Everything's better with The Roots, everything, including a live Nas performance (who can often be disappointing live). God's Son tore through a live rendition of his "Nasty" single on Jimmy Fallon last night, which came complete with Fallon announcing a new album from Nasty Nas will drop this year. See more...
I'm gonna go ahead and ruin the ending to this one for you. While this starts as just your usual big booty model - in this case MBOW vet Kyra Chaos - dancing in her room video, it ends with Drake essentially declaring, "Go ahead and make fun of my sweaters, but just remember, I'm fucking the models you only get to see on video."

I didn't get the memo but apparently Big Sean's "Woah dere" has replaced "pause" as the new saying for occurrences demonstrating questionable masculinity. To better showcase this the dudes who released the "Shit Drake Says" video put together another hilarious, Hip-Hop inspired video centered around Big Sean's catchphrase. See more...
HOT 97's Angie Martinez played the role of Hip-Hop Oprah Winfrey this week as she set up a surprise, on-air meet and greet between rappers A$AP Rocky and Rakim. A$AP shared the story of his mother getting Rakim, who A$AP is named after, to sign his autograph on a $5 dollar bill and some pampers. If this isn't a heart-warming, Hip-Hop story then I don't know what else is. See more...
It sure must be nice being pals with Dr. Dre. In honor of Rick Ross' birthday Dre gifted the rapper with a $100,000 watch. Yes, you read that right folks a watch that costs as much as a modest home. I'm also willing to put money on the fact that Dr. Dre was probably the only one to bring a gift. See more...
That awkward moment when the music video for your remixed song is better than the music video for your original song. There isn't anything spectacular about the "Strange Clouds Remix" music video, but since I wasn't all that impressed with the video for the original song this is definitely a step up. See more...
Blake Griffin isn't the best dunker of all time, but he is the most vicious. He's like a linebacker with a vertical - one of these days he might literally paralyze a defender foolishly trying to block his dunk. So while yes, Blake Griffin stole Kendrick Perkins manhood last night, Perkins can take solace in the fact that it could have been worse. See more...
To be one of the most talked about rappers right now I'm really surprised to hear that 2 Chainz' beverage of choice is water and that he sleeps with a cup of ice next to his bed. How exciting is that? Well, there is a handgun next to that cup of ice so I guess that does up the excitement factor a bit. See more...
D'Angelo's "Voodoo" was the best R&B/soul album of the 2000s, it's not even really a debate. So watching the man go from this to this was excruciatingly painful, except now there's hope! Sure, D'Angelo's first performance in years featured very little of the man actually singing, and it took place in Sweden, but still....
There may be no more entertaining interview than Mobb Deep's Prodigy, the man just doesn't know how to give anything less than a completely honest answer. For instance, in this XXL clip it turns out that Prodigy both has no idea how many albums he's made. See more...
