Rap star Travis Scott is slowly working his way back to performing.
The embattled rapper hopped on the stage during a celebrity-filled pre-Oscar party in West Hollywood.
TMZ caught footage of Trav’s return to the stage during a brief set where he rapped and DJ’ed.
Several A-listers were in the room to watch Travis pick the microphone back up for the first time and almost 7 months.
Celebrities who watched Travis rock included Leonardo, DiCaprio, Tyga, Venus and Serena Williams, Tobey Maguire, and others.

Travis may have been shaking off the rust since his hiatus from performing after the AstroWorld tragedy.
Travis Scott was headlining his event in Houston, Texas, on November 5th when the crowd surged, resulting in 10 fatalities and hundreds of injuries.
The youngest of the ten victims was nine-year-old Ezra Blount, while the oldest was 27. Around 300 people were injured and treated at the festival site, and 25 were taken to hospital.
Officials announced that the people killed at the event died from compression asphyxia, meaning they could not breathe due to external pressures on the body.
The 2022 Coachella Festival is slated to begin on April 15th. Billie Eilish is headlining on April 16th and 23rd, while Kanye West is atop the bill on April 17th and 24th.
Kim confirmed Pete had honored her with the body art on a promotional run for her upcoming series on Hulu, “The Kardashians.”
“(It) isn’t a tattoo, it’s actually a branding,” Kim Kardashian said during an interview with Ellen DeGeneres, making a stamping gesture. “Because he wanted to do something that was really different. (Pete told Kim), ‘I don’t want to be able to get rid of it or to cover it up, and I just wanted it there as like a scar on me.'”
In addition, Kim disclosed that Pete, 28, has several other tattoos devoted to her.
“He has a few tattoos, a few cute ones, that he got,” the 41-year-old revealed, indicating that the actor has at least three new pieces of body art. “(They are) cutesy things…my favorite one… says, ‘My girl is a lawyer.'”
Kim and Kanye, 44, started dating in 2012 and tied the knot in May 2014. They have four children – North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.
After filing divorce proceedings in February 2021, a judge declared Kim legally single. The mother-of-four started dating Pete last November.
Kim Kardashian discussed how difficult it was to be pregnant and in the public eye while pregnant with North, her daughter with Kanye West, in 2013.
During an appearance at Vogue’s Forces of Fashion conference in New York, the reality TV star revealed she was hurt by the nasty comments aimed at her weight gain.
“(I remember) the whole experience of being pregnant in the spotlight, how nasty people were to me in the press for gaining weight while pregnant, (but) you get to a place where you realize it doesn’t matter,” the 41-year-old continued.
Kim Kardashian has since discovered that she does not need to waste time pondering what other people think.
“It took me until recently to reach that point, but you do figure it out. (Eventually) you get to this place where you don’t care, even though there are all these messages about you. It can be hard to take the high road and avoid correcting the narrative.”
“North is very opinionated when it comes to what I’m wearing,” Kim Kardashian said of the eight-year-old. “She’ll always complain when I’m wearing too much black. I showed up at her school on Valentine’s Day wearing head-to-toe pink, and she got so excited she ran over and hugged me.
“(Of course), she opened my coat, saw the black lining, and says ‘Mom, you’re still wearing black.'”
Lizzo knows she has a hit on her hands when her friends start twerking to a track.
