Here are a few bits and pieces that landed in my inbox over the weekend while I was away from the computer celebrating my 33rd birthday – I’m old-school and proud, people!!

Butta Verses “Officer Ross” Freestyle

I don’t usually get too heavily involved in posting beef-related content up on Old To The New mainly because most of it’s just corny WWF-style hype – but I couldn’t help cracking a smile when I heard this new freestyle from Butta Verse’s regarding the recent internet scandal surrounding Rick “I’m A Boss” Ross’s previous career as a Corrections Officer.

Download the freestyle here but for a more accurate example of what to expect from the former De La Soul protege’s forthcoming album “Reality BV” lookout for the new single “If I Die”.
