Follow Friday - The Doppelgangaz & Timeless Truth

Instead of spending money I shouldn't be on Black Friday (I just did), I thought a "Follow Friday" segment was in order. The groups that I've decided to feature are two that I've been following for a few years now. Both make back to basics Hip Hop and is exactly what people are crying out for these days. Or so they say...

I won't give you bios for them. You can discover that yourself. All I'm doing is shedding some light and hopefully putting some great music your way. To those already listening, kudos. To those this is new to, hope you enjoy as much as I do. Check out The Doppelgangaz and Timeless Truth.

Kanye West Interview on Sway In The Morning (Video)

You may or may not of heard about Kanye West going ballistic on air yesterday. Yeezy appeared on Shade45's "Sway In The Morning" and gave a really entertaining interview. Despite the fact his was a little disrespectful to host Sway Calloway during the interview, for the most part you can see that Kanye is a passionate and charismatic person.

Check the whole interview below but if you're more interested in seeing Ye going basura, skip to 17 minutes in.