During an appearance on “The Late Late Show” with James Corden, the “Juice” hitmaker offered fans a preview of her upcoming song, “About Damn Time.”
In addition, host James asked Lizzo to whom she goes for honest feedback about her new music.
“My friends. They’ll tell me. They’ll be like, ‘This ain’t it girl.’ Or once they start twerking, I’m like, ‘This is it,'” she replied. “And then, I play it for my mom. But she is last to hear it because she is a Virgo woman and she’s a harsh critic… but she cried, she loved it.”
Lizzo didn’t confirm the release date for the track, or divulge when she plans to release her fourth studio album, which she recently completed.
In related news, Lizzo is celebrating the release of her new show “Watch Out for the Big Grrrls,” which just debuted on Amazon Prime.
The show follows the rap star as she searches for women to join her as backup dancers. And the new show on Amazon is just one of several power moves she is making.
According to Lizzo, she has a massive deal in the works but has yet to reveal more details.
“I know what y’all thinkin.. ‘damn lizzo you just announced a TV show… A single… and SNL,” Lizzo said referencing her upcoming appearance on the hit show on April 16th.
“Now what??’ But y’all don’t understand- I can’t be stopped,” Lizzo stated confidently. “This is my season. I’m about to be everywhere and I’m about to announce the biggest thing YET. Bigger than anything I’ve ever done. 3 years in the making. A Dream Come True. Stay tuned b####.”
Even though J. Prince, Damon Dash, and Kanye don’t believe winning Grammy awards should matter to artists in the Hip-Hop community, there are still those who value the golden gramophone trophies.
One example is Nas’ producer, Hit-boy, who has won three out of his nine nominations for producing for artists like Jay-Z, Ye, Nipsey Hussle, and Nas.
During a recent interview with ABC News, Hit-boy was asked if he believed the Grammys still matter, especially considering some of his peers talking about canceling it and Kanye, one of his friends, being disinvited because of his erratic behavior.
Hit-boy said, “It’s a little extra stamp of all the hard work you put in. You don’t just get one of these by just playing around. You have to be at the top of the top. It’s like the NBA Finals or the Super Bowl.
“It’s that extra piece of motivation to know you’re doing the right thing musically,” he said. “The nominations alone. But winning with Nipsey, winning with Nas, I have real meaningful Grammys. Kanye West and Jay-Z. I didn’t win by just playing around. I made some records that will stand the test of time.”
As reported by AllHipHop.com, J Prince blasted the ceremony saying it has a “slave master” mentality around it, and called for artists to stand in solidarity against The Recording Academy.
“I’ve been watching the Grammys control and dictate our culture to their benefit up close and personal for the past 30 years,” J Prince said. “And all the artists, managers, and executives would do is complain, but never have the nuts to come together to do anything about it.”
“This is a slave master, punish a n#### mentality and act to remind us that no matter how much money we have, we’re still n##### in their eyes,” J Prince continued.
“I recommend that the artists I mentioned above—and more—come together in Las Vegas and perform at the same time as the Grammys on a special network and streaming platform to prove that ratings will change where the Grammys are concerned when the No. 1 selling genre in music—hip-hop—come together,” he said. “Because there’s power in numbers.”
He then concluded, “The powers that be will be mad at me about this one. But f### ’em! I love the culture. The seed has been planted; let’s water it.”

