...they do it? For the same reason you do it. Oh, yes, you do. The temptation to embroider an anecdote is nearly universal. Did Uncle Charlie really parade around the house stark naked when he got drunk that time, or did he just strip to his underwear? Did it really snow 3 ft. in half an hour during that storm last winter? It's a long way from this to imagining that you were adopted by wolves during the Holocaust, but you can sort of get what Defonseca is driving at when she says in her defense that the yarn...

So this mixtape derives its drama both from the claim that a Brooklyn rapper could never do justice to the realities of the Harlem streets and the implication that Jones can. Yet what...
...just maybe, because it used to be a dry ceremony. Their first award came early in the night, but by the time it came for them to collect for best album, the organizers may have regretted lifting the no alcohol rule. Watching Sharon and Kelly trying to corral four drunk 20-somethings towards the podium was, in the words of sponsor Mastercard, priceless...
