Ok so… it seems like The Throne is determined to defeat their own record of playing “Ni**as in Paris” in a row on each tour date. Last night in Chicago, the duo performed the Hit-Boy-produced track eight times in a row. You can watch them perform NIP seven times here, if you’d like. There’s about 10 days left, depending one which of the three LA dates you will be attending, and by the time Jay-Z and Kanye West perform, will we be listening to “Ni**as In Paris” 12 times? If so, I’ll have my camera handy.

In 2007, Kanye West was supposed to perform “Stronger” in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show but never did due to his mother’s passing. Four years later, Mr. West finally performs “Stronger” on the VS stage along with the angels.

They should have played it 8 times on live TV.

Ye’ brings out Fergi. Dope performance.
Kanye performs “Stronger,” then Jay comes out and you got white people dancing to “Niggas In Paris”. It gets no better.
Rolling Stone gets the exclusive album stream of G.O.O.D. Music artist Pusha T‘s Fear of God II: Let Us Pray. The sequel to Pusha’s latest mixtape, Fear of God, which dropped earlier this year, has features from Kanye West, Tyler, the Creator, Young Jeezy, Rick Ross, Juicy J and more. Check out the rest of Rolling Stone’s interview with Pusha T and stream the album below. Fear of God II: Let Us Pray drops tomorrow!
Fear of God 2 builds pretty naturally on the mixtape you put out earlier this year. What was your goal for the follow-up?
My goal was actually just to put the body of work together. The new record was going to be just things that I leaked to the Internet, but I figured that the fans should get it in a better way, rather than just having to download the whole record from off of HulkShare. This is just street music. It’s for the street, it’s for the fans. As soon as the records are done, I usually just give them out anyway, to keep the energy and the intensity going.
My full-length album is coming out at the top of the year and up until then, I feel like people should just hear music, hear me, hear me with my peers, people that they respect. And it’s my solo project. In the Clipse, we were always snobby in regards to working with other people. People never really heard us with a slew of other features. I took this opportunity to give the fans the opportunity to hear me with some of their favorite artists, favorite rappers and new guys coming up, and people who have a presence in different genres of hip-hop.

The black dude that works at Comme des Garcon in NY has been on his skirt shit for a long time. Everyone thought he was weird, it’s cool now though.
This is pretty dope. If you have some time to kill, watch this. If you couldn’t tell by the title, it’s about Electro. Talks about Hip-Hop a bit too.
