He claimed her allegations amounted to an extortion attempt.
In new court documents Louis has called off the suit.
The Los Angeles County District Attorney investigated the allegations but rejected the case, insisting there was not enough evidence against Too Short to suggest the intercourse was not consensual.
(AllHipHop News) Another woman claims Damon Dash attempted to sexually assault and rape her during an incident that took place almost two decades ago.
A woman only identified as T. Harper, sent a notarized letter to court, claiming she met Damon Dash at a restaurant in New York one night when she was a college student.
T. Harper said she was with a group of friends who ran across Damon and his entourage, and soon they were all hitting off together.
Damon allegedly invited them back to a penthouse in Palisades, New Jersey, and everyone was partying and having a good time.
According to Harper, a friend called her back to the master bedroom of the penthouse, where she claims she encountered Damon wearing nothing but a towel.
“As he got closer, he took his towel off and began to play with his penis. I told him I was not interested in having sex. The friend who called me back, was nowhere to be found,” according to T. Harper.
That’s when Harper claims Damon attacked her, threw her on the bed and aggressively tried to force her pants down.
Harper maintains Damon tried to penetrate her with his penis, but he was unsuccessful because she clenched her v#####, tightened her legs and “continued to fight.”
T. Harper claims Damon did stick his fingers in her v##### during the alleged encounter, which ended when Harper kicked him in his groin and fled the bedroom.

Harper says she regretted never telling the police and press charges.
She also considered retaliating against Damon Dash when she saw him clubbing in Manhattan one evening several months after the alleged attack.
“For a split second, I thought about taking a champagne bottle and cracking him in the head with it. I had the chance, I was standing right there,” T. Harper said. “But then I thought, I would get arrested and no one would believe my story, so I didn’t split his skull, but I wanted to hurt him the way he had hurt me. It took years of therapy for me to accept that I did the right thing…”
T. Harper lumped Damon Dash into the same category is R. Kelly, since they both dated late singer Aaliyah. She also Damon to his former business associate Harvey Weinstein.
“My Harvey Weinstein is Damon Dash. I don’t want money, it’s too late to file criminal charges. I do want the world to know Damon Dash is a rapist,” T. Harper wrote in her letter, which was submitted to the court under the penalty of purgery.
Bunn claims she was hired by Damon to work on a photoshoot for his Poppington brand.
She claims she spent the night at Dash’s house after work when he walked into her room in a bathrobe with no underwear and groped her breasts and buttocks.
In addition to the sex assault claim, Monique Bunn claims Damon hijacked a thumb drive with 20-years worth of work on it.
To add insult to injury, Damon has allegedly been using rare images taken from Bunn’s thumb drive and posting them on Instagram to hype up his own projects.
Damon asserts he is being extorted by Monique Bunn’s lawyer Christopher Brown in a new Instagram post addressing the sexual assault allegations levied at him by Monique Bunn.
“First they come into your house then they try to rob you…when they get caught then they they try to make a good guy look like a bad guy ..then try to extort you..,” Damon snapped.
(AllHipHop Rumors) The internet went crazy the other day, courtesy of Big Gipp. I am not going to offer my opinion on this one. I am only reporting the facts. Big Gipp posted the following message and image.
#MessageofThaDay With The Total Push of Other Ways Of Living…Let’s All Please Remember We All Come From This Right Here…No Disrespect 2 No One But Let’s Push This More N 2020 ..
Gipp just jumped out and did it. You have to tell me what you think in the comments. I said I was not going to post an opinion, but I will say this. I am pretty sure I know what Gipp is trying to say/do here. I believe his intentions are honorable. I also believe he has opened himself up to be 1) misunderstood 2) overstood or….deconstructed! A bunch of people aid this is the same as a white person saying “All Lives Matter,” but I don’t see it that way.
I was in deep in the comments! These comments are off the HOOK…people are going back and forth, arguing, supporting and all sorts of otherness!!!! Shout out to Gipp for stimulating the conversation, which is actually necessary!
