Did you know Ryan Phillippe can rap? The Cruel Intentions actor and star of the USA Network's Shooter series demonstrated his music skills and talks about his love of hip-hop on the SiriusXM satellite radio show Sway in the Morning this week. "Most of my playlists are like a 19-year-old's. I listen to all the new, young stuff, everything in between," he said. "Hip-hop is the music of my life, man. It's just like, that's just it for me." He launched into a rap that referenced his "P!" arm tattoo that pays tribute to Sean Price. Phillippe got inked in 2015 a couple of months after the rapper's...

Golden Exits. © Sean Price Williams“No soul or locale is too humble,” John Updike wrote, “to be the site of entertaining and instructive fiction.” Which is a good thing for Nick, the nominal hero of Alex Ross Perry’s new film Golden Exits. The mild, meek, nearly-fifty archivist, played with greying dignity by former Beastie Boy Adam Horovitz, lives a pinched and incapacious existence, toiling ten hours a day hunched behind the desk of a basement office only a few blocks away from his Brooklyn apartment. It’s a spartan, closed-loop life, and Nick thinks it’s “thrilling”—which it becomes for a time, when a 25-year-old assistant arrives from Australia and threatens to disrupt it. Golden Exits is about that threat. Or more precisely, it is a film about what happens when order and routine are besieged by the promise of change—when the life one has accepted is beleaguered by temptation,...

Tired Moonlight, Dp: Adam GinsbergOne of the few shocks of the otherwise steadfastly low-key Tired Moonlight, a recent inclusion in New York’s New Directors/New Films program, is discovering in the credit roll that Sean Price Williams didn’t shoot it. The film arrives at a point where seemingly every new low-budget indie shot on 16mm and featuring a hitherto unsung directorial newcomer—in this case Montana-born Britni West—is graced by the eye of this particular cinematographer: see The Vanquishing of the Witch Baba Yaga, Kuichisan, Young Bodies Heal Quickly, Christmas, Again, and several others, not to mention all the work in this vein he’s done for Alex Ross Perry. Williams is certainly skilled (it’s hard to find a review of a film boasting his work that doesn’t mention his name—a rare feat for a Dp), but as of now only demonstrably proficient in...

Hear that high-pitched squealing and the pitter patter of little Skechers-wearing feet? That's the tweens.
The tweens are coming.
They're coming to see "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2."
They're coming to see it again and again.
The final installment of the vampire romance series raked in a franchise-best $141.3 million on its opening weekend (a haul presidential runner-up Mitt Romney and his wife contributed to), as well as rave reviews...on Twitter, at least. (Hey, not all of us have it in us to plan a wedding to our Edward Cullen cardboard cutout.)

We’re still waiting on a release date for the Black Keys’ Danger Mouse-produced follow-up to 2010’s “Brothers,” but it looks like we may get the duo’s second BlakRoc collaboration with Damon Dash first. A new, documentary-style trailer for “BlakRoc 2,” showed up on YouTube starring the Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach and Pat Carney, as well as Talib Kweli, U Rock, Jay Electronica, Oc, Curren$y, Wiz Khalifa, Jim Jones, Sean Price, The Cool Kids and lots and lots of pot smoke and Blackberry gazing in the studio. Apparently, they have channeled the earth, who, as the narration tells, us “scientists believe is...

The Black Keys typically keep it simple: two guys, drums, guitars and thick slabs of bluesy goodness. They also keep it quick, which explains how the duo has already recorded their follow-up to 2010's breakthrough album, Brothers, according to drummer Patrick Carney.
"We just finished making a new album. So that's going to come out either later this year or early next year," Carney told MTV News of the seventh disc from the group fronted by guitarist/singer Dan Auerbach. The band spoke to us on the black carpet of the VMAs, where they were up for Best Rock Video for "Howlin' for You" but lost out to veteran rockers the Foo Fighters.

The gruff delivery and roughneck charisma of J-Dilla protégé Guilty Simpson have made him a popular guest rapper in underground circles, but his cartoon aggression can wear a little thin over the course of an entire record. Simpson shared his Stones Throw debut, O.J. Simpson, with the trippy instrumentals of producer (and fellow J-Dilla collaborator) Madlib. Simpson’s new supergroup, Random Axe, again finds him sharing the spotlight with collaborators who play to his limited strengths. The belligerent antics of Heltah Skeltah’s Sean Price take some of the weight off Simpson, but the project’s real Mvp ...

