Video: Joe Budden & The Roots - Hottest In The Hood Freestyle (Live @ Highline Ballroom)

I must apologize for the lack of posts lately, but I am happy to say during my time away I have got some good work done on our fully pro-fess-ional site, SupremeSteezo.com! We will keep you updated on our progress but expect a move over to the new address some time soon. For now enjoy some video of Joe Budden on stage with The Roots Band.

Video: The Game has a drinking contest on stage in Michigan!

Game challenges a fan to a vodka drinking contest on stage. I must say, in my hay-day, I could take him. Now, I may lose...just barely though. Snatched from lansingpiff.com.

Since I have apparently been slacking on my Asher Roth posts, here is some very nice and clear footage of him doing his new cut featuring Cee-Lo at a recent show in L.A. Enjoy!

Video: Lupe Fiasco Talks About New Album!

At a recent show for the students at Calvin College, Lupe talked about what we can expect from his upcoming album now titled, Lasers. Also check below the audio of his recent interview with Dr. Cornel West.

Video: Kanye West - We Major (Live)

I can not believe that three weeks after the fact we are still getting new performance videos from this year's SXSW festival! As to avoid the feeling of missing out on all this is dope, I will definitely be in the house next year. For now I will just have to enjoy this fisheye footage of Kanye, Really Doe & Tony Williams do “We Major.”

Video: The Cool Kids & Asher Roth - Black Mags (Live)

The Cool Kids and Asher Roth team up on stage for a live remix to "Black Mags" which is a song with one of these most simplistically hard beats I have heard in a while. Check out the clip via HHO.

Video: Wale Takes ATL By Storm!

WALE - GO GO MEETS ATLANTA from zachwolfe.com/live on Vimeo.

Wale stomps his Nike Boots (which happen to be flyer than yours) all around the ATL and takes a couple clubs by storm. Take a look and you might even spot the big homie Bun-B.

Video: Slaughterhouse @ Paid Dues '09

Since not all of us were lucky enough to be in the house for this year's Paid Dues Festival, here is some footy of what went down in the house that is slaughter. If you look very closely you cant actually see Eli getting his grill busted. I kid.

Video: Asher Roth - Cannon & Be By Myself (Live)

Asher Roth Live "Cannon" and "Be By Myself" from Kush Robinson on Vimeo.

Alright, although I do agree that Dallas Penn had a point when he said Asher Roth's fame was mainly online, however looking at the massive crowd in this video shows the blonde Bob Sagget's rep is growing more and more everyday. Asleep In The Bread Aisle hits stores this 4/20. Cannon!

Audio: Atmosphere & Brother Ali Live From Sweden

Courtesy of Midwest Broadcast:

This past summer, Atmosphere and Brother Ali toured across Europe doing a unique, combined set for their 3 The Hard Way tour. I caught their performance in London, and it was honestly one of the better shows I've attended. Slug and Ali complement each other wonderfully on stage, each taking turns being the other's hype man. Not to mention Ant, who does a great job orchestrating the show, as Atmosphere's usual back-up band did not cross the pond to Europe.

The tour also had a stop in Sweden for the Hultsfred Festival, and All The Way Live managed to get a high quality recording of the show. Their post, however, was a one-track, 30 minute recording of the set. I did a little editing with Garageband, and separated each track individually. Featured are Ali and Slug doing a handful of their solo tracks and a few collaborations ("Cats Van Bags," "Blah Blah Blah"). It should, at the very least, provide those that weren't fortunate enough to be in Europe at the time — so probably most of you — a taste of the amazing tour that the Rhymesayers all-stars put on.

Set List:
Panic Attack
Cats Van Bags
Uncle Sam Goddamn
Puppets
Shoulda Known
Forest Whitaker
Blah Blah Blah
Guns and Cigarettes
Take Me Home
Truth Is

Video: N.E.R.D. feat. Santogold & Lil Wayne - Soldier (Live @ Jimmy Fallon)

Pharrell and the gang debut a new track featuring Santogold and Weezy last night on Jimmy Fallon. Also down below we have some more footage of them doing the same track @ Soring Break but this time with an actual appearance Santogold. Damn, this Santogold chick really kinda stole M.I.A.'s swag...

HilAAriousness: Pharrell Freaks Out On Crowd

Check out this clip taken of Pharrell as he yells at various audience members to move away from the stage during his recent appearance at Emory College. Between this and dancing for a big mac, I am not sure what going on with him lately. However, I do like the part when he says, "You in the San Francisco hat, move it or I am gonna tell them to kick you out!" One girl in the video even compares him to her 3rd grade teacher. Chill out Skateboard P!

