Big Daddy Kane

The legendary Big Daddy Kane sat down with VladTV where he spoke on his relationship with Jay Z, saying the Brooklyn boy was introduced by mutual friend Jaz-O who asked Kane if Jay could spit on a track with him. Kane agreed and thought Jay was nice enough to take on the road, and while he was never Kane’s hypeman (as many believe), he would spit a few bars for about ten minutes while Kane changed back stage. Kane says he and Jay still have a good relationship, with Hov bringing him out for Summer Jam and for the opening of the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

At Budweiser’s Made In America festival, it’s become a yearly tradition for a Hip-Hop legend to touch the stage. At the first festival, Run DMC reunited for an epic performance. This past year, it was Public Enemy. In 2014, the incredible Big Daddy Kane took the stage in Philadelphia to tear it down. The “James Brown of Hip-Hop” caught up with STASHED shortly before hitting the main stage in the “City Of Brotherly Love” to talk with us about just how he went about taking part in the festival. Moreover, he spoke about being able to connect to a younger generation by the quality of his live show and what to expect when you see him on stage. Lastly, he explained to us about some of the artists that he enjoys watching in 2014. Check out this interview with the Hip-Hop legend up top.
