Over 10 years have passed since Jay-Z recorded and released “Big Pimpin'”, the 1999 single that solidified Jay-Z’s superstar status.
Hip Hop has taken a bad rap. Mostly because the labels and the media choose to only promote the most negative music to make money. Still Hip Hop has a long history of positive uplifting songs. Here’s my Top 9. 9. Ed O G And The Bulldogs Be A Father To Your Child. Dope ode […]
Though her appearances during the Rock The Bells tour were met with mixed reactions from both critics and fans alike, Lauryn Hill is pushing on.
Lauryn Hill spoke with MTV about the “free-form” style of her Rock The Bells performance in NY this past weekend.
