Video: JumpOff TV Lounge Crew: Has Nicki Minaj Made It Easier For Female MC’s To Get A Deal?

July 19, 2011 |  by  |  JUMPOFF TV LOUNGE CREW  |  No Comments  |  Share  | 

You can bet your ASS Nicki Minaj has made it easier for female MC’s to be the focus of attention. However, it’s up to the labels and suits to decide whether they’re going to duplicate the imagery and content of Nicki Minaj or go left with it and find someone the exact OPPOSITE of the Queens native. Regardless of WHAT they do, more doors have been opened because of her. Don’t believe me, I’ll let Nitty Scott, MC explain it to you in the clip above during our WONDERFUL JumpOff TV Lounge Crew debates.

Drake: “I’m Excited About Kreayshawn, That’s My Dog.”

Welp, Drake has officially co-signed Columbia Records’ newest golden egg Kreayshawn. While Kreayshawn was sitting with DJ Green Lantern and Boss Lady (whad up, Hollywood), Sherbert interrupted the interview to give his two cents on the Youtube wonder and how they first connected.

If things go according to plan, we’ll probably hear a collaboration from both of them in the near future. Sigh.  But BUMP all that, Sherbert also mentioned he was mixing the first single with 40 from Take Care before he hopped on the phone for the impromptu interview. Nigga better not be singing bout heartbreaks and milkshakes or I’ll be PISSED! Listen to the interview, below!

If you follow Wale on Twitter, you’re pretty observant to the fact that this guy has a chip on his shoulder. And to be fair, a lot of us do. But when it comes to the D.C. native, he makes SURE you know it’s their. The homey Culture VI, an outspoken individual in the hip-hop community decided to explore this explosive chip on Wale’s shoulder.

What first started out as a “Twitter Beef” turned into an intelligent discussion about why Wale possess this chip, his debut album Attention Deficit, what he perceives as interesting, how people view him and much much more. After the jump, you can find an excerpt from the interview where Wale talks about his contributions to Self Made and his lyrical content as well the audio from the first 10 minutes as well as links to the entire pow wow between Wale and Culture VI.

Mixtape: Mick Boogie presents Excursions: A Tribe Called Quest

mick boogie tribe called quest mixtape

Have you checked the Tribe Called Quest documentary Beats, Rhymes, And Life yet? The flick is a MUCH watch for hip-hop heads and should be required viewing for any new jack rappers in ’11. The homie Mick Boogie caught the flick and was so inspired he went in on a new mixtape. From Mick:

A Tribe Called Quest is one of my favorite groups of all time… in any genre of music. After seeing Michael Rapaport’s amazing documentary on the group, I felt inspired to put together a mix and this is the end result. This is NOT a greatest hits mix. This mix is for the true Tribe fans only… the die-hards who know every lyric and remember every interlude. I thought it would be cool to basically create the “lost” Tribe album… with all the rare songs, demos, limited-edition remixes, and collaborations you may have missed over the years. I hope when you enjoy this as much as I do, and hear some things you have never heard before. Special thank you to UNDRCRWN for the amazing artwork. Long live A Tribe Called Quest!
