Emanuel Lewis! We cover Coolio’s cooking show, so why not Jazzy Phizzle’s cooking show? He needs a hypeman if he wants to match up with Coolio’s show, IMHO.

We don’t post much about fly sneaker/clothes around here but we know it when we see it. Given how much we’ve been posting about YO! MTV Raps’s 20th anniversary lately, I thought I’d highlight the awesome PUMA/YO! cross marketed gear that’s been coming out. This isn’t everything, just my favourites.
First, the Dre & Ed Lover kicks:

The Big Daddy Kane Puma Clyde:

The Shan sneaks:

The YO! MTV Raps hoodie:

Puma put together a nifty little flash site to promote this line of sneakers and threads. You can see more of the Puma/YO! clothing line there as well as read some bios of the rappers and DJs promoting the line. It also measures its loading percentage by “freshness”, which gets a lot of points in my book.

I’m aware some of this is old, but I still think this is pretty dope.

I’ve been slacking on posting these joints, which is sorta like a crime against humanity.

Coolio is a Pirate that cooks shrimp:

How many magazines must get dissed? Duck Down Records, making light of the whole Maxim/Nas/Black Crowes review controversy, has volunteered two of their upcoming albums to be reviewed without actually being heard. A little more info:

Disclaimer:
In light of the recent allegations made against Maxim Magazine by the Black Crowes and Nas for printing LP reviews of their respective forthcoming albums without actually hearing either of them, Buckshot/9th Wonder and Kidz In the Hall gladly volunteered their upcoming albums to receive the same treatment. We would also like to invite Maxim to attend any Kidz In The Hall and Buckshot and 9th Wonder show, or any of our artists in general– attendance is of course only optional!!
These mock-ups are by in no way intended to attack Maxim Magazine’s credibility, or incriminate them in any manner; it’s all in good fun!
Kidz In the Hall and Buckshot/9th Wonder Plead With Maxim Magazine To Review Their Respective LP’s Without Hearing Them!

The mockups are too huge to embed, so I’ll give you links. Spoiler: there’s a lot of jokes about how intimidating Sean P is. This is classic material; feel free to save it for April Fools.

How about previewing the albums yourself and forming your own opinion?

Coolio is helping the whole fam eat healthy!

If you’ve wondered what everyone would sound like on Twitter if they all spoke like Snoop here is your shot. Too bad his lack of updates prevents us from adding his own page to our list.

A cartoon that features voice work by RA The Rugged Man & Kool G Rap?? Forget Nick Jr., all ML kids will be raised on this.

Check it.

Jimmy did this in response to his girlfriend, Sarah Silverman’s I’m Fucking Matt Damon. This is the TV highlight of the year (and Oscar night) for us.  So many awesome cameos, the irony in Lance Bass being in it is too great to put into words, nh.

This > We Are The World.

Apologizes for the title all you workplace ML readers.

The Sarah Silverman video after the jump, highlight: the dance off scene.
