Daniel Brundage is an up and coming rapper from Amsterdam that goes by the name "Nardo SIX". One of his biggest influences was the late Juice WRLD.

While Juice WRLD may no longer be with us, there are plenty of tracks still coming out that he recorded before he passed away. Brundage was fortunate to be able to actually buy one of those tracks which was called "All In"

Brundage told NEWS10 ABC - 

“It was already a song that Juice WRLD had made that he already prerecorded and then they had a beat set for it.”

For $2500, Brundage was able to get his hands on the verse, laid his own lyrics down as well and now the song is called "Ballin".

When it came to Daniel writing his verse, he wasn't exactly sure what he should do but he was able to find the inspiration he needed - 

“I was listening to a lyric that most people had never heard and I was like, ‘Man, what should I write?’ And I hear him. He’s like, ‘Man, just write whatever you want. It’s all on you.'”

 

After all was said and done, this is the final product!

Drake was feeling some type of way over the weekend when he decided to call out some of his former friends who seemingly bailed on him during his beef with Kendrick Lamar.

Drizzy pulled up to the Nostalgia party in Toronto ready to have some fun, and even grabbed the mic at one point. If you're wondering what he had to say to the crowd then clearly you didn't read the headline of this article or even the first line that I wrote.

While he didn't mention anyone by name, it's safe to say that he's talking about his issues with Future, The Weeknd, Kendrick and I'm sure a few others.

"My real friends are definitely in the building. But I'm going to tell you. You're going to come to a point in life where people you thought were friends or people you thought were close to you, they might switch up. They might try to move funny with you. They might stab you in the back, they might do a lot of things to you. You'll come to that realization, wherever you're at in life. You've probably been there and you'll be there again, that's how life is. But look, sometimes, it's you and you alone by yourself. Sometimes it's you alone with your thoughts." 

 

What's crazy, is when you listen to the video that's below, you'll notice that there are quite a few people that don't seem to have any interest in what Drake is saying on the mic. You would think that when someone like him gets on stage, grabs a mic and starts talking, that the crowd might quiet down and listen to what he has to say but apparently that wasn't the case this time.

Marshall Mathers has had one amazing 2024!

He brought back his Slim Shady persona and released his 1st album since 2020 - "The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce).

He had a #1 song on the radio with "Houdini"! He broke some streaming records. He got to walk his daughter Hailie down the isle at her wedding.

And now, with the release of his video for "Temporary" (which dropped yesterday), he let the World know that he's going to be a grandfather!

A massive congratulations to both Em and Hailie (and the father of the child as well).

Here's the video for "Temporary" - the part where we see the baby announcement is around the 4:05 mark.

UPDATE - We now have confirmation that the rumor started by Wack 100, that Drake had a cease and desist sent to Kendrick Lamar, is NOT TRUE. Drake's rep told Rolling Stone - 

 that the rumor is “not true,” with another source clarifying that “there was never any intention or plan to send a cease and desist to anyone.”

 

 

In the past Wack 100 has made some pretty insane claims and he's at it once again.

This time he's saying that Drake has issued a cease and desist to Kendrick Lamar which would not allow him to perform "Not Like Us" during the Halftime Show at this years Super Bowl. 

 

Wack 100 also added - 

“He’s trying to get the NFL to restrict Kendrick,”

 

While Wack wouldn't say where he got the information from, neither Drake or Kendrick have mentioned it publicly as of yet.

Something else that we all need to keep in mind is that THIS MIGHT NOT EVEN BE TRUE!

The history between Usher and Diddy is well documented. There are plenty of clips all over the internet of the two together when Usher was very young and Diddy at one point said that he was Usher's "guardian".

Well, now that there is a boat load of information coming out about Diddy and what was taking place at his parties, there are things that are starting to make a lot of people ask a number of questions. Things like "what was their relationship really about?" or "what exactly was going on with Diddy and Usher at such a young age?" The same goes for the questions about Justin Bieber and Diddy.

