Reina Robinson and Kayla Lewis sit down with New Orleans native, Curren$y, after his Sactown Performance. Tune in as he discuses upcoming Erykah Badu collab & video, Pilot Talk 2 features & release date, Cars, Cali, Weed, Blue Moon, & more!

Mystikal and Mannie Fresh take it to the Porsche to debut some new instrumentals. The reactions from Mystikal are priceless haha as he takes a listen to Mannie’s cooked up crack. I think you’ve gotta certainly respect Mannie Fresh’s legacy in New Orleans hip hop and music on the whole.

Also while I don’t support Mystikal’s past actions which led him to jail, I do firmly believe that he is one rapper that could, potentially, make a decent come back. Between his unique style and his ability to make a single, I feel like he has it in him. One of the major factors holding him back, however, is that he’s behind the times in the social media circle – which is integral nowadays.

After rumblings of a ‘resurrected’ Roc-A-Fella were heard earlier last month, there has been much speculation as to when the first artist Curren$y would drop his new album.

Expect to see Curren$y ‘Pilot Talk’ set to arrive July 13 on Dame Dash’s imprint DD172 thru Roc-A-Fella/ Island/Def Jam.

Young Lloyd and Mystikal hit the streets of NOLA to bring us “Set Me Free.”  I’m not 100% positive, but I believe this is Mystikal‘s first music video appearance since he got outta jail. I know he popped up at a couple of concerts, but here he is.

What’s interesting is, like Shyne, I’m sure some of the youngsters might not even know who he is. He’s been in jail since 2004 and his last real hit was in 2001.

Because whenever new Electronica drops, the world stops for a second to check this material out. If you don’t, you’re missing out. Can’t wait to hear what he has in store. This has been a pretty major week for music, in my opinion.

Jay Electronica goes back home to his old stomping grounds in the area that was once the Magnolia Housing Projects in the Third Ward of New Orleans. To this day many former residents have nothing and still nowhere to call home. (props Legend)