Allhiphop:How would you describe the music that you typically create?

WesPalmRich: Man, I was less than 20 years old facing my 3rd arrest for some potential weed s###. By nothing but the grace of God, what I was transporting wasn’t located during the search of my vehicle but I still faced some consequences that could’ve had me sitting down for a little bit.
Allhiphop:What is the best advice you’ve been given?
WesPalmRich: “If you know something that can help another man change the trajectory of their family’s life and his future, and you don’t share that information…. You selfish.“
~ Eric Thomas

We will single-handedly help foster an era where true dynamic creativity thrives and people feel inclined to share their vast spectrum of talents with the world.
Lesane is in his own lane, creating his own sound on his own terms. Hailing from a small town called Handsworth in the heart of Birmingham, England, the rising star creates his own version of emo trap, with an undeniable knack for melodies and heartfelt lyricism.
Listing Chief Keef, Tupac, Kendrick Lamar, 50 Cent, and Michael Jackson as his biggest influences, LESANE made the conscious decision at 14 years old to commit to his music career, eventually dropping out of school and moving to New York City to pursue his dreams.
In describing himself, LESANE states he’s “the world’s best kept secret.”
Upon hearing any of LESANE’s songs, you’re immediately drawn and sucked into his musical soundscape. It’s refreshing, it’s unique, and it’s versatile. To date, LESANE has been releasing a slew of music for his growing fanbase, seeing much success with his breakout single “Don’t Do Drugs” which has accumulated over 8.6 million streams to date.
Fast forward to today, the 24-year-old returns with his newest single titled “Love (Boo Thang),” which holds fans over until the release of his forthcoming project titled GENRELESS.
AllHipHop: How are you doing?
LESANE: Still alive. Still breathing. Just drinking some tea.
AllHipHop: How is it over there in Birmingham?
LESANE: Mundane.
AllHipHop: How would you describe your sound?
LESANE: I try to be fluid. I don’t like to operate in the same realm so I try to do as much as I can in terms of creating different sounds.
AllHipHop: What was it like growing up in Handsworth?
LESANE: I always felt like an outcast. I always felt like I wanted to express myself differently from how people usually express themselves. It was a lot of character building. It was tough. It was rough, but it was a good story building moment.
AllHipHop: When did you fall in love with music?
LESANE: I remember one time when I was a kid, my cousin Chami saw me making melodies and tapping on tables. He said “Yo, one day you’re gonna be a musician.” When he died, that just replayed in my head so I said “okay, maybe I should become a musician.” I also knew I didn’t want to do the typical school route and figuring it out that way, so music just became the path that I was most passionate about.
AllHipHop: Talk about moving to New York City to pursue your dreams.
LESANE: New York was sick. It gave me perspective, because I was operating under the collective consciousness of Handsworth. I used to think that life was only as big as where I was from. Going to New York changed my perspective because it’s like, “Oh, there’s so many different people out there and everyone has their own perspective.” New York is filled with so many different types of people. When you’re having conversations with people, you can see the difference, especially when you’re from a small town. New York was a dope part of my life because it showed me that if you want to figure something out, you have to put your work in and eventually you’ll figure it out.
AllHipHop: How’d it feel to drop out of school? What did your parents think?
LESANE: My parents didn’t know I dropped out of school. I dropped out of school at the beginning of the year. I’d leave the house every morning and act like I was going to school, but I wasn’t. I was just going out, speaking to girls and stuff. But when my mom found out. she was going crazy. She didn’t approve of the music stuff in any way. Over time, she started hearing the music and she started seeing how serious I was. She just started supporting heavy.

AllHipHop: What inspired your song “Houdini”?
LESANE: “Houdini” and “Don’t Do Drugs” was me tired of not expressing myself the way I wanted. So those were the two records I made that were completely different from what I usually do. It was fun. It was sick. That showed I can make records outside of what I’m used to. Make it still sound cool, even though those two records are foundational in terms of my sound. “Houdini” and “Don’t Do Drugs” were the beginning of where the Genreless tape ended up sounding like. Genreless is like punk rock, pop music, but the foundation of it was “Don’t Do Drugs” and “Houdini.” Because that’s when I said I’m done expressing myself in a limited way. I’m a do whatever I want, whenever I want. [snaps]
AllHipHop: How was it shooting with Nicholas Jandora?
LESANE: Nicholas is a good guy, him and the team were great. They’re so easy to work with. We got the video done ASAP.
AllHipHop: How did you guys link originally?
LESANE: I think it came from Patrick. Patrick sent me some of his stuff and I said, “Yeah, we’ve got to get him on a video.” Patrick is marketing at UM (UnitedMasters).
https://youtu.be/yaaKon0993k
AllHipHop: Talk about your new song “Love (Boo Thang).”
LESANE: It feels good man, it’s good. It’s always good to have new records out. I’m just excited to keep pushing music.
AllHipHop: Is there a certain female that inspired this record?
LESANE: I just wanted to create something that was wholesome for couples. I wanted to drop it for Valentine’s Day so couples could live with it. One day, it’s going to be the Valentine’s Day soundtrack.
AllHipHop: Is there rock influences in this record?
LESANE: I don’t think I’ve ever had any rock influences, that’s why it’s weird I make the type of music I make. Most of my influences are rappers:. Travis Scott. Kanye West, Bob Marley, Tupac. Biggie. Michael Jackson. It’s weird for me to end up making rock music. I used to see rock songs on the TV, but that’s about it. The first rock band I ever heard was Neck Deep and I was about 19.
AllHipHop: What can we expect from the music video?
LESANE: I’d rather not say anything. I rather people watch it and create their own perspective on it. I’m just excited to get another video out. I’m excited to get all the videos out.
AllHipHop: What do you want fans to get from your story?
LESANE: That I’m just a kid that’s expressing himself in his bedroom. Just a normal guy, making normal songs. Talking about how i feel in hopes to find people that relate.
AllHipHop: 3 things you need in the studio?
LESANE: Just a laptop and microphone, and we’re good to go.
AllHipHop: What can we expect from your new album, Genreless?
LESANE: Music that you wouldn’t expect from some who’s from where I’m from. Genreless is expressing yourself through different sonics and sounds, without being restricted to anything specific.

