Birdman Compares Who To Prince & Michael Jackson?!

(AllHipHop Rumors) Okay we may have to p### test Birdman this week. He better put some respeck on Michael Jackson and Prince’s name!

Well it looks like the fact that Birdman and Young Thug are back working together has Birdman very excited.

The two are even working on another Rich Gang album after taking a brief hiatus from collaborating.

Birdman has been teasing new music on Instagram, and it was all good until the Cash Money boss gave Thugger some controversial praise.

Baby basically called Thugger Michael Jackson and Prince, as to basically compare him to the late legends. At times, Baby made me think he was a couple sandwiches short of a picnic and that his train was off the track, but he knows good and damn well Young Thug aint no legend and icon like the late Prince and Mike.

If you are wondering why Birdman is bigging Thug up so hard, he and Thug have about 10 songs done on ‘Rich Gang 2’, and the project will just feature them. Dang they left the homie Rich Homie Quan off.

While I do believe it will be another big year for Thugger, you gotta leave the legends out of this fam. LOL.

Drake’s Amsterdam Fling Gets Exposed!

(AllHipHop Rumors) Plot twist!

So a few days ago, rumors hit that Drake may be creeping around on Jennifer Lopez with a p### star out in Amsterdam.

I still maintain that I believe that the 6 God and J-Lo’s relationship is a fake publicity stunt that they are going to be able to milk later, but whatever.

Anyway back to the jump off in Amsterdam. The woman Drake was believed to be dining with was p### star Rosee Divine.

Apparently the woman who was dining with the 6 God at a Japanese restaurant in Amsterdam, @Sophieknowsbetter, has now spoken out.

The woman says she isn’t a p### star, and that it’s unfortunate that she is getting labeled on social media as such. She posted a comment that said,

“I know I mean eventually they’ll see that they can’t find one p#### video of because I am not a pornstar but hey… the internet stays undefeated.”

Another woman replied saying,

“@Sophieknowsbetter Everyong in Paris knows you sell your p#### to rappers and other rich men in w. Europe. And you are basically a madam for high class escorts. Stop denying your life in the industry. We Europeans all know why you’re around Drake and his crew.”

Wow that escalated quickly! The thing with social media is sometimes you don’t know who is lying and who is being hateful. There is a lot of behind the scenes truth usually being exposed though.

Lol @Sophieknowsbetter says she has to get these bills paid. LOL Do you girl. Drake sure has an interesting type!

#NoPoliticalGenius – An Intimate Interview with Chrisette Michele

While everyone has an opinion regarding Donald Trump, it seems that even more people have an opinion about Chrisette Michele. While I’m not going to front as if I’m not a fan, because I am. Chrisette’s music was the soundtrack of my wedding, and “Epiphany” has found itself in heavy rotation on my iPhone. Regardless of all of those facts, I believe in going to the horse’s mouth and not the horse’s ass.

Many people took to Black Twitter and Instagram to roast Chrisette, including Spike Lee, who took to Instagram to Promote his Netflix Show insert himself into a conversation about Chrisette’s decision to perform at the Trump inauguration festivities.

So because Spike was “Thinking”about adding Chrisette’s song “Black Girl Magic” to his show’s soundtrack, he felt that his feelings would be best expressed via social media. Honestly, I’d expect that behavior from my teenage daughter, not from a 59 year old man. I don’t think it’s a good look.

 

On a personal note, I happened to be surfing the internet and I came across this picture from 2013 of Spike Lee and some very interesting people:

https://instagram.com/p/BPnMRi-AKVN

Spike Lee decided that he was going to come after me for pointing out his hypocrisy.

So because he decided to jump in my mentions, I decided to point out a few facts that my brother chose to ignore:

While folks decided to talk about how 2013 was before The Donald decided to run for POTUS, I decided to point out that Trump started the birther movement for attention back in 2011, still making Spike a hypocrite.

There’s a way to disagree without being disagreeable, and Spike decided to do the very thing that Trump does: Get on the internet and complain and drop attacks instead of having adult conversations.

So I reached out to Chrisette Michele for an interview. The interview is not about shock and awe, nor is it a witch hunt. All of the questions that were asked came from my Facebook and Twitter

The interview in its entirety can be heard on the Latest edition of The Business Bully Podcast. Also in this episode, I speak with the owner of one of the largest Black Lingerie Shops in the world, Kelly Thomas, about Black women being bullied by companies like Victoria’s Secret, amassing over 150,000 active users on social media, her expansion into sex toy sales and the challenges that curvy women face when incomes to finding intimate items that fit correctly!

