MTV’s Rob Markman may bring us [really dope] interviews with some of our favorite hip-hop artists, but he’s an R&B head at heart! That being said, he’s teamed up with actress/model Kristin Coral for a brand new podcast named Red Light Special, where they’ll discuss all things rhythm and blues every week! (Podcasts are so “in” right now – amiright? LOL!) For their inaugural episode, Mack Wilds drops by to help settle a pressing debate: Boyz II Men vs. Jodeci.

(Photos+Video) Young Jeezy Brings Out Remy Ma, Future, Bobby Shmurda & More For ‘Seen It All’ Album Release Concert
Just one day after the September 2nd release of his fifth studio album Seen It All: The Autobiography, the trap star OG Young Jeezy hit the stage in NYC for a private album release concert hosted by Hot 97. The Snowman performed some tracks off his new album including “1-4 Block,” “Beautiful,” “Me Okay” and of course his smash-hit single Ft. Jay-Z, “Seen It All.” He also took us back with some oldies including “Put On,” “I Luv It,” “Tear It Up” (for the ladies) and many more. However, what made the night even more epic was the long list of surprise guests that Jeezy brought out to the stage with him. Akon, Remy Ma, Bobby Shmurda, and Future were all apart of last night’s festivities. (Even Mack Wilds made a special appearance on stage to support Jeezy!) Check out some photos and videos from the event in the gallery and below.