With all of that said, yesterday, all of Usher's Tweets suddenly disappeared. His entire "X" profile was totally clear. Now Usher is claiming that he was hacked and it appears that all of his posts are now back but who knows. The timing of it all was very convenient.

Another account that seems to have been wiped clean is Pink's. There are just 2 posts on her account now, one from 2016 and one from 2017. Was she hacked as well? Did she remove her posts because of the whole Diddy situation? It's hard to tell at this point but again, it's all just very convenient.

UPDATED AT 11:45AM ON 9/18

Diddy is still trying to get a deal cut so he can be released on bail. His legal team has offered that the security team that works at Diddy's Miami home would turn over the visitors log on a daily basis to the feds. They are also saying that visitors will be limited to family, property care-takers and friends who are not co-conspirators in the federal case. Diddy has also made the claim that he would limit female visitors to his family members or mother's of his children.

 

UPDATED AT 4:36PM

Diddy's lawyer tried to claim that Diddy is not a bully or brute and seems to try and make the case that there was more to the story with "Victim One" assumed to be Cassie. I'm sure you've seen the security footage of Diddy in the hallway in a towel, seemingly beating her pretty bad. The lawyer claimed that she was going through Diddy's phone and found out that he had more than one girlfriend and that she hit him with a cell phone and took his clothing (which explains why Diddy was in a towel). The lawyer also made the claim that she had cheated on Diddy with a personal trainer that Diddy provided for her. Just so we're clear here, that still doesn't excuse the beating that we all saw on the security footage.

Once all was said and done, however, the judge denied bail and Diddy will remain in custody.

 

UPDATED AT 3:50PM

Diddy pled "not guilty" to all the charges he's facing, which was expected. The prosecution is laying out their case as to why they want him held with no bail/bond. They are claiming that they are afraid that he will "intimidate" witnesses or will try to obstruct the investigation. The feds are saying that many of the people that came forward were scared of Diddy trying to interfere. They're also concerned with him being a flight risk considering he has the money and means to leave the Country. They're also saying that there were narcotics found in his hotel room when he was arrested. Allegedly there was a "pink powder" found that had previously tested positive for Ecstasy. 

 

 

UPDATED AT 2:37PM

With Diddy facing a max of 15 years in prison if he's convicted, they claim that he's a flight risk and are asking for NO BAIL be set for the man that created Bad Boy.

Diddy's side proposed a $50 Million package to secure his release on bail. It's said that Diddy would put up his $48 Million home in Miami and his mother's home which is worth $2 Million as collateral He's also willing to wear a GPS monitor and his travel would be limited to Florida, New Jersey and New York.

 

UPDATED AT 10:01AM

Diddy has been indicted on 3 charges - sex trafficking, racketeering and kidnapping

From the indictment, which ranges from 2008 to the present, TMZ said this - 

Members of the Combs enterprise allegedly engaged in sex trafficking, forced labor, interstate transportation for purposes of prostitution, coercion and enticement to engage in prostitution, narcotics offenses, kidnapping, arson, bribery and obstruction of justice.

Also from the indictment, they detailed what was seized during the raids of his Miami and Beverly Hills homes - 

various freak off supplies, including narcotics and more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant They also seized firearms, including 3 AR-15's with defaced serial numbers and a drum magazine.

 

Diddy is due in court this am.

 

 

 

Diddy was taken into federal custody last night in New York City. 

The story is that Homeland Security came to the midtown hotel that Diddy was staying at and made the arrest. His arrest, we believe, is in connection to the ongoing criminal investigation involving him and alleged sex trafficking allegations along with other offenses as well. If you remember, this is the investigation that led to search warrants being executed at Diddy's homes in Beverly Hills and Miami. Over the past few months, a grand jury has been hearing testimony from a number of accusers. 

Diddy's attorney told TMZ - 

"We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Sean “Diddy” Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children, and working to uplift the Black community."

