Is the Drake and K. Dot beef finally over? The short answer to that question is, yes. At least it seems to be a wrap on Drakes side. 

He had this on his Insta story over the weekend -

 

Nothing has been heard from Kendrick just yet but as far as Drake is concerned, it seems like he's putting it all behind him now. 

I guess now we just wait and see what K. Dot says or does. 

Who do you think won?

Had the chance to chop it up with Tyler Star and John Bizz about a show that they have coming up on June 28th in Hartford, Ct. 

It's going to be a talent competition with the winner getting their song played on the radio (won't mention the station here) but we talk about it in the interview. Let's just say that it's one of the biggest hip hop stations in the US!

Anyway, check out our convo to find out exactly where the show is going to be and also how to get yourself in the competition!

Ice Spice dropped a new song today called "Gimme A Light" which she did debut at Coachella.

The song samples the Sean Paul classic "Gimme The Light" and has a real NY trap record feel to it!

We're all well aware of the beef that is going on between Drake and Kendrick Lamar but it would seem that people are starting to take it too far.

In the past week there have been 2 security issues at Drake's Toronto mansion. Early in the week there was a "drive by" shooting that landed one of the security guards at the house in the hospital. That guard remains in the hospital and is in serious condition. No motive for the shooting has been established yet for the shooting. Police said that it's too early in the investigation to say if it is a result of the beef with K. Dot.

The other incident happened yesterday afternoon. It's being reported that a person tried to get onto Drake's property but was met by Drake's security. After a brief altercation with the intruder, they were able to detain the man until police arrived. The person was taken to the hospital but his condition is unknown.

At the moment it's unclear if the drive-by and this latest intruder are connected. The investigation is still ongoing and police do not believe that the two are connected.

It's my hope that people aren't taking things into their own hands with this ongoing beef between Drake and Kendrick. That's really the last thing that needs to be done. Let's keep this all to music and let the two handle their own issues. The public does not need to try and do something to either of the men out of some sort of allegiance to either. 

Maybe it's time for the two rappers to sit down and try to squash their issues with each other.

Anyone else having a hard time keeping up with all of this?

Earlier this week Kendrick gave us "Euphoria" which is a 6:23 diss track aimed right at Drake. Then early on Friday Kendrick put out "6:16 In LA" which is another track aimed at Drake. Then last night Drake released "Family Matters" and not long after that, K. Dot dropped "Meet The Grahams"

So in less than a week we got a total of 4 new songs from Drake and Kendrick, 3 of them belonging to Kendrick. Seems like he's had some stuff to say for a while and he's letting all of that out!

So, here's Drake's "Family Matters"

 

 

And now Kendrick's "Meet The Grahams" which takes aim at Drakes entire family!

 

 

Oh and by the way, Drake responded to "Meet The Grahams" on his Insta story. 

 

This whole beef is escalating super quick and it's getting really interesting! 

Maybe J. Cole made the right choice when he removed himself from this???

"Euphoria" came out earlier this week and today he dropped "6:16 in LA"!

Yes, it's another Drake diss record. No, Drake didn't respond to the last record yet.

Here's some of the shots fired in the new track - 

If you were street smart, then you woulda caught that your entourage is only to hustle you
A hundred n***as that you got on salary, and twenty of 'em want you as a casualty
And one of them is actually next to you
And two of them is practically tired of your lifestyle, just don't got the audacity to tell you
But let me tell you some game, 'cause I can see you my lil' homie
You playin' dirty with propaganda, it blow up on ya
You're playin' nerdy with Zack Bia and Twitter bots
But your reality can't hide behind Wi-Fi
Your lil memes is losing steam, they figured you out
The forced opinions is not convincin', y'all need a new route

Safe to say that K. Dot is out to put an end to Drake, any way that he can. While he admits that he's looking for "peace" in his life he says he's willing to put that on pause - 

"if the world is ready to see you bleed."

Here's his post from Insta

We're all used to Ghostface Killah teaming up with Raekwon but on the new album from Ghostface we're going to get a new duo! 

The OG Wu-Tang member has a new album on the way called "Set The Tone" and the lead single from the project is called "Scar Tissue" featuring Nas. Yes, Ghostface and Nas teamed up and the song is absolute fire!

This is Ghostface's 12th studio album and according to what he posted on his Insta - 

“HOLD TIGHT THIS ALBUM HAS FIRE SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE….”