(AllHipHop Features) Throughout the history of Hip Hop, there are a handful of album openers that instantly captures the listener’s attention and provides an alluring prologue to the full book yet to come. This century has seen exceptional introductory tracks such as Jay-Z’s “Intro,” Common’s “Be,” Drake’s “Over My Dead Body,” Meek Mill’s “Dreams and Nightmares,” and Kanye West’s “Ultralight Beam” set the tone for those rappers’ respective projects.
Back in 2006, Lupe Fiasco secured his placement in the conversation about impressive rap forewords. The 1st & 15th representative recruited his sister, Ayesha Jaco, to establish the motif of the Midwest musician’s debut studio LP Food & Liquor with a poem about the environment where the man born Wasalu Muhammad Jaco was raised.
“Food and liquor stores rest on every corner, from 45th and State to the last standing Henry Horner. J&J’s, Harold’s Chicken, good finger-licking. While they sin, gin, sin sin at Rothschild’s and Kenwood Liquors,” expressed Ayesha on “Intro” as the sounds of the city played out behind her spoken-word piece.
The Illinois State University graduate is not just a guest feature presented on several of her brother’s releases. Ayesha Jaco is also a well-established choreographer who founded the Move Me Soul Youth Dance Company and scored a year-long residency at Rebuild Foundation in her hometown.
Following Lupe’s phenomenal performance at the Red Bull Music Festival Chicago in November, I had the chance to chat with Ayesha about the M.U.R.A.L. (formerly Lupe Fiasco Foundation) co-founder’s essential contribution to what ultimately turned out to bea Hip Hop masterwork in Food & Liquor.
AllHipHop: Do you remember the initial conversations with Lupe about creating the intro for Food & Liquor?
Ayesha Jaco: He approached me and asked if I could write a poem. I knew what the album was capturing – the duality of what a food and liquor store meant in our community. It’s a place where you go for nourishment on the food side of things, but then there’s unhealthy food there. There’s also the liquor component. So you go for nourishment, but at the same time, there are the realities, and some cases temptations, of things that have to potential to be bad like liquor, cigarettes, etc. Looking at the environment surrounding the food and liquor store where we grew up in East Garfield Park in Chicago, it was a food desert. There was a lot of violence around the food and liquor store. So for me, thinking about what this album was going to do, I wanted to give an accurate depiction to someone that had never been to Chicago, never been to our block or community, what it felt like, what it smelled like, the background vocals of the kids on the block. We went to the food and liquor store once or twice a day. One time Lupe got hit by a car going to one of the neighborhood food and liquor stores. There are a lot of memories from that span of our lives. So him bringing to life a project centered around that, he wanted to tap me to help tell that story so that it’s really drawn from the perspective of our childhood memories.
AllHipHop: At the time when you were making the album, or even when it was done, was there any sense that it was going to have the impact that it did? Did you know it was going to be a classic?
Ayesha Jaco: I think the momentum from his mixtape led to people being curious about what he could do for a feature album. That mixtape was so hot, different, fresh. So I think it was a lot of anticipation from fans wanting to know what a Lupe Fiasco album would be like. For him, it was just having the opportunity to pour his heart and soul on one project that was thematic. As you know, a lot of mixtapes have themes derived from other inspirations or existing movies, in his case, Revenge of the Nerds. But to create something homegrown that was inspirational and paired with him demonstrating his ability to be a lyricist, a thought leader, it was a lot of anticipation from our side. For me, I was like, “Yeah, I’ll do the poem.” It was just bare bones, telling it like it was. I referenced 45th and State. That was an area where housing projects used to be. Henry Horner was the last housing projects to be torn down. If you came west, you ran into our hood. For him, it was like the birth of one of his children.
AllHipHop: Parts of the album leaked before it was released. Was that always the original version of your intro?
Ayesha Jaco: This was always the original version. Yeah, this is what it was when we first put it together.
AllHipHop: There was always a line that stood out to me. You said, “They keep funeral homes in business and gunshot wards of hospitals full. Prisons packed, bubbling over in brown sugar.” So much of what you were saying then is still relevant today.
