Yung Joc Hosts “Plates And Poles.” Watch Episode 1 Now (Video)

It goes down like THAT at the strip club… like shrimp & salmon with mac & cheese? Like THAT??? Apparently so in Atlanta. And Yung Joc is going to kick off this “Plates And Poles” series and bring you the real deal full meal on it.

Man, you’ll be ogling what Chef Kelz puts on them plates about as much as you’d be ogling the ‘shoe models’ at The Blue Flame. Hahaaa!

Comedy: Trying To Get That Old Thing Back? Curtis And Vivica Go To Couples Therapy On ’50 Central’ (Video)

This could have gone any number of ways, and Fif ‘n Viv played havoc with all of them… a little jokey-jokey, some gangsta sh!t, some a lot of sexual innuendo.

After years of separation, the two moguls enter the same room for a therapy session and things get a little dangerous.
– BET Networks

Bwaaahahaa! Viv was about to “Set It Off” (caught that?) on 50 Central… Whoa! Put the knife DOWN!

Besides… I see you… keeping thangs tizzight, Ms. Fox. I’m saying though. Maybe 50 don’t want that thang-thang, but I know a dude who wanna see about it (raised my hand, hoping to raise my… heh… nevermind).

Black Love: Flex Alexander & Shanice (Video)

So adorable I can hardly stand it. Like right up there with Papoosa & Remy Ma’s tried and true lovey-dovey love. In theirs and in Flex Alexander & Shanice’s cases, I am drooling at how hot the ladies are but cannot hate on their dudes… and thus, I end up rooting for their relationships. There is hope and happiness; because there is Black Love. A couple like this proves it! Through thick and thin and thick again. Watch Flex’Nice talk about it.

Black Love: Remy Ma And Papoose (Video)

Hip-Hop’s most lovable lyricists tell us what’s real about their real love. Not surprising that this clip will make you go ‘awww.’ That’s what we are used to now. Not even surprised that they’ve lasted this long. After being loyal through Ma’s stretch in jail, why would Pap go anywhere? Devotion, his wifey being fire on the mic and fine everywhere else (rowrrr)… Sure, those things are part of the story… but watch and listen as the loving couple tell us more.

Respect for women; not just his woman. That got Ma, not the bars, huh? Interesting.

Watch Royce Da 5’9 ‘Rate The Bars’ (Video)

Some of the ‘ratings’ on this clip surprised me a bit, but others were right on par with what I thought Royce would rate. Still a great content concept and I agree with the scores for the most part.

Watch Joe Budden ‘Rate The Bars’ (Video)

This is stupid trash… and I’m sorry…
Joe Budden

Bwaaaahahaaaa! I kinda expected frankness and shots from Jumpoff Joe. And he certainly delivers. What makes it funny, extra funny, is that he remains super-mellow while giving out the ratings.

Awesome that Budden knows half the emcees by their bars, too.

Watch Remy Ma ‘Rate The Bars’ (Video)

Wow, Remy Ma is RAW! Weezy scores a 2. She recorded with Montana and he got the lowest score she could give. Zero for Fabolous and Joe Buddens, too. EVERYBODY can get it!

Interesting. Remy gave higher than expected rank to enemy-as-of-late Nicki Minaj. Seems like true ratings can come through when you cannot match the lyrics to Hip-Hop’s Who’s Who. Bars matter, not an emcee’s so-called ‘status’ in the game.

20 Years Later: Doe Or Die (Docu-Series) [Parts 1 & 2] (Video)

Can you believe it has been 20 years since AZ (born Anthony Cruz) dropped that “Doe Or Die” maaaan? BET is doing a 20th Anniversary celebration and has enlisted the G-O-D-M-C Rakim to narrate. The story is told in six parts. Part 1 is above. Part 2 is after the jump.

Looks like a great start!

Damon Dash Speaks On His Cousin Stacey Dash ‘Cooning’ For Cash On Fox News (Video)

That’s her job right now: To evoke emotion on that platform… Either way, she’s my cousin.

What Dame is on: Yes, associate the name Dash with cash, but NOT with ‘coonery’… and NOT with Republicans! Well, say what you want about Damon Dash; but he is going to say what he is going to say and mean it. Family or not.

Above he goes straight ahead on the hot topic of the minute – the craziness his cousin Stacey is spitting on Fox News (especially against BET) for the entertainment of White people. But the balance and majority of the interview is about his business and movie moves on deck. Good watch!

L.A. to The Bay (Documentary)

Screenshot 2015-07-13 22.49.21Like most anything, folks who don’t know what they are looking at will miss some things. Case in point: Y’all know the West Coast is not just some monolithic thing, right?

(If not, just nod along like you do. We got you after the jump below.)

Check out this BET documentary released in the buildup for The BET Experience. It’s entitled “L.A. To The Bay” and provides a good overarching look at two major pockets of music and culture that make up Hip-Hop out there in Cali. Competitive rivalry to making inroads. Up-and-comers and industry vets (including DJ Quik, E-40, Nipsey Hu$$le, Ty Dolla $ign, DJ Mustard, HBK Gang, Problem, Bad Lucc, Bobby Brackins). Heavy baselines, g-funk, 808s and storylines. Gangbanging and pimping. And more. Let’s get some Left Coast perspective, shall we? Hit the jump below and click play.

Could Kendrick Lamar and Erykah Badu Be ‘Making A Connection?’ (Video)

Maybe NY’s Hot 97 radio personality Rosenberg is burying Kendrick Lamar’s career a bit prematurely. But… looking into those eyes of Erykah Badu… holding her hand… maybe other stuff… it can change an emcee. Andre. Common Sense. Just saying. Check the BET performance after the jump and witness the cause of Rosenberg’s lamentations after the jump.

Ice Cube Speaks On ‘N.W.A.’ movie, ’21 Jump Street’ film, & Another ‘Friday’ Movie (Video)

I haven’t really caught BET’s 106 & Park in years regularly. It’s been a long while since I sat down & paid attention but Ice Cube appeared on the show recently promoting his new “21 Jump Street” film. In addition to plugging & promoting for the new film that opens March 16th, Mr. Oshea Jackson spoke on the upcoming ‘Friday’ film, an N.W.A. movie, & more….

Dr. Maya Angelou & Common Discuss Kanye West, The N-Word, & Receiving The Presidential Medal Of Freedom (Video)

BET aired this Soul Mates special featuring Chi-town emcee & actor Common interviewing Dr. Maya Angelou. She tells a few great stories in this piece in relation to getting your point across while still maneuvering through an entertainment industry that not so subtly has an air of racism within it.
