Three/21 Media just premiered the new Nas video for Be A N****r Too and I really want to know what people think. This video is visually quite similar to that one part of Spike Lee’s 25th Hour with the montage of hateful words. It’s quite controversial and it’s hard not to see what Nas is trying to do, but is he successful? Does this raise awareness or is it just another video with the N-word in it?
A friend of a friend, DJ U-Tern has a great music blog (and is an incredible musician himself). One of his latest posts made my jaw drop. This is hands down the largest collection of impossible to find live hip hop recordings. Grandmaster Flash, Whiz Kid, Funky 4+1, Cold Crush, The Force MC’s, soooooo many more (I’m talking like 90,000 links).
Who knows how long the links will last – get ‘em while you can. I apologize ahead of time for the time you are going to spend at this site. You’ll find all the links after the jump!
