Rapper Warren G, whose hits include "Regulate"
and a Hip-Hop remake of "I Shot the Sheriff," was
arrested in Hollywood on Sunday on suspicion of
possession of marijuana with intent to sell, police
said. Warren G, whose real name is Warren Griffin
III,
was riding in a car driven by Ryan Butler, 29,
when they were pulled over about 1:40 a.m. on suspicion
of running a red light near Hollywood Boulevard and
Wilcox Avenue, said Los Angeles Police Officer Sara
Faden. She said officers searched the car and found
enough marijuana to arrest them for possession with
intent to sell. She said she did not know the exact
amount seized.
Griffin and Butler each posted $20,000 bail; they were
released Sunday morning.
Griffin,
35, grew up in Long Beach and is known for helping
popularize G-Funk rap, a West Coast-branded style of
Hip-Hop that emerged in the early 1990s...

LIL
WAYNE SAYS, "F#CK MIXTAPE DJ's":
Lil’
Wayne’s
recent comment about mixtape DJ’s is coming back to
bite him where it hurts worse: potential album sales.
The Cash Money star unexpectedly criticized the
underground industry in an interview with
Foundation Magazine, a title dedicated to
covering the mixtape game.
The
rapper, whose DJ Drama hosted Dedication
series and DJ Khaled fronted Da Drought 3
catapulted his stock among fans, responded to a question
about his favorite mixtape DJ by lashing out: “Fuck you
if you a mixtape DJ.”
“I
created the mixtape game, but I’m not into that no
more,” Wayne said. “I’m doing Lil’ Wayne. I’m against
it, anti-mixtape dude. I don’t know no mixtape DJs.” The
comment seemed directed at various DJs who have put
together their own Lil’ Wayne compilations without the
rapper’s approval, this despite the fact he often leaks
his material himself.
Regardless, various DJs are now leaking Lil’ Wayne’s
highly-anticipated Tha Carter
III
in protest.
The
album is due to be released June 10, and was expected to
sell well, but downloadable links to the project have
popped up everywhere online.
One
anonymous DJ attached a letter with the album responding
to Wayne’s comments.
“Lately Lil Wayne, dubbed “The Greatest Rapper Alive,”
has taken a shot at all mixtape DJs,” the note began. “I
myself am a DJ and I found his inappropriateness to be
unprofessional considering how this album is highly
anticipated. So, I have received this version from a
contact who’s name I won’t disclose for his safety and
reputation. But since I can give a fuck about “The
Rapper Eater,” here’s a gift for his fans as a big “Fuck
You” to Sir Lil’ Weezy.”
Another DJ, a high-profile Southern spinner, also sent a
blast echoing the anti-Weezy sentiments. The DJ said he
was speaking out for all his fellow DJs and couldn’t let
Lil’
Wayne
off the hook for his comments. He ended his blast by
apologizing to the rapper’s label and explaining he
understands if any relationships he has with the company
would end as the result of his actions but he noted he
had to take a stand.
DJ
Doo Wop was among the first to start the backlash
against Lil’ Wayne with a a video montage he created
featuring images of
Wayne
and audio from the Cash Money camp profusely thanking
DJs.
Lil
Wayne’s label, Universal Records, has not issued
a statement in regard to his mixtape comment or the leak
of Tha Carter
III.—Jayson
Rodriguez XXL
RESPONSE FROM STREETSONSWOLL.COM:
First
and foremost, this is not only the opinion of mine, but
damn near EVERY DJ (mixtape, street, club, radio) who
heard the Lil Wayne
interview....
Fuck the mixtape djs? Interesting.....the niggas that
MADE your ass hot over the past years you disrespect and
say "fuck you" too? Well, in response to that, FUCK YOU
Dewayne Carter!
Are you serious...? Going after the dj isn't the issue
nigga! You need to ask yourself how did these niggas get
your album in advance in the first place! (Hint:
labels). Nigga the fuckin DJ who put these mixtapes out,
fed the streets with YOUR material and made you the
hottest nigga in the game for the past 2 years nigga!
Are you serious? Nigga do you NOT understand how much
$$$ your words cost you, your label, and the ones you
feed? But, you're a cash $$$ millionaire so you don't
care huh?
Point blank, FUCK YOU Too Wayne!
Djs, DJS, what the FUCK is really going on? Are you
really going to allow this to pass as if WE are not
important to ANY artists career? I've only heard a
handful of ANGRY djs that want to make a statement to
all the other artists that are thinking of saying the
samething publicly.... Check your camp to see who leaked
your records!