 

Oh and if you're wondering who else is making appearances on the album then you won't be disappointed. Method Man, Inspectah Deck, Cappadon and Masta Killa are all on the album, just to name a few. 

Here's the track with Nas  - NSFW

It all started when Kendrick fired shots at J. Cole and Drake in her verse on "Like That"

Then J. Cole fired back at K. Dot and then apologized. That was followed by Drake putting out "Push Ups"

Sure, there were some other people that got involved but they're not important right now. 

Now we have a new track from Kendrick Lamar called "Euphoria"

Any guesses who he's aiming at?

Waka Flocka Flame was seen in The Cap City over the weekend.

Turns out that Waka was performing at OH-Fest at SUNY Oneonta this past Saturday along with Young M.A. and it appears that he wanted to do some shopping so he made a stop at Crossgates Mall. 

What are the odds that you ran into him at the mall?

Eminem fans have been waiting, somewhat patiently, for him to drop his new album and we finally know when it's coming!

While he's teased fans over and over about new music, including releasing new merch and his April Fool's joke where he re-released an old song, yesterday he announced that "The Death of Slim Shady" will be released this Summer.

Marshall's alter ego, Slim Shady, is a major part of why fans fell in love with Eminem when he first arrived on the scene but this could be the last time we see or hear from him. At least that's the feeling that we're all getting with the title of the album. 

Dr. Dre told us that Em had a new album coming when he made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live - 

“Let me tell you something, let me explain something to you right now: Eminem is working on his own album which is coming out this year,”

He added - 

 “And I actually talked to him and he said it okay for me to make that announcement right here on this show. So he has an album coming out, I’ve got songs on it and it’s fire. I’m actually gonna hear the entire album for the first time for tomorrow.”

That caused a bit of a stir with fans but let's not kid around here, it was pretty vague. Letting us know that it was coming out "this year" leaves a whole lot to the imagination. So with the announcement from Eminem yesterday, we can at least narrow it down to this Summer. Sure we don't know the exact date but that's okay.

GloRilla was recently arrested for DUI (Tuesday April 16th) and the video seems to be blowing up on the internet!

In the bodycam footage that was obtained by TMZ, it shows a few different embarrassing moments for Glo. She was stopped in Gwinnett County, Georgia and detained on suspicion of driving under the influence and other charges as well. 

You'll see that in the footage, Glo is wearing a bikini top and around the 25:15 mark of the video you'll see that she suffers a slight wardrobe malfunction. Earlier on in the footage you can hear her telling the officer - 

“I’m so hungry, like, I peed on myself trying to get to a restroom. I got pee on my hand.”

She's also heard telling the officer during the field sobriety test - 

“Y’all might as well let me pee on the side of the road. I gotta pee!”

When she refuses the breathalyzer test she uses the famous line that every famous person uses - 

“You don’t know who I am?”

The footage is lengthy so I already gave you the time stamp of where the wardrobe malfunction happens. If you have some time to kill, you can watch the full video below.

Here's something that nobody saw coming from this past weekend at Coachella....

Will Smith made a surprise appearance during J. Balvin's set. Yep, you read that right. The guy that slapped Chris Rock at The Oscar's came out on stage and performed for the Coachella crowd over the weekend.

Maybe you're wondering what song he did? Was it "Brand New Fun" or "Parents Just Don't Understand"? Was it "Miami" or "Getting Jiggy With It"?

Nope, he came out in a black suit and performed "Men in Black"

Over the weekend a new diss track from Drake, taking aim at Kendrick and Rick Ross, hit the internet and fans went crazy!

However, there was some questions on whether or not it was really Drake or if it was A.I. but that rumor may have been put to rest after the song was sent to DJ's from a blast service and it was officially confirmed as an OVO Sound release.

The song is called "Push Ups (Drop And Give Me 50) and it covers a bunch of the beefs that Drake is currently dealing with, including the hit he took from Kendrick not that long ago.

You better do that motherf*ckin' show inside the bitty
Maroon 5 need a verse, you better make it witty
Then we need a verse for the Swifties

You ain't in no Big Three, SZA got you wiped down
Travis got you wiped down, Savage got you wiped down
Like your label, boy, you in a scope right now
And you gon' feel the aftermath of what I write down
I'm at the top of the mountain, so you tight now
Just to have this talk with yo' ass, I had to hike down
Big difference between Mike then and Mike now
What the f*ck is this, a twenty-V-one, n-a?
What's a prince to a king? He a son, n-a
I get more love in the city that you from, n-a

He also took some serious swipes at Metro Boomin and Rick Ross as well.

