘blind picks’ here. The producer is allowed to be who they ‘be’ in making fire beats. Check out this latest ep of ‘In the Studio’ with !llmind.
The multi-platinum Grammy-winning producer behind Beyonce and Jay-ZÂ and Huncho Jack drops into Output’s studio to make a beat with Exhale.
Leave some space for the vocalist… Don’t over-produce… JEWELS!
Some wise words well spoken #wwws by this weathered wizard of music making. Take heed, beatsmiths!

Stephen Colbert Speaks On Former U.S. Veep Joe Biden Is “Doin’ It Donkey Style” (Video)
Good title on the YouTube clip, ‘Joe Biden Is Making Donald Trump Nervous.’ Plus, this is hilarious for several other reasons. Welcome to Campaign 2020, Uncle Joe!
Joe Biden kicked off his 2020 campaign with a rally on Monday. And Donald Trump was watching.
– The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
President Trump might need to keep worrying about ‘Sleepy Joe.’ He is ‘woke’ and ready for the fight!

Presenting Miss Info, One Of The Architects of “Illmatic†(Video)
The 5 mics was right… There’s no person that this can’t touch.
YES! Speak on it, Shortie.
“It did not feel like something that was created in a boardroom. It felt like it was happening… like a storm.” The legendary Miss Info remembers penning her storied “5 mic” Illmatic review for ‘The Source’ under her “Shortie” moniker before the album was out in ’94. That moment changed two industries forever: Hip-Hop and Hip-Hop journalism.
– Mass Appeal
You did not think she was just a blogger, did you? Naaaah, son. Miss Info was Miss ‘It Thang’ in several circles back in the day. And she called it on “Illmatic,” declaring the LP worthy of a rare rating of 5 (out of 5) mics in THE Hip-Hop magazine of the era. Shortie aka Miss Info had the ear, demonstrating that early on, and earned the juice going forward. With such stripes in the game, you need to listen to her speak on this. Kind of ‘made’ a career for herself and Nassir.

“Sonic The Hedgehog” Goes From Gaming Monitors To Movie Theaters (Vibe)
Two things you know are gonna be good in this: (1) the “Sonic The Hedgehog” CGI and (2) Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik!
“Sonic The Hedgehog” is a live-action adventure comedy based on the global blockbuster videogame franchise from Sega that centers on the infamously brash bright blue hedgehog. The film follows the (mis)adventures of Sonic as he navigates the complexities of life on Earth with his newfound – human – best friend Tom Wachowski (James Marsden). Sonic and Tom join forces to try and stop the villainous Dr. Robotnik (Jim Carrey) from capturing Sonic and using his immense powers for world domination. The film also stars Tika Sumpter and Ben Schwartz as the voice of Sonic.

Presenting L.E.S., One Of The Architects of “Illmatic†(Video)
Yeah, Nassir doing a live performance of singles from the Hip-Hop classic LP he birthed goes way beyond ‘Mass Appeal’… but the channel has it covered. Especially with post-event commentary from one the “Illmatic” LP’s architects, L.E.S.
“Man, when I heard he was performing it… I was actually like, ‘What is going on?’†L.E.S. remembers the night Nas immortalized ‘Illmatic’ in the annals of live music when he played the album at The Kennedy Center with the National Symphony Orchestra as his backing band.

4-IZE – “You A Shooter†(Freestyle) [Video]
Real talk I need y’all to understand: These 4-IZE freestyles often make me go back and listen to the actual original tracks to see what the original song sounds like… and sometimes… Nah, not gonna say it. Just know that 4-IZE stacks up to everyone he is rapping after on these instrumentals. Respek on his name for that alone!
