Creative and ingenious, this is hip hop.

All this time we thought Erick Sermon was the gay rapper (we are still suspicious for the record) but it turns out it is actually Afrika Baby Bam of the Jungle Brothers, and boy did he ever come out of the closet. It seems like he has wanted to for a minute because this is a significant transformation.

***UPDATE*** Check out this interview on AllHipHop where Batty Bam is talking a ton of wild shit.

His mind must be very strong because he’s been with Erykah for a minute and he’s not wearing dashikis yet (*cough cough* Common, *cough cough* Andre 3000). Anyways, get familiar with this man because he is the future of hip-hop, as we predicted in our Top 5 newcomers last year on the Real Freq awards. This man and Skyzoo are breath of fresh air in today’s lackluster industry. On a different note, whats up with Erykah, she can look so damn good sometimes (that ass is so hip-hop!) and look horrible at other times (looking like an indian in this video). Shout out to Vimby for this video.

Thanks to Write Just Films for this highlight package of our anniversary party. In the midst of one of the worst winter storms everyone trooped it out an represented. Check the Arcee drunken interviews.

New video from the Kid Famous “4th Biggest City”. Oh you didn’t know? He raps now. Hey, where’s our cameo????

I don’t know who was worse, Baron or that other wack dude. I’ll have to say the other dude, seeing as Baron ins’t a rapper first. But come on Baron, how you gonna be “the sickest dude rappin’ in the NBA” with rhymes like “86 Broham, yeah thats my bro, man” or “I’m an 80′s baby, from the 80′s, baby”. With this being said, who do you think is the best (or least terrible) rapper in the NBA?

a) Allen Iverson (remember “40 Bars”)
b) Kobe (had that joint w/ 50 Cent)
c) Troy Hudson
d) Ron Artest

Mos is hilarious, he definitely wants his own show on some Chapelle shit. LOL at his comments on Rogers Clemens, a little rough around the edges, but he does have a point in that these issues are much less serious than umm lets say world hunger. His comments on Bush are hilarious too (“He went to Australia and called them Austrians”). Definitely dope to see him promoting Too Black Guys (TBG), whose founder, Adrian Aitcheson, was on our show not too long ago (check the archives). We got a little sneek peak at the line and its definitely hot shit.

ummmmm, heat.

M.O.P.
