In an interview with The Source producer/artist, Chase N. Cashe, spoke on his long-standing relationship with Drake, as well as the track he produced for Take Care.

On his relationship with Drake and joining him on the Club Paradise tour:

Chase told The Source of the “brotherly bond” he shares with Drake and how each wants to see the other succeed. He stated that Drake is “the G.O.A.T. right now” in breaking new ground for young artists, also calling him the “forefront leader of our generation.” In regards to the “Club Paradise” tour, Chase said it will hit 50 cities nationwide and that he’s appreciative that Drake is giving him the opportunity to help build his name as an artist, as he is currently independent.

On his production for Take Care:

Chase felt that the song he produced was the “most touching record” and “most heart-felt record” on Take Care. He also said that on the track, Drake talks about his family, “his journey since he’s gained all this superstardom that he sought out to get,” and how his fame has affected his family. Chase is looking forward to seeing how people react to the song, saying that it isn’t a record that will get you down, but that it has “a bounce to it, it’s something people can still dance to, it’s something that you can still ride to in a car.” He called the track a “self-reflection,” as it looks back on the things Drake has done as an artist and it inspires the listener to reflect on their own life.

Epic Fail of the Day: Lil Kids Go Trick-or-Treating As Lil Wayne & Nicki Minaj

LIL WAYNE AND LIL NICKI MINAJ!
There’s not a lot cute about this! I wonder if the Lil’ Wayne sang to the Nicki “She Will” or “How To Love?” You just never know these days! I believe this started in the Young Money Camp so, in that instance, its not so bad.

I guess its not so bad. Back in the day they had Lil Lil Kim and Lil Biggie Smalls. :/

And Holly Robinson Peete something similar, ‘cept a bit weirder!

 

Paul Wall Featured in Mobile Battle Rap Game

(AllHipHop News) Houston rapper Paul Wall has a new rap inspired mobile game called “Battle Rap Stars,”, which is available on iPhones for fans across the world.

By partnering with Jump Shot Media, “Battle Rap Stars” scores and evaluates original rap performances based on a patent-pending voice analysis system.

“I am incredibly excited to be part of this game,” Paul Wall told the Sacramento Bee. “The technology is amazing and the game is just plain fun. Whether you are trying to perfect your skills on the mic or just want to have fun, this game really delivers.”

In the game, Paul Wall is the rapper to beat, as the vocals received are assigned a score based on a user’s rhythm, rhyme and vocal presence.

“Battle Rap Star” puts the gamer against five real rappers and eventually, after winning the initial 5 battles, the gamer gets to face Paul Wall in the final round.

In addition to battle mode there is a karaoke mode of the game that helps those rap who might not be skilled enough to battle.

“We designed this game so that both rappers and non-rappers will have a lot of fun,” said Keith Andrews, co-founder and CEO of Jump Shot Media. “This is truly a unique game that will keep users entertained for hours on end.”

Battle Rap Stars is now available at the iTunes App Store http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/battle-rap-stars/id469872992.
