  Many people have been donating to Kool Herc’s bills. This is great to show how the whole community can come together under one goal in order to help one of our own survive. Especially the creator! However there is a select few of you all who are salty at the Labels for not footing the bill of his hospital surgery. This article is dedicated you all. See more....See more...

  I am all for supporting your living, but I am for making great music before that. When you try to put the money over the music, it does not matter if you haven’t done a song with Soulja Boy yet. You’ve already sold out. If you forget where you came from then you will lose sight of where you’re going. Listen and download....See more...

  Filed under Features, Lil Duval

  Lil Duval, relatively unknown before Twitter (I live in Long Island. Not ATL. I'd like to visit though.), has slowly risen to be one of the figures in daily constantly changing pop culture. Duval tweets continually (engulfing some with laughter and others with aneurysms) to his 400k twitter fans. On 12/26, due to the rampant rumors on twitter announcing R&B singer Teena Marie's untimely death, he tweeted her well known personal account saying, "Hey, r u dead?" See more...

  Kanye West went AWOL for six months, came back in a furor, capped a marketing campaign (I’ll explain in a few), and then dropped a classic album. Legendary stuff right? Let’s not hear that from a Kanye fan though, let us hear that from the music industry. Pay attention to trends. See more...See more...

  “Reputation takes months to build…and only seconds to destroy” This quote is true for everything that we deal with in life. You can be a perfect employee for six years up until the day you fuxk up. That is just the way life is – we have to accept these things. Chris Brown had his career flash before his eyes in a flash February 2009. In one instant he went from A list artist to exiled.See more...

  Why I’m Boycotting Kanye’s “Runaway” Movie

  I was FWD’d the "Kanye Runaway" Premiere. Of course I was planning on using someone else’s name, but it happened. I waited on line for almost two hours…and I was not allowed in. But that is not why I have not seen it yet. The moment it hit MTV, I did not want to watch it anymore. It is not because I felt that I was wronged by not being able to attend the premier; I just felt different to wanting to watch it. See more...See more...

  Jay-Z Really Does Run This Town

  The moment Jay-Z walked into the room we all knew that he walked in – no denying that. The excitement in the room subtly died down. Everyone then proceeded to look at Jay Z through the corner of their eyes. Me? I flat out stared. I even asked my contact if I could get a picture. She replied – “No! Don’t get us kicked out of here." See more...See more...

  Mickey Factz released his long awaited tape entitled "I’m Better Than You" yesterday. What’s the verdict on "I’m Better Than You"? The beats are futuristic and the rhymes are there. Factz has bars. Can he proclaim that he is better than every other rapper? No. It’s an unfounded statement. If he can’t talk to rappers like that, is he talking to us? The fan? It feels like it.

  Kid Cudi, Wale, Rare Beef & Other Assorted D-Baggery

  We have all come to grips that Kid Cudi is a different person. What once was the humble Hip Hop star has turned into something much larger than all of us expected. His comments during the Complex interview were rash and somewhat cocky – the revelation of a daughter is interesting. Is this bravado justified? See more...See more...
