DMX Attacked During Performance [VIDEO]

During his live show at Long Beach's Cafe Sevilla, a fan jumped onstage and attempted to attack DMX .  Thankfully, security caught him in a choke hold almost instantly and allowed for the show to go on.  Watch the full incident below, and help me out here.  Did the assailant (over-dramatic word) have a weapon in his hand when he went after DMX's neck?

Common - Raw (How You Like It) [Music Video]

"Raw (How You Like It)" marks the fourth The Dreamer / The Believer music video from Common, and he's tapping his inner gangsta and inner sex symbol to scam his poker opponents and get the girl at the end.



Definitely including this in the next Gangstas Use Emoticons Radio.

Grafh - Sinning Again [Music Video]

Grafh's 2010 mixtape From The Bottom has so many standout tracks that he's still cranking out visuals from it.  Check out the music video "Sinning Again" where the emcee nears his wit's end with life.  Watch below to see how Grafh copes with the pain, and hit G.U.E. up later today to hear his contribution to DJ Tedsmooth's ReTox!

Dawn Richard - SMFU (Save Me From U) [Music Video]

Dawn Richard's solo debut album GoldenHeart is getting closer and closer to being released, and I'm so excited.  After her Making The Band, Danity Kane, and Dirty Money days, I feel like her solo success is destined.  In the music video to "SMFU (Save Me From U)," Dawn is pouring her heart out on this song, and the visuals definitely reflect that.  She's killing the dance moves as usual, too.

Rick Ross - Bag Of Money feat. Wale & Meek Mill

Look who's missing on that list...

Rick Ross has been dropping bombs today! First he released the official tracklisting that looked better than the track list for a typical album, and now he has a brand new song featuring Wale and Meek Mill that will appear on the upcoming compilation mixtape MMG Uncut.  Just because Maybachs have been discontinued, doesn't mean that MMG's going anywhere!

Jesse Boykins III - Zoner (Demo) [Music Video]

Chicago Born singer Jesse Boykins III split his life in Jamaica, Miami, and New York, and this diversity definitely shines through in his music.  Check out the body-painted visuals to his Way Of A Wayfarer demo "Zoner" below and get familiar with Jesse's Love Apparatus after the jump by downloading his latest EP!

Copywrite - Swaggot Killaz feat. Jakki Da Mota Mouth [Prod. by !llmind]

MegaHertz crew emcee Copywrite is the self proclaimed "best rapper to say best rapper," and after checking out "Swaggot Killaz," he may have a point.  Despite many highly publicized beefs, and tons of acclaim on some of Hip Hop's largest publications, the Columbus, Ohio rapper is still as underground as ever.  All I know is, don't sleep on God Save The King when it drops this February.
