Raekwon with a throwback low key attack of a 90’s track. Here’s his take over on Horace Brown’s R&B cut “Trippin'”entitled “Stop Tripping.”
Celebrities Undercover: Ice-T And Coco (Video)
INCREDIBLE makeup transformations! Ice-T and Coco (that’s them in the makeup; for real) dress up to blend in with their fans, participating in fake scenarios set up to uncover people’s real feelings about each of them. Wendy Williams as host to the overall appearance kind of hints at ‘messiness’… but don’t worry… it doesn’t go overboard like that. Interesting and insightful watch. Enjoy.
(Oh… and speaking of enjoyment… see Coco doing what she do after the jump. So thick. So fit. A li’l bonus eye candy for y’all.)

Comedy: Who’s F**king? Debra & Josh…That’s Who! (Video)
Who’s F**king: Josh and Debra
So hilarious. First time I watched I hollered; laughing uncontrollably! The Onion brings us an “intimate portrait” of Debra and Josh’s relationship growth – from initial encounter to ‘plowing so hard that she’d walk funny for two days straight.’
WHAT??!! Yep. Off the off switch! Watch and laugh.

Science: Massive Solar Wind Energy Tower To Be Built By 2018 (Video)
Incredible innovation in the field of renewable energy on the horizon; and it only took about three-and-a-half decades to bring the idea to life. Patented in 1975, execution of plans to build a $1.5 billion solar-wind power tower is underway in Arizona (scheduled completion in 2018). It will be the tallest free-standing structure in America and generate (on average) almost as much as the country’s smallest nuclear reactor… but create zero nuclear waste! Energy sourced by generating wind using hot air, cooled by sprays of fresh water, flowing through turbine tunnels.
Fury (Trailer)
They’re coming…300 of ’em…There’s 5 against 300.
We ain’t never run before. Why we gone run now?
An overwhelming enemy force on the approach to annihilate a much smaller force fighting for its way of life away from home; the fate of so many in the hands of so few. Like they tamped down the numbers of the Battle of Thermopylae told by the CGI-heavy “300” movie and updated arrow, sword and shield weaponry with tanks, guns and ammo. Check out the first trailer for Brad Pitt’s upcoming war epic (due out in theaters November 14, 2014). Not much obvious CGI in the trailer above though; looks to rely on a gritty, provocative story steeped in World War II era Germany. Pitt can hold his own in a tale of this magnitude certainly. Going to be interesting to see if co-stars like Shia LaBeouf and Michael Pena can keep up with their WarDaddy (lead character, played by Pitt) in this heavy heady film.
Sean Price – “Elmer Fudd” (More Cowbell)
Puay! Sean Price with some more straight forward “rappity rap shit” for your ears. Uncredited flows follow Sean’s over the GZA instrumental for “Killa Hills 10304.” Like other freestyles… no info with what he’s working toward with this “Elmer Fudd” (More Cowbell) release. Just threw it over the fence so we, those hungry for whatever, P does can feed on the dopeness. We’ll get what he drops – whatever’s next. Enjoy the FREE stream below with us for now though.
BIGREC – “Doomsday” (All Tracks Produced By Diamond D) [Album Stream]
Where did this dude come from!?!? How does an emcee born in New Orleans, raised in Oklahoma, stomp through the Atlanta indie Hip-Hop circuit, link with the legendary producer Diamond D… who declares that
“REC is part of the new school of emcees, but he still has that eternal Hip-Hop sound which made me gravitate toward him, and I don’t gravitate toward nothing I don’t believe in 100%.”
Dope…oh yeah back to the question… How does such an emcee as BIGREC come along to take the world stage just as Hip-Hop makes its full revolution (RHHIB); ready to receive him?
Well, who can know for certain? Do you question every blessing? Okay then. Why not spend that time enjoying this FREE stream of the album that officially launches Diamond D’s Dymond Mine Records label, “Doomsday.” Featuring the likes of R.A. the Rugged Man, Blake Moses and TH5PENTAGON – with a nod from the DJ Premier – you could go through the link below and cop a copy of the work. You know, to collect your own evidence and make your own case… that Real Hip-Hop Is Back. RHHIB!

The LOX – “D-Block Survivor”
Sometimes those audio clips used as intros don’t add much to the song. But the sample The LOX chose adds amp-factor to the rap energy when Sheik Louch pounces on this “D-Block Survivor” track. Jadakiss and Styles P follow up to finish the beatdown. Good stuff. Stream it below for your own review. D-Block!

Eye Candy: BUMBUM Fútbol Team (Video)
YOWZAAAA! Have you been watching the World Cup? Well, futbol fan or not, you can’t help but be a fan of all the fantastic fanny in this ‘sporty’ video. Don’t know what they are trying to do…but they are doing it for me! Give it up for the BUMBUM Football Team (played by a bunch of Miss BUMBUM Brasil contestants; each a ‘winner’ for Brazil’s best booty in her own right…a shame they only pick one each year).
Deeeeeee-yum!

It’s like Sade over a souped Jeru loop peppered with some West Coast flow. Yeah. It’s exactly like that! Soulful harmonies from Marsha Ambrosius on “Stronger†(featuring Dr. Dre) off her forthcoming “Friends & Lovers” album.
Mac Miller – “Melt” feat. ScHoolboy Q (Prod. By Pete Rock)
Got to love when emcees drop worthy verses for a producer they truly appreciate. You know a Pete Rock beat alone was grounds for calling a song official back in the Golden Era. Mac Miller and ScHoolboy Q flow on this “Melt” (produced by Pete Rock) like they know, too. Hear ’em out below.
