Fresh off a big win at the Minnesota Webfest, Alonge Hawes has scored another victory: He’s signed an overall marketing deal with SeekaTV. The exclusive deal expands Hawes’s relationship with SeekaTV’s digital platform, which was an early distribution partner for his series Blue Collar Hustle. Under the pact, SeekaTV will become an exclusive home for the show’s second season, and Hawes will continue to write, executive produce, and star in the series.

The news comes on the heels of Hawes landing two nominations at the Minnesota Webfest, Best Drama and Best Representation Of Communities Of Color, of which the series took home the second. The series was also recently named an official selection at the 16th annual Urban Mediamakers Film Festival.

So this is interesting maybe? Noah Callahn Beaver posted this picture of Nas chilling with 2pac in 93 at the Paladium (same event with he famous picture of Biggie, Redman, and Pac)

At first people said it looked photoshop but the original photographer says its real and part of Al Periera's gallery of pics


Tupac Shakur and Nas Spotted in Never-Before-Seen 1993 Photo - XXL

The feud between Tupac Shakur and Nas was a fairly well-chronicled one, but unlike ‘Pac’s beef with The Notorious B.I.G., the fall-out between the two has never been documented through photos. In fact, there wasn’t even a picture of them together—until now.

On Tuesday (Oct. 10), an Instagram account by the name of contact.high.project uploaded a never-before seen image taken by legendary rap photographer Al Pereira of ‘Pac and Nas together shortly before or after Makaveli’s performance at New York City’s Palladium on July 23, 1993. The image belongs to a contact sheet from the show. Classic photos of ‘Pac with Big and Redman have been seen before, but never this one.

At the time, at least two years before he’d become a “Bad Boy Killa” and a symbol of unrepentant gangsta rap, ‘Pac was more of a mid-level rap star. Nas, on the other hand, had yet to drop Illmatic, the album that would, just a short time later, make him the prince of New York City hip-hop. Both were pretty much on the brink of superstardom—and a pretty intense feud.

In the fall of 1995, fresh out of prison for a sexual assault conviction, ‘Pac launched what seemed like a war on the whole East Coast, believing Biggie and Bad Boy played a role in his being shot in the fall of 1994. Due perhaps to Nas’ Queensbridge connection to Mobb Deep, a duo ‘Pac was also feuding with at the time, or perceived subliminal disses, or a combination of all those things, ‘Pac would end up taking shots at Esco later on.

Although members of the Outlawz and Nas himself have said that ‘Pac and Nas squashed their beef during the 1996 MTV Video Music Awards, Tupac dissed Nas on his first posthumously released album, The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory.

I can remember a Nas interview from way back, where he said Tupac's favourite line used to be a bar from the joint 'Halftime' & he said that Pac used to rap that certain line to him in 1993, that was probably the same day as the photo. :ohhh:

Proud of you would be an understatement and I'm sure you already know that writing movies and television series is one of Nas' passions as well. So seeing you push for excellence is motivation for him. It is a must that men like you succeed in this profession. Continue to show the world how it should and can be done. We salute you @Ziggiy!!!!:salute:
