Nicki recalls a time when the tour bus broke down and everyone tried to get her to drink. She doesn’t drink so it took Drake giving her $100 for her to finally do it. After three shots, she passed out.
After the jump, Rhymefest reminisces on when Q-Tip almost had him kicked off an ATCQ tour after telling his mother how much he killed it.
It seems like Funkmaster Flex has a bit of a soft spot for Lil WayneIf you partake regurarly in the online constituent of the hip-hop culture, youd notice Hot 97s Funkmaster Flex steers clear of it. And not because he has a habit of saying the wrong thing(s), it seems like (imo) its just not his cup of tea. Think about it, when was the last time you saw Flex on your favorite blog?
Well, last week I had the pleasure in kicking it with Flex during a meet and greet/pow wow session for the revealing of his new customized Ford Taurus SHO. After touching on the differences between the automotive industry and the music industry, I thought it would be interesting to see where Flexs head was at in regards to the current state of hip-hop. Out of left field, Flex went in (insert HOT 97 explosion here).
I found Flexs perspective very intriguing. However, Ill tuck that in the holster and reveal it later this week. What I found even more interesting is Flexs positive and even remorseful rant towards Dwayne Carter.
Based on our conversation prior, I could see exactly where his Weezy commentary derived from. It just shocked me he was so open with his admission. And to be quite honest, I agree with him 86%. At times, as a culture, we do expect A LOT from Lil Wayne. -LowKey
Today, November 2nd, is my doggie Y-O’s born day, make sure you wish him a happy happy on twitter. The Inglewood duo is currently on tour (dates can be seen here), so he already got his gift, dont go hard on the Patron fam.
Jeah, the Lakers got their asses handed to them AT HOME on Friday when they played the Mavs, so anyone with half a brain knew that they were gonna go IN on the Hawks, and thats just what they did. Kobe had 41 points on 15-29 shooting. It marked the 97 time that he’s gone for 40 in a game, and knowing Kobe, it certainly wont be the last time.

The amazing lineup is as follows:
XO (Studio 43) -
XO is an emcees emcee who has come to be one of the dominating forces of Washington, DC’s rising hip hop scene. As 1/3 of the Diamond District with Oddisee and YU, he’s on the tongues of national and international underground hip hop tastemakers with a stellar new album. As a solo act, his “Crabs in the Barrel” is an anthemic track that in many ways defines the “All Killer” concept. He’s going to leave every ear on November 5th just a bit more open, accepting and overwhelmed by the quality coming from DC.
James Nasty
If there was ever a man who’d be the first person to play club music on the moon, it would be this producer and DJ. A DC native, James Nasty is a believer in the healing effects of classic Baltimore club music. Having played the My Crew Be Unruly party this year w/ on again off again collaborator in the 1.21 Jiggawatt Soundsystem, Andrew Jaye, and having released a new EP of Baltimore Club tracks, “Good Times,” James is on the cusp of much bigger things. With a style reminiscent of legendary B-more selectors Rod Lee, Diamond K and KW Griff, he overwhelms partygoers with effusive glee through music. James just doesn’t stay in the club though, he drops the hottest in top 40 as well with equal talent and adeptness.
Andrew Jaye (12 LB Sound)
Andrew Jaye is a kingpin selector. With an encyclopedic knowledge of all music, dancing to Andrew Jaye is like dancing to the illest jukebox you’ve ever encountered. With James Nasty, he spun a set at My Crew Be Unruly in Baltimore this summer that made everyone in attendance believe that the four horsemen of the apocalypse were coming, and that club music would save the day. But he’s so much deeper than that. it will be a joy and pleasure to have him in attendance.
Adam Gonzo (Served/Tensday, Baltimore) -
He’s the Best DJ in a Club in Baltimore as judged by the Baltimore City Paper for 2008. He’s a former hip hop DJ who came to Baltimore and fell in love with club music. Besides that, he spins at his Served party monthly in Baltimore at the Wind Up Space, one of the better parties in a city known for knowing how to get down. His most recent mix, “Black Man in the White House,” (http://www.divshare.com/download/7623339-9e8) is an absolute joy to hear, and shows his distinctive soulful style quite well. Adam Gonzo will leave you in awe.
Phil Real (Lazuh Beam/University of Maryland – College Park) -
Phil Real is the future of the DC party scene. THE It selector, along with partner DJ Soohan at UMD, Phil Real has shown the talent and dedication to steadily improving his style and game and is set with this event to begin a stratospheric rise. With a populist style blending the hits of electro, hip hop, dubstep and whatever strikes his fancy, if you don’t catch his opening set, you’ll hate yourself for “not being there when” Phil has his coming out in the DMV.
