Hip-Hop Digest Show 262 – Still Naughty by Nature

Hip-Hop Digest Show 262

First off, nah, that’s not King Killa, Curt G, or e.Color on the cover of this weeks show. If you’ve been following, you’ll see the pattern. Lots of foolery to talk about this week. Curt G was off-site doing some family support for a graduation. Word up, we always support higher learning. King Killa and e.Green hold it down with some of what you always come here for. King Killa found an article (and gave credit) about 12 Moments in Hip Hop History. It wasn’t a bad one at all. Maybe it’ll jog your memory. Get in now and enjoy.

One.

Hip-Hop Digest Show 261 – Is the Sky Falling?

Hip-Hop Digest Show 261

SO, the corporations are listening huh? Dropping some of the biggest names in the rap game. Does it really make a difference? Are we/they killing the messengers and ignoring the message? What it really shows in the rap game is there is a huge gap between young heads and old heads. We discuss some of the issues. This week King Killa gives his full disclosure on Mr. 44-0, Floyd Mayweather. It might surprise you. Get in!

Must’ve been something crazy, it was down at work and at home, regardless, here’s the show! Off the break, what does losing Vibe the magazine mean to you? Did it really rep Hip Hop anyway? We comment on that and we see again that Uncle Sam is a real playa. You betta have his money! And how gangsta is the dude from the Baltimore City Detention Center? That was some movie type situation there. Anyway, there’s that and more. Get IN!

Hip-Hop Digest Show 259 – Classic Failures Continue

Hip-Hop Digest Show 259

It MUST be in the water. Rappers/MC’s from the last era seem to be hanging tooth and nail on the new wave bandwagon. Last week we heard Ice Cube and Snoop do it, this week there’s a new batch. As we always tell you, it’s not about young or old, it’s about reppin Hip Hop as a CULTURE. But is it becoming a culture of “makin’ money” or is it still about beats and rhymes? Huhhhh! We can’t help but look at the bigger picture concerning your boy Ricky Rozay. Seems he’s got a segment on him that is relentless, and it comes to question why another segment was quiet on the issue. And a special shout out to the man we call Eminem’s Atty – DJ Q for this weeks background music.

The Hip-Hop Digest Weekly Pick Hits
01.Dominique Larue – The Boulevard
02.Adullessence – Make It Shine
03.Jern – Modern Slang
04.Silent Knight – Ballot of the Wallet

Hip-Hop Digest Show 258 – 1000% Explained

Hip-Hop Digest Show 258

Sometimes in the heat of the battle, things get misunderstood. In that case, King Killa gives more detail on the “1000% support” comment after you, our listeners commented on his stance. And it’s been a while, but “Classic Failures” is back, and the “Ice Cube Exemption” itself gets examined. We feel your pain on the Snoop LYIN (as one of our twitter friends calls him). Seems there’s desperate times for older rappers trying to hang on to some sort of fountain of youth. We definitely go in on that. We take a break from the RnB Digest but that doesn’t mean the Big PR aka Hov didn’t have a little something that we had to talk about outside of Hip Hop. You know the deal, click in and listen to the show, then share it with someone who needs a dose of REAL Hip Hop talk!

Hip-Hop Digest Show 257 – Molly Ringwald

Hip-Hop Digest Show 257

Everyone’s heard about it, but in the entertainment business isn’t ANY press good press? Seems so for Officer Rick, ‘scuse us, Ricky Rosay. Dude can’t find his way out of controversy, but we’re not popping any mollies over here. And e.Green almost turns into the Incredible Hulk talking about R&B music (but only for a minute). Thanks for listening, we appreciate all of our listeners, old and new. Holla at us, let us know you’re listening. The comment section is now open!

Hip-Hop Digest Show 256 – Stacks on Your Head

Hip-Hop Digest Show 256

Is there no bottom to how low some rap IQ’s can go? Dude seriously put “bands” on a persons head ONLINE due to some social hacking? Is he going to purchase the cuffs he could be put in? King Killa asks about Mr. Timberlake and the Big PR (Jay-Z) getting a lot of run on Hip Hop blogs. It’s only being discussed here, not advertised. lol How “Authentic” is LL Cool J? That’s up for serious debate being that he’s about to go on tour with some pretty dope Hip Hop acts. And you might not believe it, but we’re all glad the Lil Dude made it through, but probably not for the reason you think. Time to hit the play button and see what we mean.

Hip-Hop Digest Show 255 – Hip Hop Reassesment

Hip-Hop Digest Show 255

This week we had to step back and consider the Dungeon Dragon’s “legacy.” We’ve made a few comments that would lead one to believe that Busta has lost it, but after looking back at his recent career, has he? Our boy DJ Q from Detroit laced us with a dope blend tape – Duck Down vs. Wu. It’s DOPE! And coming off a fresh interview with Stahhr, we realize that there’s a bunch more female MCs out there putting it down for REAL Hip Hop. Enough reading, it’s time to listen. Get in!