Ayesha Jaco: Yeah, it’s real. There was always duality in our lives. Where we grew up, outside of our window, there was a prostitute on the corner. Down the street from us was the infamous stadium where the Bulls won their numerous championships. But there was a lot of murder and drugs. Our older brother, over a ten year period, lost twenty-five friends. That’s not normal, but to us, that was the norm. But the duality was the household that my mother kept. There were National Geographic magazines. We watched Carmen Sandiego. Then we had our dad who lived on the Southside who took us beyond the Westside. “Go to the Northside, Southside, and Eastside. Know your city because this is a world-class city, and you belong here.” We had that duality that allowed us to survive, but the death was real. In Lupe’s interview on MTV, he breaks down because he was sad that young people that he saw in his videos were now like ghosts. That’s heavy. Granted we’re all going to make a transition at some point, but not at the rate young, black men in Chicago transition. And if you didn’t die, then there was the cycle of being in prison. So that was just a way of capturing that reality for us.
AllHipHop: I found it interesting that both you and Lupe became so heavily involved in the arts. Was that something that was emphasized by your parents?
Ayesha Jaco: From the time we were born, [Nina Simone’s] “Mississippi G#####” was playing – Nina Simone, John Coltraine, Alice Coltrane. Our father was a musician. He played the bagpipes, xylophone, saxophone, and African drums. So as children, we were oriented to music through their record players. There was a drum circle here in Chicago. 63rd Street Beach. It still happens today. We were there every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday where our dad would play drums. My mom was into literature, so we were reading Paul Laurence Dunbar, Maya Angelou, Toni Morrison. We had all these great books in our house that were there for us to engage in. People would come into our low-income housing and think our house was like a museum. Our dad’s pledge or plea was to make your community better than you found it. Lupe chose music. I chose literature and dance, so a tone was set for us for sure that inspired us. Wasalu would study the dictionary and read the encyclopedia for fun. So when you think about his wordplay and ability to tell stories, it was because of what he had access to inside of the house paired with the ills outside of the house. Because of the duality of what my mom had in the house and the duality of having a father that had a trajectory on what it was to be a man and rise above, that’s ultimately what I think became fuel for him to be so creative and ultimately what saved him and my brother’s life.
AllHipHop: You got the chance to perform with Lupe at the Red Bull Music Festival Chicago. Can you talk about what that experience was like?
Ayesha Jaco: It was amazing. This was the first time Food & Liquor was done in Chicago where it was born, so it was just a powerful moment. But I didn’t even think about it until I got there and saw the theater packed. People were anticipating the album from top to bottom, and me being able to play a role in that was amazing. We’ve performed the poem before from The Cool, but it was just surreal being able to do it in Chicago. Having people say the poem with me was amazing. It was a true homecoming for Food & Liquor. Like you said, with the leaking of the album, with all the heartache, pain, and joy, it was really a nice celebration.
AllHipHop: Going by the reception inside the Riviera Theatre that night, it seems like Lupe’s fans have great respect for you. As soon as you stepped on the stage, everybody kind of went crazy before you even said anything.
Ayesha Jaco: I didn’t expect that. I was like, “Oh, okay. You guys know me too, a little bit.” I didn’t realize the impact. To me, it wasn’t nothing deep. It wasn’t an Ursula Rucker on The Roots or even a Lupe where you got to dig and find the double entendre and think about what this is and what that is. It was just spoken from the heart, raw words. So I didn’t realize the impact that my role on the album doing the intro has had over time. Honestly, if I knew that it was going to play such a heavy role, I probably would’ve went back and wrote a little harder. I would’ve tried to get my Lupe on. Like, “People are going to have to decode this.” But it’s all good.
AllHipHop: I think beyond just the rawness and honesty in the poem that people connect to, it’s also the fact that you’re the first voice that people hear. So there are very distinct memories connected to that for a lot of people.