Video: Asher Roth's ENTIRE Performance @ Spring Break

Asher shuts it down at MTV's spring break and previews some cuts from the album that I have never heard up until now. Toward the end he is even joined on stage by Jim Jones for a wild ass remix to "I Love College". Nice clear video and audio... a beautiful thing.

Video: Asher Roth Live @ SXSW

As you have heard or picked up on by now, SXSW took place last week and the entire music game was in attendance. Asher was no exception as he continues his full press promo tour for Asleep In The Bread Aisle dropping 4/20/09. Check below for the video of his entire performance, which he absolutely shut down with some help from the Cool Kids. Still checking for that Bay Area stop Ash...

Video: Common & Erykah Badu - The Light @ SxSW (Direct Audio)

Fader TV brings us some classic footage from this year's SXSW of Common's ode to Erykah with her actually in the house. On a side note, Ms. Badu was a little late for the show because there was a stalker outside her house. True story, check below for the full story reported by Dallas Penn:

Saturday morning, from the South by Southwest shindig down in Austin, Pete wondered over on DC9 whether Erykah Badu would be playing Auditorium Shores, as expected, or Malaysia, as pictured. Turns out, she was heading to Austin after all -- but only after being delayed in Dallas, where police were detaining a stalker in front of her house. Badu's isn't exactly the most tucked-away home in town, which is how a "white woman mid to late 20's," as Badu described her on her Twitter account, found the place -- and brought with her some "weird writting."

Badu, who recently tweeted the birth of her daughter, recounted the entire episode -- which Entertainment Weekly followed Saturday night, posting several updates during the course of Badu's abbreviated show on the Shores. (She also joined Kanye West and Common at The Levi's®/FADER Fort on Saturday night.) As Erykah wrote, the stalker showed up three times -- first at 1 p.m. -- and left after the singer-songwriter exchanged a few words. Two visits later, she wrote, she had no choice but to get Dallas police involved. DPD senior corporal Kevin Jans, a department spokesman, tells Unfair Park that an "obsessed fan," as she was described in the police report, was indeed arrested Saturday night. The disturbing police narrative, including references to "a dog that will eat your soul," follows after the jump.

Craaazy, maybe she should have called on Tyrone. Yeah, I know that was lame.

Video: Asher Roth - Blunt Cruisin’ (Live)

Here is some more footy of Asher performing at Toad's Place last week, and by the title alone I think this may be one of my favorite tracks on the album. In other WTF?! news, I recently read that both Busta Rhymes and Lil Wayne are officially confirmed to be on Asleep In The Bread Aisle. I am really having trouble imagining an Asher & Weezy colabo, but it guess it could be dope. Just one more reason to look forward to 4/20.

HilAAriousness: Joaquin Phoenix Wants His Street Cred!

I still can't tell if this dude is actually serious with his supposed rap career, but I am astonished at how many people are at his show. This entertaining little clip was spotted over at WWTDD, and check below for more details on happened reported by the Sun UK:

JOAQUIN PHOENIX was involved in a huge brawl while performing at a Miami night club last night, wrestling a heckler to the ground before being dragged off by security.

The actor-turned-rapper, 34, jumped off the stage mid-way through his appearance to confront the mouthy audience member.

An enraged Joaquin, sounding a little more coherent than in recent times, announced: “We have a f***ing b**** in the audience.

Nodding his head while rapping to a beat, he told the man: “I've got $1million in the bank. What have you got b****?”

Joaquin – who sources say arrived four hours late for the gig at the LIV night club in the Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel – then launched himself into the crowd.

The crowd chanted “beat him up, beat him up” as Joaquin got stuck in.

Video: The Game Brings Out Nipsey Hussle & Menace Live On Stage

At a recent show in New Mexico, The Game brought out Nipsey Hussle & Menace and stamps them as the "new west coast" while performing his knocker Dope Boys. Later on, he does something real cool and brings out a disabled kid to chill on stage and rock with him to Big Dreams. Jayceon is a good man.

Video: T.I., Shawty Lo, and Alfamega Together Live On Stage!

Well it seems as though the beef is officially squashed since everyone got on stage together this weekend at ATL's Club Crucial for one of TIP's final shows before his bid in the bing. If I were Shawty Lo I would be very happy to finally live my life without fear of a beating by Alfamega aka Mr. "what nightmares are made of."
