the puff rumor is true.
but i don't know if there was ever a dollar amount tagged to it.

eyedea's new album is pretty great.
him and abilities are really trippin' this time.

and somehow, even when posting something positive about a good friend of mine, provolone15 is my new least favorite poster.

MVRemix: There was a huge rumour surrounding Puffy approaching you with a deal at the Blaze battle. Is there any truth to that or is it just a rumour?

Eyedea: Nope, he never approached me.

All sets really rocked it.

I saw the show they did in DC with Educated. Shit was dope.

Weird.

I seem to remember reading an interview where he revealed he was tempted by the Bad Boy deal but turned it down. It was in either Fat Lace or Big Daddy magazine or something.

If I read between the lines he was approached by Bad Boy, he did turn them down. Eyedea probably just got tired of that situation being the focus of most of his interviews and got sick of justifying it. Whatever his reason is, I would have walked to Juniors from Boca Raton for a cool milli.

abilities is fantastic. ive seen him a couple times in columbus when blueprint hosted hiffhop night at a local spot.

but oh man, this video is hilarious. i mean, abilities is rad, but i am distracted by the naked dancing girl and the frat boys dancing in the background. amazing.

I await the next album with open ears. The last three Eyedea albums were incredible and thought provoking. Those who don't get it don't get it. It's all about taste and everyone will always have a different opinion.

No, I was upstairs doing the interview with EC, I did get a little bit of the cypher with you, Flex, Rosetta Stoned, some of the Math Panda/Food Collective guys...That was a fun night, you going to Z Trip or Brother Ali at the RNRH?

Hella disappointed.

The first album sucked, but E&A was dope as fuck. They are really one of the best duos at combining both the emcee's and dj's creative abilities.

i went to a show in like 2000 maybe 2001 w/ eyedea and sean performing it was on a sunday and they were like we gotta hurry and go back to minneapolis eyedea has high school tomorrow. but if he was born in 1981 he wouldve been graduated from hs alrede.