Ayesha Jaco: For sure. Again, duality. If you think about him, duality – the balance of the male and female, the mother and father, the feminine and the masculine. It’s very interesting. When I go back and look, at least for this album, The Cool, and Food & Liquor 2, I’m like, “Wow. I didn’t even realize I’m part of the formula.”
AllHipHop: At the concert, Lupe was doing a cover of Jay-Z’s verse from “Pressure.” But he made sure to stop on the word “murals.” It made me think about how important that word seems to be for Lupe. He has a song named “Mural.” You guys have an organization called M.U.R.A.L. Is there any backstory to why that word has repeated itself throughout his work?
Ayesha Jaco: I don’t know. We’ve never discussed it. Again, it’s him and double meanings. Like the album cover for Tetsuo & Youth is a painting created by him. When you think about one way to capture the beauty and the pain in a lot of our communities, they’re rich in murals. Murals tell a story. Murals bring a collaborative process in some cases. When we think about graffiti and its place in Hip Hop, it was to beautify things that were ugly, that were disinvested. In that time period, he did a speech about how if everybody did what they’re the best at and came to work together, how powerful and dope this planet would be or the project that you’re working on would be. When I think about mural making, all of his albums have been a mural. For the organization, it was inspired by the song “Mural.” We were rebranding at the time. It’s an acronym for magnifying urban reality and affecting lives. Look at a mural, depending on where it is and the motivation behind it, it captures the community beyond the artist’s intent. It tells a story about where it’s placed. I think that’s true to his music. So if I could guesstimate, that’s what I would say, but you never know with Wasalu.
(AllHipHop News) Drake held off confirming he had fathered a lovechild in 2017, because the initial paternity results were tainted.
Rap rival Pusha T revealed the shocking news in the lyrics of his 2018 song “The Story of Adidon” before the Canadian superstar was able to explain.
Drake confirmed the birth of his son, Adonis, a month later, and now, in a new interview with the Rap Radar podcast, he explained why he waited so long to confirm the baby news.
“To be honest with you, I did a DNA test for my son and it came back to us and it said the DNA test got ruined in transit and they couldn’t be 100 percent sure that that was my son or not,” he said, “so, I was in a really weird pending situation where I didn’t want to go tell the world that that was my son and it wasn’t.”
Drake also revealed he shot down an idea to release the details about his son as part of a collaboration with Adidas bosses, adding, “At the time I was working with Adidas and we were toying with the idea of a name being a play off of my son’s name. I wasn’t revealing my son with Adidas.”
Adonis is the result of Drake’s romance with French artist Sophie Brussaux.
(AllHipHop News) Jailed rapper Kodak Black gave fans a Christmas treat by releasing his new single, Harriet Tubman, from behind bars on Wednesday.
On the track, he suggested his upbringing has links to abolitionist Tubman escape from slavery and her efforts to free others using America’s fabled Underground Railroad.
“Feel like Harriet Tubman/I ain’t stop, I kept runnin’/They was actin’ funny/I said the money train coming, I feel like Harriet Tubman,” Black raps.
The 22-year-old also showed his Christmas spirit in the days leading up to Christmas – donating money and gifts to families in need in his native Florida.
Harriet Tubman is a talking point in America right now, thanks to Cynthia Erivo’s new biopic Harriet, which chronicles her rise from slave to freedom fighter.
(AllHipHop News) Rich The Kid and Tori Brixx have been through a lot since they first started dating in 2018. The couple was injured during a violent home invasion in June of that year. Then Rich was hospitalized after getting into a UTV accident last December, and he was robbed at gunpoint outside an LA studio in February 2019.
The Rich Forever Music rapper and the Instagram model are looking to leave the negativity in the past and moved into 2020 with positive vibes. Rich began their new year journey together by popping the question to Tori during a dinner with loved ones.
“You deserve the world & that’s what I’m going to give you!!! I love you more than life itself!! Who coming to our wedding???” wrote RTK on Instagram. He posted a video of the proposal to the social media platform.
