Mikey: Raekwon held his album release party for OB4CL2 at Santos in true Wu fashion. I was a lil’ rusty on my Shaolin Shadowboxing, so I played the crib, but from what Info said, it was pretty much ‘95 all over again last night. Hosting duties were held by Diddy, and Ghost and Cappa held Rae down as he rocked the crowd and celebrated the release OB4L2. I think Info’s going to post some pics and her recap of the show soon, so sit tight internets. Props to Waterfall for the vid.
MissInfo: yes…it was a good, sweaty, hiphop night. And Rae was happy and verklempt.
(Erick Sermon, me, Reggie Noble, and Lil Cease)
(Diddy was a trooper, he thugged it out on that stage…yes that was the view of the stage from Scram Jones’ DJ set-up. And it was steamy like a split baked potato. Uncomfy)
More Coverage from last night over at XXL Mag (Rae wishes Jay-Z a good release week) and RapRadar (performance clips) and MTV Mixtape Daily (Sha, where were you?!)
After the jump….more video clips, as well as me and Angela Yee’s photos from the party!
(Lowkey was chaperone, Dallas was the mayor)
(thanks to Angela Yee for twitpic-ing this funny photo and the one below of Rae…wait a minute! Leah Rose is calling us Looosers! LOL)
(Rae with 2 “fly colored Asians”…note to self: stop smiling so hard. yeesh. gummy.)

The show was disappointing considering who was on the bill. By the time I left @12:30 I only saw Cappadonna, Ghostface, Raekwon and Diddy on the mic (well Diddy said a few words before he bounced). More ppl not on the bill took the mic while the crowd waited for Rae and Co to finish up their plate of fish or whatever. Raekwon’s brother was up there with Eric Sermon and someone from Brand Nubian and someone else nobody recognized from 1992. I saw Slick Rick and Ice T. Very underwhelming.

Red is aging and Cease is getting shorter.

damn redman, rap needs an age-limit. i think 38 is good.
anybody over 38 should be banned from rapping. producing, etc… that’s all good but rapping. please. too damn old. take your kids too school or some shit. get a hobby. just don’t write anymore rhymes.

info, i love this site, and i can understand someone disagreeing with me. you could make the argument that with age comes wisdom(which it does) and that someone should get better with age but most of these guys aren’t better, and at some point you gotta hang it up. aretha franklin was brilliant as a young woman, but she’s not the same. the voice changes etc…
look at it this way. a lot of these guys didn’t have an older generation to stand in their way when they made it big in the 90’s because they got in the biz early. however, now they are kind of in the way. they’re rich, complacent, and satisfied; most of them don’t even make thought provoking music because they are part of the establishment. in my opinion rap is sort of worse off these days because a good young generation is no where to be found. i see the future of rap like the future of japan: fewer young people and a growing older population.

i just went back and listened to aquemeni. my goodness, what a masterpiece. outkast is the only exception to my age-limit. outkast should keep doing it as long as they can. outkast needs to return to
save music.

LOL….very interesting analogy. Rap is Japan. Actually the low birth rate is a prob in all of Asia. Young ppl are more interested in partying and shopping than settling down and procreating. Its very fascinating.

If you don’t have an actual reason to support that then you’re just saying shit to be saying it. Eminem, Andre 3000, and many others are near if not past that age and rhyming younger cats under the table.
Now if you saying that shouldn’t make microwavable,club, commercial joints then perhaps….

i actually wrote that producers and other professions outside of rapping are fine. dre can produce until he’s 70 if he wants but i don’t want to hear a 70 year old rapping. the greatest to ever do it(B.I.G) agreed with me as well. he said he didn’t want to be that old 30+ year old rapper still rapping.

See… shit like this reminds me why I love hip-hop. Sure that’s cliche, but fukkit.
I almost wanna rock the Helly Hansen this fall/winter just to get that feelin’ back. I might even put the iPod down and pull the old Walkman out. Well nah, won’t go that far, but yeah.
-D!
