Freestyle 59 on VH1

rootlesscosmo

Did y'all peep this?I missed it (like the Hip-Hop tribute thing) 'cause I have no TV.That dood Swann won apparently.There's clips of all the finalists here:http://www.vh1.com/shows/events/hip_hop_honors/2005/vspot.jhtmlHomegirl WrdPrfct is, er, perfectly whack. Not sure about the others.Why IS VH1 going full-court hip-hop press? I guess the "real hip-hop heads" now occupy the age group that VH1 has long targeted. Which is depressing to me.

Big ups to Swann... Detroit's version of JUICE.
