There aren’t many rappers who were present during the inception of the road rap scene that are still making music today, over a decade later. So much has changed since that time, from listening to songs via CD or sending them to your friends via Bluetooth, to easily accessing music on YouTube or streaming services […]
The racketeering case against Daniel “6ix9ine” Hernandez, his former manager Kifano “Shotti” Jordan, and six other co-defendants took another slow step forward on Tuesday afternoon. The biggest news is that 6ix9ine had to drop his main attorney (though possibly only temporarily), but the hearings also dealt with jail conditions, the government shutdown, and much more. […]
You could almost forgive anyone for making hyperbolic proclamations after watching the Warriors run out their absurdly talented/borderline unfair new starting lineup Friday then blow the doors off the Clippers. We weren’t going to go too crazy since Los Angeles, real talk, has been playing some of its worst basketball of the season in the […]
When fans looked at the production credits to Future’s brand new album Future Hndrxx Presents: The WIZRD, they noticed something unusual. Seven of the project’s songs were either produced or co-produced by Freebandz in-house beatmaker ATL Jacob, by far the most by a single collaborator. Jacob, 20, has been in the Freebandz record label orbit for the […]
2007-2014: UK rap’s golden years. Before the arrival of J Hus, Dave, Fredo, and the entire drill scene, the likes of K Koke, Blade Brown and Youngs Teflon were flooding the UK streets with lyrical heat, setting the blueprint for what would essentially become British gangsta rap or—for those that know—simply ‘road rap’.

Anthony Davis is the rock that will make major waves through NBA waters as his future stands to swing the league’s balance of power. At 25 years old, AD is poised to change the fate of a franchise and conceivably deliver multiple banners if the struggling Pelicans actually decide to deal him before the trading […]
Paris Fashion Week men’s kicks off today, and you know what that means: Brands will present their latest collections; celebrities will sit front row; social media will be flooded with a ton of blurry photos and videos of models walking down the runway. Last season, Louis Vuitton, Dior Men, and Celine were the most anticipated […]
Less than four months after quitting his job as a janitor to pursue a career as a videographer, Seattle native Chase Fade finds himself at the current epicenter of rap. In the days leading up to the making of Dreamville‘s compilation album Revenge of the Dreamers III, a plan was hatched to document the experience, and Fade’s work […]
If you scroll through Megan Thee Stallion’s Instagram page, one thing becomes immediately clear: The girl is a fucking knockout. While I knew what she looked like from the internet, and fully understood her branding as the “H-Town Hottie,” I was still taken aback when the Houston rapper, born Megan Pete, walked into the Complex […]
In 2018, YOU was one of the most slept on—and most fun—shows of the year. It premiered in September, on a regular degular cable channel, Lifetime, and the season one finale aired a staggering nine weeks later in mid-November, a release and rollout straight out of 2011. One short week into 2019, though, anyone who wasn’t […]
