Simon Rex went back to the bay area to relive the one video he will never forget, Too Short's "I Ain't Trippin'." One of the coolest rappers ever, Too $hort was the epitome of cool in this Dan Rodriguez directed video which sees him go through a day in his life in East Oakland.

"Time to blow a bag, it's that season." - @YungMiami305 🤣 In the latest episode of Sound Check with @Jeremy_Hecht, she names what the minimum net worth requirement is for a man to be able to date her. And lets just say, most of the guys who will see this have NO chance 😂

It's clear that @BustaRhymes was the gift that kept giving when it comes to hip-hop music video greatness 🔥 @juviethegreat has not been able to get the "Pass the Courvoisier" video out of his mind, due to it's blockbuster action feel and the infectious party feel!

We put @YungMiami305 in the hot seat for the latest episode of Sound Check with @Jeremy_Hecht and the heat was definitely turned up 🔥 She is forced to pick amongst these hit records from the likes of Rick Ross, Drake, Latto, Future, Jeezy, Summer Walker and much more 👀

We are sure most of the world had the same reaction as T.I. upon hearing Young Thug for the first time 😂 On the latest episode of Sound Check, the King of the South recalls the first time he heard Young Thug's music upon getting out of prison and it having to grow on him 🔥

The simplistic beauty of Kylie Minogue's "Come Into My World" music video has not left @JustineSkye's mind 24 years since its release 🔥 The Michael Gondry-directed music video has left her pleading with the music industry to open up the budget to bring back elite music videos!

The King of the South was in the building for Sound Check, but which one of these classic records reigns supreme on his playlist? 👀 @Tip must choose between hits from some of music's biggest stars in the latest Sound Check with @Jeremy_Hecht 🔥

The chokehold that @GGYOUNGBOY has on this generation has to be studied 😂 @loveislandusa Season 7 contestant Jeremiah Brownnamed NBA Youngboy the greatest rapper of all-time while chatting with @jeremy_hecht and claims his Spotify Wrapped 2025 was just YoungBoy and gospel 😭

We threw the entire kitchen sink at Jessica Williams in the latest episode of Sound Check to figure out what her true lifetime anthem is 🔥 A multitude of artists were put against each other for her to make her choice which might surprise you by the end of this video 👀

A one-of-a-kind party thrown by Tupac turned music video directed by David Dobkin made a young T.I. feel as if he were actually there while just watching from his living room 😂. "I Get Around" still has a lasting impact on T.I. three decades later 🔥

Of course @6LACK's pick for the greatest @JColeNC verse of all-time is from their song “Pretty Little Fears” 🔥 While hitting the Grammys red carpet, @Jeremy_Hecht chopped it with 6lack about Cole’s best verses ahead of ‘The Fall Off’ dropping. Which verse are you picking?👀

You aren't going to want to miss @DJCassidy's Pass The Mic Live event on Wednesday, Feb. 14 at the Kia Forum! Special guests for the night will include 🔥 Ashanti 🔥 Busta Rhymes 🔥 Lil Kim 🔥 Mya 🔥 Fabolous 🔥 Ja Rule 🔥 En Vogue

Justine Skye is from New York, so it's only right we had her pick between two Brooklyn icons 👀 Justine chose between Jay-Z and The Notorious B.I.G's classic tracks "Otis" and "Sky's The Limit" on the latest episode of Sound Check, amongst other iconic records 🔥

Samara Cyn will never forget Ciara's music video for "Ride," and we sure most of the world won't either 😅 Directed by the legendary Diane Martel, Ciara's balancing act of hard energy along while being " fine as hell" left a lasting impression on Samara Cyn to this day! 🔥

Ciara and Diane Martel were an undefeated duo when they linked up for music videos 🔥

Had a chance to speak wit a legend about everything going on. Appreciate you Elliott
