Currently in a Facebook debate on Herb's page defending the rap career of Will Smith

I actually saw him on that tour with Public Enemy (and Run DMC I believe) - Rockford Metro Center 1988ish.

Saw LoHo on CSN's STL last night. Panel was him, Hub & Teddy Greenstein. Chuck Garfein was hosting, no Kapper.

Anyway, it seemed every time Laurence spoke up or gave an opinion, Greenstein disagreed, interrupted and argued. One segment was about The Bears raising the ticket prices and LoHo was making some good points but Teddy stepped all over him.

Kinda felt bad for LH - it seemed that Teddy had a red ass on for Holmes for some reason?

Anybody know of a feud or bad blood? Or was that just Greenstein being Greenstein? I don't know enough to know...

I wonder if the new Mrs. Holmes has realized yet just what she has got herself into.

I know Greenstein & Boers used to have a rivalry, but no problems with Laurence to the best of my knowledge.

Laurence tryin to be a hip hop hipster.

Actually (raises glasses with index finger), Will Smith is....

He called the new Tribe album a top 10 ever!

I think you need a minimum of 3-5 years letting a movie or album battle the test of time before making such huge claims.

I'm going to bounce from the spot for awhile but I will be back at some point to argue with you about this hoops stuff again. Playoffs have been great this season. See ya up the road.

I'm out.

you know, if he really wanted to be a proper hip hop hipster he could try telling everybody that he saw el-p with company flow back in the 90s, since run the jewels is the go-to #1 kinda-mainstreamish-but-still-underground-enough-rap-group to namedrop so you can seem like you're "down with hip hop" even if people who read your list of top-20 songs of 2016 sprout a vagina by the time they finish reading the list.

GO BEARS!!!

you know, one night years back i remember hip hop hipster laurence reminiscing about his dorm daze back at depaul where people used to bump cypress hill really really loud..... i wonder if laurence was the guy that people would go "oh shit" if he was around cuz he'd go and tell the RA?

i remember back at UIC in the late 90s we were having a nice session in one of the clusters and there was a vigorous pounding on the door like HEY YOU MOTHERFUCKERS OPEN UP THE DOOR!!!!! it was the RA dushaynt who was like "hey [brownnosing indian girl] called me to report a marijuana smoking session going on over here and by the time i get halfway down the hallway i can smell the shit like WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?! .....you guys didn't call me?! seriously where's your fucking manners?!"

top lad that dushaynt. i was legit !!!whoa!!! to randomly run into him at a house party ~5yrs later and he still maintained "that dude" status... god bless him! #MyKindofRA

Laurence didn't stand up for himself? That seems like the kind of thing he would see happen to someone else and then talk about it on his show saying "If someone did that to me things would have gone a lot differently. A LOT..."

I'm guessing in a year or two we will hear about how Teddy Greenstein almost "got it".
