Friday, August 28th, 2009

On the rooftop of his record label’s Manhattan offices Raekwon the Chef spit some of the classics and some of the new hot shit from the Only Built 4 Cuban Linx 2 project.

As the sun was setting the sky in the background became purple. I think that was Ol’ Dirty blessing this project that appears to be re-uniting the Wu.

Wu-Tang is 4ever.

Video: Jay-Z Wants To ‘Leave A Footprint’ In Hollywood

Friday, August 28th, 2009

via MTV Mixtape Daily:

“Hollywood” isn’t just the name of a Jay-Z song — Hov still wants to get into the movie biz. Before he retired for the first time about six years ago, Jay said one of the things he wanted to focus on after rapping was making movies. Well, obviously even when he was in “retirement,” Jay never stopped rapping — it’s in the man’s DNA. Still, the Jiggaman told us he hasn’t given up laying down a blueprint for success in Tinseltown.

“I do. I do,” Jay insisted about whether he still wants to make movies in the future. “I’m taking my time. It may seem like it’s taking forever, but when I do, it’s gonna be something added to the genre. I just don’t wanna do a couple movies and be gone. I want it to be something that’s really important, so I’m taking my time with it. Hopefully when I arrive [in Hollywood], I can leave a footprint.”

After the jump, The 1515 Boys debate over the best verse on “Forever.”
