Video Interviews

See, beef is good for everybody, even those not involved. Pitbull gets some publicity by talking about 50 Cent’s beef with Rick Ross and Rick’s ex.

50 Cent dropped by Conan O’Brien’s place to discuss his place, condoms, cologne, and internet geeks.

Seems like Worldstar is doing the paparazzi thing now. They found Cam’ron doing some grocery shopping the other day and asked him some Dipset related questions and then put the footage over Beanie Sigel’s “I Go Off.” I don’t get it.

This was actually released before the ODB/Wu Tang one [click here], but I just found it and it’s too good not to post. Fredro Starr talks about being offered a record deal with Death Row Records after Suge Knight and Tupac went to the Sunset Park premier, and how ‘Pac and others reacted to the offer.

For the record, the ‘Pac song on the Sunset Park soundtrack that ‘Dro mentions is the amazing classic “Pain” that was later bastardized by Ja Rule on his album Pain Is Love.

UPDATE: Thanks to Jon Peters below for pointing out my mistake, the song on the Sunset Park soundtrack was actually “High ‘Til I Die.” “Pain” was released on the soundtrack of another basketball movie, Above The Rim, in which Tupac also stared. My comments on Ja Rule’s version of “Pain” still stand though. Terrible.

Fredro Starr gives the low down about some past beef between Onyx and Wu-Tang, that fortunately never got out of hand or blown up by the media.

Fabolous has a bunch of projects coming up including a mixtape with DJ Drama out this Christmas day.

50 Cent says if him and Jay-Z square off, one of them won’t survive it. Now who do you think that would be? Vote on our poll to the right and fire back below.

Just before news broke out that Gucci Mane had been taken into custody and sentenced to 12 months in jail [click here], the Atlanta rapper sat down with Miss Info to discuss his beef with Young Jeezy.

Here is the track they were talking about:

I always thought Cuban Link was a great rapper with a lot of commercial potential as well, it’s a shame his career never really took off after Atlantic shelved him. Anyway, here he talks about why he slapped Pitbull at a Biggie tribute concert in 2005.

This Is Hip-Hop.

Jay-Z’s current protege talks about his boss’s beef with his previous protege Beanie Sigel. Oh, and he talks about comparisons to Drake.

In this interview with HardKnockTV Rakim tells fans why he doesn’t have any production from DJ Premier, Clark Kent or Pete Rock on his upcoming album The Seventh Seal. Ra also talks about why he’s chosen to only work with NY artists on the album.

While on Shade 45 the Bone Thugs talk about Eazy-E’s death from AIDS, and how they think there was something more to it.

Half of Slaughterhouse, Crooked I and Royce Da 5′9″ discuss Crooked’s protege group the Horseshoe G.A.N.G.

Extended drunk “I love you man!” “No, no, I love YOU man!”’s

Heat broke the news here so check that out for all the details, but you can watch the two part video interview below. Beanie Sigel goes in on Jay-Z’s shady business practices and 50 Cent promotes his album.
