During his 2010 stint in New York's Rikers Island jail, Lil Wayne, kept a journal on the eight-month experience. Those notes became a new book titled "Gone 'Til November: A Journal Of Rikers Island."
Hot Boy Turk sat down with DJ Smallz and read a page from it. Then talked about how it related to his prison experience and offered advice that hopefully will keep others from going through the same thing.

Popular podcaster Taxstone of "Tax Season" sat down with VladTV recently and had an interesting take on Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump, and the revelation that he called Lil Jon an Uncle Tom while filming an episode of "Celebrity Apprentice."
DJ Vlad: What's your take on Donald Trump?
Taxstone: I like Donald Trump. I like open racists. I like people that's openly racist. I don't like sneaky racists. He's an open racist and I Appreciate that about him.
Vlad: You appreciate that he called Lil Jon an Uncle Tom?
Taxstone: Maybe he was right. Maybe he is an Uncle Tom. Trump gon' say what he want. I think everybody can say whatever they wanna say. I think we all should be allowed to say what we wanna say. I think we should be allowed. I think we should allowed to be racists. I think we should be allowed to express our feelings. I think if your true feelings is that you don't like a certain race, or color, or whoever ... I think you should be allowed to do that. I don't like you either, motherfucker. It's that easy. You don't like me, I don't like you.
Vlad: You're not talking about disliking a certain person because that's perfectly fine. You're talking about disliking a whole race of people.
Taxstone: Ain't nothing wrong with that. Dislike me, motherfucker. Dislike all of us. I don't care. What the fuck is your dislike gonna do to me? For other people they deal with certain sensitivities that I don't deal with.
Vlad: If you have a president that dislikes black people that is gonna do something to you.
Taxstone: Oh yeah, as far as the president, but this is the United States of America. We can't act like this has never been ... this is what it is, motherfucker. He's just saying it. How many presidents we might have had that don't like black people? I don't think [George W. Bush] ever liked black people. I agree with Kanye West. All the Bush's. Bush Gardens, George Bush, Laura Bush, any Bush.

Amber Rose held her second annual "SlutWalk" in Los Angeles on Saturday, October 1. Supporters of Rose's movement argue that the event empowers women.
Critics like Brand Nubian rapper and socially conscious speaker, Lord Jamar, believe it's immoral.
Jamar recently sat down with VladTV to discuss Rose and her "Slutwalk."
"A SlutWalk is some dumb shit," Jamar said. "That's my take on it. [It's] some stupid shit. If my son's mother appeared at a Slutwalk with my son, I'd be tight like a motherfucker. What the fuck are you doing at a Slutwalk? The shit that we embrace in this society. The shit we try to justify ... it's truly insane. And now that done give [Rose] a show and a platform to promote this shit even more."
"Sluts should be shamed," he continued. "Nobody, male or female, should be running around fucking everybody. Me entering a woman is different than a woman being entered, but that's a whole 'nother thing right there. But all of this shit about a woman should be able to do ... dress however the fuck she wants. Even if her pussy's hanging out and her ass is all out and her tits is all out. And anything that she does should be OK and she shouldn't be shamed for it? Shame is necessary in society. Shame is necessary to curtail unwanted behaviors. Equal is not identical. Don't try to compare a man's shit to a woman's shit because it's not the same."
What's your take on Lord Jamar's comments?

The latest single release “Memories” has set the tone for The Boy Illinois upcoming project "Home Court Advantage," by bringing a classic, lyrical, fun feeling that has been lost in hip hop. Illi creates a story, placing the listener in a setting where you can visualize everything he spits, from riding the "L" (CTA Train), to not making money yet creating opportunities. Although it is a short song, it is jammed with a dozens of life lessons, “Memories” takes you back to hot punch lines and unmatched bars. With a catchy hook & mid tempo flow, The Boy Illinois grabs hold of his claim to righteousness but all about success, money, being the best and coming up with his team from day one.
This week Jessenia Vice discusses JLo, Lil' Wayne, Lloyd Banks, Drake, Lil Yachty/Soulja Boy and more.

It’s been four-years since La Coka Nostra released their sophomore album, Masters Of The Dark Arts, (the groups first project without Everlast was also their most critically acclaimed project--- featured collaborations with Vinnie Paz, Sean Price & production from DJ Premier and Statik Selektah) and the music industry has changed considerably in that time. However, a few things still remain constant; La Coka Nostra will always be as their aptly-titled 2009 debut verified, A Brand You Can Trust, and the group will continue to dazzle their rapid fan-base with sold out shows around the globe with their raucous live performances.
Always known for tackling controversial topic matter, the group’s new album, To Thine Own Self Be True, finds them once again in torch bearing mode, addressing subjects that most artists shy away from. “This album was created during a time of unique and individual transformation for each member of the group” ILL Bill stated. “Speaking for myself, it’s been a heavy last couple of years. It’s definitely the most personal record we’ve made under the La Coka banner and while we’re still making music that’s hard as fuck, there’s a maturity to this latest batch of songs that makes it different from a lot of the older stuff. I notice the biggest reactions come from the songs our listeners can personally relate to and we needed to make a record like this right now, not only for the fans, but for ourselves. I got a lot off my chest on this one. Making music can be extremely therapeutic and making To Thine Own Self Be True was a rebirth and a re-ignition for me.” Slaine had a similar take on the projects therapeutic manifestation “You don’t put as many years in the game as we have without having ups and downs. We all have gone through struggle and adversity—personally and professionally” Slaine lamented. “This album was recorded as I walked out of a very dark time toward a place of truth and understanding. Music has been how I feed my family, my plane ticket around the world and a place I’ve built real friendships; but at the very core it’s a tool I use to get through life. This album is a moment in time. It is visceral and real.”
While DJ Lethal continues to oversee the production end of To Thine Own Self Be True, the group also enlisted Statik Selektah, Marco Polo, Salam Wreck (D-12, Obie Trice, Proof, B-Real, Tha Dogg Pound) & ChumZilla (from the Demigodz) and get vocal contributions from extended family members such as Vinnie Paz, Apathy, Q-Unique, Sick Jacken, SKAM2? & Rite Hook.
