Don Cerino on Loud Favorites

Posted in Artists, Live Performances, Other Peoples' Interviews, Videos on August 27th, 2008 by Hyphen

Hahahah. My man Don Cerino recently got featured on Loud Favorites and decided to spit some verses for random people in NYC (the Meatpacking District to be exact…definitely ‘pause‘-worthy). Not only is Don one of my favorite MC’s, but he’s hilarious too. Hit the jump to hear him talk about his background and upcoming projects. Sound Session listeners will remember hearing a joint off that Incise project a few weeks back. Fire.

“Can I Talk My Ish Again?”…’Ye in NYC

Posted in Artists, Live Performances, Videos on August 6th, 2008 by Hyphen

Yes, you can.

The #1 Human Being, Kanye West, performed at Madison Square Garden in NYC last night, and tore it down as usual.  Instead of his traditional “I’m, I’m…sky high!” rendition of “Touch The Sky,” he ended the song with a heartfelt speech to the crowd.  This is why dude is my one of my favorite people in the industry (well, that and this).  Although he’s still completely wrong about Souljah Boy being dope, he’s spot on concerning everything else.  And even when I disagree with what he says, “you gotta love it though, somebody still speak from his soul.”

Spotted at Info’s, who, according to interviews I’ve been reading to prepare for my own later on today, is public enemy #1 for an upcoming Sound Session guest.  It’s wack when two people actually doing good work in this industry filled with morons (note to email blasters) have a misunderstanding.  I’m sure it ain’t that serious though, *shrug*.

Kardinal Offishall – Dangerous (Live Clip)

Posted in Artists, Live Performances, Videos on August 3rd, 2008 by Hyphen

A little snippet of Kardinal, Solitair, and Lindo P performing “Dangerous” at a Pepsi DJ Division event in NYC a few days back.  Seeing these dudes rock live is a sight to behold.  In the interview with Kardi that I’ll post up tonight, he discusses the importance of his live show, how being raised by Jamaican parents in Toronto helped spark that energy, and a million other topics.  Get ready, this interview is a long one.  A couple more of these and I’m changing the show to Inside The Rappers Studio.

Shout to Info for the footage.