Here's Drake's "Push Ups" track - NSFW (you've been warned)

From there, things heated up this weekend between Ross and Drake as they took shots at each other on the internet AND Rick released a diss track aimed at Drake as well. That track by the way dropped in less than 2 hours.

Rozzay took some serious shots at Drake in his track - -

“N****s leakin’ they records when we speakin’ directly /If we keepin’ it gangsta, when you see me you check me /White boy, I see you /I see you, yeah, check”

Of course there's more - 

“By the way, I got a lot of respect for a lot of rappers, but I got one guy, he’s my favorite person to rap with on any song, his name is Rick Ross Maybach Music /You ain’t never want to be a n***a anyway, n***a /That’s why you had a operation to make your nose smaller than your father nose, n***a /I unfollowed you, n***a, ’cause you sent the motherf**king cease-and-desist to French Montana, n***a /You sent the police, n***a, hatin’ on my dog project /That wasn’t the same white boy that I seen, n***a, when we were makin’ them early records, n*** /When you were happy to be around n****s, seein’ n****s holdin’ them sticks”

 

Here's the full track! NSFW just so you're aware

Looks like Ice Spice is stepping away from the mic for a little bit and going to give acting a shot. She's already landed a role in the remake of a 1963 thriller called "High and Low".

Now it's not a huge role, actually it's more like a cameo, but she will be debuting on screen in a movie that stars one of the biggest names in Hollywood. That name? Denzel Washington!

The movie is being directed by Spike Lee and production has already begun. Aside from Denzel being the lead for the movie, other cast members include Jeffery Wright and also Ilfenesh Hadera.

What seems to be the craziest thing about all of this is that Ice Spice hasn't even released her first album yet. That is due later this year.

It seems like not too long ago, firing shots at J. Cole was off limits in the rap game. 

Now? It feels like he's made himself fair game. Joe Budden has trashed him on his podcast for apologizing to Kendrick. Cole forgot his verse on stage this past Tuesday in NYC and now Symba took direct aim at him in a new freestyle.

Symba posted his birthday freestyle on Instagram over the Big Sean "Control" beat. At first he addresses hip hop in general but a few bars in, he goes right at Cole.

“For damn sure ain’t scared to go to war with a friend of mine/Pushing through sunset lighting up with the top down/Barbershop convos ’bout who sit at the top now/The Big 3 f***ed up, Cole gave up his spot now/Can’t say you top five if you scared to be hostile

Then he keep going!

“I remember feeling your pain when you let Nas down/But you done let Bas down and Cozz down/You done let the squad down/Can’t say you the goat if you ain’t poppin ’em/We ain’t tryna hear all them apologies/Dot told you n-ggas that he usually homeboys with who he rhymin’ with/But this is Hip-Hop and you n-ggas should know what time it is.”

 

Here's the full freestyle that he posted. It's NSFW so careful where you're listening to this.

 

J. Cole better get back on his game or things are going to get worse for him before they get better.

You'll have to go back in your memory 25 years to remember the song "All About Me" from Mya featuring Dru Hill. If you're having a hard time remembering, I'll help you out a little bit.

 

There, now that we've refreshed your memory, let's talk about what's on the way from Mya and Sisqo, shall we? According to what I'm hearing, the 2 R&B powerhouses are teaming up again to give us some new music! Sure, the two have performed together on stage a number of times in the past few years but they sang "All About Me" because that was the only song the two had ever done together.

That's going to be changing very soon. Sisqo's team says that the song is electric and is a warm weather kind of song. 

No word on what the name of the song is but it will be on Sisqo's new album called "The Exodus". Believe it or not, it's his first album in almost a decade. 

I think it's safe to say that the fans are going to be looking forward to hearing what these two are going to give us!

DJ Mister Cee passed away yesterday at the age of 57.

He got his start DJ'ing for Big Daddy Kane back in the day and was credited with discovering a young Notorious B.I.G in the early 90's. As a matter of fact, his "Best of Biggie Smalls" mixtape is considered to be one of the best ever done. He's also credited as an associate producer on Biggie's "Ready To Die".

DJ Mister Cee aka "The Finisher" was still very active in the hip hop community working at "Rock The Bells" radio on Sirius XM as well as being involved with the legendary NYC radio station HOT 97.

