Boom.

Bap.

Baseball is back in the BX.

Fresh for 11/11…You Suckas!

‘Cause when I’m on the mic I like to speak freely.

A favorite Bronx battle rhyme from the Teacher and Mr. Foxxx.

Over at Egotripland, Fab Five Freddy talks about BDP’s “My Philosophy.”

First:

Flipped:

The Teacher in his Prime.

Oh, hell yes. Classic late-night freestyle:

The Yanks have lost four straight, seven of their last eight. They’ve been back-and-forth with the Rays for first place all season, a steady give-and-take, a dance. Now, the Rays are up by a half-game. But unless something horrible happens (the Red Sox trail the Yanks by seven games for the wildcard), they are both making the playoffs.

Tonight gives Matt Garza against the kid Nova, in his biggest test yet. Should be fun. I see the Bombers scoring some runs–don’t know if they’ll haul in the Score Truck, but more than enough to win.

Time to get back to the business of being in business.

Let’s Go Yan-Kees!

Okay, so while we’re talking battle rhymes why not take a moment to acknowledge perhaps the greatest battle MC of ’em all, KRS-ONE. Dig this freestyle from Tony Touch’s classic Power Cypha mix tape 50.
