    Joe Budden & Hip Hop "Journalism," Jay-Zs 4:44, More #RIPProdigy News and more

    In this episode of The NY Hip Hop Report with Manny Faces, Manny speaks on the current state of hip-hop journalism, in response to the Joe Budden vs Migos uproar at the BET awards. As an award-winning new media journalist, Manny has plenty to say about the subject. Upcoming releases from prominent New York-area hip-hop artists were also discussed, including Nitty Scott, a posthumous release from Sean Price and Jay-Z's upcoming 4:44. As always, Manny brought much deserved attention to various NY-area hip-hop events, both recapping events from the past week and previewing upcoming events, including Steez Day, Peter Rosenberg's PeterPalooza and, on a more somber note, the public funeral service for recently deceased veteran MC Prodigy, of iconic rap group Mobb Deep.

    RIP Prodigy, JSWISS Interview, Event (P)reviews

    On this episode of The NY Hip Hop Report with Manny Faces, we pay tribute to the late Prodigy of Mobb Deep. Few MCs personified gritty, visual, memorable New York rap better than Prodigy, and his contributions will surely be treasured for years to come. We also spent some time kicking it with JSWISS, a talented young artist, as he announced his upcoming monthly summer residency at Rockwood Music Hall, bringing together an assortment of incredible musicians and special guests. As always, we shed light on various other hip-hop happenings in and around New York City, and discussed upcoming releases by artists such as the late Sean Price.

    Will the Real Hip-Hop Museum/Hall of Fame Please Stand Up

    Episode six of the new format, and The NY Hip Hop Report with Manny Faces keeps pushing the envelope when it comes to smart, passionate discussion about New York-area hip hop music and culture. For this episode, Manny Faces recapped outstanding recent hip hop-related happenings in and around NYC, including the inspiring and innovative #HipHopHacks event held at Spotify (at which Manny was the opening speaker), as well as an album release party for internationally touring, independent artists Illspokinn & ZaJazza. The meat and potatoes of the episode? An incredibly insightful look at the various entities who purport to be developing/building/opening various incarnations of a hip hop museum or Hall of Fame. Despite recently circulating reports about a new development planned for such an establishment in Harlem, Manny broke it down when it came to the history of the entities, and why, from multiple perspectives, while the idea of a hip hop museum/hall of fame sounds great in theory, the execution of those currently undertaking this monumental task is largely flawed, and such a project is highly unlikely to find success.

    Napoleon Da Legend, Black Privilege, NY Hip Hop Event (P)Reviews, Ticket Giveaways & More [S05E04]

    The NY Hip Hop Report with Manny Faces continued with its new format and flow, airing another episode via the Facebook Live platform. In this episode, as always, Manny Faces shed much needed light on the plethora of New York area hip-hop-related happenings, by recapping the past week (including star-studded concerts by iconic veterans like T.I. and buzzing up-and-comers like A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie) and previewing upcoming events (including the lyrical legend Kool G. Rap’s album release party coming up at NYC’s B.B. King Blues Club). Manny also welcomed to the groundbreaking new video format, the DMV-to-NYC lyrical and substantive dynamo known as Napoleon Da Legend. This talented lyricist has dropped well-produced, thoughful and head-nod worthy bangers for years, and just recently — off of the strength of his two recent mixtapes Steal This Mixtape and Steal This Mixtape Too — spoke on the concept of “Black Privilege,” both through his music, and as it relates in particular to Charlamagne Tha God, who reecently penned a now best-selling book by the same name.

    Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival, Hot 97 Summer Jam Plus NY Rap News & End Of The Weak [S05E03]

    Both the Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival and Hot 97’s “Summer Jam” released schedules and lineups in past days. Manny Faces provided a breakdown of the artists set to perform, as well as — particularly in the case of the multi-day Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival — information regarding other events scheduled to take place. The episode’s sponsor, aside from New York hip-hop’s #1 website and event calendar, BirthplaceMag.com, was End of the Weak, a staple of underground and independent hip-hop music and culture in New York City. Running for more than 15 years, and having branched out to multiple countries throughout the world, EODub continues to be the standard-bearer for hip-hop showcases and talent competitions. The next End of the Weak is Sunday, April 30, 2017 at Bowery Electric in NYC. Lastly, in his “Words I MannyFest” segment, Manny called out Common and other hip-hop elder statesfolks, for missed opportunities when addressing media about the state of “consciousness” in hip-hop music. While it is easy to critique “mainstream,” and give props to the “go-to” notable artists who are bucking the mainstream trend, like Kendrick Lamar and Chance The Rapper, to sum up hip-hop’s entire counter-culture, social justice, black empowerment and self-love to merely these two artists, does a gigantic disservice to the thousands of hip-hop-related artists and organizations that are fighting that good fight.
