Another nice interview with the legend. The Cormega part starts about an hour in, giving us even more depth than what we brought you some months ago.

So, I guess Narduwar is done for now. This is the pinnacle. He can not reach any higher.
I mean, what artist on God’s great earth is still left for him to interview?
Oh, wait… our comrades in the youtube fox holes help us with this one:

The internet has failed us thus far by not providing a comprehensive Husalah-does-various-activities-tumblr or something.

Thirstin is not one of my favorite rappers, but definitely one of my favorite people in hiphop.
I have no idea what this is a trailer for (movie, music video, or something else?), but basically, everything the man does deserves more attention.

Kaka kör sitt styltiga flow med sådan känsla. Och över en sampling av denna sort kan det inte bli annat än en mindre klassiker…
> Kakka Byn Block – För många tårar som rinner
Men jag tror jag blir knäpp – var fan har den där loopen använts för?

Without a doubt the most creative rap crew out there, Green Ova just keep dishing out different flavors.
Video directer Tim Jieh did great work on this one.

Snooza inte på dessa skrockiga feel good-raps; lite som Just D kanske, men godartat.
Skizz från Stockholmssyndromet langar vers och beat.

STHLM Inkasso – Fel klientel (LL.Cool.Boleslav – Ace of Blaze Remix) by Gökbot
Det är väldigt sällan remixar funkar. Men det här är den andra från Fel Klientel som slår orginalet på fingrarna.
OK, Ondas beat till titelspåret kanske är snäppet tyngre. Men här lägger man ner en helt annan vibe – vilket är grundläggande för vilken lyckad remix som helst.

American producers copying dead European trends is not a good look. Especially when you do it in a cold, technical manner, not bettering the style, nor understanding what actually makes dubstep enjoyable at times.
What makes rap music survive and stand strong is words and how you twist them around in all kinds of manners. Something ASAP Mob don’t seem very interested in. Tellingly, the only good rapping on their new tape comes from Detroit, Miami and Washington DC.
How many punchlines over throw back beats will Action Bronson and eXquire spit before everyone realize that they got their million dollar deals through nostalgia-tinted New York bias, and nothing else…
Mobb Deep should have handled their differences ten years ago. Or kept it on the down low. Now they make their city look weak and unintelligent.
What happened with kids of this pedigree anyway?
Some fans put their faith in that Joey kid. He’s not Bad, though… he’s a$$.
The last song from New York that had official rapping on it, and wasn’t over a throwback beat? I can’t recall. Probably from before they caged the wave. Max B rotting in prison because he only could afford a public defender? Que vergonha… With the truth behind bars, or sleeping in coffins, who will now make sure the core of the big apple don’t rot?
Surely not these non-rapping ASAP rappers…

Aldrig riktigt pumpat denna snubbe, men det här bara porlar fram som vattnet i en bäck. Video looks good, too.
Behövde det här för att återfå tron på dagens New York, efter att ha lyssnat igenom Lords Never Worry (de enda minnesvärda verserna på det tapet kommer från Detroit, Washington DC och Miami).
