If you missed the pair on 106 & Park last night, hit the jump for their interview with Terrence and Rocsi.
Just gives you a behind-the-scenes look at his remake to the classic A-Team theme song. His Super Street Fight IV TV ad was pretty sick too.
The sneaker manufacturer held their OTW Launch Party this past Friday in Los Angeles which included guests from Mr. Cartoon, Amber Rose, RZA and many more. Above is a short clip from the event.
Is Janelle Monae the saviour of mainstream Black music- let alone one of the most unique, original and fearless artists of our generation? Will we be talking about her with reverence in 20 years time? Is this the year she makes her mark on Planet Earth? If you haven’t heard her debut LP yet, it’s a vision bordering on modern classic. If you haven’t seen her live, then little can prepare you.
We sat down with the fiercely intelligently woman many believe to be a once-in-a-lifetime flesh, blood & spirit embodiment of performance artistry, to discuss such matters as:
-Why she’s still a child
-Her live performances
-Her alter-ego Cindy Mayweather…
-Androids!
-The process & intentions behind her debut LP ‘The Archandroid’
-The deeper meaning behind her trademark outfit
-Erykah Badu
-And a great deal more as we gain insight into this enigmatic woman.Also featuring live footage shot by us at her Cargo gig last November-perhaps one of the most unforgettable musical nights we’ve ever had.

Alright, so because of Diddy’s boastful rhetoric in regards to his positioning on hip-hop’s totem pole, @FoxxFiles and I commenced on the topic at hand: Is Diddy the “King of Hip-Hop?”
To that nonsense, we both came to the conclusion that he is NOT. Not taking away from his credibility as a mogul, though he’s butt fucked an artist or two or three or four or five (not literally), Diddy’s ability to remain relevant has surpassed many. And with that, we must throw the “props” rock in his direction.
However, towards the latter of the argument, Foxx made it a point to bring up some of Diddy’s most “Hip-Hop” moments and of course his remix verse to JD’s, “Welcome To Atlanta” was thrown in the bunch. Before mentioning that verse, I made it a point to assure Foxx that his verse on Waka’s “O Les Do It” not go unnoticed. I personally believe that verse single handedly brought Diddy back to life.
Whether or not he wrote the verse is still up for debate (the likely hood of him writing that shit is and will always be slim to none), but the delivery, the ambiance and the overall context of those bars was so unorthodox that they brought us ALL back to the 90′s when Puff, not Diddy was destroying shit (in his own way of course).
But then you have Diddy gallivanting around JD’s “Welcome To Atlanta” remix. Here you had a mogul who just planted his size 10 1/2 Nike in reality TV and later released his “We Invented The Remix” project to the masses so what he did on JD’s offering was just right. It was so fitting.
To make matters worse for the competition on the track, Mr. Combs did it from the top of one of the most recognizable landmarks in the WORLD: Madison Square Garden. And it all started with the smug opening of “Welcome To New York motherfuckaz where we don’t play” and concluded with a proud salute to the 2001 Twin Towers tragedy, “We still here- and we’re building four more new towers!” (Yes I know it was an ad-lib, but come on it hit home for New Yorkers)
So, with all that said I pose the question: Which one of these remixes was Diddy’s proudest hip-hop moment?
Sidebar: Ain’t a shame it took to ATL smash hits for Diddy to show his ass? Nuttin against ATL of course, but I just find that extremely funny and odd in the same breath!
