VIDEO: Kendrick Lamar Live From Roseland Ballroom w/ 50 Cent & A$AP Rocky

Kendrick Lamar recently hit up New York’s Roseland Ballroom to deliver two back to back classic performances.  However, the second performance came with an added special surprise from 50 Cent and A$AP Rocky.  Check out the video to see some of the highlights from the evening from BlowHipHop TV.  I’d like to point out this was the first time 50 and Kendrick performed lived “We Up”.

VIDEO: Cam’ron & Dipset Source Awards Rehearsal Circa 2003

Now I don’t know about you but this takes me back to when I first started recording music with the homies and when I was in high school.  I can remember how the influence of New York music at that time started showing in the styles on campus and just how popular Dipset was.  It was just a big time around those days for Roc-a-Fella in general.  Check out the behind the scenes footage of the whole Dipset crew practicing for their show at the Source Awards and giving a dope rehearsal for the staff and camera crew.

VIDEO: Yasiin Bey (Mos Def) & Mannie Fresh in the studio

This recording session spontaneously came about after a Big K.R.I.T. show where both rappers attended.  In the clip you can see the moment where Mannie & Mos linked up and took it to the studio that very night.  The track they are working on together in the clip is “OMFGOD”.  I’m already excited to see what comes about from this. 

Here’s part 2 below for the more in depth experience.
