2011 BET Hip-Hop Awards Cypher

Yelawolf, Slaughterhouse (Joe Budden, Crooked I, Joell Ortiz and Royce Da 5’9) and Eminem drop some bars over the classic Tried By Twelve by The East Flatbush Project. DJ Premo on the decks.

Dare I say Eminem is back on form!

Flashback Friday

This video footage is from shades of hip hop during the making of the n.o.r.e. album.

50 cent, Consequence, Punchline, Noreaga and Kid Carpi holding up the wall in the background. 1997... It's almost like this video captures the moment before Hip-Hop sold it's soul.

Funny to see that Fiddy has gotten slimmer while the rest of em have packed on the keys.

Dope cypher, it's great to get a glimpse behind the scenes and to get a sense of the awesome atmosphere and genuine excitement that surround Hip-Hop music at that time.