He also followed that up with - 

"He is an imperfect person but is not criminal. To his credit Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court."

U.S. Attorney Damian Williams has said that Diddy was taken into custody based on a sealed indictment that was filed in the Southern District of New York.

 

This story is still developing and when we know more we will update you on what we find out.

By now I'm sure we're all aware that Kendrick Lamar will be performing for The Halftime Show at The Super Bowl in New Orleans.

I'm also pretty sure that we all know about the backlash that came following that decision. From Master P. to Nicki Minaj not too mention all the fans that were upset by the decision. 

And now, Lil Wayne has broken his silence regarding the situation as well! "It hurt, a lot" is what Wayne said about not being asked to do the show. He's also disappointed in himself for not being mentally prepared for this to have happened.

Here's the video that he put out a couple of days ago.

On Sunday, we learned that Kendrick Lamar will headline this years Super Bowl Halftime show in New Orleans.

While there are a number of people that are fully on board with the choice, there are also plenty of people that completely disagree with the choice! I'm not just talking about fans, there are a number of artists that have spoken up with their displeasure with the Kendrick choice.

From Nicki Minaj, to Master P, Boozie Badazz, just to name a few, have come out against the choice. All feel that Lil Wayne, who's actually from New Orleans, should be the one who takes the stage in front of the World at The Super Bowl. And if we're being real here, they have a great argument! 

 

 

What Lil Wayne has done for hip hop and for the city of New Orleans goes without saying. The man is a legend and in some circles, considered the greatest to ever do it! Without question the man deserves to be on that stage, in his city, doing what he does best!

With that said, there are also people backing the decision to have K-Dot perform this year! 

Jay-Z gave his reasoning for choosing Kendrick - 

“Kendrick Lamar is truly a once-in-a-generation artist and performer,

“His deep love for Hip-Hop and culture informs his artistic vision. He has an unparalleled ability to define and influence culture globally. Kendrick’s work transcends music, and his impact will be felt for years to come.”

Fabolous seems to be backing the decision as well. Also saying that this is not on solely on Jay-Z

 

While the decision has been made and announced, IF the parties involved want to make this all good, they need to make Wayne a part of this show. In some way, Lil Wayne needs to be a part of this performance. I don't know what that involves or how it would work but it needs to be done!

The last time we saw Eminem open the VMA's was back in 2010 with a performance of "Not Afraid" and then brought Rihanna out to perform "Love The Way You Lie".

That all changes this Wednesday when, once again, Marshall will kick off the 2024 VMA's at 8pm at the UBS Arena in NYC! On top oh his performance, he is also nominated for 8 VMA's. If he manages to take home just 1 Moon Man this year, it will put him at the top of the list for most VMA wins for any male artist in the show's history. He is currently tied with Peter Gabriel with 13 awards. 

Eminem's "Houdini" is nominated for Video of The Year, Song of The Summer, Best Direction and more! His 8 nominations also puts him in a category with just one other artist, Madonna. He now has 67 total VMA nominations, landing him in 2nd place all time to Madonna's 71 nominations.

It would seem that we've reached the point in Kanye West's life where we blame him for everything and once you read this story, you'll understand why I say that.

A woman in Kentucky was arrested on Friday morning for allegedly trying to get into random cars that were in a parking lot. The woman, Ricki Smith, was seen walking from car to car trying to open the doors. Once she found one that was unlocked, she got into the cars driver's seat. A witness claims that he saw her and told her to leave. The witness also claims that Smith also got into another car once she saw the woman get out and walk towards a store. Turns out that there was a child in the back seat of that car. The mother of that child and owner of that car says that she plans on pressing charges.

Now the story that Smith gave police is that, she was traveling from Louisville to Evansville when her car broke down. She claims that she hitchhiked the rest of the way. 

