Swizz Beatz Covers The Summer 2011 Paper Magazine

South Bronx native Swizz Beatz covers the summer 2011 issue of Paper magazine. The 32-year-old artist, who has deals with Reebok, Aston Martin, and Christian Louboutin, and is a Producer-in-Residence at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, has definitely come a long way from his days as the in-house producer for the Ruff Ryders.

As one of the most sought after producers in the music industry, Swizz reflects upon his success saying:
“Man, I crossed bridges in the industry that should stop water. Me coming from the South Bronx and partnering up with Christian Louboutin — we’re not supposed to be in that world!”
As far as his marriage to singer Alicia Keys, he tells the magazine:
“Being married to a public figure made people CONTINUE READING

Stone Soul Spotlight: Caddy Da Don




David Rice – best recognized as Caddy Da Don in his hometown of Baltimore – grew up on the east side of the city. Named “the home of HBO’s hit series The Wire,” the city lives up to its hard-hitting reputation. Caddy found himself drawn to the lavish lifestyle of money, cars, women and business attainable by only the toughest on the streets. The dicey routine landed Caddy incarcerated. With time to rethink his ways, Caddy discovered his slick method of talk and talent for writing made him a natural lyricist...

Freddie Gibbs Discusses Cold Day In Hell Delay

Life can change a lot over a year and a half. On a cold December night in 2009, I met up with Freddie Gibbs to hit Reggie’s Rock Club for a Bun B & Cool Kids holiday concert. Upon entering the venue, I introduced Fred to every rapper, promoter, producer and Chicago industry type in the building. Some gave him the time of day – others didn’t. The then-unknown Gibbs watched the show in relative anonymity, with only a few of those in attendance coming up to give him dap. Hard to imagine, right? A few short months later, his entire life would change.

In June of 2011, it would be hard for Gibbs to walk through that same club, let alone stand in the crowd and take in a show. Gibbs is now rocking bigger audiences and selling out larger venues. Those same bouncers who wouldn’t let him backstage would now gladly lift up the velvet ropes to usher him in, and those same sleepy head industry types are now begging to be down. Life’s a funny thing. Hip-Hop is even funnier.


In the 18 months since that night at Reggie’s, Freddie has graced the cover of XXL, dropped a retail album, modeled for LRG and inked a high profile record deal with everyone’s favorite snowman, Young Jeezy. So yeah, shit done changed. On the eve of his 29th birthday, I caught up with Gangsta Gibbs, who was in Hawaii celebrating the occasion, and we discussed his deal with Jeezy and his upcoming mixtape Cold Day In Hell.

Why Did Lupe Call Obama a Terrorist??


It looks like Lupe Fiasco won’t be getting his hands on an invite to the White House.
Last month, he released the controversial “Words I Never Said”, video where he vented about his displeasure with the American Government,, saying:
“Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist, Gaza Strip was getting burned, Obama didn’t say shit/ That’s why I ain’t vote for him, next one either.”
In an interview with CBS News’ What’s Trending, that aired last night, he spoke further on terrorism, calling President Obama the biggest terrorist of them all.
“In my fight against terrorism, to me, the biggest terrorist is Obama in the United States of America. For me, I’m trying to fight the terrorism that’s actually causing the other forms of terrorism. The root cause of the terrorism is the stuff that you as a government allow to happen and the foreign policies that we have in place in different countries that inspire people to become terrorists. And it’s easy for us because it’s really just some oil, which we can really get on our own.”
When asked if he voted, he replied:
“I don’t vote. I don’t get involved in the political process because it’s meaningless, to be honest. I’m a real big believer if I’m gonna vouch for someone, then I’m gonna stand behind everything that they do. That’s just how I am as a human being. So politicians aren’t gonna do that because I don’t want you to bomb some village in the middle of nowhere.”
Watch the video below:



I definitely understand his frustrations with the government but I don’t know what’s worse; not voting, or standing back and complaining about the people who are voted in.