AllHipHop: I think I saw you play the guitar too?
LESANE: I’m actually learning to play the guitar. I’m still in the early stages trying to figure it out. It’s hard, but it’s a fun process.
AllHipHop: What do you like to do when you’re not making music?
LESANE: Think about what song I want to make next. [laughs] There’s literally nothing else that I do apart from make music.
AllHipHop: How’s the independent grind?
LESANE: It’s fun. It’s a lot of character building. It’s a lot of trials and tribulations… Life’s a process, everything always unfolds how it’s supposed to. What I’m learning is you can’t really expect to reach greatness without going through the grind. You gotta put the work in to build a foundation that will last.
AllHipHop: Do you have any goals for yourself?
LESANE: I hope to find myself one day outside of music, just find myself. That would be a personal goal. Right now, it’s just about music. Hopefully one day I can change the world, but right now the focus is getting these records heard, making people relate, and inspiring people.
He is also said the artist’s security, on Tory’s command, jumped in and assaulted him, causing him physical, psychological, and mental distress “from blunt force trauma” to his neck, chest, and back.
The VH1 star said another Tory Lanez employee attacked him at the Vendome Nightclub in May of 2021. Prince was hanging out with Malcolm Butler in a VIP area of the club.
When Prince was alone, Tory Lanez allegedly went on the offensive and attacked the reality star. Prince ended up with a headache and a swollen mouth.
Prince is seeking unspecified damages. But Tory’s team says the altercation was an act of self-defense.
According to RadarOnline, Tory has answered the claim by saying, “A person is justified in using or threatening to use force against another when and to the extent that the person reasonable believes that such conduct is necessary to defend himself or another against the other’s imminent use of unlawful force.”
He asked a judge to dismiss the lawsuit because they allegedly agreed to square up.
Mike RMplug has released a new tune called “Drip City.” The song has amassed a considerable internet following since its release. When it was first published, it rapidly went viral. Mike’s excellent music, along with the song’s catchiness, has produced a masterpiece.
Mike RMplug is new to the music industry, but he is not inexperienced. Mike has five singles released this year. You can hear the depth of feeling he has tried to inculcate in them when you listen to them. A notable example of this is the song “Drip City.” It’s catchy music that people of all ages will like.
“Drip City’s” soundtrack gives the appearance of being able to be played continuously without becoming tedious. Whatever it is about the music that makes you want to listen to it again and over again, regardless of how many times you have heard it. This obviously demonstrates Mike’s abilities.
Chika has startled her fans with a post that suggests that she may try taking her own life.
The Grammy-nominated singer/rapper made a lengthy post on Instagram that rang out like a precursor to suicide.
Chika has long wrestled with the rigors of the music industry. Last year, she “retired” from music due to the “mental toll” it took on her. At that time, she also expressed the cruelties of social media. She last released new music in March of 2021.
In the post, she said she is exploring her options.
“i went to the top of the intercontinental, but could not jump. not because i don’t want to, but because the metal stairs were scary,” she said, “it looks like crying wolf, but it’s not. it’s just difficult to find the right way. the quickest way. the painless way. i am tired of myself too.”
Fan and music industry types posted uplifting messages for the 25-year old creative.
Brownstone singer Nicci Gilbert made a touching post.
I don’t know what to say except that I LOVE YOU! I think you’re DOPE AF and you inspire so many artists and creatives. I hope you keep going I hope you know this feeling is temporary. There are people who care and can help you. Please reach out to my friend and advocate @shantidas404@silencetheshame If there is anything I can promise you it’s that one day when you’ve lived long enough, you will see why it’s so important to FIGHT & LIVE through the most painful times of your life and career. I pray GOD covers you sister and I don’t know you… but I feel you.
Below is the whole statement.

