PMTV: FRESH AIR TOUR 2009 (w/ EVIDENCE x BROTHER ALI)



On November 8th, some of the PM-LIVE.COM team and I headed down to The Paradise Rock Club in Boston to catch Brother Ali, Evidence, Toki Wright & BK_ONE at the Fresh Air Tour.

The show was amazing, but the interview was beyond that, in my opinion. We had endless footage that covered a wide range of topics and we weren't able to put everything into this clip. Hopefully, in the coming weeks, we'll be able to share the rest of it in segments, but for now, enjoy this video.

We love those : )

THROWBACK THURSDAY: "COBRA CLUTCH" - GHOSTFACE KILLAH



I'm "pre-gaming" with this week's Throwback Thursday entry. I'm very excited to be hitting the Ghostface show this Friday in Boston. Aside from RZA, he is def. my favorite Wu-Tang member. The way he tells stories is crazy... I think he is one of the most consistent emcees in hip hop. Period.

Enjoy!!

THROWBACK THURSDAY: "ALL THAT I GOT IS YOU" - GHOSTFACE KILLAH



This may be one of the first songs of Ghost's that I really fell in LOVE with. If you don't feel the realness in the lyrics of this songs, check your pulse. #truthfully.

"Things was deep, my whole youth was sharper than cleats
Two brothers with muscular dystrophy, it killed me
But I remember this, mom's would lick her finger tips
To wipe the cold out my eye before school wit her spit
Case worker had her runnin back to face to face
I caught a case, housin tried to throw us out of our place
Sometimes I look up at the stars and analyze the sky
And ask myself was I meant to be here... why?"

THROWBACK THURSDAY: "CAMAY" - GHOSTFACE KILLAH




"Your complexion, gives a reflection of...sometimes a black woman just needs to be loved"

THROWBACK THURSDAY: "CHERCEZ LA GHOST" - GHOSTFACE KILLAH



This song is a classic.

That.Is.All

EMILIO ROJAS - PIANO BOUNCE, PRODUCED BY GREEN LANTERN [LEAK]



I present to you the latest leak off of Mr. Rojas' upcoming release, The Natural. Produced by Green Lantern, artwork done by Shake of 2DopeBoyz. I'm feeling this track, although Bold & Arrogant is my sh*t!

At this point, the verses below are my favorite. Download the track, share it with your people and ready yourselves for The Natural.

My fav. few lines from this track -

...self absorbed like a sponge and plus I'm cleaning up ya'll messes There ain't a question of who's next in line...I ain't chasing shit, I will never be a step behind, I ain't feelin nothing, you can say that I'm desensitized...

THROWBACK THURSDAY: "JUST KICKIN IT" - XSCAPE




I have to admit it...I've been leaving sooooooooooooooo many classic songs out of my Throwback Thursday postings.

I'm showing all kinds of love to hip hop and totally failing to include many of the R&B songs that I was wearing OUT.

This video / song by Xscape is a classic. We may most recently recognize Tiny as being TI's wifey and Kandi from The Real Housewives of Atlanta...but they both were members of this group far before reality tv existed.

Enjoy!!

THROWBACK THURSDAY: "THEY DON'T KNOW" - JON B


Jon B...

Don't hate on it cause you KNOW you loved this song too...haha

THROWBACK THURSDAY: "4 PAGE LETTER" - AALIYAH


Aaliyah had HITS. 4 Page Letter was the SONG...

It's hard to believe that 8 years has passed since her death. Luckily, good music is eternal.

Enjoy.
