Mikkey Halsted & Twista perform for the kids

Always great to see things like this. Mikkey Halsted and Twista joined forces for a surprise performance for an Illinois Department Of Services initiative on youth violence. The young kids came out for the 2nd annual Safety Networks Youth Town Hall Meeting and in addition to  the above performances by Mikkey and Twista, the kids received giveaways like laptops and mp3 players, and more knowledge from the two Chicago artists as well as CLTV's and ChicagoNow fam Garrard McClendon. Watch the videos above and get an even clearer look at the event through the eyes of Mikkey Halsted himself at mikkeyhalsted.com.

Down below wraps up the weekend's new music and videos as YP drops another solid freestyle for DJ Booth to lead a trio of tracks that also boast decent R&B records from Jagged Edge and James Fauntleroy. A couple videos featuring Common on MTV2 and an Ice Cube premiere can be seen below, before another gallery of pics with J-Lo and Kanye West's L.A. home on the market. Enjoy!
