Shared passion makes for unique comradery, and never has that been more evident than with the release of the newest #YAJB (@YouAintJamminBro) Cypher from B.ORGNL & Power Broker ENT. Four immensely talented yet starkly contrasting DFW emcees (Pikhasso, Hello ImThrowed, Suave Burgandy, Kaution) and one Legendary DJ (DJ Snake of NEMESIS ) come together for the first time ever for what is sure to be the lyric filled highlight of any hip-hop head's day. Check out the new video below...

It was an eventful #IMOC (International Month of Cool) & #IMOP (International Month of Pimp'n) aka March & April *#SkoundrelLife trademark*. There's was good music falling from the cyber clouds, dope shows taking place, & all kinds of playa vibes circulating the atmosphere. Catch this recap of all things #PoliticalStatus in media & music for spring 17!

One of my newer online vices is watching Complex's Sneaker Shopping series w/ Joe La Puma. The series takes celebrities w/ novice to expert level sneaker knowledge and picks their brains on their love and experience w/ the shoe game and then turns them loose to shop in some of the nation's most well known sneaker boutiques. Their purchases are itemized and shown to the viewers giving insight on the retail/resale market as well as each guests taste. Not a bad way to spend 8 minutes. I've taken the liberty of attaching the entire series playlist so you don't have to go searching for more after you become hooked, you can watch them all here on #Suave4MayorDotCom Check It out!

...so everybody wanted to know how it was gonna work out on SNL. Live. Late Night. Network. Tv.

Dave Chappelle apparently was back like he never left...check out the opening monologue from SNL. WhT did you think of the show? What was your favorite moment? #PoliticalStatus

Shia LeBEOUF went on Sway in the morning & lost his damn mind...

Quite a few people hit me up about participating in the #SoGoneChallenge but TBH by the time they did I was pretty much over the idea of submitting anything & my #SkoundrelLife Brethen @DonClaudeVanHam had already body bagged the challenge on our behalf (click here to view). Soon thereafter Prodigy of Mobb Deep called for a #ShookOnesChallenge over one of their most classic records ever...thing is, I did that 5 YEARS AGO!