Tori Brixx (born Tori Hughes) and Rich The Kid (born Dimitri Roger)have one child together. Their son was born in April. Roger also has two other children from his previous marriage to Antonette Willis.
(AllHipHop News) Earlier this year, news broke that Jimmy Duval filed a lawsuit against the estate of Jahseh “XXXTentacion” Onfroy. Duval was seeking compensation for his work on XXXTentacion’s breakout hit “Look At Me!”
“It is important to note that as the producer behind ‘Look at Me,’ an inarguable platinum hit, I was removed from all credits, which in turn meant that all rights and royalties owed to me, were immediately averted. It goes without saying that everyone deserves credit for their contributing works,” stated Duval in March.
According to The Blast, XXX’s mother, Cleopatra Bernard, filed her own countersuit against Duval and Stache Records. Bernard is requesting Duval’s case be dismissed. Plus, she is seeking attorney fees from him.
Court documents claim Onfroy agreed to a royalties deal that paid him 50% while Duval and fellow producer Rojas would each receive 25%. However, London dubstep artist Mala claimed “Look at Me!” stole elements of his track “Changes” without permission. As a result, Mala was supposedly awarded Duval’s interest in the record.
“Look at Me!” landed on Soundcloud in December of 2015. It was re-released in 2017 via Empire Distribution and eventually became a Top 40 hit on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart. In 2018, a 20-year-old Onfroy was murdered outside a motorcycle dealership inDeerfield Beach, Florida.
(AllHipHop News) Over the last several months, Lil Uzi Vert has been in a public spat with DJ Drama’s Generation Now imprint. Uzi insisted the record company is blocking him from dropping his Eternal Atake album and working with other acts, but Drama denied those accusations.
Over that same time period, it appears Lil Uzi Vert may have been dealing with some sexual frustration as well. The 25-year-old rap star born Symere Woods shared some private information about his sex life on social media.
“I haven’t had sex in 2 years like [the] end of 2018,” tweeted Uzi to his 5.6 million Twitter followers. The revelation was in response to a user that suggested someone needed to visit a gynecologist to get tested for sexually transmitted diseases.
While his fans still wait for the arrival of Eternal Atake, Lil Uzi was able to break into the Top 5 on the Hot 100 chart this week with the single “Futsal Shuffle 2020.” The record got a boost thanks to the accompanying “Futsal Shuffle” dance. DJ Drama was even seen doing the moves.
(AllHipHop News) Rich Homie Quan recently let loose his 10-track Coma mixtape. The Atlanta rhymer sat down with DJ Smallz to talk about his new body of work.
That conversation included Quan discussing the meaning behind the Coma title. According to RHQ, he is fully aware of the public’s perception of his current status in the rap game.
“When you in a coma, you not coherent. You there but you not there,” explained the 30-year-old independent artist. “It’s basically how I feel people are doing my music. My songs were there but n*ggas weren’t clicking.”
He continued, “I want to let n*ggas know I’m still here, I’m coherent, I see y’all not f*cking with me. It’s like that state of mind. And I wanted to make sure we had a fire tracklist to make sure I could back up the name.”
(AllHipHop News) Vic Mensa has been open about his own personal issues with narcotics in the past and that has given him a certain perspective about how he addresses the topic in his music. Now, the Roc Nation signee is pointing a finger at Hip Hop culture for glorifying drugs such as Codeine, Percocet, and Xanax.
In an interview with TMZ, Mensa claimed that some of his peers are “polluting the minds of the youth.” He also specifically placed some responsibility on rap music for the death of Jarad “Juice WRLD” Higgins.
“You gotta be careful about what you say because kids take what you say for real. They take it as the gospel. So give them something they can use, not sh*t that’s killing them,” offered Vic. “And when we see these things happening to the young brothers – like rest in peace Juice, too early, 21, and rap is much to blame for it.”
Juice WRLD died on December 8 from an apparent drug overdose. Reports suggested the “Lucid Dreams” hitmaker swallowed multiple Percocets in an attempt to hide the pills from law enforcement officers that were searching his private jet at Chicago’s Midway International Airport.
