This is an absolutely wonderful feel-good video from Ulterior Productions. This is why I love New York City, because people will just come up to an open mic and do whatever the hell they want. :)

This is old but it’s the first time I’m seeing it because Yelena just sent it over. Here’s a video from Wednesday, November 12, 2008 of the G.O.O.D. Music after party in London. Performing in this video are members of De La Soul, Mos Def, Damon Albarn, Will I Am, and Nas, with appearances by a long list of hip-hop’s finest. This was 10 minutes of straight lyrical genius. Enjoy!

1/2 Price: a dirty rapper with no legs

April 7, 2009 @ 11:36 am

I’ve been sitting on this video for a while now wondering if I should post this and I’m finally just going to go ahead and do it.

1/2 Price is a rapper that has no legs and still indulges in a traditionally over-the-top lifestyle often attributed to rappers. How he does it, I don’t know. Weird as hell, definitely NSFW. The end.
