The Roots “Stomp”
Video Directed, Shot & Edited by Clifton Bell for www.ghettonerd.com
Undun is an existential re-telling of the short life of one Redford Stephens (1974-1999). Through the use of emotives and Redford’s internal dialogues the album seeks to illustrate the intersection of free will and prescribed destiny as it plays out ‘on the corner’. Utilizing a reverse narrative arc, the album begins as the listener finds Redford disoriented–postmortem–and attempting to make sense of his former life. As he moves through its pivotal moments he begins to deconstruct all that has led to his (and our own) coming undun.
Lil Kim Writing New Book and Documentary
Brooklyn, New York rapper Lil’ Kim has announced that she is working on a brand-new book and a documentary.
According to Lil Kim, the untitled release may come as a package, which will focus on her life, as well as her “comeback,” after serving a year in federal prison.
During an interview with Kay Slay’s Street Sweeper Radio on Shade 45, Lil Kim revealed details about the book/documentary.
“It’s going to be released with my book ‘The Price of Loyalty’,” Lil Kim revealed. “I am not sure if I’m going to separate that documentary from that book. That’s what we’re trying to figure out right now.”
Lil Kim served a year in a Philadelphia federal prison, for lying to a grand jury about her knowledge of a broad daylight shootout.
The violent incident took place in front of Hot 97, during an altercation with Foxy Brown’s crew and members of Capone and Noreaga’s entourage.
The release will detail the rapper’s life after the incident and the trials and tribulations she faced while going through her various legal issues.
“I’ve been independent, you know I left my record company two years ago. I was in another situation and that’s going to be in the documentary as well and why it took so long,” Lil Kim said. “I’ve been doing everything myself and quite frankly, for me to not have the backing, or the budget that I used to have, for me to be able to still move the way I move and be relevant the way I am, I feel blessed.”
This is not Lil Kim’s first attempt at writing a book.
In 2008, Lil Kim was sued by Simon & Schuster for failing to deliver her memoirs to the book publisher.

Snoop Dogg x Wiz Khalifa Mac & Devin Go To High School Cover
Here’s the cover to the soundtrack of Snoop and Wiz’s upcoming movie.
Below is a synopsis of the film. Music release date December 13th.
The film, set in a Los Angeles high school, sees Valedictorian hopeful Devin Overstreet (Wiz Khalifa) struggling to pen his graduation speech when it becomes clear that all his academic overachievements have left him with little to no real-life experiences. He finds an unlikely inspiration in the least-achieving student on campus, Mac Johnson (Snoop Dogg.) Mac, a 15-year senior and consummate ladies man, is smitten by the school’s new substitute chemistry teacher. He soon realizes that the only way he’ll truly have a chance with her is if he finally graduates high school. In 3 weeks time, Mac must cram four years of high school academics, while Devin must cram four years of teenage experience.