We all have the power to make a statement! Why the fuck
did you start djaying? Was it for the money, pussy,
fame, or were you like me, a fan of music that doesn't
give a fuck about a dollar. Someone who wakes up and
thinks about music, bettering the music community, and
feels gitters when he listens to that record that brings
back memories of the good ole days!
What has this dj community really have to say for
itself? Man WE run the industry! Understand and realize
your power family! WE say what a hit record/album is! We
play these records! WE sacrafice our livlihoods all for
the LOVE of music, but you want to be quiet about this
situation?
Don't be afraid to stand up and be vocal! What do you
have to loose, being on the servicing list for the
label? Hahaha, be real!
Do you realize that if
ALL
of you stop playing this niggas records in your mixes,
on ya stations, and etc that it would kill his
publishing? Let's teach this cat a lesson, or has the
label already BOUGHT you cats and put $$$ in your pocket
to continue the "movement". Jazzy Jeff and
Raheem Devaughn said it the best, my soul aint for
free....is yours djs?
WE can set the standard for these artists to not fuck
with the dj and be disrespectful!
Wayne
you are trippin now about the album being leaked, now
the label reps have a reason to leak your album now.
We're gone!

The
Greatest of All-time: KRS-One vs Jay-Z
by Davey D
A long held favorite past time within Hip Hop
circles is to debate the skill set of our favorite
icons. It's part and parcel of the culture as many of us
have spent countless hours analyzing and over analyzing
someone's rhyme flows, dance moves, album concepts,
artwork etc.
Within those debates there are just some universally
held beliefs that rarely get challenged unless someone
is deliberately trying to cause controversy and strike a
nerve by going over the top. One such universal truth
was broached this weekend, but this time the folks were
serious as an all out heated debate unfolded around the
issue of Hip Hop's all-time best emcee.
For years it didn't matter what brand of Hip Hop you
embraced when it came to discussing the best, KRS-One
and Rakim always held the top spots.
Names like Nas, Jay-Z, 2Pac and
Biggie to name a are usually in people's top 5 or
10, but those two top spots for most people unshakingly
belonged to the God and The Teacha-hands
down.
The older the participants in these discussions, the
more underground oriented and those who identified more
to New York style Hip Hop, tended to be more resolute
about the universal acceptance of Rakim and KRS being
Hip Hop's all-time best emcees.
There's no denying that both have changed the game. When
it comes to KRS his skillz as a scar tested battle emcee
and incredible stage performer has been unrivaled. A KRS
show could go on for hours with him delivering hit after
hit after hit that would leave the crowd exhausted
because he just brings so much energy to the stage.
Rakim while not having the same hyped up stage has
epitomized the essence of cool. His writing and his
delivery is akin to the greatest of jazz players. Like I
said those two emcees always held the top spots.
But as they say, nothing lasts forever, and so I guess I
shouldn't have been surprised when I found myself
involved in a heated debate this weekend with some
hardened New Yorker and long-time Hip hop head who were
both insistant that the top spot now belongs to Jigga
Man aka Jay-Z.
My boy Mookie a Bronx born former emcee from the
group Red, Black & Green who used to roll with
King Sun and my other boy Sean out of San
Jose a long time fixture sat up watching the Laker game
and had the debate of debates.
Mookie a long-time KRS fan kept extolling the virtues of
Jay-Z, citing his long track record of consistency in
hit-making.
Both him and Sean talked emphatically about Jay's last
album 'American Gangsta' as if it was some
sort of landmark record that symbolized the start of a
new era in Hip Hop. Mookie's main beef with KRS is that
for a period of time he was in a slump where he released
several albums that in his words, were 'wack' and
lacking both musically and even lyrically.
The argument then centered around having hit records at
which point I had to shut folks down and not allow them
to measure an artists based solely on album sales and
commercial success via radio play. If we did that we'd
have to look at how much money and promotion have been
behind a Jay-Z album and did his sales match up to the
all the exposure.
I explained that KRS has a set of fans and Jay-Z has a
set of fans. Jays fans may be the Hot 97/ commercial
radio crowd while KRS may be the underground/ so called
backpack crowd. My contention is that you have to look
at an artist and take into account how he resonates with
his base. KRS still sells out shows. KRS still connects
with his audience at shows. Like Jay his catolgue of hit
songs his deep.
Mookie and Sean argued that Jigga is a rapper's rapper
noting that Jay has managed to stay on top in the
fickle, topsy turvy world of commercial Hip Hop which in
many ways his harder. Many commercial artists are here
today and gone tomorrow.
They maintained that Jay-Z has managed to consistently
reinvent himself and stay relevant. He still delivers
hits and garners respect from all corners. His flow has
never gotten lazy. His albums are always on point.
