LIVE STREAM: Marcos Maidana Vs. Josesito Lopez (& More)
Click to the next page (or the above image) to get to the action.
Marcos Maidana faces Josesito Lopez tonight in the Showtime main event from the Home Depot Center in Carson, California.
Maidana (33-3, 30 KO) and Lopez (30-5, 18 KO) are both contenders at 147 right now, but this fight will possibly net the winner a title shot in the near future. The WBA Inter-continental title (held by Maidana) is on the line tonight, so the winner would be in a good position to possibly fight for the WBA belt by the end of the year.
Opening the SHO broadcast will be junior middleweight prospect Jermell Charlo (20-0, 10 KO) taking on veteran Demetrius Hopkins (33-2-1, 13 KO), the unheralded nephew of Bernard. Demetrius is a decent operator on his better nights, so he’s a decent test for Charlo, but nothing special.
DJ Paul Confirms Three 6 Mafia ‘Reunion’…..Without Juicy J
allhiphop.com/2013/06/06/exc… Nice article but fyi everyone, @damafia6 is not a Three 6 Mafia reunion.If its not al… tl.gd/m0566a
— DJPAUL THREE 6 MAFIA (@DJPAULKOM) June 6, 2013
The above message by DJ Paul (fully quoted below) is in response to the noted article by AllHipHop that announced the reunion of one of the biggest groups from the South (and in Hip-Hop, period). Apparently, even though Juicy J will not be a part of the project (and the group will have a different name), there’s no bad blood between the two:

Shakka (@iAmShakka) – Spin (Video)
New visual from Shakka’s Tribe EP, released 5th July:
“Tribe – the kids in school who didn’t fit in a particular category, but who just were. Not the ‘nerds’, or ‘hipsters’, or ‘jocks’, or sportsmen, or bullies. Just the kids who liked a bit of everything. Eventually they formed their own tribe. This EP is an indirect homage to the tribe”.

RECAP: Hot 97’s Summer Jam XX
By: Jamoris Vincent
The 20th Anniversary of Summer Jam went down this year at Met Life Stadium in New Jersey. Joe Budden was the opening act of 2013’s Summer Jam, which made sense, since he was in his hometown. Joe Budden ran through a few of his classic records, including one of his bigger hits “Pump It Up”. Joe Budden also brought out Tank & Joey Ortiz during his set.
Second to hit the stage was Miguel, and he opened his set with “How Many Drinks” before bringing out his homie from the Carolinas — J.Cole — to perform his hit single “Power Trip” from his upcoming album Born Sinner. Miguel then dedicated the next few records for the beautiful ladies in attendance: he performed a crowd favorite from his album, “Pussy Is Mines”, and then performed another one of his hits, “Adorn”. If you thought J.Cole was the only surprise Miguel had under his sleeve, you were wrong. Miguel ended his set and brought out Mariah Carey to perform her new single “Beautiful”. The crowd went crazy after they heard Mariah’s voice over the beat to the song. Some people thought that Mariah didn’t sound that great during her performance; I thought she sounded amazing.
