YoRapper — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 21:14:05 +0000

David Choe is a real artist, he started off a graph artist become famous in his own right as an artist, made his first million gambling in Las Vegas, went to Japanese prison for 3 months and in 2005 was asked by then Facbeook president Sean Parker (the kid who started Napster) to paint the walls of Facebook’s office with his art. Choe was asked if he would take $60,000 or shares in Facebook for his services, he decided to take shares as a risk and didn’t think anything would come of it, in fact and never been on Myspace or Friendster, much less had access to the internet as he had just got out of jail. When a New York Times article broke recently that Choe would stand to make anywhere between $100 and $500 million as a result of Facebook going public, Choe not only became incredibly rich but also famous.

He decided to share his story with Howard Stern in which if you are any type of entrepreneur or artist should listen to below.

Here’s a random video of Mark Zuckerberg and David Choe painting Facebook’s office.

Anyone whose seen The Throne know they end their set off with the triumphant “Niggas in Paris”, which they perform about 100 times straight. For the people that haven’t witnessed the almighty, The Throne drop some visuals using stock footage from their show at the Staples Center and some kaleidoscope effects which detail that very epic moment.

Rick Ross Promotes Violence Against Women

Rick Ross new video “Yella Diamonds” has everything we’ve seen before: old Spanish drug cartel type, his family (a hot wife/daughter combo), and black guys with ski masks. What makes this video even more disturbing than what we’re use to is the amount of scenes showing women getting choked out. Now I’m a pretty liberal person when it comes to these things, but I couldn’t help but think of the effect this would have a on people that don’t better. Thank you Rick Ross for ruining the world.

Jim Jones’ mom whose become a celebrity in her own right after appearing in VH1′s Love & Hip Hop in which she coined the phrase “I’m a psychotic bitch!”, is getting into the rap game. The heads will remember Mama Jones isn’t new to rap, she actually had a verse on Cam’ron’s SDE.Here’s her highly entertaining first video appropriately called “Psychotic Bitch”. I got to admit a grandma rapping is kinda fresh.

Rick Ross Speaks on His Cover Art Photos

YoRapper — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 05:00:43 +0000

Rick Ross chops it up with photographer Jonathan Mannion on their mutually successful careers which have seen the two artists working with each other on a number of occasions particularly for Ross’ previous cover art for Deeper Than Rap and for his upcoming God Forgives, I Don’t. While their is a lot of ass kissing going on, it’s still interesting to watch Ross, I couldn’t help but think of the Ross line “I’m a photographer’s dream”, while watching this.

2 Chainz Killing It: “Got One” Video

Titty boy drops some green screen visuals for one of my fav tracks of T.R.U.REALigion, it’s too bad more effort wasn’t put into the video though.

Dear Amber Rose, Kesha Called She Wants Her Style Back

YoRapper — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 19:08:35 +0000

While it isn’t the worst pop/rap song ever it’s severely infringing on Kesha’s style, which in itself is enough for the world (maybe too much).

Oh music industry when will we learn a pretty face doesn’t ever make great art?

Shit Rappers Say Sucks

YoRapper — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 19:02:27 +0000

Adding to the Shit Girls Say phenomenon Julia Beverly, creator of Ozone Mag, brings us Shit Rappers Say. While I didn’t find it that funny, it’s likely because the acting from rappers like Killer Mike, Paul Wall and Slim Thug isn’t that good. It’s also ironic that all the rappers actually featured in the video are all the ones that have been guilty of saying the same things when they we’re hot.

Here’s something which may made me crack, “Shit Rappers Don’t Say”. It’s too bad they used a shitty camera and the video is 10 minutes!

M.I.A.’S Atlanta Street Cred Just Went Up

YoRapper — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 16:03:06 +0000

M.I.A. has been away from music for a minute what having babies and marrying billionaires. She returns with sounds like a 2 Chainz inspired hook and a video that looks like something Ali G would have imagined if he we’re on acid. You do have to hand it to her for constantly pushing boundaries and being innovated.

Why I Don’t Go to Pawn Shops

YoRapper — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 06:43:13 +0000

This has everything to make you middle class yuppies salivate: niggas arguing with hicks over a jail-broken PS3. Seriously though is this is what’s on TV? Not hating or anything I would probably watch this if I could afford more than basic cable and actually watched TV.
