Lil Wayne & Rick Ross Banned From Radio? | Ask @DeadEndHipHop

LOL!

Man, who the fuck cares what those rap clowns think. I’m glad I have Dead End Hip Hop to entertain me with the foolishness that IS Rick Ross and Lil Wayne. It is shock value bullshit. That is all that it is. Want to ban them? Do it. I hope they start making better music. Personally, I’m not here to hold them accountable for SHIT. My way of holding them accountable is not listening to their music if I don’t like it.

I care less for artistic stupidity.

XXL Freshmen List 2013 | DEHH Conversation

Oh, man……….

1.) I was at the Terminal West WITH Feefo. He is right. Peeps at the A3C wasn’t feeling Kirko Bangz at that time.

2.) Chief Keef? On the list? I guess.

3.) Paying to get into this list? People actually do that? How wack is that?

4.) Schoolboy Q and Action Bronson should have been on there a while back.

5.) Of COURSE XXL is big on the tricking. Yes, they get paid for their props. It is all politics with them. We know that.

6.) This list did NOT take effort. At all. Myke C Town is correct: these lists are garbage.

Education Time: Crate Diggers

I know many of you either do, or don’t, have a true connection to the dj’ing culture. However, being who I am, this type of stuff gets me excited. Personally, this is something I love because I used to go crate digging with my best friend. He was a DJ (and still should be) and it had been on ever sense. I miss crate digging. This reconnects me to my musical past.

Above is DJ Numark (Jurassic 5). Below are others. Come cruise with me.

Watch The Wu Tang Clan’s GZA Rap About Science

Why do we get to experience the awesomeness of hearing Gza rap about science? Because the rapper is part of a new program that is encouraging New York City public schools to use hip hop as a tool to teach science. Pretty cool.