‘Power’ Star Omari Hardwick’s Album To Feature 50 Cent, Rotimi, Method Man & More

(AllHipHop News) Before Omari Hardwick became the lead actor on the popular Starz drama Power, the Georgia native was known for spitting Spoken Word.

Hardwick released the Return of the Poet CD in 2002, and now he is returning to his roots by releasing a new poetry album.

Later Decatur will include guest appearances by fellow Power stars 50 Cent and Rotimi as well as other artists Method Man, Melanie Fiona, Tank, and Goapele.

According to reports, Grammy-winning performer Robert Glasper was tapped to produce the project.

The first single from Later Decatur is a track titled “Bloodshed” featuring Josiah Bell.

“As a poet, I would always hear emcees come up to me and say, ‘Yo, you should rap,’ and I was like, ‘No.’ You know, the label was tough for me,” Hardwick told Vibe. ‘I’m a poet. I was proud of that distinction between the two, not wanting to be the other. So, I think just in terms of what God’s call for me was, I think I was to pop in a world of visibility as an actor prior to audibility as a musician…People were seeing me enough that they might listen to something I had to say even if they didn’t necessarily receive it. They’d at least give it a shot.”

#BloodShed ……No more blood shed @josiahbell @vibemagazine ☝?Link in Bio.

God bless all you musicians, all you beat makers, all you writers, all you producers, all you engineers. You heal people. Don’t ever let anyone tell you differently. @josiahbell #SiHigh #Ishmael #EP #Vekz thank you.

Stitches Illegally Parks In Handicap Spot and Winds Up With Gun and Drug Charges

(AllHipHop News) Miami rapper Stitches has run into some serious legal problems.

Stitches caught the attention of local police at a Whole Foods parking lot, who recognized him from his previous arrests.

They rolled up on the rapper, after witnessing him backing out of a handicapped spot without the proper permit.

Police asked the rapper if he had any marijuana, and he handed over a burnt joint, denying he had any other drugs or weapons in the car.

However, when police searched his Porsche they found a Glock under the seat along with two magazines, in addition to 39 grams of weed and one Oxy pill, according to TMZ.

Stitches was arrested and charged with felony gun and drug possession.

The rapper didn’t seem too concerned judging by the lyrics in the song he posted in his most recent Instagram post.

SMH! Check Out Why Kodak Black Thought He Contracted An STD

(AllHipHop Rumors) I believe the children are our future…. 🙁

We already know that Kodak Black isn’t the brightest crayon in the box, but his ignorance is the gift that keeps on giving.

Apparently Kodak just had his first brush with acne, and mistakenly thought a girl gave him an STD.

Kodak said he was smashing a girl raw, and later he noticed that a bump popped up on his face.

Kodak panicked and told the girl to send her negative STD tests to prove that she was “clean”. The gotcha gotcha is, Kodak thought it would be a good and safe idea to “hit the girl bare,” as he says, instead of getting her “health papers” ahead of time.

Then the fact that he is willing to just walk around and have unprotected sex with random girls is just. 🙁

“I thought the hoe burnt me dawg but thank you Jesus,” said Black.

Luckily for Kodak the young lady’s results came back all negative. Ehhh but the real question is what will his own test results come back as?

The level of ignorance in this clip is just…..These rappers aren’t going to learn until they catch something they can’t shake off. Side note, the fact that Kodak Black doesn’t know what acne is is hilarious. Carry on man.

J. Cole’s “High For Hours” Hits #1 On Billboard + Twitter Top Tracks Chart

(AllHipHop News) J. Cole has mostly laid low since dropping his fourth studio album 4 Your Eyez Only in December.

The Dreamville leader did return with a loose track on Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Cole’s “High for Hours” became the most shared and/or mentioned song on Twitter the week of its release.

The politically charged record was such a hit on the social media site that it debuted at #1 on the Billboard + Twitter Top Tracks chart.

This was the second major singles chart accomplishment for the North Carolinian since December.

“Deja Vu” off 4 Your Eyez Only debuted at #7 on the Hot 100 chart, giving Cole the first Top 10 record of his career.

In addition, Eyez opened at #1 on the Billboard 200 album chart.

Common Responds To Donald Trump’s Threat To Send “The Feds” Into Chicago (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) Chicago has been dealing with extreme violence for several years.

The city has become a symbol of urban “carnage” for some Republican politicians like Donald Trump.

Trump addressed the situation in Chicago in a recent tweet.

“If Chicago doesn’t fix the horrible ‘carnage’ going on, 228 shootings in 2017 with 42 killings (up 24% from 2016), I will send in the Feds!”posted the President.

