We broach DJ Premier’s recent revelation that Jay-Z asked him to be sole producer of the Black Album. How would that have turned out? We can only imagine.
Speaking of the Jiggaman, he just released his book Decoded and is making his rounds on the interview circuit. The Grammy Awards announced their 2010 nominees with some mysterious omissions in the Hip-Hop categories.
Redman and T.I. drop disappointing albums while Michael Jackson delivers the first one of “new” material after his demise. John Lennon ‘s legacy is discussed as we commemorate the 30th anniversary of his assassination in New York. We also talk about his influence on Hip-Hop. We also take a look at Pimp C on the anniversary of his passing and his UGK
