On Sunday, seemingly out of nowhere, ESPN‘s social team lobbed a bomb Ja Rule‘s way by recalling the nearly year-and-a-half old memory of the rapper asking a Milwaukee Bucks crowd at halftime if they were “reaadddyyy???!” for his performance. Their silent response appeared to indicate that their answer was “no.” It’s a funny clip—if you’re not Ja Rule—but […]

Meek Mill confirmed Sunday on social media that he and Milan “Milano” Harris are no longer together.

Thanks in part to the acute creative inspiration brought on by COVID-19 shutdowns and an inspiringly goal-oriented tweet, Lupe Fiasco fans have a new five-song EP to devour on Friday. “Everything is manmade, and what’s more dangerous than that?” Virgil Abloh says at the end of EP opener “HOMME MADE,” which—like the entirety of the project—floats […]