Lil Kim said it best … Brooklyn is the home of the greatest rappers.
There is a legacy in the borough that has curated extraordinary emcees, some that you’ve heard of and some that will forever be lore of the streets.
Biggie. Jay-Z. Fab. AZ. Big Daddy Kane. Joey Badazz. Pop Smoke.
While we can go on and on about the dudes out of Kings County, we can’t forget the females’ impact in the space. MC Lyte. Foxy Brown. Again, Lil Kim and now Lola Brooke.
Straight out of Bedford-Stuyvesant, the pint-size emcee brings more to the table than good looks and a rugged flow. Lola is a complete artist — with a pen, versatile style, and desire to be great. No … scratch that. A desire to be extraordinary.
Just ask her, and she will tell that she is the child of DMX and Lil Kim, two of Hip-Hop’s most extraordinary artists.
Kim’s name comes up a lot with Lola because she seems to be carrying the torch in her honor. The only difference is, there is no male crew behind her.
What she does have is a whole hood, rooting for her to win. In an exclusive interview with AllHipHop.com’s Nikki Duncan-Smith, she talks about her journey, her process in the booth, celebrates a few milestones in her career (this year she appeared on four stages at SXSW, one of the most respected music festivals in the world) and talks about scamming to get a little person’s check with Lil Nikki (who is taller than she by ¼ inch).
A grand jury has indicted rapper Ksoo for first-degree murder in two cases.
The artist, whose real name is Hakeem Robinson, is alleged to have killed Adrian Gainer (aka Bibby) in February 2019 and Charles McCormick (aka Lil Buck) in January 2020.
Ksoo has been in on locked in Duval County jail for close to two years ago in September 2020, after being charged with Buck’s death earlier in the year.
They alleged that Ksoo shot Bibby at the Hilltop Village Apartments on West 45th Street.
A week before the indictment for the two murders, Ksoo appeared for a bond hearing in a Duval Court. The question of who was going to cough up a $4 million bond to get him out of jail was raised.
Ksoo’s lawyers wanted the rapper’s bond lowered. Ksoo told the judge that he had no income because he was incarcerated. . The prosecution played his 2021 song and video “Been Dead,” where Ksoo brags about killing people to further justify the high bond.
Cinematic Music Group boss CEO Jonny Shipes was willing to put up some money towards the hefty bond before the indictment came down.
Abdul Robinson Jr, Ksoo’s brother, was also indicted for first-degree murder for one of the men. The two men’s father, Abdul Robinson Sr., is charged with being an accessory to at least one of the crimes.
Megan Thee Stallion will beat the subject of a multi-part documentary series about her life and career. Read more!

The “Hot Girl Summer” star’s management company Roc Nation and Time Studios announced that they have teamed up to produce the multi-part series, which Nneka Onuorah will direct.

Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez added that she hopes the documentary will “inspire viewers to stay the course and pursue their passions through the ups and downs.”
Joyner Lucas apparently regrets his recent rant about Machine Gun Kelly and Lollapalooza.
The East Coast rapper deleted a series of Twitter posts blasting MGK and the music festival. Joyner Lucas blamed hackers for his social media outburst.
“Them Damn Russian hackers dun hacked my phone yesterday smh,” he wrote.
Joyner Lucas aired out Lollapalooza – and music festivals in general – after seeing his name in small font on the event’s flyer.
“These festivals [are] gon stop playing with me like I ain’t that n####,” he wrote. “Putting my name next to the names of a bunch of random n##### that nobody heard of and offering me a weak ass [money]. Then I say no to the offer and these hoe ass n##### put me on the flier anyways. @lollapalooza.”
He continued, “N##### is on gon start putting respek on my name. For years [I’ve] been getting these weak ass offers like I’m some lil n####. Then n##### who ain’t even on my level or doing my numbers is getting put in BIG LETTERS while they write my s### hella small on the flier! How sway?!!”
Joyner Lucas claimed he’s the biggest independent artist not named Tech N9ne. He also slammed Lollapalooza for booking Machine Gun Kelly as a headliner.
“Then you got this goofy ass n#### headlining?” he wrote. “Smh how sway?”
Joyner Lucas then dismissed the notion of facing any blowback from MGK.
“Someone said ‘don’t bring out the rap devil’… maaaaannnn listen,” he wrote. “Lol. What my brother Marshall did to this n#### @machinegunkelly is light compared to what’s waiting if he wanna walk down that street wit me. Ain’t nobody worried bout a n#### who paints his nails. Foh.”
Lollapalooza 2022 is scheduled to take place at Grant Park in Chicago on July 28-31. Tickets are available here.
Behrang Khorsandian, a 36-year-old American rapper, is striving to accomplish what few people have done before him:
Hip-hop music and culture were founded on bringing unvarnished awareness of oppressed groups’ challenges to a wider audience. Still, it has yet to address mental health issues, even though they disproportionately affect low-income communities and people of color. However, that may be about to differ, thanks to Generation Z. Behrang Khorsandian, a 36-year-old American rapper, is striving to accomplish what few people have done before him:
Unashamedly raise the veil on mental health in the Hip Hop culture.
Share his experiences.
Bring hope to others.

Fans want to connect with musicians outside of their music, and Behrang does an excellent job at it. The music industry has reached saturation point. Because many companies promote new musicians weekly, producers must pay special attention to their songs’ construction to stay nuanced and visible in a fast-paced music market.
Even though many performers have had failures in recent years, Behrang Khorsandian has kept an upbeat approach from the start. This season, he honed his skills to add to his ever-growing 2022 collection. Behrang is undeniably a game-changer, a surefire talent who is quickly gaining acclaim, and one thing is certain: his star strength will continue to climb.

Behrang Khorsandian needs to push boundaries and defy the odds as we enter the new year–swiftly, he’s built a reputation for himself through creative works and a well-curated social media and Spotify presence that has attracted thousands. Of followers and fans!
His recent studio endeavors have seen him explore unexplored imaginative possibilities, blending unusual sounds while staying true to his roots. He’s a huge effect on individuals in his orbit because he’s young, enthusiastic, and passionate.

Behrang Khorsandian is getting ready to break some records in 2022. He is committed to giving his readers genuine and unique stuff.
Even though Behrang appears to have appeared out of nowhere, he was not an overnight sensation. “I have worked relentlessly day in and day out to get to the place where I am now,” Behrang says.

