Tyler, the Creator has co-signed “Life of the Party”—Kanye West’s recently leaked track featuring André 3000. The “WusYaName” rapper took to Twitter on Saturday to share a few lyrics from the unreleased cut, writing: “Straight from Shibuya” from the Kanye’s refrain, and “Hey keep rollin’” from André’s verse. He went on to give a quick shout-out to the OutKast member, […]

Consequence has come through with the new track “Party Time.” The Queens rapper teased the release on social media Saturday afternoon, just hours after Drake leaked Kanye West and André 3000’s “Life of the Party”—an apparent Donda outtake that included several shots at the OVO rapper. Consequence referenced the unauthorized drop in a vague tweet that indicated he had something up his […]

Don’t hold your breath for a Fat Joe and 50 Cent Verzuz battle. Shortly after confirming he would go head-to-head with Ja Rule this month, Fat Joe was bombarded with questions about his long-proposed Verzuz against 50. Joe Crack previously indicated he was open to the idea, saying the G-Unit boss would be his “ideal” opponent. So, why aren’t there any plans […]

Lupe Fiasco clapped back at trolls on Twitter Saturday after they poked fun at the first-week sales numbers of his last studio album, 2018’s Drogas Wave, using some poetry in the process.  “My longevity is based on inconveniencing listeners, it’s the price both of us have to pay if we gone keep it a kicker,” Lupe […]

André 3000 has issued a statement regarding the verse he cut for Kanye West’s “Life of the Party,” and Drake’s decision to leak the song Saturday morning.  André said that the initial track he received and wrote to, in honor of his late mother, did not have Kanye’s diss verse on it and that the pair were “hoping to […]

Just because Donda and Certified Lover Boy are out doesn’t mean Kanye West and Drake’s back-and-forth is ending anytime soon.  While both artists beat the leaks and delivered massive projects of brand-new material this past week—well, except Kanye who played his to a stadium full of fans three times—one leak made waves online Saturday morning, and there was no […]

Get used to hearing this phrase in the coming days: Drake has broken a streaming record. His sixth studio album, Certified Lover Boy, now holds the title for most-streamed album on Apple Music in a single day in 2021. A rep for Apple Music confirmed it as a global record for the year. According to Billboard, the […]

Drake’s long-awaited sixth studio album, Certified Lover Boy, is finally here. And given that The Boy is as patriotic as they come, showing love to his homebase every chance he gets (see: the “What’s Next” music video, the Views album cover, and his role as the Raptors’ unofficial coach), it’s only natural that his new LP is rife […]

As Dr. Dre and his ex-wife Nicole Young continue to finalize their divorce settlements, Dre has filed a lawsuit against her over claims she embezzled money. Per The Blast, Dre has alleged that Nicole Young stole money from the bank account of his ‘Recording One’ studio in Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles. The company 13849 Ventura, LLC […]

Jay-Z turned up on both Kanye West’s Donda and Drake’s Certified Lover Boy, but Chief Keef thinks it’s about time Hov put out his own album, too. In a simple tweet shared on Thursday, Chief Keef wrote, “Somebody tell JayZ drop a album n put me on dat mf.”  What makes Keef’s tweet extra interesting, though, is Lil […]
