As an April Fools' joke, the New York Times featured the delightful story of the ItsTheReal brothers Jeff and Eric Rosenthal. The duo came up creating hip-hop sketch comedy, moved on to podcasting, and were ultimately hired by MTV to interview a wide variety of hip-hop stars.
But just as Kanye West decided he was more than "just" a producer prior to becoming one of the great rappers of our time, Jeff and Eric have decided it's time to move into hip-hop; similar success will no doubt come their way, as will, no doubt, relationships with members of the Kardashian clan.
The tape features some pretty high-profile features, including Bun-B, Maino, Lil Jon, Freeway and comedian Hannibal Burress.
