Dirty Money – Angels (remixes)

Most KTL family don’t know who “Dirty Money” is. Basically, Diddy started a group with himself, Dawn from Danity Kane, and unknown chick #1. They have been my most recent guilty pleasure. Their “Love Come Down” has me doing Diddy dances in the DJ Booths on Sat Night. This song won me over w/ the Jay-Z sample and Biggie verse. Since I am not the only one digging them (What up, KHAL!), I thought I would post some of the remixes out. You’ll be surprised. Props to NR for these joints.

Rick Ross – Magnificent (remix) *** UPDATED***

I heard this was in the mix for awhile. It was cool to see Special Ed in the “Magnificent” video, now he’s on the remix with Big Boi, too! His flow is deeper and slower (no fish sticks) but sounds right on the track. Glad to see Ed back since Crooklyn Dodgers days. I’ve been a Special Ed fan since Day 1. “I Got It Made” is in my all-time top 3 songs ever. There are talks that there is a larger, all-star version that is in the making and this is just a teaser.

The Hip-Hop Caucus

hip-hopcaucus

I have been feeling bad recently about the lack of posting of electoral or political issues since the Obama inaugration.  Its been this guilt of feeling like a bandwagon politico.  So I am trying to do more of an effort of dropping some knowledge the political front as well.  Let’s See how I do.

The homie, KG, sent me an article today talking about a bill the Hip-Hop Caucus is pushing forward to the senate for driving young voter registration.  The HHC is headed by Rev. Lennox Yearwood and was founded in 2004.  Yearwood is no naive youngster to the politics.  He has been instrumental in Diddy’s “Vote or Die” campaign, Rusell Simmons Hip-Hop Summit, Jay-Z’s “Citizen Change”, and T.I.’s “Respect My Vote“.  An interesting group and one that is trying to make change from within the system. More info here.

Searching for the new Alba… Dena Cali

This woman has it all – the looks, the attitude, artistic creativity, business mind, a heart for others and she’s from the LA Area. Dena Cali (representing Pasadena obviously) is one of kind. You have may noticed her before in Fast and the Furious or as Diddy’s love interest in his “Last Night” video. She recently will be world-recognized in Usher’s new video, “Moving Mountains. Starting a non-profit, building a women’s beauty empire, and a modeling career – I think we can expect to see big things from her soon and KTL cosigns for her. Videos after the jump…

The Tupac/Biggie L.A. Times round-up

2pacshot

As most of you already know, the LA times published a report today that states Diddy and Biggie (along with some associates) knew of and took part in the shooting attack on Tupac Shakur at Quad Studios in 1994. Tupac has always claimed that Biggie knew who set him up and the East Coast/West Coast division immediately followed. Diddy has already made straightforward denials to any of the claims. Here is a round up of what’s being said:

* Eskay gives you quick bulletpoints

* MTV gives some coverage attention to the article

* MissInfo expresses her lack of belief in the piece

Diddy and 10 questions

TIME recently did an article where Diddy answers 10 questions submitted by readers. I think he is honest in his answers but some the questions chosen were superficial. Cool to see who he gives props to. Shout out to the Rap Up for hitting us up with this one. They showed us love, so we are giving it back (pause). Full Interview after the jump…
