Wordspit & Apontay – “Rap N*ggahz”

Two of East New York finest collab on their newest song “Rap N*ggahz”. Produced by celebrity instrumentalist Sanero who is responsible for Fabolous’ hit song “Cuffing Season”. WordSpit and Apontay trade bars about industry and in the street mc’s and the standard that should be set when touching the mic.

RedAir – “Hidden Darkness”

Chicago alt-soul outfit RedAir balances the melodic with the chilling on new single “Hidden Darkness,” the follow-up to this spring’s equally stark “Cha Cha Cha.”

While producer Rediculus builds a haunting atmosphere on “Hidden Darkness,” singer-songwriter Airon Azure delivers hints of light with inspiring lyrics and distinctive sing-along vocals. He asks the listener to ditch the darkness from one’s life to expose the truth, no matter how ugly or terrifying it can be. It’s an uplifting, thoughtful message of positivity that’s shared the right amount of musical eccentricity, making it fresh and never hackneyed. RedAir’s dose of reality may be coming through a crooked lens, but it’s reality nonetheless.

Like “Cha Cha Cha” before it, “Hidden Darkness” serves a loosie release by the duo. That being said, be on the lookout for more information on the proper debut project from these Chitown artists as they continue to hone their craft.

Meek Mill Says “Soon” To Drake Response

I don’t know if Meek is good for this…but he is claiming that he’s going to be hitting the studio soon. Most people feel that after being double-tapped by Drake, and viciously meme’d he would have a response. Nope. Wonder what Nicki thinks of all this?

Do you think Meek is stalling or is there some Tidal-wave on the way? OK, that was corny. DUECES!

Will The Game’s The Documentary 2 album be a classic? We sure hope so since he says that almost every artist and producer that has come by the studio to take a listen has declared it as such. A few fans had different opinions. Some fans called it the most hyped up album ever, and one fan felt the need to tell Game that he doesn’t determine if the album is classic, but instead the people do. Does the fan have a point? Do you think Game’s album will be a classic?

Ultimately, when the concert went up the chain, it was shot down. “Possible Rihanna Concert at Penn & North,” it read. “No time given. Police are claiming they have no permit so it will not be allowed.”

Rihanna Writing Taylor Swift Diss Track?

Taylor Swift put her foot in her mouth after speaking out of turn with Nicki Minaj. SMH.
But, it may be too little, too late.

Rumor has it, Rihanna is working on an actual diss track against the pop star. Sources say the song will be brutal and aggressive. I wonder what she did to RiRi? Weren’t they both in the same Illuminati Gang a few years ago?

What Rihanna hopes to gain from this would be unclear. Hopefully she gets it off her chest and move on with some more naked pictures or something.

Photo via Joe Budden’s Instagram

Joe Budden seems to be having a field day with the Drake & Meek Mill beef …..and well the random Safaree diss tracks as well. Joe Budden didn’t hold back from poking fun at Meek & Safaree as he pointed out that Drake dissed Meek on a track that females could actually enjoy, and he seems to agree that Safaree has some of the worst bars in battle rap. We wouldn’t mind if Joe Budden dropped a diss track just because. LOL.

Gordon is facing this charge because he allegedly arranged for he and Brown to get drugs the January morning she was found face down in her bath tub. Gordon admitted that they both used drugs that morning. Prosecutors are reportedly targeting him because he was fully aware of the 22-year-old’s drug problem and knew that she would use drugs until she lost consciousness but still obtained drugs for her anyway.
