D.L. Chandler — Mon, 21 May 2012 20:49:10 +0000

There is no doubt to ~~some~~ most that if Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace were alive today, his crisp baritone flow would still be intact and potent as ever. In honor of Biggie's 40^th birthday today, Hip-Hop Wired has compiled a list of so-called “old fogies” age 40 and over in the young man's sport of Hip-Hop that still smash microphones on the regular.

You young whipper snapper rappers will be blessed to get a fraction of their longevity. Here are 10 rappers in the 40 and over club that still got the glow*.

2 Chainz, Wiz Khalifa, Mac Miller, Missy Elliot Round Up Rock The Bells 2012 Lineup

Argenys Collado — Wed, 16 May 2012 13:37:37 +0000

Music Festivals are the new snapbacks, they're cool until you can't turn a corner without seeing one of them pop up. This years Rock The Bells will feature a who's who of today's headlines and rising stars such as Wiz Khalifa, Kendrick Lamar, A$AP Rocky, 2 Chainz and rounded out with dependable reoccurring sets like Nas, Dipset, Slick Rick, Too $hort, and Methon Man & Redman. There are a lot of question marks surrounding this years lineup; What will Cam'Ron and Nas do when they see each other?, Kendrick Lamar + Schoolboy Q + Ab-Soul + Jay Rock finally make a mark with Black Hippie?, will KiD CuDi reprise his WZRD act?, Wiz Khalifa bring out Amber Rose?, Mac Miller outshine everyone? (Crowds respond to him, don't hate), but what is sure to steal the show is the return of Missy Elliot, accompanied by partner in crime producer Timbaland.

Bone Thugs n Harmony, who seem to be re-energized with the return of all 5 original members and a new album on the way. The group will be performing their 'E 1999 Eternal' album, in its entirety.

Which act are you largely excited to for?

Redman ft. Ready Roc - "Sour Deezal" [VIDEO] & "Ironman" [LISTEN/DOWNLOAD]

Alvin aqua Blanco — Sun, 29 Apr 2012 14:48:17 +0000

Redman kicking rhymes in a cheeba farm. True story. That's the concept for Funk Doctor Spot's video for "Sour Deezal," featuring his Gilla House cronie Ready Roc. The instrumental they hijack is The Throne's "No Church for the Wild," in case you haven't been paying attention the last half a year or so.

How is Redman still a free agent (he isn't on Def Jam's roster), though? Also, Gilla House (Redman, Ready Roc & Runt Dawg) just dropped a cut called "Ironman" that you can listen to and download on the next page. Watch the clip for "Sour Deezal" below.

REALITY RAP: 10 OF YOUR FAVORITE REALITY SHOWS…IF THEY STARRED RAPPERS

C. Vernon Coleman II — Sat, 30 Jul 2011 14:54:37 +0000

The reality show craze has gotten out of hand. What started as an innovative new medium for the old boob tube has become one of the most annoying niches in home entertainment.

So we gave the reality show game a little Hip-Hop boost. We flipped 10 reality show scripts and installed rappers in place of the no name people that you didn't give two craps about before they were on TV.

Because anything is better than watching house wives who aren't even house wives, right?
