While out in Austin for SXSW earlier this year, Jarren Benton sat down with Bootleg Kev to talk about his upcoming album My Grandma’s Basement*, his “underground” hip hop influences, his addiction to porn, how Sean Price is the most underrated rapper ever, linking with Funk Volume, R.A. the Rugged Man and more.
* I was luckily enough to receive an early copy and damn… Jarren has an incredible body of work on his hands. June 18th!

Raekwon took to Instagram earlier today to reveal that he and Jay-Z are finally getting in the studio to put in work. With Rae finishing up his F.I.L.A. album and Hov reportedly working on his next solo LP, it’s up in the air as to where the actual music will end of living. But one can hope that the final product results into some of that classic drug/crime talk. Shouts to Lenny S for making it happen.

During today’s episode of RapFix Live, Sway got Mannie Fresh on Skype to speak on Shit’s plan of bringing the Big Tymers name back with Lil Wayne and Drake instead of himself. The response? There is no Big Tymers without Mannie Fresh.
Drake is a great artist. Wayne is a great artist. But they aren’t Big Tymers. It’s like doing a Jackson 5 album with Boyz II Men.
Pretty much my thoughts exactly, minus the whole “Wayne is a great artist” thing.

Guerilla Union recently announced the official line-up to this year’s Rock the Bells festival. And while some artists come at no surprise (Wu-Tang Clan, Black Hippy, Immortal Technique, Tech N9ne, etc), a shocker came as it was revealed that there will be “original virtual performances” by both Ol’ Dirty and Eazy-E. More holograms? According to founder Chang Weisberg, the answer is no…
It's an original virtual performance, not a hologram. I never used the word hologram. There are a number of multimedia visual effects that will be applied that will definitely at the very least make the performances look like a hologram. People's minds will be blown.
Whatever the case may be, we’ll just have to wait and see on September 7-8 when the festival kick starts in San Bernardino, CA. Check the other cities/dates here and hit the jump for the full list of expected performers.

Outside of his contribution to The Black Opera’s latest jam (and the Oddisee remix), we haven’t heard much from Mayer Hawthorne as of late (unless that mysterious Tuxedo EP).

A couple weeks back, JMSN and his band locked themselves in Red Bull Studios in Los Angeles and recorded live versions of five tracks from his stellar debut, †Priscilla†.

While it's still Lakers (and Clippers for Mek) over here, I gotta give it up to the Warriors. I've thoroughly enjoyed watching that team play (all you can ask for when your team is eliminated). With the series locked up at two, Golden State heads back to San Antonio to try and steal one on the road. And thanks to Mistah F.A.B they have a new anthem to play beforehand.