Mookie went so far as to praise Jay-Z for pushing the
envelop and reaching out to experiment with new sounds
and styles.
He didn't elaborate but my take was he was referencing
Jay-Z hooking up with southern rappers like UGK,
or west coast producers like Rick Rock,
experimenting with the production of a young Kanye
West and before that the then emerging Neptunes.
Mookie and Sean kept saying the industry owes Jay a lot.
I countered by pointing out that KRS did the same thing
in both concept and sound and at times may have been
ahead of his time.
For
example, he laced us up with ragga-muffin and
reggae style.
Today its common place in Hip Hop to the point that we
actually forget KRS was on the front line of helping
usher that sound. People forget about how he was
flipping things on albums like Criminal Minded.
We forget about the early work he did with Just-Ice.
We forget about Mad Lion.
Today we go to a club and listen to Beanie Man
and dance the night away to Damian Marley and
forget that once upon a time that was ground-breaking
and KRS was apart of that foundation in terms of how its
now so much a part of Hip Hop.
We often overlook that KRS sparked a conscious movement
along with Public Enemy and X-Clan.
We forget about his concept of 'Edutainment'.
We forget about 'Stop the Violence' and the
movement it sparked with the Urban league.
We forget about the
HEAL
Foundation
he started when he did an album and was trying to raise
money for people to read. We forget that KRS was one of
the first rappers to lecture at a college and even pen
an editorial for the NY Times.
He was one the first to do a song demanding that
Mumia Be Free.
We forget that KRS took on the police with songs like
Black Cop and Sound of the Police.
Jigga could only hope to be so political and have such
impact.
His political movement up to date was boycotting
Crystal, wrapping himself in the American flag after
9-11, demanding the troops come home on one of his song
'Beware of the Boys' with Punjabi MC
and showing Obama slides during his recent concerts.
And in all fairness I will note that Jigga has done a
number of songs that touched upon social topics
including his recently released Minority Report
about Katrina and the cut he did with Dead Prez
called Oh Yeah.
The KRS I recall was boldly showing Malcolm X in
his videos and making no bones about it.
Am I the only one who remembers 'My Philosophy'
and KRS looking out of the window holding an Uzi ala the
infamous Malcolm X pose.
For better or for worse KRS was a pioneering figure
along with Schoolly D and Ice T for what
we now call Gangsta Rap.
The album Criminal Minded which featured
KRS' partner the late Scott La Rock together they
were known as Boogie Down Productions) was a classic
album both in sound and in its perspective.
Our debate got so heated that we started comparing
albums song by song.
We started out Criminal Minded vs
Reasonable Doubt to see which really resonated
within Hip Hop when it they were first released. Both
albums squarely connected with the streets and marked a
big change in Hip Hop in both sound and concept.
Our debate exploded around songs like;
South
Bronx
vs
Can't Knock the Hustle.
The Bridge is Over vs Ain't No N---',
9mm Goes Bang vs 22 Twos.
The debate raged on..
We then went and compared the KRS' all time classic
album 'By All Means Necessary' vs Jay-Z's
classic In My Lifetime Vol 1.
We went song for song..My Philosphy vs
A Million, I'm Still Number 1
vs 'Who You Wit'.. We went on and on.
As I said earlier, the main ding against KRS was his
mini drought of albums that weren't hitting and reaching
his usual standards.
Mookie wanted to point out albums like 'Sneak
Attack', 'Krystyles' and 'Keep
It Right' as proof positive that KRS was over.
He said KRS lost his edge.
I reminded Mookie that Jay-Z lost his way with
Blueprint 2 the Gift and the Curse.
And while I was personally feeling Kingdom Come
way too many Jigga fans was about to call it a day with
dude.
Mookie and Sean said Jay came back hard with
American Gangsta and I responded by insisting
that they go listen to KRS' new joint with Marley
Marl called 'Hip Hop Lives'.
The debate ended with us not watching the game and me
promising to share the debate with my readers.
Since then, I re-listened to a lot of Jay-Z's songs off
his earlier albums and of course American Gangsta
and there's no denying, he is one of the best ever. But
I also relistened to KRS's classics and having been
around long enough to recall what those songs meant when
they dropped, I still have to give KRS the edge. Both
Jay-Z and KRS have a ton of songs. They resonate deep
with their respective audiences. Both have changed the
game. They both can flow.
The tie breaker for me is Jay-Z vs KRS on stage-Jigga
better bring back up in the form of either the Circus
Du Solei or a J-Lo, Hallie and
Beyonce dancing back up butt naked and even then
that won't be enough to overtake focused KRS doing
battle on stage.