(AllHipHop News) Cactus Jack label head Travis Scott gifted his fans with a special holiday treat today (December 27). The Houston-bred musician dropped the JACKBOYS compilation.
Artists such as Young Thug, Quavo, Offset, Sheck Wes, and Pop Smoke make appearances on the album. There is also a “Highest In The Room” remix featuring Rosalía and Lil Baby.
The original “Highest In The Room” peaked at #1 on the Hot 100 chart in October. JACKBOYS follows Scott’s chart-topping Astroworld from 2018.
(AllHipHop News) Damon Dash’s lawyers are going to be busy in 2020.
The business mogul was just socked with a $50 million sexual assault lawsuit by a photographer who claims the Roc-A-Fella founder molested her in a drunken stupor.
According to documents obtained by The Wrap, a photographer named Monique Bunn claims Dame hired her to do a shoot for his Poppington brand in April.
After work had ended, Bunn was invited to stay the night at Dash’s house with his partner Raquel Horn.
Monique Bunn says she was sound asleep in Damon Dash’s daughter’s room when she was suddenly awakened to the 40 year-old rubbing her breasts and gripping her buttocks without permission.
“Dash was wearing a robe and had no underwear on. Dash had been drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana all day,” according to Bunn’s complaint.
Ironically, Monique Bunn is being represented by attorney Christopher Brown.
(AllHipHop Rumors) Tekashi 69 is always into something, even when he is just in jail. Somehow, these dude is able to gift his current girlfriend Jade an iced out Troll doll. How mature. On top of that, Jade went on to brag about it and thank the jeweler.
“Damn… I wanted Minnie Mouse because your Mickey Mouse but this Troll doll is fine I guess Merry Christmas baby thank you @jimmyxboi,” she said.
What Jade Wattley didn’t know was that she was trolling the mother of Tekkie’s child with the post. The diamond-studded toy merely served to p### off Sara Molina. And you know what? Sara Molina doesn’t grant passes for anything and definitely not Jade Wattley!
Well, let me say…that iced-out troll is in extreme CONTRAST to how 69 is doing his daughter and child’s mom. According to S Dot Molina, Tekashi isn’t doing anything for them.
“Any b#### that stands by a ni99a that don’t take care of his kids is a corny weak b####. B#### you not as important to me as you think my problem isn’t you I always made my issue about him not being a father not what he does for you or your daughter who ain’t even his… KNOW YOUR PLACE.”
And then Jade fired back, when she probably should have kept her beak shut.
“We hate you baby mommas. Miserable b!tches. Happy holidays to all mothers tho.”
Man!
When that man gets out of jail, he is going to have so much drama, his hair is gonna go from rainbow-colored to white! I cannot wait so that the next person can write all about it! I want no parts of this CIRCUS!
I have been writing for this site all these years and nobody has ever offered me a job. I know my writing is kinda trash at times, but isn’t that all you all read? LOL! I gave birth to trashy blogs.
“Me and Drake had this disagreement and he refused to speak to me for six months. That was so painful… You cannot be in service to God and be mad at your brother next door… I go to Drake’s house with no security and just leave my number… Drake lives four blocks down the street from me.”
But in his Christmas Day address with Rap Radar, Drake made it clear he has no wish to be friends with Kanye, insisting he cannot “fix” his old pal.
“I think he kind of recruited a guy with a similar dislike for me, no matter what he says (in) interviews,” Drake said. “He can tell whoever, ‘I got love for him’ or whatever, but it’s not love… There’s something there that bothers him deeply. Yeah, I can’t fix it for him, so, it just is what it is.
“I’m not just some kid that’s not a fan anymore. Now we have personal situations, and like I said, a lot of his issues with me, I can’t fix them for him.”
He also attacked Pusha T, insisting he’ll always bear a grudge for the way the rapper exposed the fact he was a dad on record.