And here's where the story gets a bit strange. Smith claims that Kanye West speaks to her "telegraphically" and he told her to steal the car. I'm guessing that she actually meant that Kanye speaks to her "telepathically" and not by using a telegraph. It's my understanding that a telegraph was what they used to communicate back in the days of the Wild West. You know, this thing - 

 

Anyway, Smith was taken into custody and upon further investigation police found that Smith had actually wrecked her car in the tree line along Highway 64 which is why she abandoned her vehicle. 

Needless to say, if Kanye talks to you either telepathically or telegraphically and tells you to steal a car, don't do it.

The hip hop community is mourning the loss of the legendary party rocker Fatman Scoop. 

He was headlining the "Green and Gold Party" in Hamden Ct. last night when he suffered a medical emergency on stage. As he was hyping up the crowd he stepped up to the DJ setup and then collapsed. 

There are videos of him collapsing online but out of respect for Scoop and his loved ones, we will not be posting that.

Fatman Scoop has been a member of the JAMZ 96.3 family for a quite some time along with DJ Mr. Vince! Their "Full Throttle" show has been a staple on Friday nights in The Cap City with the station and we are at a complete loss. We would all like to express our most heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.

If you've been to any party or club, ever, then you know exactly who Fatman Scoop is. His voice is unmistakable! He was the ultimate hype man and knew exactly how to get any crowd going. 

Our "Back in The Day Labor Day Weekend" will now be dedicated to our beloved JAMZ fam member!

Here are a couple of the songs that will help keep his memory alive -

One of Nicki's "Barbs", Tameer Peak, is claiming that she has outright attacked him on social media for quite some time and he's had enough. He filed a $5 Million lawsuit against her, claiming reputational harm, emotional distress and financial loss.

Tameer has been following Nicki on social media for around 15 years but he claims that back in 2017 things took a turn for the worse and became very personal. That's when, according to the lawsuit, Nicki went on her "Nicki hate train" phase and accused some of her fans of being moles that were sent to derail her career. Tameer being one of those fans that she accused. 

He says that at one point she invited him to her hotel room to film and embarrass him in on and IG live in front of her followers. Other claims in the suit say that he was mistreated during a 2020 Super Bowl event, she has targeted him on her X, and also saying that he was "one sandwich short of a picnic" and implied that he was on welfare. Nicki allegedly also labeled him as a "stalker" who has impersonated members of her team. 

Nicki's lawyer, Judd Burstein, released a statement to TMZ.com saying - 

“Mr. Peak has been harassing Nicki on social media for years on end to no avail."

"He has now graduated to seeking to shake her down financially with manifestly false allegations and legally frivolous claims. He will regret having gone down this disreputable road when he is forced to pay her legal fees as required by California law.” 

It'll be interesting to see where this lawsuit goes. Being that I have zero knowledge of the law, I'm not really sure that Tameer has a case but then again, maybe he does? I guess in this case, we'll find out in due time.

LL Cool J names his "Mt. Rushmore of Def Jam Artists" when he was on Club Shay Shay with Shannon Sharpe. 

Who did he put on there? He names Himself, Beastie Boys, Public Enemy and Slick Rick. Yes, those are all very solid choices given the impact that each one of them had not only on the rap game but also for the record label.

So, where's the issue?

LL left two massive artists off of his Mt. Rushmore. DMX and Jay-Z were both Def Jam artists who had a major impact on the industry. Clearly there is a group of fans that feel that those 2 should be on there.

What was LL's reasoning behind his picks? 

LL was on the Joe Budden Podcast and defended his choices. He said that he picked the artists that helped build Def Jam from the ground up.

Do you think that LL was off base in his choices? For me, I think he was spot on given his reasons for picking who he picked. He made the choices based on who built the label. The day one people. And for that reason, I think LL was spot on with his choices.

The brand is simply called "Sexxy" and the names of these new lip glosses are certainly different. Actually NSFW would be a better choice of words there.

Here are some of the flavor names that she went with - 

Coochie Juice

Bootyhole Brown

Nut

P***yhole Juice

Yellow Discharge

Gonorrhea

If I had to guess, when NBHD Nick wrote his song "Who Ready" he never thought that it would be used in 2 different videos by the US Olympic Team.