Nuff said.. what do y'all think when we match up two of
Hip Hop's Best KRS vs Jay-Z?"...
Martial arts icon Bruce Lee is subject of new Broadway
musical
A
musical based on the life of marital arts actor Bruce
Lee is planned for Broadway in a couple of years.
Elephant Eye Theatrical
says "Bruce Lee: Journey to the West" will be directed
by Bartlett Sher, the artistic director of
Seattle's Intiman Theatre who currently has a revival of
"South Pacific" at the Lincoln Center Theatre.
Besides martial arts, the musical will feature Chinese
opera and pop music as it traces Lee's journey to film
stardom.
He
studied philosophy at the University of Washington and
married in Seattle where he opened his first martial
arts studio before starting his movie career.
Lee
died in 1973 at the age of 32 from a brain injury. His
son Brandon also became an actor and was
accidentally shot to death in 1993 by a prop gun. Both
are buried in Seattle...
Arriving to quench the thirst of the true lovers of
Hip-Hop is the new inviting trio pronounced ALMOST
SEPTEMBER. Composed of veteran lyricist MC Lyte,
producer/writer/vocalist Whitey and
producer/writer Jared Lee, ALMOST SEPTEMBER is a
fresh, new offering for music lovers across the globe.
The name itself is a foretelling of what the trio can
do. September is the ninth month and is nestled in the
astrological sign of Virgo. Virgo is in constant search
of perfection and although, the three of them know that
no one and no thing is perfect; they are determined to
come as close as they possibly can every time they step
up to the mic. Their first single, “Beautiful,” is a
shining example.
With
10 albums, two Grammy’s and a laundry list
of other accomplishments to her credit MC Lyte is still
making history. This time she decided to bring along
two others to help revolutionize the industry she broke
boundaries in. Whitey and Jared Lee may not be
household names but their talent has touched millions.
They have written and produced for the likes of Macy
Gray, India.Arie, Tyrese, Usher,
Floetry, Toni Braxton, JoJo,
Nichole Scherzinger, Paula Deanda, Jon B,
Steph Jones, Chingy and many more. Whitey
has also won the coveted Grammy and Jared Lee has
received several Grammy nominations.
Both men love what they do
and paint musical pictures within every song.
Their
union is almost like the storyline of a favorite comic
book. The iconic artist/heroine is joined by two mighty
and talented men, who not only understand her but the
mission God has shaped. Lyte was created to be a light
in an industry that seems to feed off negativity and
darkness. Together they stand for real music that
crushes those who have fallen victim to the belief that
talent is second place to appearance and those who
believe a great track can camouflage less than stellar
content. ALMOST SEPTEMBER describes their music as
uplifting complimented by sheer positive energy. Free of
boundaries and barriers, listeners of all ages and
shades and the growing community of Hip-Hop supporters.
Complete with self-help messages about everyday
situations and underlying themes of love, peace and
respect ALMOST SEPTEMBER is the musical antidote we’ve
all been patiently awaiting.
ALMOST SEPTEMBER united while working on an album for
Macy Gray. Lyte describes their meeting as destiny. One
night when Macy was unable to attend a scheduled
session, Lyte heard a song Whitey and Jared were working
on immediately began penning some lyrics. By the end of
the night they had literally made beautiful music with
the emergence of their first single “Beautiful.” The
chemistry between them was so undeniable that they
decided to keep it going and ALMOST SEPTEMBER was born.
ALMOST SEPTEMBER is currently in the studio putting the
finishing touches on their self-titled album, which is
scheduled to drop during the first quarter of 2008.
Together MC Lyte, Whitey and Jared Lee will make history
and leave behind a legacy for all the true music lovers
to appreciate and follow. ALMOST SEPTEMBER is the
newest addition to the Family Tree roster that includes
Outkast, Nas, Kelis and more lead
by Blue Williams.

Jason-D (RadioBoise.org): "Some
people aren't made for a
9 to
5 gig in an office. My cohost Kazzeo is that way.
He's always working jobs where he can be his own boss.
He likes to set his own hours and that kind of thing.
You have to kind of wonder though what it would be like
for him in corporate America? Could he get used to the
high stress of life in a cubicle and demanding bosses?
Well, in this day and age of reality tv, we decided to
give him a shot. Here's the latest video from our
experiment. What you are about to see is Kazzeo working
away diligently in his sportcoat at his computer. Along
comes Bob down the aisle in his bright white
dress shirt. As Bob leans over to talk to Susan,
his ass knocks a pile of important papers off Kazzeo's
desk. Now, we all know that Kazzeo has a serious no ass
on my papers policy. This small accident sparks a chain
of events that can only be described as Kazzeo
completely losing his f%$king mind...