“I have no desire to ever mend anything with that person. I’ll say this, I tip my hat to the chess move. I mean, it was a genius play in the game of chess. And definitely warranted my first quote-unquote ‘loss’ in the competitive sport of rapping. Some people like his music. I personally don’t ’cause I don‘t believe any of it.”
(AllHipHop News) Tekashi 69’s RICO case has cost him more than a few years in Federal prison.
The rap star could have to shell out a few hundred thousand bucks in February of 2020, after losing a default judgment to a Danish rapper.
In April, Tekashi 69 born Daniel Hernandez, was sued by a musician known as Sleiman.
Sleiman said he plunked down almost $100,000 to drop verses on his song “Red Bandnna/Black Hoodie.”
Tekashi 69’s label 10K Projects got wind that Sleiman was preparing to release the single, and threatened him with legal action, should he release the track.
Sleiman marched into court and sued 10K and Tekashi 69 to battle over ownership of the song.
The Danish rapper ultimately dropped 10K from the lawsuit, but Tekashi 69 was not so fortunate.
Judge Pamela K. Chen granted Sleiman a default judgment since Tekashi 69 never answered to the lawsuit – he was busy testifying against members of the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods.
(AllHipHop Rumors) Hip-Hop friends of a certain age remember the song “Mad Izm” – which featured the luminaries Channel Live and KRS-One in the 1990’s. That was the Golden Era of Hip-Hop when it was at the tippy top. Now, it feels like everything is in disorder and disarray! And Kanye West seems to be at the center of it all. Just look at this!
I will tell you! This stuff drives me crazy! But I am not going to say anything for frea of being called “judgemental.” Lets just say I am not a follower of Kanye West. Period. One person I thought was a follower of Kanye West is a man named Malik Yusef. In the past, Malik has defended Kanye as well as been a member of his trusted circle of friends and bosses. So, it piqued my interest when I heard he was going to diss Kanye West on a new song. Now, I did not speak on this rumor when I was first told. Why? I don’t tell everything I know. Also, I wanted to wait and see. There is a lot of Kanye dissing and I didn’t walk to seem like I was just making another clickbait Kanye post. Well, here we are. The rumor comes true.
Hakim of Channel Live has a new song called “Nigganometry” that speaks on a lot of issues like Nipsey Hussle, Megan Thee Stallion, Kaepernick & Jay-Z and a lot of overall issues that are facing the community at large. A reworked version of the song features Malik Yusef. “You say you a man of God, but you ain’t do the math right,” and some other stuff like “Uncle Tom-my gun.” Now, I have to confess….he does not say Kanye West’s name and the references are very general. So, if the dude steps to Malik like “Did you diss me?”, Malik can say “No, I was just rapping on a song for a friend.” LOL! Listen up and you tell me.
I am thinking these are subs, but he ain’t burning no bridges. Kanye needs that street connection that Malik Yusef brings to the table.
(AllHipHop Rumors) Everybody hates Drake, but they love him when he is talking to real street cats like Griselda. In this new epic interview, it looks like Drake seems to work with the crew from Buffalo, New York. Now, I have some “views” on this, but I am also worried about it! Look at what he says:
Now, Benny, Westside and Conway have all worked with big names like Busta, `Black Thought, Eminem and even Pusha-T. Well, Drake would be a good look for the crew and I think it would be a good look for the guys from up top too. I think they stand to get a ton of money too. But, what is the common ground that they will rap about?
Coke?
Hard times?
Betrayal?
Fatherhood?
I really want to know? What’s interesting is that Buffalo and Toronto are like neighbors! They are closer to each other than NYC. So, maybe there is something I don’t know about like extremely cold weather. Either way, I am here for it.
Draya said she’s entering the new year a single woman.
On Christmas Day, Draya took to her Instagram story to let everyone know that her and “the man she was engaged to” aka Orlando Scandrick are no longer together. She also said we can save our comments to ourselves because they don’t care.
But after doing a little social media digging, I found a tweet on December 3rd where Draya mentions “her man.”
No one is safe … the talk about me, my kids, @ my man and my friends. It’s like insane and I just don’t get it.
