Hip Hop Culture Center wants to inform all rappers that there will be an extra day added to scheduled audition dates. Today and Thursday, April 24th will be the last days to audition for the Rapathon. As you know last year we got over 100 emcees to perform, at this time we are only 30 rappers short so we ask that you spread the word. Please notify friends, family, and co-workers who would be interested in showcasing their talent. For people who are creating their own teams, all members must audition in order to participate. Newsflash whoever is the hottest, strongest, best performer at the Rapathon will have their own video shot, produced, and directed by Ralph McDaniel’s and it will premiere on Video Music Box.

Visvim Kiefer Hi Patala
A new series of features are embedded in the newest Kiefers, known as the "Patala". Colors on the domestic versions are always subtle but there have some brighter insertions as you can see on the heel cap of the dark green model and on these really cool front zips. We've seen the side apertures on the Masterpiece collabos, later borrowed by Cause and even Wings & Horns, but Visvim is using their own original idea for this release. It's a definite hit, and though brightly colored, it is revealed mainly to the wearer exclusively, since the zip is camouflaged by the laces. The toe cap is an EVA pylon material, and the vulcanized overall structure of the shoe provides lightweight and comfort technology.
Being that Imnot to familar with this brand I got this whole post from Hypebeast but Im gonna try do way more orginal posts
Ok now Im getting real Fucking Mad :Kanye West

R.I.P J Dilla : Producer of the week ( Exclusive)
I usually get my info from wiki but todays case I gotta write my own post. Honestly this should have been the first producer of the week but I want to pay my respect to the none other Godfather of "BackPack Rap " J Dilla . Dilla is to us "BackPackers" what Dre is to gangster music. to be honest being that i was young and dumb I did not take adavatage of Dilla's music while he was alive but still I recognize the importance of such a man especailly one who was still doing beats on his Death bed
So I would just leave yall with the rest of the info from wiki but i justed to show my respect
James Dewitt Yancey (February 7, 1974–February 10, 2006), better known as J Dilla or Jay Dee, was an acclaimed hip-Hop producer who emerged from the mid-1990s underground Hip-Hop scene in Detroit, Michigan. He began his career as a member of the group Slum Village, and was also a driving force in the production trio The Ummah. Yancey started his career under the name Jay Dee (based on his initials) but used the name J Dilla from 2001 onward. Many critics believe J Dilla's work to have had a major influence on his peers[1] and that he embodied the neo soul sound, playing a defining yet understated role during the sub-genre's rise (roughly from the mid-90s to the early 2000s). J Dilla was often dubbed "your favorite producer's favorite producer," and was highly regarded by mainstream artists and producers such as Common, Kanye West, A Tribe Called Quest, Just Blaze, Busta Rhymes, Pharrell Williams, Madlib, The Pharcyde, Slum Village and ?uestlove.
In 1992, he met experienced Detroit musician Amp Fiddler, who was impressed by what Jay Dee was able to accomplish with such limited tools. Amp Fiddler let Jay Dee use his MPC, which he learned quite quickly. In 1995, Jay Dee and MC Phat Kat formed 1st Down, and would be the first Detroit hip hop group to sign with a major label (Payday Records) - a deal that was ended after one single when the label folded. That same year he recorded The Album That Time Forgot with 5 Elementz (a group consisting of the late Proof, Thyme and Mudd).
By the mid 1990s Jay Dee was known as a major hip-hop prospect, with a string of singles and remix projects, for Janet Jackson, Pharcyde, De La Soul, Busta Rhymes, A Tribe Called Quest, Q-Tip's solo album and others. The majority of these productions were released without his name recognition, being credited to The Ummah, a production collective composed of Q-Tip and Ali Shaheed Muhammad of A Tribe Called Quest, and later Raphael Saadiq of Tony! Toni! Toné!. Under this umbrella, Jay did some of his most big name R&B & Hip Hop work, churning out original songs and remixes for Janet Jackson, Busta Rhymes, Brand New Heavies, Something For the People, trip-hop artists Crustation and many others. This all came off the heels of Jay handling the majority of production on The Pharcyde's album Labcabincalifornia, released in the holiday season of 1995. Jay Dee's largest-scale feat came in 1997 when he contributed production work on Janet Jackson's hit single "Got Til It's Gone" from The Velvet Rope album. However any buzz that could have been built for Jay Dee and/or further buzz for The Ummah collective was deadened when the song was mysteriously credited to Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis in the liner notes for the album.