Cardi B secured another legal victory, this time with her sister Hennessy Carolina.
According to TMZ, a judge dismissed a defamation lawsuit against the Billboard chart-topper and her sister. Three people sued the diamond-selling rapper and Hennessy Carolina for labeling the trio as racist.
Cardi B put the apparent Trump supporters on blast after they confronted her sister at Smith Point Beach in New York. Hennessy Carolina captured a video of the altercation, which involved one man wearing a MAGA hat.
Although Cardi B wasn’t present during the incident, the MAGA crew sued her for sharing the clip on social media. She said the Trump supporters harassed her sister and model Michelle Diaz since they were an “Afro/Hispanic gay couple.”
A New York judge sided with Cardi B and her sister, noting that general insults don’t constitute defamation. The court also dismissed the trio’s assault and battery claims, which they brought forth over Hennessy Carolina allegedly spitting at them. The judge determined there was no evidence to prove Hennessy Carolina intended to spit at them.
Earlier this year, Cardi B won a separate defamation lawsuit against vlogger Tasha K. A jury awarded her over $4 million in the case. Tasha K, whose real name is Latasha Kebe, filed an appeal in March.

50 Cent revisited an old beef by clowning The Game on Instagram.
The G-Unit leader dissed his former collaborator after Interscope Records co-founder Jimmy Iovine snubbed The Game at a Los Angeles Lakers game. 50 Cent trolled his friend-turned-foe by sharing a clip of Iovine avoiding The Game inside the Crypto.com Arena.
“LOL The Man didn’t even look at him,” he wrote in the caption. “Get this guy out of here 50 wrote the records. LMFAO @bransoncognac @lecheminduroi.”
The post referenced recent claims by Wack 100, who said The Game ghostwrote for 50 Cent. Wack 100, who manages The Game, insinuated the song “What Up Gangsta?” was ghostwritten in a conversation on Clubhouse.
Earlier this month, The Game warned 50 Cent about reigniting their intense feud. The West Coast rapper addressed his longtime rival after the Power executive producer scoffed at the notion of Kanye West doing more for The Game’s career than Dr. Dre.
“Last time you did this with me, G-Unit clothing got put in a casket wit the entire group & you went into television,” The Game wrote via Twitter. “I like Power n s###…. leave it alone. I’m back outside.”
The bad blood between 50 Cent and The Game has calmed down over the years, but it got violent in the past. An infamous shootout occurred outside of the Hot 97 radio station in 2005.
Gunfire erupted after 50 Cent kicked The Game out of G-Unit. Kevin Reed, who’s affiliated with The Game, was injured but survived the shooting.
So it is no surprise that Game wasted no time in clapping back with some insults of his own in 50 Cent’s comment section.
“N####, I ain’t even see Mr. Burns.. & if you wrote my records… write you one today & put it out n#### !!! Your rap career died wit them loli pop strap tank tops 🍭.. you a actor, n that’s why you ran to tv,” Game snarled. “Give us season 2 of that Tommy b####### & leave this rap s### to n##### who can spell correctly & actually got bars goofy n#### !!! #HeGoneDeleteThisCommentInTheCar.”
Freddie Gibbs opened up about his defense of Joe Rogan, who recently faced backlash for using the N-word and making racist comments.
In an interview with Vulture, Freddie Gibbs suggested he deserves more credit for speaking with Joe Rogan about the issue face-to-face. The veteran emcee also claimed their conversation was historic.
“I feel like n##### didn’t give me enough m############ credit for going on there and spanking Joe Rogan and telling him he can’t say n####,” he said. “People take that s### for granted. I stood up on behalf of Black people. They’re going to write that s### in the history books!”
The Grammy-nominated rapper appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast after a montage of the comedian using the N-word resurfaced and spread on social media. Freddie Gibbs defended Joe Rogan but advised the comic to do more than just apologize.
Freddie Gibbs told Vulture the podcaster will follow through by making donations to atone for the offensive remarks.
“Joe is a real dude,” Freddie Gibbs said. “He’s going to do it. I got some projects he’s going to be a part of — a basketball initiative, some art-gallery opportunities. Joe ain’t just doing this because I told him to. He really wants to redeem himself and do some good stuff in the community. And that’s the point because we could cancel Joe Rogan, but then what the f### use would we have for him? We have to have conversations and move forward with s###.”
