After serving a lengthy prison bid this decade, Kareem “Biggs” Burke has returned home, as his friends in the streets and associates of the industry have welcomed him back with open arms. The original co-founder of Roc-A-Fella Records sat down with Elliott Wilson and Brian Miller to discuss how he’s found success, now as a fashion entrepreneur, among other ventures.

But what listeners wanted to hear, including us, was any type of stories from the quiet Harlem OG. He explained building the ROC brand with Jay-Z and Dame Dash during the mid-90s and how they eventually released Reasonable Doubt 20 years ago. Hoffa also went to touch on current relationships with his former business partners, Emory Jones, OG Juan, Kanye West and Pusha T.

However, before the nearly hour and a half conversation ended, he confirmed that he spoke with HOV last month in MSG during Yeezy’s The Life of Pablo listening session. Jigga reportedly told his long-time friend that an new project is in the works and could be his final album. Biggs quickly told his friend, “You’ve been saying this since your debut,” as the two enjoyed a laugh.

The Black Album II?

 

Mar 30, 2016

Whew another classic on the way

hoping this is will be better than the mediocre album that mchg was

If this is his def final album, he should make it epic. I want boasts about how great he is, I want super dope rhymes, I want punchlines up the wazoo and I want him to make his mark as a legend.

He doesn't really seem to care anymore and if I had enough money that I could blow my nose with $100 bills when my allergies acted up I wouldn't give a s--- either and go back to eating a filet mignon off of Beyonce's a---

Not convinced he still has it in him to drop a great album

Do not want.

Why do you think he doesn't care anymore?

Last album had a few good tracks but was nothing special. Since then he's barely released any tracks or even hopped on anyone elses. What more does he have to rap about?

 

Mar 30, 2016

be interesting to see what trend he hops on now. Wouldn't be surprised at a Future feature. Jay is a legend but not sure he should still be releasing an album.

 

Mar 30, 2016

Understandable, except i don't think he needs to hop on anyone's track. His relevance will never be in question.

 

Mar 30, 2016

Well he already rapped about life experiences, politics and even had fun for a bit... Magna Carta may be mediocre but it's got a modern sound to it that's based off of current influences... If anything I expect Jay to take it back to basics and deliver us something expected but unexpected at the same time.

No ones' questioning his relevance. Just his hunger. He's more focused on s-----y Tidal then making tracks. Don't get me wrong, I'd love another great album from him

Hopefully it's better than MCHG, but I'm excited.
