On March 6, Logic released a cover of “It Was a Good Day” by Hip Hop legend Ice Cube. The move was used as a promotional tactic for the Maryland-raised rapper’s College Park album.

The original “It Was a Good Day” became one of Ice Cube’s biggest commercial hits, peaking at No. 15 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Many internet users blasted Logic for remaking the classic single from 1993.

For example, emcee-turned-podcaster Joe Budden called out the rhymer born Sir Robert Bryson Hall II on his self-titled show. The former Slaughterhouse member has also been very critical of Logic in the past.

Joe Budden Begs Logic To Retire

“Logic, I beg of you, I’m pleading with you. Please join me in retirement,” said Joe Budden. “Never step near a recording device again. Throw your phone in the ocean. Be allergic to microphones. Promise your fans nothing.”

Budden added, “Don’t go to the studio ever again. You are the worst. You are really, really bad. And then when we think he can’t get any worse, you have the bright idea of doing an Ice Cube flip.”

Logic does not seem to be taking the criticism about his Ice Cube cover too seriously. On Thursday night, the former Def Jam recording artist posted a photo of himself to Twitter with the caption, “Then we played bones, and I’m yellin domino.”

College Park Features Redman, Statik Selektah, Seth MacFarlane & More

That tweet references lyrics from the “It Was a Good Day” song. The picture features Logic wearing a College Park hat as well. His eighth studio album dropped on February 24 via Three Oh One Productions and BMG Rights Management.

Logic recruited some Hip Hop heavy hitters for his College Park studio LP. Guest appearances include Bun B, RZA, Redman, and Statik Selektah. Plus, Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane shows up on the “Self Medication” track.

Listeners should not expect to hear Logic collaborating with Joe Budden any time soon. Despite apologizing to his constant target in 2020, Budden continued to take aim at the DMV representative. Logic even claimed The Joe Budden Podcast host caused part of his depression.

Traumazine album creator Megan Thee Stallion has remained mostly quiet on social media over the last several months. The hiatus has Meg’s Hotties fanbase patiently waiting for her return.

One Twitter user asked other Megan Thee Stallion supporters to comment on how they would like to see the Grammy winner make a comeback. Apparently, some of the rap star’s followers want to hear a new diss track from the rhymer also known as Tina Snow.

Recently, Nicki Minaj released the “Red Ruby Da Sleeze.” The track contained a bar about horses which some pundits took as a subtle shot at Megan Thee Stallion. Reports suggest the two women had a falling out after collaborating for “Hot Girl Summer” in 2019.

Megan also spent years facing public scrutiny for talking about being the victim of a July 2020 shooting. A California jury eventually convicted Hip Hop artist Tory Lanez of assault and other charges in that case.

In the past, Megan Thee Stallion addressed the Tory Lanez shooting incident on the 2020 album Good News. Many listeners believe the Houston-bred Hot Girl Coach also took a subliminal shot at Nicki Minaj on 2021’s “Thot S###” single.

While some of her fans hope to see Megan Thee Stallion provide more disses towards her rivals in the near future, her longtime music producer thinks the Roc Nation-backed emcee wants to move on from any beef. LilJuMadeDaBeat posted his thoughts on the matter on Twitter.

“Y’all saying she should do a diss track but did y’all think for one second? She’s trying to get passed all those things and put it behind. Why would she put it on wax to be reminded of it?” tweeted LilJuMadeDaBeat.

The fellow Texas native has worked extensively with Megan Thee Stallion on records. LilJuMadeDaBeat produced songs such as “Big Ole Freak,” “Cash S###,” “Captain Hook,” “Body,” and “Thot S###.” Additionally, he produced for other acts like 2 Chainz, Key Glock, Lil Baby, and Beyoncé.

P. Diddy, Bad Boy founder and the man that signed The Notorious B.I.G. to Uptown and then Bad Boy Records, took to Twitter to pay tribute to his friend on the day when he was abruptly taken from the world 26 years ago.

Diddy aka Brother Love tweeted a video of Biggie talking. In the caption, he posted, “There will NEVER be another. The GREATEST RAPPER OF ALL TIME. Today we celebrate and honor you, king. Love and miss you!!”

In the video, the Brooklyn native tells fans, “Don’t be the fool to sit back and do it because not else doing it”

Adding, “The only thing you’re gonna do is follow with somebody else’s footsteps. Then you’re just gonna be a shadow. Who wants to be a shadow for the rest of their life? You know what I’m saying?”

“If you got a little something you know how to do, progress at it, keep trying. I mean God knows what could happen. That’s what I did. Just kept on rapping and it happened to get to the right ears.”

Those ears were Sean “Then-Puff Daddy” Combs, the Vice President of A&R at Uptown Records, who dropped Biggie’s first single, “Party and Bulls##t.”

On Mar. 9, 1997, the Notorious B.I.G., whose birth name was Christopher Wallace, was fatally shot after leaving the Vibe party during the Soul Train weekend in Los Angeles.

Hip-Hop has never been the same.

Rapper and Diplomat Capo, Jim Jones has dropped yet another album, the fourth one in a little over a year. His latest work “Back in My Prime,” is a collaborative effort with Hitmaka, the producer behind hit songs for Nicki Minaj, Gucci Mane, Lil Wayne, and more, and who has amassed over his career 75 million records sold.

The two linked up in Times Square to celebrate the release, entertaining celebrity guests like Fabolous, Maino, Neek Bucks, Ray Ray, and others.

Jim Jones said that Hitmaka is one of the “dopest producers” he knows.

“We had a helluva time recording this past year,” the Harlem native said. “From Miami to New York to LA [just] all over the country to record this.”

Hitmaka chimed in, saying, “I  appreciate my Big Brother for allowing me the opportunity,” calling it “a dream come true.”

“To be like a younger guy and a watch the Dipset and the whole Jim Jones movement … just to be a part of the body of work…  That’s going to last forever.”

The producer continued saying, “It is gonna be super monumental with my career, and thank you, guys.”

As Hitmaka, whose former stage name was Yung Berg, started to end his remarks by saying, “Nobody’s hotter than me,” and maintaining he would kill anybody in a Verzuz matchup.

“Let’s just be clear,” he said. “It’s all through hard-working, God, and just having these relationships and being around all these great people.”

“Back in My Prime” has eight bangers and hits the streaming services on Friday, Mar. 10, and is being distributed through EMPIRE records.
