This past Tuesday, Canibus and Keith Murray released their collaborative EP The Undergods. So I thought it was a good idea to put them up against one another for our Freestyle Friday! The idea of Freestyle Fridays is to battle one another with your favorite verse from either of the two competitors. You’re essentially battling [...]

The greatest asset of wisdom is said to be experience. With our recent week highlighting Jay-z, most saw how good an “older” emcee is and can be when reflecting on the x amount of years in the game. While Hov is an exception to plenty of hip hop rules, Buckshot and KRS are certainly amongst [...]