The "bzzzt.
bzzt" of the stun gun is a nice complement to any video.
Just kidding folks. That's not really Kazzeo in the
video. Those that know him would recognize that Kazzeo
is far more agitated and prefers sweaters over
sportcoats. I'm happy to report that he is safely
breaking things and boycotting record labels from the
comfort of his own home. This was only a test"...
DJ
Sage (CFRO-Vancouver, BC): " We
had some new faces in the studio. After many years of
email communication I finally got a chance to meet and
build withBrockway Biggs aka Pimp Tea. He
was been putting me onto quality Canadian Hip-Hr over
4yr now including his year end compilations, which we
always look forward. If you want to discover some of
Canada's future rap prospects check out the free mp3
download at:
www.brockwaybiggs.com. And while you are
there make sure you check Brockway's blog for all the
stories and photos from his100 day trek across Canada.
Big ups and thanks goes out to our newest intern Alex,
keep up the hard work"...
Nate
Abney (WKDU-Philly): "Well
I am not too happy that it is a Lakers-Celtics
final. I'm rooting for both teams to lose but since that
can't happen, I'll just say I hope Kobe Bryant
loses and leave it alone after that. A couple shows
coming through Philly that I'm looking forward to
seeing. The weather is hot and girls are dressing less
as the Fresh Prince once said, but not that I'm
really looking for all that it just means I can hear
Summer Time calling"...
Nesto
(WODU-VA): "The
heat is starting to pick up on the east, but if memory
serves me well it was already blazing by this time last
year. It looks like the west has already been blazing
though. Anybody got any big plans for the summer? Tours,
traveling, etc..
Question for the people out there that rock the "digital
software" like Serato. Has anyone out there tried
Torq from M-Audio? If so what is the
review on it. Trying to narrow down between Torq and
Serato. The sound pretty similar, but Torq is like $250
cheaper. Holla back if you got a personal review on Torq:

On the basketball tip, I have to say I am excited to see
LA and Boston in the finals again. It's been a long time
since
Boston
has been in the finals. Being a fan of Boston I was real
skeptical about them making it this far especially after
how they played against Atlanta, but I'm thinking they
can actually win the title. Go
Boston!!"...
Edgie
Kokoski
(WUNH-NH):
"Spent a great couple of days in Washington D.C. and
Baltimore including trips to the National Mall, a 13
inning Red Sox/Orioles marathon, and some pretty
exotic zoo animals. The thing that I found hilarious
about the zoo is the lackluster attempts to make a
natural habitat for the animals. Many of the zoo
exhibits are cluttered with sparse branches, logs,
bushes, and other assorted crap that the animals can
hide behind. I guess the zoo keepers think that this
makes them feel at home, despite the screaming kids,
camera flashes, and golf carts motoring by. Personally,
I think that the zoo should stop kidding itself and just
have the animals paraded out like a fashion show or a
police line up. Then I could sit on my can and drink
beers instead of wandering for 5 miles around the zoo
which has no straight paths whatsoever. Want to see the
monkeys? It's ten steps as the crow flies but a 70
minute walk down the winding forest path. I think that
whomever modeled the park must have been a big "Chutes &
Ladders" fan.
Most people around here are pretty psyched that the
Celtics are in the finals against the Lakers. It's a
very old rivalry that has been rekindled. It's good for
business, too. With Kobe Bryant coming to town, nearly
every hotel gift shop is sold out of pepper spray and
chastity belts.
I learned today that Trick Daddy is writing a
biography. Call me pessimistic, but I'm skeptical that
it will be an enthralling read. Based on the records
he's put out, I'm guessing that Trick Daddy will make
Jose Canseco look like Ernest frigging
Hemmingway by comparison. Look for Trick Daddy's
book holding open a loose window near you soon"...
Meddafore (Mixtapes-FL & PA): "My

Lowenstein
(WMHB-ME):
"Sorry to be out of touch the last few weeks! Finished
up finals about a week ago, and with all the moving
around I've been doing recently, things have been a
little hectic. But I'm back on the grind now, interning
in NYC this summer. So if you're in the area and want to
build, hit me so we can meet up. I'll be around through
August 5 at least, maybe longer. FYI, I'm out of a cell
phone until Sunday, so call me on the temp phone at
203-561-0808.
Nothing much to report from WMHB: summer DJs are
in place (a number of new hip-hop shows this season),
and I'll continue to serve as Urban MD until this
time next year"...