However, that's exactly what happened and Nick's international attention has been growing ever since! Both the US Track & Field team and the Men's Basketball team used his song as the sound in one of their videos and now Nick's music is gaining the attention that any artist would want. 

The Men's Basketball team used his song in a TikTok to hype this years Olympic team which ultimately went on to win a Gold Medal -

Ye is facing another lawsuit, this time over paparazzi photos that he posted of him and his wife on social media.

The lawsuit is for $1.5 Million and was filed by BackGrid USA Inc. and its British affiliate, Backgrid London Ltd. claiming that Ye violated copyright infringement by posting these pictures. He posted 10 photos on his Instagram and also on his website without paying to license any of them. 

The company is making the claim that by him posting these photos it's costing them "up to hundreds of thousands of dollars" in possible revenue. 

The company is looking for Ye to pay $150,000 in damages for the use of each photo, as well as cover the cost of the attorney fees that the company will need to pay. On top of that, they are also requesting accounting of all the profits that Ye may have received by posting these unlicensed photos.

I'm guessing by now that you've seen parts of, if not the entire, performance that Rachael Gunn aka "Raygun" gave at the Paris Summer Olympics. 

It's safe to say that she has gotten a lot of criticism or flat out hate on social media and in the media as well. 

 

"Raygun" actually responded to the hate and criticism saying - 

"What I wanted to do was come out here and do something new and different and creative — that’s my strength, my creativity,” I was never going to beat these girls on what they do best, the dynamic and the power moves, so I wanted to move differently, be artistic and creative because how many chances do you get that in a lifetime to do that on an international stage.”

Anna Meares, Australia's Cheif de mission, defended "Raygun" during a press conference, saying - 

“I love Rachael … I think that what has occurred on social media with trolls and keyboard warriors, and taking those comments and giving them airtime, has been really disappointing,”

She also went on to say - 

“Raygun is an absolutely loved member of this Olympic team … She has represented the Olympic team, the Olympic spirit with great enthusiasm. And I absolutely love her courage. I love her character, and I feel very disappointed for her, that she has come under the attack that she has.”

So you can say what you will about the performance that she gave in Paris but she had her reasons for doing what she did. Considering that most of us wouldn't have the guts to try something different on the International stage like she did, I think we should relax with the hate.

If you watched any Olympic coverage this year, you were bound to see Snoop Dogg at least a few times. From being one of the Olympic torch carriers to doing commentary. Snoop was literally everywhere and outside of the athletes, he pretty much stole the show.

So with all the coverage Snoop was involved in, why wouldn't he be part of the closing ceremony? What's crazy is that he wasn't in Paris to perform. He was back in LA, on the beach shutting it down with Dr. Dre. It's only fitting that Dre and Snoop were a part of the ceremony since the 2028 Summer Olympics will be in LA!

If we had to guess, we're going to see a lot of Snoop at those Olympics too!

For a while now we've been talking about the Cardi B pregnancy rumors. There was a ton of speculation from her fans due to some of the clothing Cardi has been seen wearing.

Today we found out that she is in fact pregnant again. Cardi made the announcement on her Instagram with a lengthy caption that said - 

With every ending comes a new beginning! I am so grateful to have shared this season with you, you have brought me more love, more life and most of all renewed my power! Reminded me that I can have it all! You’ve reminded me that I never have to choose between life, love, and my passion! I love you so much and can not wait for you to witness what you helped me accomplish, what you pushed me to do! It’s so much easier taking life’s twists, turns and test laying down, but you, your brother and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to push through!

She didn't specify exactly who she was thanking in that caption however. Is she thanking her fans? The unborn baby? Offest?

At this point, I'm not even sure if Offset is in the picture or if he's the father of the child. Honestly, that's not really my business. It's not really anyone's business for that matter. 

We wish Cardi B a major congratulations and we hope that all are healthy!
