In the future, 5th Sequence will also only travel by segway

New/Old Blu Track?

Don't be mad that Blu shits on all opposition... Here's something that Theo London released where Blu goes in over Theo's latest single... This is definately Phat Root Radio Approved... And if you haven't you need to get Blu's GodLeeBarnesEP! Like... Last week...

Man, Young Guru is right on point with this. This is an essential watch for anyone attempting a real career in the music industry.

Grap Luva - SP1200 Beats - LOVELY !!

I want an SP1200 SO BAD...  w\And watching this makes me want to get a job again.  I mean an SP1200 would be worth working for, but in the meantime i'll suffice watching the greats master their trade.
