This is without a doubt one of the funniest, off the wall interviews I've heard in recent memory. Tracy Morgan stopped by Howard Stern's show the other day and the results were insane...

Tracy is utterly unpredictable an there's no telling whats going to come out of his mouth next.

The fashionable thing to do these days is to talk about how much better rap music was back in the 90s. Therefore, there's no reason why real hip hop fans should be ignoring Killer Mike's "Sunday Morning Massacre" series.

Every Sunday ... Mike releases a new track along with an explanation of the content in the song and what message he's trying to convey with the lyrics (usually in a video).

This is not a rapper who's simply saying random things because they happen to rhyme. Stop cheating yourself.

This week's edition is titled "Delilah" and truth be told... I don't like this song. But the quality of his material is consistently dope so I'm going to forgive this one. Check out the track and the description below.

"We all know of great heroes and their epic falls, but what corrupts beauty and blackens a womans heart? Its growing up in dire poverty under the headmaster (no pun intended) of the school of hard knocks. And the 1st lesson to little pretty girls in the ghetto is that your body has a price. When this is the lesson women learn how are they to respond to men? I figure much like the black widow or a venus fly trap, looking beautiful and enticing men to utter death. But Brother I tell you when death looks that good in the club its hard not to wanna dance with this she devil. Delilah is more than a girl, its a mind state. A mind state we as men create when we put a price on the pussy. Ain't it only wise then for the person with the supply to charge according to demand? Just some thoughts, peace. Hope you enjoy."

If you're interested in hearing the previous 7 editions of Sunday Morning Massacre, head over to "The Rezidue" and check em out...

Some of the best diss tracks are the ones where the artist can shut their haters up without resorting to "I'll murder you and your mother's dog with a blunt spoon" type of rhymes. I mean sure, the hardcore diss tracks had their moment in the sun (Hit Em Up etc.) but I love to hear someone dismantled without the threat of physical violence.

There's lots of examples, but the most recent is T.I.'s video for "What Up, What's Happenin" that was released a month or two ago. Seeing him lounging around in Bowen Homes was priceless, the only thing that could have made it better was seeing the look on Shawty Lo's face as he watched.




Jay-Z's track "Oh My God" off the Kingdom Come album had a verse (the 3rd one) I believe could have been aimed by Cam'ron. He doesn't call out any names, he simply illustrates why he's on an entirely different level in life than a two-bit rapper. Like "I'm meeting with government officials in Africa...and all you know is a 12 block radius in Harlem....fall back".

Now these baby ballers toy rappers
Calling out my name to bring the boy backwards
Shooting air balls at the basket
What you call money I paid more in taxes
I got crowned King down in Africa
Down in Nigeria do you have any idea
Sold out shows in Seoul Korea
Jo-berg, Dublin, Tanzania
Lunch with Mandela, dinner with Cavalli
Still got time to give water out to everybody
Every-body ..... fall back
Y'all rapping .... I'm reenacting
CNN you see it's accurate
ESPN see me in action
Monday nights when the half ends
When you ten years in holla back then

I feel like such an old bitter hip hop snob when I say this, but what the fuck happened to real rap music? I want some boom bap, beats and rhymes, throwback 80s or 90s shit. These new Kanye West tracks sound like some sort of emo college kid art student project, and it pains me to say it because Kanye is better than this.

Is this really the same guy who made "We Major"?
Is this really the same dude who made "Get Em High"?

I realize Kanye has always harmonized on a lot of his songs (Hey Mama, We Dont Care, Put On) ... but this is waaaaay on the other side of the spectrum.

How you are guys feelin this?
