Nas – Represent (Video)
Nas’ debut, “Illmatic,” dropped when I was 10 years old. I wasn’t old enough to REALLY appreciate music yet, so that album flew right over my head and I didn’t really appreciate it until I was in high school. During my high school years, the DJ Premier produced “Represent” was DEFINITELY one of my favorites off the album. 20 years later, it FINALLY has a video.

Common x The Combat Jack Show (Audio)
90 minutes wasn’t enough time. On the eve of releasing his tenth album ‘Nobody’s Smiling’, Common revisits his days growing up in Chicago, being inspired by Michael Jordan, house music, Chicago mayor Harold Washington, Rev. Jeremiah Wright and how this album addresses the current plight of black on black crime in the windy city. Also, what it means to reunite with No I.D., being haunted by the ghost of Emmett Til and the very real and deep mystical powers of the phenomena known as “Badu Box”. So much wasn’t covered, 90 minutes wasn’t enough, but you won’t hear this type of Common interview anywhere else on the planet.
