Merry DMXmas everybody! Here's a video of DMX singing 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.' We aren't really sure how to top this, so we're just going to replay it a bunch. Yeah! C'MON!
Bun B's Jumbo Coloring and Rap Activity Tumblr is a great way to pass some time, especially if you have a printer and some crayons. Each entry is a coloring book version of a rapper. Some are also activities, like connecting the dots to draw 2Pac's bandanna, or giving Drake eyebrows.

With only a few weeks of summer left, 'Hot Cheetos and Takis' by the Y.N. Rich Kids still has time to be our jam of the season. It's a song with a universal message, something to unite us all in these divisive times -- spicy junk food is so very, very delicious. And crunchy. And it stains your fingers.
