All The Hip-Hop News That’s Fit To Link…

HHC Digital’s online news round-up…
By Richard Watson
Paging Jackie Chiles… Max B is looking at 75 Years in the clink for his part in a fatal armed robbery, unless his lawyer can blow the case wide open within the 30 days granted for appeal. As Wavy Crockett himself might say, Oowww.
Max probably won’t enjoy hearing Saigon’s recollections of prison life as “motherfucking agony”, although by contrast the Yardfather was in stitches re-enacting his parole hearing. In full Blue Peter mode, Sai-giddy also demonstrated how to make a bong from a bog roll – and a music video from a US flag, a bag of fireworks and a dustbin.
MC Shan joined the list of rappers spatting with Joe Budden, while DMX joined the list of former Jay-Z employees rubbishing Hov’s credentials as Def Jam head honcho. X lost respect for his boss when he started sporting thug-non-compliant flip-flops, so he probably won’t enjoy Jay’s future rhymes about dinner parties and wrought iron garden furniture. Jay also took shots from Curtis – no real surprise there, but who’d have thought Ricky Gervais would ever appear in a 50 Cent video?
In more positive news, RA the Rugged Man denounced any supposed beef with Eminem as media fabrication. Although he does believe he’s nicer. Meanwhile, Premo, Lord Finesse and friends gathered in Harlem to show love to the late great Big L, and L’s former DITC colleague Fat Joe surprised everyone with a dope, Hendrix-sampling return to form. Also flying the flag for proper hip-hop (and trout-fishing with Scarface), KRS-One, in shades of his infamous tete-a-tete with Westwood, advised XXL to give him and Buckshot a cover.
Finally, like Ghostface’s music but wish he talked more about his bulging helmet and having pubic hair on his tongue? This week he answered your prayers with a spectacularly dirty ditty dedicated to Natalie Portman. She’s charmed, we’re sure.
