Diddy unearths G-muthafu*kin-Dep

I can't believe it, Diddy brought this guy up from under the ground. Where has he been? If you aren't familiar with the name, check the vid for songs ('Special Delivery' and 'Let's Get It')



I never really got how Diddy spoke over the intro for a whole minute! Look how lost G-Dep's looking whilst he waits for the drop. Wouldn't be surprised if they cut the vid because he missed it.

G Dep was one of my favourite rapper them times; his flow was awesome. Most of the lyrics didn't make sense, but it sounded fly as anything! Bad Boy had a bit of a roster post BIG and Mase at the top end of the 90s; G Dep, Black Rob, Shyne and Loon were all firing.

Shouts to Tim Westwood. Days when 56k + Napster were all we had meant downloading mixtapes for fresh music was a no go. Standard 15mins for one solitary 192 bit rate song at 4kbps (kilo bytes per second), 5 kbps was a God send. MixTAPES on TDK, pausing before the DJ spoke etc. was regular occurance. Copying songs you downloaded on CD were for the rich kids.

Who remembers the Harlem Shake though? Not gonna lie, I never fully caught it but I rated it highly.

Marvin Sparks x Raekwon interview

Wu-Tang's in-house "Chef" better known as Raekwon proved he is still a force to be mentioned alongside the hottest rappers in the hip hop game with the release of Only Built For Cuban Linx... pt. II - sequel to his 1995 debut album. Marvin Sparks caught up with the hip hop legend to discuss rapping for drug dealers, people caring "more about stats than raps", his inclusion in MTV's Top 10 Hottest Rappers list, and converting to Islam. Marvin Sparks: It has been almost fifteen years since the first Only Built For Cuban Linx, an album that was a 5-mic classic when The Source magazine held weight. Why did you decide make a sequel?

Why Cheetah Woods, whhyyyy?!?!?!

We must all know about the predator nyamin woman (no bowcat reference intended - or am I lying? *shudders*). Anyone heard the voicemail he left for the girl he's been PARrin (there was a golf reference there) his wife with? Easy now my selekta as we rinse some tunes for di one name Tiger. Man like him doesn't know how to play. (By The Endz not Ruff Sqwad) How you gonna leave a voicemail for a girl with your real name at the beginning? Do you want to be held to ransom? Man from 'the ends' know (in the words of Kano) "That's slippin'!" And when isht hits the fan (like it has) he's buggered. Not something I deal in but surely the point of cheating is for an assortment of ladies. All his ones look the same; blonde, no breast nor batty.

Remember When Riddims Were King

Before you read, thank you for your interest and hope you enjoy. I actually fleshed it out into a book. You can get your copy from www.nolongstories.com   Now for what you came here for... When Riddims Were King 23rd May 2020 will be remembered in history for one of the most epic events in one of our universe's darkest times. We will never forget the night dancehall kings and former extremely heated rivals, Beenie Man and Bounty Killer, battled on the Verzuz platform built by hall-of-fame producers, Timbaland and Swizz Beatz. An unfiltered, 360-degree view on Jamaican dancehall events was showcased; DJ’s and dancing (Beenie Man’s daughter Desha Ravers) to deejay’s clashing on the same riddims. The latter elements provided the jewels in the night’s highlight reel, and undoubtedly the best thing to happen on the Verzuz series. Word spread like guava jelly within the dancehall community and Jamaican diaspora upon announcement. Not only was it a clash between the longest and fier
