Uli Seit for The New York Times
1. For Birthplace of Hip-Hop, New Life.
Great news! The housing property at 1520 Sedgwick Ave in Bronx — where Kool Herc basically inaugurated this cultural contribution called “hip hop” has been spared from foreclosure. Cristal, anyone?
[New York Times]
2. Highbro/Lowbro: On Harold & Kumar.
Hua Hsu on the brohannons doobie.
[Grantland]
3. Heavy D, As Remembered by Questlove.
Questo’s long and winding (and humorous and heartfelt) memory of meeting the Hev-ster.
[OkayPlayer]
4. Are These the 10 Heaviest Albums Ever Made?
From Sleep to Slayer to The White Album, the editors of Kerrang! present their picks. Rawk on!
[The Guardian]
5. McRib Conspiracy Theories.
Dissecting precisely when and why McDonald’s cult pork product comes and goes. Personally, we don’t touch the stuff… no pork on our fork! (Unless it’s Chinese sausage – pause. Damn, that shit is good. Or just bacon in general. Can’t front on bacon, really.)
[The Awl]
6. Fat Joe’s Letter to Big Pun on His 40th Birthday.
Joey Crack with some words for his beloved twin.
