The Roots’ tour bus was involved in a serious crash on Wednesday on their way to a Paris gig. ?uestlove blogged about the accident right after it happened, because he “just wanted to be the first celeb to twit….from an ambulance.” Glad to hear that Everyone’s OK.

These people think being racist is going to help them during a recession?

With a mix of my words, loose quotations & Mike’s own words, here’s a brief synopsis for those of you video-impaired by your jobs.
1. Talent & ambition go together.
2. Respects Soulja Boy as a businessman. Good jingle music. Traditional Southern dance songs.
3. Doesn’t like people complaining about good music not being out there. 30 year olds don’t buy rap music....

That’s right, Freaky Fridays is back snitches. And when you’ve got an OG EPMD jump-off, you need a suitably legendary girl to carry it off. Jo Guest is that girl - she’s been getting her knick knack patty wacks out for discerning gentleman’s interest magazines since you were knee high to Bushwick Bill. Thanks to our man Matt Sanders for the hook-up, thank you to the...

MTV's VMA Recap: The Assessment
In an exercise of self-flagellation, I decided to watch the entire MTV Video Music Awards last night. It was a thoroughly injudicious decision, the result of a mind driven idiotically reckless by unemployment...

This album has managed to remain on my playlist for quit some time now; this song in particular.
There are about four different versions of the track, all of which are quite stellar. But Jay’s verse on this joint propelled it into out of the atmosphere. It was pleasantly surprising to see a video for it floating around, because this is a song that needs to be heard.
The tale of success is...

"Retarded"
I didn't say it. Apparently, that's how Timbo described the two new songs he recorded with Terrance Pain III. Here is one of them, entitled "Say," so you can decide for yourself.

It’s nice when people really do Respect Our Fresh.
After I career checked Quik the other day, the homeboy Dylan from Santa Maria sent an e-mail to Gotty™, saying how he felt the love TSS gives Mr. Blake. On top of that, he took the liberty of attaching a Loosies file containing 24 miscellaneous features and productions by the Quiksta. Since I’m ‘the resident Quik fan,’...

I know most of you hear us mention artists & tapes. You read but think “Hmm…yeah, I’mma just grab this old Beatnuts & K.I.M.” I know I’ve made it a mini-mission to push certain artists, but only because I fully believe these dudes have material worth listening to. I listen to it myself. I spent the majority of Tuesday listening to Testimony Of Gemstones,...
