Welcome to the weekly rundown where we (soulsupreme and marty) provide you with our top ten headlines for the week that was.

1. The Clipse leaked their first joint off Til’ The Casket Drops. The track features Kanye West and it’s kinda like a big deal. Props to DJ Khalil who dropped one the dopest beats of the summer.
2. Eminem releases the 2nd joint off Relapse called: 3 A.M. He’s so irrelevant he should rename his album Regroup…lol He is officially 0-2 so far.
3. Asher Roth got the co-sign from Eminem this week. Unfortunately, the reviews for his new album Asleep In the Bread Aisle don’t match up.
4. Following the trend of “pay what you want” started by Radiohead with In Rainbows, K-OS is letting his fans set their own prices for his current tour. Good hip-hop at a reasonable price, who would’ve thunk it?
5. Funkmaster Flex Threatens To Ban Interscope Artists. One could say he’s dropping bombs on Interscope…lol Well, it’s a good thing nothing hot has come from Interscope in a while anyway.
6. Ol’ Dirty Bastard Tribute Album next month. Here’s hoping it’s not some bastardized shit like the posthumous Tupac releases.
7. Swine Flu Outbreak hits U.S. With all the technology we have, shouldn’t we be able to quarantine this type of shit much faster? Hopefully this doesn’t become a bigger outbreak.
8. Mos Def recently performed at the Blue Note in NYC. He covered a track from 808 & Heartbreaks and, as we expected, it sounds dope without autotune.
9. Scott Storch Recovering From Cocaine Addiction, $30 Million Loss. We’re glad to see he’s in recovery and getting his life back together.
10. The NFL Draft dominated sports headlines this weekend. Three quarterbacks were taken in the 1st round: Matthew Stafford to DET, Mark Sanchez to NYJ & Josh Freeman to TB.
