Master P Warns All New Era Rappers: “Social Media Gimmicks And Stunts Will Not Help Your Career..”

By: Jake CratesCategory: Videos

Master P States in a recent interview:

“The music industry record sales are at an all time low. Many new wave Hip-Hop artists use controversy to gain spotlight attention but it may only hinder their careers. The chance of landing a record deal opportunity is little to none when there is little profit in the music business due to the internet piracy of music. Fake beefs and social media stunts are irrelevant to building music careers,” Master P says.

“It seems like that in this generation, there’s a great lack of hard work. A lot of artists look for handouts from successful moguls and companies. By me being a CEO from the projects, I will not hand out cash or checks for mixtapes, they are free. It’s called paying dues, we sold records out the trunks of our cars back in the day. Nobody gave us anything. We’re bringing back the boxing gloves at No Limit, if somebody got a problem we’ll settle it old school style. We are publicity-stunt free over here.”

When an OG speaks, you listen, so when Master P recently took the time to address the “new era” rappers and rappers use of social media, the façades and all that comes with a fake profile in the game, it was time to pay attention.

By: Jake CratesCategory: Videos

As discussed in this interview with HOT 97’s E-Bro and the crew, a lot of times when people talk about modern day New York Hip-Hop scene, the A$AP Mob as a whole is overlooked. Why? Its debatable and Ferg has his ideas, which you will hear about below, but more importantly in this interview we learn about the real trials and tribs of A$AP Ferg and his ascension to his current state in the rap game. Ferg is a mentally tough individual and because of that he is a regular at Summer festivals and has recorded with the likes Madonna for example.  Check it below as Ferg talks about persevering despite limited support early on from his label and despite losing A$AP Yams. Looks like Ferg is going to be around for a while, he is just that resilient.

Mac Miller Calls Out White Rap Listeners For Not Being Involved In Black Lives Matter Movement

By: ClassicOneCategory: Rumors

Mac Miller may have been annoyed by the Republican debates based on some of his recent tweets. He brought up the fact that racism is still a major problem in our society. With his remarks he seemed to address what some of his peers aren’t interested in addressing. He explained that although music brings people together, it doesn’t mean people completely get some of the messages. One tweet that stood out in particular by Mac said,

“Dear White People who listen to rap music…..What have you done for the #BlackLivesMatter movement.”

Many were divided. Some feel that white people love black culture but not black people. Some felt that nowadays music cannot be assigned to a race. Should being apart of black issues be a prerequisite to listening to rap music? What are your thoughts?

According to Kat Stacks two very popular things are fake! Kat says both her WorldStarHipHop videos and the Love & Hip Hop franchise are fake. She claims Love & Hip Hop wasn’t going to pay her, and they were just going to guarantee her publicity. Kat also claims she was cast for LHHATL but she had to move, get back with her ex, and cheat on them with a baller. She went on to say LHH Hollywood wanted her to fake a relationship with Young Scrap and have Rich Dollaz discover him as a new artist. She also claims Cardi B & DJ Self faked their relationship to get on LHHNY. She closed saying the show is completely fake. Kat also revealed that all of her WorldStar videos were fake, and that she did them only for money. She also claims the rappers she was exposing were in on the videos for publicity. We wonder what else Kat will be “exposing.” She has a new book out. Will you be picking it up?

Chris Brown Criticizes American Justice System In Defense Of Meek Mill; HotBoy Turk Responds

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) News broke this week Meek Mill could be facing more jail time after a judge ruled the Philadelphia rapper violated his probation. Several people testified on behalf of the Maybach Music Group artist, including his current girlfriend Nicki Minaj. Another music star that has faced criminal charges chose to defend Meek on social media.

Chris Brown sent out a series of tweets yesterday (December 17) where he stated the American justice system is “set on bullsh*t.” During his tweet spree, Brown claimed the United States is run by corrupt politicians and illegal narcotics. At one point CB asks, “Y’all wanna lock [Meek] up but what about Freddie Gray?”

The R&B singer was sentenced to probation and community service following the 2009 assault of his then-girlfriend Rihanna. His probation ended earlier this year.

Another entertainer that has faced the U.S. criminal courts first hand shared his thoughts about the situation as well. Turk, the New Orleans rapper who spent 8 years, 8 months and 16 days incarcerated on second-degree attempted murder charges, replied to Brown on his own Twitter timeline.

“We gotta be more accountable for our own actions. We know about the system,” wrote the former Hot Boys member. He later added, “The system is corrupt, but we can’t keep falling in the traps.”

Funny man Plies took to his Instagram to do an Insta press conference about him retiring in 2016. The rapper isn’t retiring from making music, but instead from giving oral sex in the new year. He says he looks at it like Kobe did.

Plies is a fool! He also had a few words for people who aren’t comfortable with their sexuality as he said,

“If you m*therf*ckin’ gay own that sh*t. I don’t care nothing bout it. I’m not homophobic.”