 

 

 

The loss of this icon leaves a massive hole in the hearts of hip hop fans everywhere.

A cause of death has not yet been given.

First, there was the surprise verse from Kendrick where he dissed both J. Cole and Drake.

Then there was Cole's response on his "Might Delete Later" to K. Dot which he ended up apologizing for and taking back.

Now, J. Cole forgot a verse on stage!

Cole made a surprise appearance in NYC at a Bas show this past Tuesday and during the song "Tribe" that feature's Cole, he completely forgot his verse. 

While he was on stage he said - 

“Y’all go ahead and help me out,”

Looking to the crowd and Bas to hopefully help him out.

 

Overall, this isn't a good look for J. Cole who just seems to be all out of sorts after the Kendrick verse came out.

Aside from the group albums that Wu-Tang has released there have been a number of solo projects that came from them as well.

From Method Man's "Tical" album to "Only Built For Cuban Links" from Reakwon. Plus we can't forget about "Ironman" from Ghostface and "Return to The 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version" from ODB.

According to Killer Mike, the one album that I didn't mention, "Liquid Swords" from Gza is the best solo project that Wu put out. He actually scored it a 10 out of 10. Others replied to his post on "X" and said 

 “To me it’s the best Wu solo project. I love OB4CL but this is just a touch better.”

Another person followed that up with - 

“From intro till the last song. Classic.”

 

So where do you stand? Of all the solo projects that Wu-Tang put out, which to you is the best?

So this past January Britney Spears vowed that she would never make another album again. 

But how will she make money? Well, a manager at OnlyFans says that she could easily make $100 Million a year if she were to join their platform. Yes, $100 Million a year! It's really not that big of a stretch considering she is always posting "sultry" videos and selfies on her Instagram.

Sources close to Britney say that she has no intention of joining OnlyFans due to the association that the site has to adult film stars. 

I'm thinking if someone told her how much money she could possibly make by joining the site, maybe she'll reconsider.

Celeste Franklyn, manager of OnlyFans, told Daily Mail - 

“According to all the statistics I’ve examined, my prediction for her earnings would be that the first month of the launch will bring a massive influx of people — possibly making her earnings range anywhere from $13 million to $18 million,”

Here's just a few examples of what Brit posts on The Gram -

On Friday I posted the diss track that J. Cole released firing back at Kendrick Lamar.

Well, over the weekend Cole apologized to Kendrick for the track and as it turns out, he might actually delete it. J. Cole was performing at Dreamville Festival and during his set Cole walked back what he said on the song.

“I’m so proud of [Might Delete Later], except for one part. It’s one part of that shit that makes me feel like, man that’s the lamest s**t I did in my fu**in’ life, right? And I know this is not what a lot of people want to hear,”

“I was conflicted because: one, I know my heart and I know how I feel about my peers. These two n-ggas that I just been blessed to even stand beside in this game, let alone chase they greatness. So I felt conflicted ’cause I’m like, bruh, I don’t even feel no way. But the world wanna see blood. I don’t know if y’all can feel that, but the world wanna see blood.”

“That s**t disrupts my fu**ing peace. So what I want to say right here tonight is in the midst of me doing that, trying to find a little angle and downplay this n-gga’s fu**ing catalog and his greatness, I want to say right now tonight, how many people think Kendrick Lamar is one of the greatest motherf****rs to ever touch a fu**ing microphone? Dreamville, y’all love Kendrick Lamar, correct? As do I.”

 

Cole also said that he would be removing the song from all streaming services. At the moment, it is still on YouTube and you can check it out HERE

I'm going to assume that by now you've heard what Kendrick Lamar had to say about Drake and J. Cole in his verse on "Like That" with Future.

If not, let me help you out a bit - 

These n!ggas talking out of they necks
Don't pull no coffin out of your mouth
I'm way too paranoid for a threat
Ayy-ayy, let's get it, bro
D-O-T, the money, power, respect
The last one is better
Say, it's a lot of goofies with a check
I mean, ah, I hope them sentiments symbolic
Ah, my temperament bipolar, I choose violence
Okay, let's get it up, it's time for him to prove that he's a problem
N!ggas cl!cking up, but cannot be legit, no 40 Water, tell 'em
Ah, yeah, huh, yeah, get up with me
F**k sneak dissing, first-person shooter
I hope they came with three switches
I crash out like, "F**k rap, " diss Melle Mel if I had to
Got 2TEEZ with me, I'm snatching chains and burning tattoos, it's up
Lost too many soldiers not to play it safe
If he walk around with that stick, it ain't André 3K
Think I won't drop the location? I still got PTSD
Motherf**k the big three, n!gga, it's just big me
N!gga, bum
What? I'm really like that
And your best work is a light pack
N!gga, Prince outlived Mike Jack'
N!gga, bum
'Fore all your dogs getting buried
 

