RIP Pun. Happy Birthday Dilla.

With today marking the 12th anniversary of Pun’s untimely passing and what would have been Dilla’s 38th birthday, I figured it was a good time to bring back a project we did with Cookin’ Soul a couple years ago to help pay homage to both the fallen legends. Big Pun raps. Dilla beats. It gets no better. Tracklist/download link after the jump.

Cept freemason symbolism in hip hop music videos has been around before youtube or the internet was even around.

OK, let's see some examples. Must be before 1988 if you really mean "before the internet" (and that's being generous-the internet in some form has been around since the 70s)

In either case it does not change what I said, in the case of Kanye and Jay Z. Especially Jay Z who is the first to jump on any trend to keep himself relevant.

Sorry I meant mass internet use. Meaning late 90s early 2000s. Before the "youtube" era.
Hip hop wasn't marketed heavily before the 90s.
And these are the only 2 I can think of off the top of my head.

I must be missing something. All I see in that Snoop video is typical gangsta rap imagery (shootouts, hospitals, big pool parties with hos. I think that closeup of the evil demon eyes is a very big stretch to call it freemason imagery.

The other video is interesting, but to me it just seems to be general anti-Christian, Satanic imagery. It's important not to confuse "satanism" with "freemasonry". Freemasons encourage belief in a Supreme Being of the individual's own choice, and equating freemasons with satanists is pretty ill-informed even if some freemasons may believe in Satan.