Plies says be yourself man!

Puff Daddy Talks Kendrick Lamar Inspiring Re-Release Of ‘MMM’

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) Sean “Puff Daddy” Combs returned as a recording artist with the release of his MMM mixtape in November. Puffy re-released the project on iTunes with two new songs. The head of Bad Boy Records spoke about the decision to offer the collection for sale.

[ALSO READ: Puff Daddy Talks Wanting To Go Into Business With Jay Z & Hip Hop Creating Economic Power (VIDEO)]

“I was surprised that after people had a chance to have it for free, they still want to buy it,” said Puff. “I heard about the effect that Kendrick [Lamar] had when he let everybody hear his album for a week for free before they could buy it. It just shows that if it’s quality, people have a demand for it.”

According to his TDE label boss Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith, Kendrick’s To Pimp a Butterfly was unintentionally leaked early to iTunes. The album was supposed to be released on March 23, but it hit the digital store on March 15.

The following day TPAB was pulled from iTunes. However, the project was still made available for streaming on Spotify. The album went on to set a new single day streaming record on the service.

Puff Daddy is next set to drop what he is calling his final album. No Way Out 2 will be the sequel to the Harlem native’s 1997 debut LP. Listeners can look for NWO2 to arrive in 2016. Puffy is expected to reunite with his Bad Boy Family for a new tour as well.

Ginuwine Blasts Tyrese After The Singer Says R&B Supergroup TGT Is Done

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) Two years ago Tyrese, Tank, and Ginuwine joined forces to create the R&B supergroup TGT. The singers released one album under the name. It appears Three Kings will be the only project from the trio at least for some time.

[ALSO READ: NEW MUSIC VIDEO: TGT “I Need”]

Tyrese took to Instagram to announce the group was officially over. He wrote:

I’m sorry to break the news………….. TGT is done………. It’s not about fault….. Business is business….. Me and Tank are still movin….. We will forever love our brother G as brothers…. We’ve got TOO much history to turn this into anything negative…. Even 112 are still together, NEXT, DRU HILL is still together and TROOP and New Edition….. It’s only 3 of us we did one album it was epic……. And now it’s over……. We have been forced to start looking into someone else…… Or me and T just might do it solo…. The reason it worked is because of our history and mutual respect……. I don’t know I’m just shocked and disappointed that I’m even putting up this post……. #ThreeKingsNoMore but I guess…. #LSG only made one album….. Damn..

Apparently this was news to Ginuwine, because the “Pony” performer left a comment on Tyrese’s post which referred to the Fast & Furious star as a diva making a “p*ssy move.” Ginuwine wrote:

wow really to post personal Bizns sh*t is a p*ssy move n*gga why would you do that and since you wanna do that keep it going and we will expose it all DIVA lets get it!!!!!!be a f*cking man not a lil boy talk to me call don’t try and manipulate the situation publicly wack wack wack of you. Exactly why it is the way it is.

The post has since been deleted from Tyrese’s IG page. But the creator of the #1 2015 album Black Rose did leave up another message on the social media platform:

You reach out your hand……. Build people UP…. Put people ON…. Expose them to your blessed life and lifestyle….. They talk sh*t, year you down and spread your business to make themselves look BIGGER and more important that what they really are…… They get so consumed in YOUR life they start thinking they are YOU….. Ahahahahahaaaaa…. You cut them off and they fizzle away….. It’s happened too many times for me NOT to speak on it… This is NOT just a celebrity thing… It’s called LIFE…… I hate to break the news to you..:. But there’s only one man named TYRESE GIBSON……. A real child of God who refuse to put up with anybody’s BS!!!

Previously, TGT members Tyrese and Tank got into an exchange via social media. Tank took issue with Tyrese challenging artists to make pure R&B albums. The “You Don’t Know” vocalist eventually apologized to Tyrese and the fans for expressing his comments on a public platform.

FBI Did Not Seize Secret Wu-Tang Clan Album During Martin Shkreli Arrest

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) A lot of people felt karma played its part this week when pharmaceutical CEO Martin Shkreli was arrested by the FBI on charges of securities fraud, securities fraud conspiracy, and wire fraud conspiracy. He became a public villain earlier this year when his company raised the cost of a life saving HIV drug from $13.50 to $750 per pill.

[ALSO READ: Wu Album Owner Martin Shkreli Arrested On Fraud]

Shkreli was also hated by many Wu-Tang Clan fans after it was reported the 32-year-old purchased the only copy of the group’s Once Upon A Time In Shaolin album. The Wu faithful hoped the FBI would be able to now release the unheard music, but the Bureau’s New York field office posted a tweet saying they did not seize the secret LP during the Shkreli raid.

The world will have to wait and see what becomes of Once Upon A Time In Shaolin. The alleged $2 million album was contractually prevented from being publicly released until the year 2103.