It would seem like J. Cole has heard enough so he goes in on K. Dot on his mixtape "Might Delete Later"

Your first s**t was classic, your last s**t was tragic/ Your second s**t put n-ggas to sleep, but they gassed it/ Your third s**t was massive and that was your prime/ I was trailin’ right behind and I just now hit mine.”

But wait, there's more - 

Now I’m front of the line with a comfortable lead/ How ironic, soon as I got it, now he want somethin’ with me/ Well, he caught me at the perfect time, jump up and see.”

Nope, not done yet - 

“Lord, don’t make me have to smoke this n-gga ’cause I fuck with him/ But push come to shove, on this mic, I will humble him/ I’m Nino with this thing, this that ‘New Jack City’ meme/ Yeah, I’m aimin’ at Gee Money, cryin’ tears before I bust at him.”

There's even more to it but I'll just let ya listen to the track below and make things easier - NSFW

As if you need more reasons to listen to JAMZ 96.3, we're going to give you another one anyway. 

In early March we were the only station in Albany that was hooking someone up with tickets to see Nicki Minaj at MSG on March 30th. That lucky listener was Shaquana Stephenson from Troy. She got to experience Nicki live thanks to JAMZ and had an absolute blast! Monica opened the show and Nicki put on an amazing performance. Not to mention, Nicki surprised NYC with a special guest. 50 Cent made an appearance on stage with Nicki!

HUGE thank you to Shaquana for sharing her pics with us so that we can share them with you!

Eminem trolled the entire rap community today and posted this on his Twitter aka "X"

If you think back to when Marshall dropped some new merch to celebrate the anniversary of "The Slim Shady LP" earlier this year, fans were complaining that what they really wanted was a new album. So what did Slim give us today? Well, it turns out that it's his 1st ever album "Infinite" and NOT actually a new album.

See, this is why you can't trust anything you see anywhere when it's April 1st. 

 

The rumor is though that we are getting a new project from Eminem this year. When? I have no idea but it is allegedly coming in 2024.

On this day back in 2016, the hip hop community was rocked with the passing of Phife Dawg from A Tribe Called Quest. Phife was only 45 years old. 

If you're a fan of "old school" rap then you are well aware of Phife and his impact on the music and culture! From being a founding member of Tribe to features on other artists songs, Phife was a giant on the MIC. 

With today being the anniversary of his passing, I thought we should take a look back at his contribution to the music that we all love!

The hip hop community held their breath for a few weeks back in 2021 when we all found out that Dr. Dre was in the ICU after suffering from a brain aneurysm. Now, we're finding out that it was worse than we thought. I know what you're thinking, how can it be worse that him dealing with a brain aneurysm? Well, Dre told James Corden that he also suffered 3 strokes while he was in the hospital.

Dre told Corden, during his episode of "This Live of Mine with James Corden" podcast - 

“It’s just something that you can’t control, that just happens, and during those two weeks, I had three strokes,”

Dre says that he was confused by the medical emergency because he exercises on a regular basis and does all he can to keep himself healthy. He had no idea that he had high blood-pressure. Dre said that during the 2 weeks that he was in the hospital he remembers the doctors telling him a few different times - 


"You don't know how lucky you are"

Thankfully everything worked out and Dre is still around. While he says that the health scare didn't prompt a “significant change” on his life, it was something that that left a mark.

Starting back in February, Bruno Mars entered his 9th year as a resident performer at the MGM Grand in Vegas. Now, while that is pretty awesome for not only the resort but for him as well, the issue is that he allegedly owes the casino nearly $50 Million in debt. 

Now according to a "well placed Vegas insider" Bruno is said to be paying off that debt.

The insider says - 

"He owes millions,"

And also added - 

"(MGM) basically owns him"

It's reported that Bruno makes roughly $90 Million from his residency, so after paying his debts and taxes, he's making about $1.5 Million a night.

From the reports that I've seen, he's acquired the debt at the poker table. Either he's not that good at poker or he's just hit a very long losing streak.
