Ghost Ride the Innernetos.

Summer Jump off concert. Nas. The Roots and Erykah at a Jay D benefit concert in May. Who's with me??!?!?!?

This what is so beautiful about hip hop. People w/ similar interests coming together to argue and obsess over obscure Nas disses, the viability of Papoose as an emcee and audio-textual layers of a Premier beat. DJ Premier Blog

E-40 and his SON Droop E inna article in the New York Times. The Bay Is Bubblin' fam.

Eventually Mr. Stevens, who raps as E-40, became renowned for a vocal style that takes bits and pieces from each of his identities, a spirited, intricate gobbledygook of carefully tweaked lingo that reveals itself fully only on repeated listens. The same could be said of regular conversation with him, which is punctuated with phrases — "I'm from the land of the slick talkers and collar poppers," "When I was a young mustache," "I hung in there like a hubcap in the fast lane" — that demand careful attention, and maybe a little context (in order: boastful, wistful, defiant).

In a sense, E-40 wa
s hyphy before hyphy existed. (The word refers both to the music and its attendant culture, which includes, among other things, unusually loose-limbed dancing and ghostriding, an unusually risky form of stunt driving.) "On the old Sick Wid It records, he would get on one of those slow bass lines and he would quick rap over it," Mugzi said. "Now, the music is catching up to him."

Remember all that ying yang about the port situation. Well come to find out DUBAI allready owns ownership intersts in hella US companies. So let me get this reasoning straight. Dubai can run the docks but they can have an ownership intrest in Chrysler:
Dubai International Capital is the third-largest investor in DaimlerChrysler, and through investments with the Carlyle Group and JPMorgan, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum has dollars and dirhams in a wide range of U.S. companies. Each Dunkin’ Donuts’ coffee, Baskin-Robbins sundae, Hertz car rental, and Alain Ducasse dinner New Yorkers buy makes the sheikh richer. Don’t tell Congress.

I need to start attending these concerts..but what's a soon-to-be college grad to do?

It was hard to get into E-40 but I respect the man as a pioneer of a style so many have copied...it pays to be you..

That Radio City concert is gonna be the one where Thought, Common, Nas, Jay, a 93 Ice Cube, and Rakim all spit their best 16s over the greatest Primo beat ever, right? I hope so.

That Premier blog is nice. Looks like I got another online distraction.

And Droop E shoulda handled more prod. on Ghetto Report Card. Bay Bridges was a stripe-earning performance.
