We hip hop fans in New Zealand have been deprived of one of hip hop’s greatest live acts, Method Man and Redman. Meth and Red were billed for the Buggin’ Out Tour a few years back, Redman got as close as Australia but apparently didn’t have permission from the US government to enter New Zealand. Although at the time we were told a totally different story by the promoters. Still, we got a live Method Man solo show which was ill.
Anyways, the homie DJ Franchise was fortunate enough to see Meth and Red live in San Fran on Sunday night and has shared some footage of them performing one of my favourite joints from their new albumBlackout! 2, “City Lights”. Ghostface and Duo Live also performed on the same night, so expect some more footage in the next few days…
This ad rules hard and serves as another reminder that Nike has untold money. Even in a recession they can still pull out the mega budget for their “niche” activities like skateboarding. Looks mint, set to one of the best songs ever, and Paul’s switch 3 flip is fucked. Too much.
James Toback’s gripping and compelling documentary is the story of Tyson’s troubled life, as hero and villain. With unprecedented access, Toback’s film sees Tyson talk about his life to the camera, and cuts the 30 hours of footage to give an insight into the way the former heavyweight champion sees the world.
I spent all Thursday night downloading this on uTorrent, but fortunately for you lot there’s now no need for that as you can stream the whole film above. As we’ve professed before, Iron Mike is an icon round these parts and this doco is a must watch for anyone with even the slightest interest in the man. Hate him or love him, he’s just a fascinating individual – I’m not even gonna get into the spoilers.. just get comfortable, get a snack and hit play.
edit: Appears worldstar have had the clamps put on them as it’s just streaming the trailer now. if you missed it the comment section might have an answer for you.