We've had a lot of fun since kicking off our Rappers Review Movies series, whether it was involving some of the industry's most respected lyricists (Sean Price, Talib Kweli, Phaorahe Monch) or finding perfect nominal pairings (Lil Mama reviewing "Big Momma's House 3," Insane Clown Posse reviewing "Water for Elephants").
But this one, folks, is a movie-rapper match made in heaven. Mc Hammer, the hip-hop legend far too legit to ever quit, represented NextMovie at the Hollywood premiere of "Thor" –starring Chris Hemsworth as the original hammer-wielder -- and gave us his take on summer's first big blockbuster.

Doc Ish got his big break when Eminem tapped the Connecticut producer's beat to use for his comeback single "We Made You," from the Detroit Mc's 2009 album, Relapse.
Although the song was panned, mainly due to Em's dated formula of picking on celebs, the rollicking production caught the ears of many, including those who would eventually join Doc Ish for his debut album.
The producer released the digital album The Treatment late last year, with the physical product set to arrive this spring. The title is a play on the producer's ability and also his real-life health battles, including lupus and a heart issues.
Doc told Mixtape Daily, "A friend of mind was like, 'You in and out of the hospital so much, you're always with the doctor,...

To put it kindly, critics have been none too kind to the Martin Lawrence sequel "Big Mommas: Like Father Like Son."
But the "Big Mommas" comedies aren't made for old critics. They're made for young fans.
So who better to review "Big Momma's House 3" than "Voice of the Young People" recording artist (and MTV's "America's Best Dance Crew" judge) Lil Mama?
Nobody. Exactly.

Lil Mama is the recording artist behind the hit song "Lip Gloss." Watch her latest video, "Doughboy," here.

“The Fighter” has gotten stellar reviews from critics, done solid business at the box office, and racked up seven nominations from the Academy Awards (despite the dubious snubbing of Mark Wahlberg).
But what does Hip Hop Nation think of this boxing biopic about “Irish” Micky Ward and starring one of its alumni (kids, you may not know this, but Mark Wahlberg once rapped, called himself Marky Mark, hung out with friends he dubbed The Funky Bunch, and regularly dropped his pants on stage)?
That’s the kind of question we find ourselves asking at NextMovie. To find out, we enlisted one of Hip Hop’s most acclaimed and prolific lyricists, Talib Kweli, to record his take on the film.
Our only regret? Not asking how many Black Stars he’d give it out of four. (Ok, you’re right. He’d probably not saying anything at all and instead just...

Sick and tired of all your typical year-end lists ranking the best and worst movies, performances, tent scenes, etc? Then you’ve come to the right place.
In the spirit of trying something different, we enlisted iLLspoKinN and Rabbi Darkside (who you may recognize as a beatboxing coach from MTV’s “Made”), two of New York City’s most gifted freestyle rappers, to bring you the 2010 Year in Movies Rap-Up. The premise is simple: We held up flash cards with the names of the year’s 40 biggest films and asked them to incorporate the titles into a single freestyle session.
Warning: The following video contains no “writtens.” What you are about to see is 100 percent pure improv magic.

“Tron: Legacy” might be taking audiences by storm as the sci-fi event of the year, but this sequel to the 1982 cult classic took almost 30 years to materialize. Makes you wonder what other incredible movies Hollywood dropped the ball on revisiting.
Luckily, there are plenty of up-and-coming Hollywood filmmakers willing to mine the ’80s backlog to find the next untapped blockbuster.
Or more specifically, 1982.
Good thing our spy cameras — carefully placed in major Hollywood headquarters, and finally paying off — were there to catch it for this exclusive video.
See what happens when two young filmmakers pitch Harvey Weinstein (not actually Harvey Weinstein!) the next great ’80s franchise revivals.

June 9, 2010: Not many hip hop shows could match the star-power and the energy of Summer Jam, as the world’s biggest hip-hop concert returned to Meadowlands on Sunday night. The show was hosted by New York’s hot 97 radio station. It was a vivacious medley of music, remarkable for on-the-spot alliances with surprise guests and prolonged, hysterical energy of more than 60000 audiences. The music festival featured a star-studded line-up with the likes of Drake, Nicki Minaj, Cam’ron and more, as well as performances by Roc Nation’s debut artist J. Cole, Duck Down’s Sean Price, and included.

Atlanta — At Converse's second Band of Ballers basketball tournament on Saturday, the musical lineup boasted a variety of acts, from rock to hip-hop. But the action during the two-loss elimination tourney, held at Clark Atlanta University, was primarily on the court. Teams were pitted against one another in three-on-three games. Last year's event saw Jim Jones and his "Jones Family" squad taking the trophy, and this year, Jones was confident his team would reclaim the prize.
"I've been poppin' a lot of sh--, so I have a lot to lose, way more than anybody else," Jones admitted. "Everywhere we [go, we] make home. Where I lay my hat is my home. You ain't heard that song before? It's my house," the Dipset Mc taunted.
