REVISITING HOW SEAN PRICE STOLE CHRISTMAS

Back in 2012, the good folks at Duck Down Records thought it would be an awesome idea if they put a hip hop spin on “How The Grinch Stole Christmas” by inserting their own grinch into the narrative. That hairy, green, grouchy man would be none other than Sean Price. The music video was a brilliant re-imagining of the kids tale and has a number of hip hop twists such as Sean P living on Mother Gaston Blvd and Blake Ave. in Brooklyn instead of Mount Crumpet. WatchLoud put together a piece that reflects on the making of this video that you should read after watching the video.

PRHYME FEAT. BLACK THOUGHT – WISHIN’ 2

Black Thought was originally supposed to be on the PRhyme album but the unexpected death of The Roots’ manager caused the emcee to not make the album. However, with the deluxe version of the album dropping, Black Thought ends up on the remix to “Wishin'” and replaces Common with a disgustingly ill verse. If you haven’t ordered the album by now, what are you waiting for?
