There seems to be alot of NaS going around lately. Oh well, It's for the better.

King Magazine recently released some lost excerpts of their interview with Nas. While most of it had to do with Nas discussing his early years in Hip Hop, one question and accusation proved to be a bit eyebrow raising.

"I ran into Prodigy last week and asked him, 'What should I ask Nas?' He said, 'Ask him, ‘What happened backstage at the Central Park show in 2004,’” Thomas Golianopoulos inquired.

“Man, that was some classic Mobb Deep shit. They was rumbling,” Nas replied regarding a fight that took place backstage between Mobb Deep and others. But Prodigy thinks that those involved were Nas’ people.

“He thinks you set him up,” Golianopoulos responded.

Nas went on to discuss his relationship with Prodigy and addressed the situation.

“I did hear that. Nah, I would never do that to him,” Nas retorted. “We had our differences, which was really just hyped up bullshit. I wish everything for Prodigy. They caught a lot of bad breaks. I just wish the best for him. I wish he didn’t have to do this time. And I would love to see them come back again. I would be the first person in the record store buying a Mobb album. I want to see them give it to us however many more times.”

Nas also revealed how he felt about Mobb Deep joining G-Unit.

“I was really happy to see 50 embrace them. I thought that was G because that’s something that doesn’t happen from the higher ups. All these big companies, they don’t care about us. They don’t care about the talented ones that aren’t given a fair shot and I thought it was a good move on 50’s part to give them a deal.”

Nas' Untitled drops July 15th.

Slept On Cd's: Round 3

Sorry for the lack of updates. It's been a busy summer. But I'm back for Round 3 of Slept On CD's. This week features *drum roll*


BlackStar by BlackStar

This cd is a true definition of what hip hop really is. Talib Kweli and Mos Def (From the Native Tounges) have given us what rarely comes along, good lyrics, great beats, and positive vibes. From the banging intro to the end track, you will not be disappointed. Definition, Respiration (with Common), and Brown Skin Lady are the standout tracks. Hi Tek has come with some of the best production I've heard in a long time while Mos Def and Talib Kweli NEVER slack off on the rhymes. While this cd came out in 1999, it was ahead of it's time and is still as enjoyable to ANYONE as Illmatic was to NaS fans and hip hop fans. It is, yet again, a cd you should NOT sleep on. Get it ASAP.

Slept On CD's:Round 2

Ok. Sorry for the lack of updating. SOHH.com was recently BOMBED with hackers, and I wasn't about to head over there and risk getting my stuff jacked. And I wasn't going to risk the other news sites. So...For the time being it's time for Slept On CD's: Round 2.

The Minstrel Show by Little Brother

From Phonte and Big Pooh's sleek rhymes and ridiculous flows to producer extraordinaire 9th Wonder's laid back beats, this cd just shines like a diamond. The cd is one smooth lyrical gem. Slow It Down, Lovin' It, and Cheatin are some of the best tracks. While every other track is just as good, those are my personal favorites. Cheatin' is actually a humourous RnB type ballad that has Phonte playing the role of singer Percy Miracles singing about his girlfriend cheating on him...or maybe her momma's house number changed. He never really finds out. Beautiful Morning is another stand out track. And the track after that is classic. "I had niggas telling me I really shouldn't rhyme//To dropping a classic Motherf**kers couldn't find." Indeed, it and The Minstrel Show are both classics. Go get 'em.
