Sean Price – “Brooklyn’s Finest” / “Dikembe Mutombo” (Video)
September 26, 2017
Not really sure about who Matt was to Sean Price, but I, for one, am appreciative of the work being put in on these visuals… keeping all kinds of heat on Sean BARbarian’s name in these streets! Check out the double-up done for the late great Imperius Rex. Hashed up some other songs -Â “Da Finest” (remix, originally by Dangafield, featuring Sean Price) and “Dikembe Palumbo” (by Jake Palumbo, featuring Sean Price) – to make this.

Check out the interview above. It may help Kevin find the funny, eventually.
Plus he talks about recent life, family and road experiences; and his comedy special.

Apollo Brown x Planet Asia – “Get Back” (Video)
September 26, 2017
Yeah. Another banger! Gritty, like this visual. Hope you like “Anchovies.” Eff that, you are LOVING the LP if you are a Hip-Hop head. As for the bug-looking, fishy, salty pizza topping… well, some like it, some don’t.
The new album “Anchovies.” from Detroit’s Apollo Brown and Fresno’s Planet Asia isn’t for everybody. It’s lo-fi, nasty, and minimalist to the extreme. But for some, it’s absolutely perfect. Stripped down to accentuate Asia’s bars, Apollo Brown lays a gorgeous backdrop for gutter tales.

Apathy x O.C. – “The Broadcast”
September 26, 2017
Apathy and O.C. from DITC on “The Broadcast” though… we HAVE to interrupt your regular programming for this. Plus, maybe your favorite deejay will rotate this into their ‘regular programming’ (for the win)! This single is another one off the duo’s collab LP entitled “Perestroika.”

Comedy: The All Def Digital Panel Convenes To Discuss ‘The Best Struggle Food’ (Video)
September 25, 2017

The SquADD discusses the best food to eat when cash flow is low. #GreatTaste

The Best Struggle Food in this for real… CREAM CORN SANDWICHES! I have NEVER…and never will!!! Damn, Tony. I’m sorry.

Jhené Aiko’s Short Film “Trip†(Video)
September 25, 2017
We posted the teaser on here. Now it’s time for the full-length short film. This is “Trip.”
Stirring.
‘Penny’ and her late bro (Miyagi) had to have the most unreal bond. The movie above about that is one thing. But the raw confession audio after the jump though… DO NOT MISS THAT!
73 Questions With Tracee Ellis Ross (Video)
September 25, 2017
The uber-cute Tracee Ellis Ross is featured here. This ep is essential Tracee 73 Questions ep. Sunny, joyful, warm, beautiful… a threesome with Rihanna and James Dean… and kinds of good things happening in life, esp. between 3 and 6 AM.

Sports/Politics: Bob Costas Declares That President Trump Has Galvanized The #TakeAKnee Movement (Video)
September 25, 2017
Do you want a President of the United States who, even if you’re giving him the benefit of that doubt, is so tone deaf to the racial implications of this?
– Bob Costas
Right on time! There was so much on Kaep and #TakeAKnee this past weekend and even before. Wasn’t sure how to cover it all here. But then veteran sportscaster/commentator Bob Costas comes through and wraps it with a bow!
NBC Sports broadcaster Bob Costas speaks to CNN’s John Berman and Alisyn Camerota after President Donald Trump criticized the NFL and players who took a knee during the national anthem.
– CNN
Great points. Trump galvanized the #TakeAKnee movement. Can’t even call this ‘shots fired’ really. Just facts!

DL Hughley Speaks On Generational Wealth, The Struggle For Civil Rights For Gay People Vs. Black People, And How Comedy Has Helped Humans Evolve (Video)
September 25, 2017
Black people are jealous of gay people… It’s not hate. It’s jealousy.
Interesting how taglines are chosen. This clip is actually a Part 10 of what we thought was a six-part conversation with DL Hughley. And it is entitled “Black People are Jealous of Gay People,” which is covered in here. BUT Hughley’s thoughts on how important and intrinsic comedy is to humanity are the bulk of what was discussed, and so incredibly insightful. Watch above.
D.L. Hughley opened up to VladTV about his thoughts on generational wealth, his favorite comedians, and how comedy has helped humans evolve.
When it comes to his favorite comedians, D.L. named off Richard Pryor, George Carlin, Redd Foxx, and Robin Harris, and he shared why Dick Gregory and Mark Twain illustrated the human condition in the best way. He also mentioned coming up with Jamie Foxx and being mad that someone could be as talented as the “Ray” actor.
After sharing his thoughts on how Ellen was integral in the way people saw the gay community, D.L. explains how comedy has led to the evolution of humans. You can hear more about what he had to say in the above clip.
– DJ Vlad
(If you want, you can catch up with Parts seven, eight, and nine after the jump. Then watch 10 above. If you want…)

Western History Vs. African History (Video)
September 24, 2017
Hmmm… How deep can deep get? Africans did not even see themselves as Africans, or being tied to the African continent… and even the name “Africa” is derivative of what Westerners / Europeans imposed. Watch Dr. John Henrik Clarke drop serious science and knowledge on that, and more, above.
An analysis of the history of Africa as compared to Western civilization. European scholars asserted that the so-called ‘Egyptians’ were non-African until C. Diop’s melanin pigmentation test on Pharaohs proved otherwise.

Prophets Of Rage Speak On The New Album And On Trump Not Being The Sole Reason For The Group’s Being (Video)
September 22, 2017
Bahaaa! Timmy C. with the ex-girlfriend level of intensity in getting controversial documentarian (and fan of Rage Against The Machine, Cypress Hill, and Public Enemy) Michael Moore to do the Prophets Of Rage music video… pays off.
Prophets Of Rage (Tom Morello, Tim Commerford, Brad Wilk, Chuck D, B-Real and DJ Lord) came together during 2016’s tumultuous election to combat the coming storm. Fresh off the road and riled up following last summer’s highly successful “Make America Rage Again†tour, the group knew it could evolve from protest performance art with a tactical mission, to a stand-alone entity with creative ideas all its own. At its core, Prophets Of Rage functions not only on a love of music, but a deep belief in its power as a tool, and a weapon. The group stopped by the BUILD Studio to discuss their new self-titled album.
– BUILD Series
Egos put aside for the music and the mission and the creative process. Hear the supergroup talk about it all above. Shout out to ATL’s own DJ Lord in there, too.

September 22, 2017
Even if you have never camped out in line to be among the first to get the new ‘you fancy huh?’ phone, this clip should let you understand why iPhone fanatics did. And this iPhone 8 though. That look, that sleek ‘body’ and it being so ‘just for you’ it knows you by touch (as in Touch ID)… Wow!
The phone’s release day is tomorrow. For those who are still undecided, too bad we couldn’t hear Siri’s voice to seal the deal. Hahaha!
