Wu Tang Clams are just one of the many hip-hop-based food items on the extensive Rappetite menu in Atlanta, GA. Other hilarious offerings include Lil' Kimchee, Talib Quail-i, and the devilish-sounding Ol' Dirty Custard. The unfortunate thing about this restaurant is that it's all a hoax. "A fun joke that has gone out of control!" wrote Everett Steele of Atlanta-based interactive media agency Baby Robot . This may be a good thing considering that "beef" between the Turkey Minaj and Lil' Kimchee could easily wreak havoc to your stomach. Wu-Tang member [...]

We wrapped up 2011 with a list of our favorite releases from the year, and now it's time to turn our focus to 2012 and give you a list of albums that we are looking
Unfortunately, what was supposed to be HBO's Entourage replacement only lasted two seasons. The dropping of the axe on How To Make It In America didn't come as a surprise to most, as the TV program was mainly famous for starring Kid Cudi. But while the show, which followed two friends (Ben Epstein and Cam Calderon) trying to succeed in New York's competitive fashion scene, was far from perfect, its soundtrack was quite impressive. Today's playlist comprises dance, hip hop, electronic, and indie rock – our way of bidding adieu to the [...]

Some have come a very long way since, a few have changed their sound drastically, and others are no longer with us. Take a trip down memory lane with these five selections. [...]
Black Star performed the song, "Little Brother" , with the Roots on the Jimmy Fallon Show last night. (I'm going to link the video a lot because it's cuss-in-front-of-your-grandma good.) Afterword, ?uestlove explained why he loves the song so much and the story behind how the late J Dilla came to produce the beat. If you're on the fence, ?uestlove said this about the song/performance: "Scientifically this is one of the most intricate Hip Hop songs ever crafted. This was the greatest thing I've ever witnessed in my life." [...]
Talib Kweli using his influential voice to the hip hop heads out there and adding a nice visual depicting a picture of NYC and its people being held down. "Distractions" takes on the topics of war, oil, politcs, and a small problem known as the 99%. Get some knowledge.
