On this episode of The Real Report, Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda sit down with Bronx-born music video and TV director Eif Rivera, who breaks down his journey from graffiti and camcorders on 164th and Sheridan Ave to becoming one of the most trusted directors in hip hop and Hollywood. Eif details his long creative partnership with 50 Cent, the untold story behind brokering the peace between 50 and Fat Joe, and how working video after video with 50 ultimately opened the doors to 'Power,' 'For Life,' and music videos with Kendrick Lamar, Drake, French Montana, Nicki Minaj, and more. He also shares the full story of landing Al Pacino for his upcoming film 'Killing Castro,' including the nerve-wracking dinner where Pacino name-dropped every director he'd ever worked with before telling Eif that it was rappers that saved his career. Eif also reveals his next project, a Kimbo Slice biopic where 50 was offered the lead role.

Fat Joe and Jadakiss sit down with Angela Renee Simmons, who pulls up to Joe and Jada to talk about her new single “Run To,” a record featuring Jada and Resa about mental health, faith, and finding your way through the maze. Signed to Rough Riders, Angela breaks down what inspired the song, what her creative process looks like in the studio, and why she's been working on music for over two years before putting anything out. The conversation gets real when Joe opens up about his own two-year battle with depression, living in a bungalow at the Delano while fighting his mind, and spending years talking friends off the ledge at 6 in the morning. Angela shares what it was like growing up as Rev Run's daughter and the moment she recognized her father was a rap superstar. Joe also tells the story of the first time he heard Run DMC in junior high school and watched a thousand Bronx kids all look at each other at the same time knowing hip hop had changed forever.
