Here's a great interview for all the Hiii Powered intellects out there. Being a Kendrick fan, I've watched countless interviews on the revolutionist and I must say, damn some of these questions they ask are repetitive. In this case, Peter Rosenberg holds one quite interesting interview. This time around you get a chance to hear Mr. Lamar speak about his ability to get a buzz amongst the brainless masses even though he puts out classic, food for thought hip hop, his struggles to master and perfect a sound in music, the irony of him touring with Drake, and other thought provoking questions/answers. On top of everything, Rosenberg kind of calls out School Boy Q for his "Drinking and Driving" anthem (which features one of my new favorites, ASAP Rocky).
"The Mainstream is weak, the underground ain't dope no more!" Hip Hop is a surplus nowadays. So much music coming out... yet more than half of it will not be remembered. This site is dedicated to search through all Hip Hop and bring what we feel is the good stuff today. This isn't a website committed to bring you commercial rap or underground; this is strictly for the Hip Hop Heads. No bias regardless of popularity or abstractness. "Dope beats, Dope Rhymes, what more do ya'll want!"

Curren$y - She Don't Want a Man + Nardwar Interview
She Don't Want a Man: Spitta has to be one of the hardest working emcees in the game. Over the last two years he's put out about 5 great projects (Pilot Talk, Pilot Talk 2, Covert Coup, Etc.). This next single, "She Don't Want a Man", is his first off his next album, Weekend At Burnie's. The album drops June 28th and should be another impressive piece for Curren$y to add onto his portfolio.
Download She Don't Want a Man
Curren$y vs. Nardwar: If you haven't heard of Nardwar just yet, he's this loppy dude who interviews artists in the strangest manner. He pretty much finds a lot of information out about an artist, that not even some of the biggest fans may know, and then incorporates something that relates to the topic into the interview. You're better off just watching the video to understand what I mean. Nardwar also interviews J. Cole, Lil Wayne, Nas, Lil B, OFWGTA, etc.

Kendrick Lamar Hardknock.TV Interview
Just another sit down with a potential 2011 XXL freshman. If you've never heard of him, he's a Compton representative and has built up a big enough buzz in the last year to be on verge of a co-sign by Dre. In this interview, Kendrick Lamar speaks about working with J. Cole, his thoughts on 2011 freshman, and making music we can all relate to.

Nice With the Beats Too!
We all love him for his raw lyrics and flawless delivery, but the man is a great producer too! In this clip, J. Cole is finally interviewed on his production talents among other things (such as working with No ID and favorite beats). Give it some time and I'm sure he'll be praised just like Kanye. I just hope he doesn't try and pull no 808 & Heartbreaks shit.
Professor 9th Wonder
Yes... Little Brother's x-producer is a college professor. In this recent video of Maestro Knows, 9th Wonder is followed around North Carolina's Duke University while he gives his input on hip hop and music in general. You also get to see the professor in action as he lectures his students on how to properly sample soul music!
