The back of the week has been broken. It’s humpday, and we’re on and poppin’ with more news, audio, video and features from your favorite Hip Hop website. Here’s some cool stuff goin’ on around the web:
HipHopDX loves food, almost as much as we like Hip Hop. Sometimes better than food is food television. Adam Richman, host of Man Vs. Food on the TLC channel is particularly entertaining. Our friend Uncle Louie passed over a brief interview, that reveals that Richman is in fact a Hip Hop head – of sorts. From Public Enemy, to Pete Rock & CL Smooth, TLC’s main attraction even still plays Lupe Fiasco, Soulja Boy and Lil Wayne today. Play-lists don’t often shock us, but this one was a great lunchtime read.

One of the worst movies ever made is Groundhog Day, absolutely terrible. That’s coming from die-hard Bill Murray fans too. However, while the film is painful to watch, it has a lot of truth, and definitely has become a cultural reference in talking about repetition (and punching out a Ned Reyerson or two). The Complex homies touched on this, on the actual Groundhog Day (February 2), by looking at when rappers keep doing the same thing. Jay-Z for instance made “Hard Knock Life,” and followed it up with “Anything,” nearly setting off a Rap/Show-tunes trend that would have put us all out of job. Also (rightfully) called are are Eminem, Erick Sermon and Jadakiss. Quality points made…

Current Calls Out Calvin
We love Snoop Dogg, and he’s shown us a lot of love back. Even though we’re never allowed to really interview Snoop, but rather just talk about whatever he’s plugging at the time, we consider Doggystyle one of this company’s FAVORITE albums. Moreover, we like various other songs and albums from his catalog. However, we really wish Snoop Dogg wouldn’t be so mainstream and all. But Current TV’s Sergio Cilli tells it like it is…and we love Current TV too…
his show isnt on TLC you fucking idiot.. its on Travel Channel, man I swear everyday this site gets even worse than the day before.
sorry for the mistake we are working on fixing this asap bitch.
co sign.. to Hova.
to the internet instigator above me,,, good one bud,, keep trying to irrate ppl as much as you do your mother.
Lame ass site. Groundhog’s Day is pimp.
“TLC’s main attraction even still plays Lupe Fiasco, Soulja Boy and Lil Wayne today.”
umm maybe because its music thats coming out TODAY….. what the helll man. Pooooor Journalism. AT ITS BEST.
Groundhog Day is far from terrible,, thats strictly ones opinion, to write it in a article supposed to be journalism,, is totally wrong. stay neutral…
groundhog day rates high with IMDB…. and Bill Murray Fans lovvvvvvve it…
Man, I was about to write the same thing! It’s even the first time I hear someone say it’s not good. So to say “one of the worst movies ever made”, I mean, GTFO! It one of the few comedies I can watch over and over and still laugh my ass off. I bet the writer likes comedies with J.Lo and things like “Are we there yet”, lol.
I agree. Ive never heard anyone say Groundhogs Day was a bad movie muchless Bill Murray’s worst movie ever.
