Dr. Dre Blasts Off “Beats” Radio Show

Dr. Dre may be approaching billionaire status, but that has not stopped him from launching his Beats 1 Radio show called “The Pharmacy” over the July 4th Weekend. The show lives within the Apple Music ecosystem.

Dre explained to NME how he was wooed into it.

Explaining his decision to host the show, Dre said on air: “Jimmy Iovine [Beats co-founder] approached me with this idea about doing a radio station and broadcasting around the entire globe, man. And I was like, ‘What?’ Then I started thinking. I’ve made music. I’m making movies now. So a radio station? Why not.”
Apple Music was recently launched and also added to Apple iPhones’ operating systems.

Will Smith Might Work With Drake

Will Smith might be well known in the acting world, but he is definitely thinking about getting back in the studio to make some music. Smith’s son, Jaden has been blowing in over the past year, and he’s been watching the young rapper aspire in surprising ways. Jaden Smith premiered his radio show on Beats 1 radio titled MSFTS, and Will guest called on the show to talk with him about many things, including getting back to making music. The interviewed had also lead to new that the actor might work with Drake in the near future. Hypetrak pulled a quote from the interview, explaining Will Smith’s indirect concentration on making music:

“I’m not sure what I’m going to do yet but I’m exploring. I’m in a creative ceiling. [Jaden] tells me I have to write out the things I don’t like. I can’t write and stop, I have to keep going and going and write them out.”

No word on any music coming any time soon, but we’ll be waiting on our Soundcloud for that new Will Smith cut.

Rappers like 2Chainz, Sa-Roc and others have opted to join Minister Louis Farrakhan’s massive rally in Washington D.C. to mark the 20th Anniversary of the Million Man March. This is not a celebration though, as the theme of the movement is deemed “Justice Or Else.”

The march is slated for October 10, 2015.

Farrakhan has met with a number of notables over the last year as instances of injustice and police brutality have increased. There have been images with Dame Dash, Ice Cube, Young Thug, Sway, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian on social media and traditional media.

In this promotional video, #JusticeOrElse gets shout outs from 2 Chainz, Ezzy, Lil Bibby, Palo Mula, Bone Crusher, Kaleena Harper, and Sa-Roc.

The original Million Man March convened over a million men (and others) that gathered peacefully on the National Mall in D.C. The march focused on personal atonement, social and societal ills, economic empowerment and the negative portrayal of African American men in media outlets.

Many Black women were upset that they were not included in the plans. The Justice Of Else rally includes all races, genders and others who opposes injustice and systemic wrongdoing .

Nicki Minaj Responds To Joe Budden’s Comments About Her Relationship With Meek Mill

(AllHipHop News) When Joe Budden decided to comment on Meek Mill and Nicki Minaj’s relationship during the latest episode of his podcast, he probably did not expect it would become the number one trending topic on Twitter. That happened, thanks in part to Meek and Joe exchanging words on the social media site.

Meek went back at Joe in a series of tweets which included him saying, “Y’all n*ggas too old for this,” “Stop it old hating noodle,” “It ain’t that boy’s level to be commenting on the way I handle my lady,” and “Ya name ‘Ramen’ put him in the bathroom.” He also retweeted some memes making fun of Budden.

Now Nicki has responded to Joe’s podcast too. The leader of the Barbz sent out her own tweet directed at the Slaughterhouse member.

Nicki Minaj Tweet

The entire situation started after Budden said, “Meek’s music is too hard for me to look at him with this f*cking sappy f*ck sh*t. Be the hardcore guy that I’m sure she was attracted to at some point. It’s nasty. I hate everything about it.”

In fairness, the former star of Love & Hip Hop did do exactly what Nicki suggested. Budden also added, “I do appreciate them both keeping the hope of love alive.”

Something That Looks Like Beef Breaks Out Between Budden And Meek

Joe Budden’s comments on his podcast about Meek Mill may have been misconstrued by the Philly rapper. That didn’t stop the pair from having words for each other on Twitter. Click here for the previous report on this matter.

It all started when Joe Budden made a commentary about Meek and Nicki’s relationship as it corresponded with his public persona. Check out the previous comments.

Part of my problem with that is that Meek’s music is too hard. Meek’s music is too hard for me to look at him with this f*cking sappy f*ck sh*t. Be the hardcore guy that I’m sure she was attracted to at some point. It’s nasty. I hate everything about it. I’m glad a dark-skinned guy is behaving this way. Light-skinned n*ggas, we’re not moving like that…

Light-skinned guys, we’re used to getting the bad b*tch. He’s like this b*tch just stepped off a f*cking Mars and is the only girl. Oh my God, I just hate it all. But I do appreciate them both keeping the hope of love alive.

Ava Duvernay Turns Down Marvel’s “Black Panther”

The internet was all a-buzz when it was announced that Ava Duvernay, most notably known for directing “Selma,” would leap into the Marvel Universe with “Black Panther.”

The film maker said that the deal is dead. She and Marvel were unable to reach an agreement creatively.

“I guess I’ll declare my independence from this rumor on 4th of July [and] Essence weekend!” said DuVernay, today from the well attended festival in New Orleans. “I’m not signing on to direct Black Panther. I think I’ll just say we had different ideas about what the story would be. Marvel has a certain way of doing things and I think they’re fantastic and a lot of people love what they do. I loved that they reached out to me.”

The Black Panther, an African super hero, will make his cinematic debut in next year’s guaranteed blockbuster “Captain America: Civil War.” It simply wasn’t meant to be, even though

“I loved meeting Chadwick and writers and all the Marvel execs. In the end, it comes down to story and perspective. And we just didn’t see eye to eye. Better for me to realize that now than cite creative differences later. I love the character of Black Panther, the nation of Wakanda and all that that could be visually. I wish them well and will be first in line to see it,” she said.

A replacement director has not been announced, but Duvernay said she would know before the end of the summer.
