Videos of the Week September 21st

Three main takeaways from this week's videos.

• I would pay good money to see John Mayer OR @frank_ocean in concert. Seeing them perform together would probably result in my head exploding. The only thing greater and more ironic performance that would top seeing them together would be if John Mayer swapped roles with his own guitarist @drh3, who just so happens to have one of the most under-appreciated voices in the game.
• Where is the Celebration (remix) featuring the whole Bone Thugs crew?
• Is @DMX really serious about being that clueless with working a computer? "I don't have the patience?" Really man? Either that video below is a complete act and he's throwing us all for a huge loop, or dude has maybe used a keyboard twice...ever. Either way, why again is he getting interviewed like every week? I want to start a wager right now. Which happens first, Antonio Cromartie fathers another child or DMX gets arrested again? #TooToughToCall

Videos of the Week July 13th

Interesting week for videos in that the two most interesting videos came in the form of interviews rather than videos. The most interesting by far borders around the potential ramifications of the $10 million lawsuit filed by @LordFinesseDITC vs @MacMiller. The dispute it over Mac's Kool Aid & Frozen Pizza track that sampled Finesse'sHip 2 Da Game from 1995.

This past week, they have traded social networking shots first claiming that they hadn't talked and then talking, but now the situation has deteriorated on twitter. The track was never on a studio album, but on Mac's 2010 K.I.D.S. mixtape. While neither song really made huge waves, in the court of law it's all about setting standards and in Hip Hop the sampling/copyright standard on beats has been non-existent. Think about how many rappers have freestyled over beats that weren't theirs on mixtapes. Can you imagine a world without free sampling in Hip Hop? That world is not somewhere I want to live...#FreeSampling