TMZ asked Hip Hop star and Chicago representative Common about Trump’s message for his hometown.

“I feel like to help Chicago, we got to take care of our own. Within the community, we got to do things,” said the Oscar and Grammy winner. “It’s a lot of people out there already organizing and doing things. We need our state and local people to do things. We don’t need that type of mentality.”

Common continued, “I’m not focused on the President right now. I’m focused on helping the people in the city and how we can do it.”

Chicago’s mayor Rahm Emanuel stated he is open to federal assistance in combating the violence, but he is not accepting of the National Guard patrolling the city.

“The place you want — if it comes to safety and security when dealing with gangs and guns — you want the federal resources that are set up to deal with that,” said Emanuel. “That is the ATF, Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. That is DEA, Drug Enforcement Agency. That is FBI, the Federal Bureau of Investigations.”

Jay Z Refuses To Answer Question About Donald Trump While Promoting ‘The Kalief Browder Story’ (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) Jay Z was in Utah to promote the TIME: The Kalief Browder Story at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival.

At one point, Jay was speaking to reporters about the film, but the Brooklyn rap legend was not willing to talk about President Donald Trump during that setting.

“Not going to answer that,” responded Jay when questioned about Trump.

The Kalief Browder Story co-producer Harvey Weinstein then stepped in to shut down the press conference.

Jay Z was a backer of Trump’s 2016 election opponent Hillary Clinton, and the Roc Nation founder was also a very visible supporter of former President Barack Obama.

While Hov avoided speaking on Trump, he did address the importance of political action during a post-screening Q&A at Sundance.

“We have to organize,” said Jay. “I’ve been in these meetings, I’ve spoken with people, I’ve done many things behind the scenes, but most important: We are the power. I’m sure a lot of you guys participated in it, but that display of woman power the other day was so amazing and we saw the effect: That no matter what, no matter who’s in office, we are the people that’s in power.”

His role as executive producer for TIME: The Kalief Browder Story is another example of Jay Z highlighting the need for social change.

The six-part documentary brings attention to the story of the late Kalief Browder.

Browder was wrongfully arrested at 16 for allegedly stealing a backpack.

The Bronx, New York native was held at Rikers Island without a conviction for three years, two of those years were spent in solitary confinement.

Browder eventually committed suicide in 2015.

TIME: The Kalief Browder Story is scheduled to air on Spike in 2017.

Drake Delays Tour Dates In Amsterdam Again Due To “Production Setbacks”

(AllHipHop News) After announcing pushbacks to the European leg of his “Boy Meets World Tour” earlier this month, Drake is now delaying shows in Amsterdam, The Netherlands again.

MOJO, the concert’s organizer, revealed the update to fans via Facebook:

Earlier we informed Drake fans on the rescheduling of his Ziggo Dome concerts. We are very sorry to inform you again that the Drake concerts on January 26 (original date January 20) and January 27 (original date January 21) in the Ziggo Dome have been moved to new dates. Drake wants to bring a complete new show to Europe and not a copy of the shows in the US. Unfortunately due to unforeseen production setbacks it will need a little bit more time to be ready. The international and local crew have been working on this production since January 17 in the Ziggo Dome and Drake was all set and has started his rehearsals this week. He can’t wait to start this new tour and show his fans this amazing concert.

The concerts on January 28 (original date January 22) and February 26 (original date January 18) will happen as scheduled.

Previously, Drake was forced to move the “Boy Meets World Tour” dates in England from January to March.

Four Classic Hip-Hop Albums Going Into Harvard’s Archives Thanks To Producer 9th Wonder

(AllHipHop News) Four classic hip hop albums are going into the revered hip-hop producer 9th Wonder.

9th was named a Harvard fellow in 2012, shortly after he screened his film “The Wonder Years” at the institution of higher learning.

Part of his duty as a fellow is to research influential hip hop albums for a archival project titled “These are the Breaks” in honor of Kurtis Blow’s classic 1980 song, which is the first Hip-Hop single to go Gold.

9th also tracks down each original sample that was used on every song for the albums, which are also being cataloged and permanently archived in Harvard’s collection.

“These are the first four we chose to start with to live for forever in the Harvard Library…and to be forever placed in the canon…complete with liner notes and the vinyl that was used in the production of the album,” 9th said.

The first four albums 9th Wonder has selected to go in are: Nas’ classic album “Illmatic,” Lauryn Hill’s “The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill,” A Tribe Called Quest’s “Low End Theory” and Kendrick Lamar’s “To Pimp a Butterfly.”

There are still 196 albums left to be finished according to 9th Wonder.
