.

The Pharcyde. I dunno why this video had a different version for Amsterdam. Definitely more of an artsy vibe, and the weed references Imani spits in the second verse are fitting. Dope track by an underrated band.

BMW Gran Coupe

This car is sex on wheels. Every time I watch this I need a change of pants and a cigarette. And it's not slated to release for at least a few years, plenty of time for me to sell my screenplay to Hollywood and/or run a small pyramid scheme sales team selling earthquake insurance door-to-door and collect my millions. Muahahaha!

Can't Knock the Hustle


I gotta say, no rapper has been able to stand the test of time and stay relevant throughout the evolution of hip-hop like Jay-Z has. Even in today's watered down hip-hop landscape with auto-tuning in full effect, lyricism taking a backseat to "swagger" and style, and a fan base that thinks old school music is Dipset's first album, he somehow manages to mould. adapt, and deliver with the changing times. Call me sentimental but there is just something about Jay's lyrical talent on his few couple albums that really outshines the rest. Not knocking the new stuff for what its worth, and Jay would be the first to tell me "niggas want my old shit, buy my old albums", so it's clearly something he understands. He can't give us that hardcore lyrical flow anymore, not for lack of talent, but because that's not what the game is demanding anymore and Jay has always been a smart businessman. So I definitely can't knock the hustle, but listening to this track I really wish he would bless us old school heads with some of that lyricism just for old times sake.
"My pops knew exactly what he did when he made me
Tried to get a nut and he got a nut and what
Straight bananas; can a nigga, see me?
Got the US Open, advantage Jigga
Serve like Sampras, play fake a rappers like a campus
Le Tigre, son you're too eager" HOV!

Come around my way

Come around my way by Ill and Al Skratch. These dudes were tight, too bad they fell off the rap scene. I wonder where they're at now. Anyways, they definitely had a classic with this one. 16 years later and this beat still gets sampled time and time again by the new wave of hip-hop artists, but none of them seemed to right it as smooth as these two.

Put your money where your mouth is

3M is so sure their security glass can stand up to the test they decided to put their money up...literally! Stacks of money, encased in 3M's security glass and situated in populated urban centres for the public to amuse over. Apparently there was a security guard present to ensure no one took any money in the instant someone did break it (presumably with C4 or, in the case of Chuck Norris, by looking at it). Really clever bit of marketing nonetheless.
