Cam’ron is funny. That’s not a fact hidden to Hip-Hop enthusiasts, but the Dipset don is taking it to the next level with “Word Up,” a new talk show. How real the show is…is questionable. Either way, we were entertained by the couple of minutes it takes to watch. Peep.

Well played, Hpnotiq. Well. Played.

He also threw major shade at BET when Omari Hardwick didn’t receive a nomination for Best Actor at the 2015 BET Awards.

Though Power didn’t get any nods for the 67th Annual Emmy’s, their competitor did. Empire, which 50 loathes, scored two nominations for Outstanding Costumes and with Taraji P. Henson up for Outstanding Leading Actress In a Drama Series.

Power is a notable series though despite not getting much recognition from award shows. The season two premiere was the most-watched episode of an original series in the history of the Starz channel.

A Denver mom has written Fetty Wap a touching thank you letter for serving as an inspiration to her son. In case you didn’t know, Wap was diagnosed with congenital glaucoma at birth, resulting in having one of his eyes removed. He rocked a prosthetic eye for most of his life but decided to stop once he launched his rap career so he could maintain a distinct look.

Brenda Vaden’s 10-year-old son, Jayden, had his eye removed after turning one and being diagnosed with Retinoblastoma, a rare tumor in the retina. He also wore a prosthetic eye, until Fetty Wap hit the scene. Vaden says that her son has now been inspired by Wap’s courage and has stopped wearing the prosthetic eye as well. She took to Facebook to express her gratitude to the New Jersey spitter. Take a look at the post below.

Jayden Vaden

(Warning: long sentimental post ahead) Today I am forever thankful to a young man named Willie Maxwell aka Fetty Wap. While his music is catchy (not always agree with his lyrics but hey who am I to judge…), I’m not necessarily his fan (although Trap Queen is my jam), BUT today I’m his biggest fan.
Many close friends, and of course our family know that Jayden was diagnosed with Retinoblastoma at the age of 1. In result of that he had his right eye removed 2 weeks after his 1st bday. He’s worn a prosthetic eye since then. He has always been terrified of taking it out and would not be caught without it…and then comes along Fetty Wap… Similar to Jayden he lost an eye at a young age and along the way he decided that he didn’t want to wear his prosthetic eye anymore, so he stopped. Jayden, let it be known, is a Fetty Wap fan, a real fan, not like me ha! Well, today, after weeks of asking, Jayden is venturing the world without his prosthetic. I of course am a wreck because this world can be cruel, but so proud of our Boogies. This young rapper unknowingly gave Jayden something we weren’t able to give him-the confidence to be different- and I am grateful to him. Thanks to Fetty Wap for saying F the world this is me, and for helping make our baby boy just a little more remarkable than he already is. And we’ll be purchasing his album, a small thank you to him for changing Jayden’s life forever.

To make sure students were prepared for the school year, Wiz Khalifa stopped by his alma mater, Taylor Allerdice High School, to gift students with all the school supplies they needed. Besides encouraging the kids to stay persistent and work hard during their academic career, Wiz also gave out 1,700 backpacks worth $45,000 to the students.

“It feels awesome to be back at Allderdice,” Khalifa told Pittsburgh News 4. “I love my school. I love Pittsburgh. I love being able to spread some positivity and give kids some hope.”

Principal Melissa Freiz told News 4 that the Taylor Gang rep returning to his hometown high was “huge.”

“It means he hasn’t forgotten where he’s come from, and so for us being able to share this moment with our students, it’s a really big deal.”

Take a look at photos from his visit below.

Of course.

Though Fetty Wap’s “Trap Queen” dominated the summer and remained steady on the Billboard charts, it’s far from G-Rated.  Thanks to a Tennessee pre-teen, the song received a kids-friendly remix.

A ten-year-old named George Dalton took it upon himself to take a song about Fetty’s trap house bae and turn it into a banger for the playground. In the accompanying video, Dalton has a live band setup and a few curly-haired teeny boppers in the kitchen cooking pies, apple pies that is.
