Nicki Minaj’s Husband arrested for Failing to register as sex offender.
Nicki Minaj is once again standing by her man as he prepares to explain why he hasn’t registered as a sex offender.

It Seems now that her husband Kenneth Petty is back in the can after being arrested by the feds for allegedly failing to register as a sex offender.

Nicki minaj has stood by her husband claiming that at the time of the incident, Petty and the victim were in a teenage relationship. Petty was arrested e...
Kobe:A fan tribute.
There are a few poignant moments that resonate with my soul in this lifetime. The first would be watching the space shuttle challenger explode in the school auditorium in 1986 . The second would be the death of my grandmother later that year in Dec. Following on there would be the birth of my son in 1992 and the subsequent birth of my daughter in 1995. These are all personal moments. Moments that involved family, moments that made me take a step back to reevaluate my life. There have been two incidents in the last ten months that have also touched my soul. Moments that have made me feel like members of my family were detached from my energy source. Moments that feel like “a glitch in the matrix”. those moments include the death of the late great Nipsey Hussle and now the death of Kobe Brya...
I Love you so much right now: Neptunes
The early 2000’s is Synonomous with Virginia Beach. Viginia beach is mostly kown for 4 things. Black post teens partying for spring break, Missy Elliot and Timbaland, The Clipse, and The Neptunes. Pharrell Williams by now is a household name. His 2013 single HAPPY was a breakout hit that accompanied the animated film Despicable me. Being the face of The Neptunes has created an image that Pharell himself was the brains behind some of the greatest “Pharrell” hits. These accomplishments however have actually been the work of two of the most dynamic co producers in the industry, THE NEPTUNES. The duo consists of Parrell Williams and the musical genius of Chad Hugo. Their early work introduced Kelis. Her smash hit CAUGHT OUT THERE (I HATE YOU SO MUCH RIGHT NOW) was released in...
Iron Man turns 23 and get’s kicked out of the house: Ghost face
Ghost Face Killa is arguably the best storyteller in the entire Wu tang Clan. Today in 1996 The W released Iron man a highly anticipated album. It is a Gold certified album. The album featured the other half of the Wu’s dynamic duo, Raekwon the Chef. Iron Man is a classic amongst true hip hop heads until this day. This album, laced with the production of the shoaling Island’s very own abbot, The Rza stinks of classic Wu-Tang. The 90s are not the 90’s without the muthafuckin ruckus that the Wu tang clan brought. Ghost Face, aka Tony Starks, aka Iron man let that be known throughout the album. The album is peppered with Ghost self certifying the group as the greatest hip hop conglomerate ever. History may actually prove his bolstering correct. The recent release of the Wu t...
A voice From the grave. Mac Miller
As the sun set on September 7th 2018 so dimmed the light of one of the decades most talented and passionate artists. Mac miller was highly underrated for his songwriting and his soulfulness. I personally didn’t quite get the whole sensation of the Mac until I watched his NPR tiny desk performance. I was sold hook line and sinker after seeing the performance. I had no idea he was such a talented musician. Mac miller’s talent was also evident when he teamed with another multi instrumentalist and drummer Anderson Paak. DANG!, immediately hit like a soulful and retrofitted banger that put the FU back in funky. Mac Miller’s untimely death forced me to take notice again so I tuned into his music after his death. His love for music has ultimately shone its glaring light far afte...

Welcome to Beat Battle Royale
It’s Finally here! Welcome to the first online Premier beat battle league. Beat Battle Royale was birthed from an online encounter between two friends. DJ. Midas a Dj and producer who was Born in Nigeria and Raised in the UK and Long time friend Ramone Lambert an emcee and producer from the US (AKA Nobody/2415) engaged in a one off friendly competition. After hearing a remix of Dj Midas’ “Shook Ones”, a Classic and almost tabu to touch hit record from the golden age of hip-hop, Ramone Lambert challenged him. The Battle began with humorous trash talking banter and a promise of a remix within 48 hours. The returning trash talk was epic and it turned a simple encounter into a vision. As an up and coming producer there has never been a time where the world is at your fe...

@Iamgoodtone #HomagebarstotheR challenge
Even in the darkest times hip hop has a way of shining through and keeping people connected. This sentiment is evident in the latest corona virus challenge. The #HomagebarstotheR challenge is set to sweep the internet. The challenge, created by Chicago artist Antonio Jones aka Good Tone pays homage to Eric B and Rakim’s Paid in Full. The homage is intended to show respect and give respect to the God Emcee. It is evident to most hip hop heads of all generations that Rakim is a most revered hip hop legend.

Check Tones bars on @iamgoodtone Also check out Good Tone’s smoking video WELCOME TO BABYLON Good Tone atta...
Jay Electronica: 40 days and 40 nights. A written testimony
Hip hop fans (from the early 2000’s) have been waiting for half of a score for what was once considered a highly anticipated album. Jay Electronic has at times been regarded as an emcee’s emcee. He has maintained this cult like status for the better part of two decades even having never dropped a full album. Well, the wait is over folks, the time has come, we are FINALLY going to get a full body of work. Electronica hinted on his instagram that after 40 days and 40 nights in the studio concentrating, he would then in 40 days release his debut. After such a long and drawn out wait, one wonders if the material will live up to the hype. It is also a wonder if the attention deficit within the hiphop community warrants any hype at all. After all of the near misses that surrounded pr...
MOZZY : TUNNEL VISION
One of the most underrated vocalists out of the Bay Area Mozzy has once again hit the streets with a scorcher. Mozzy isn’t new to the scene. His relentless grind and dedication to the craft has seen him emerge as on of the most prolific artists out of the west coasts new era. It is a Grind that has been nonstop for the better part of the last decade. Mozzy uses his signature growly voice with a heavy California street vernacular to grip his audience with tales that are all to familiar to many disenfranchised youth throughout the country. This latest melodic single is sure to hit those who take the time to listen on many levels. Mozzy brings back lyricism and paints vivid pictures with his wordplay and continue to be a “one to watch” by adopting what seems to be the mantra...
Jim Jones: CAPO: The album that keeps on giving
Jim Jones gave arguably one of the best and most authentic NY hip hop albums last year with the release of CAPO. New York, the birthplace of modern-day hiphop had been in a decline in the genre for the better part of two decades. In the last 3-4 years however. the grimy grittiness of the New York sound has seemingly experienced a resurgence. Artists like Casanova 2X, Troy Ave before the infamous Irving plaza saga, Joey Bad Ass, The Griselda movement, and a host of other artists began to bring the crown back to it’s rightful home. No Album exemplified that more than the 2019 release of CAPO by Jim Jones. Jim stayed tru to the Dipset formula by returning home for a completely produced Heat Makerz rollout. The album sonically represents a timeless moment that can only be characterized a...
Hot Ni&&@: Bobby Schmurda new mixtape and pending release
A 19 year old Bobby Schmuda slapped the world in the face with his hit single Hot Ni&&@ in late 2013. In addition a take from Puff Daddy’s signature movements became know as the schmoney dance. What followed was literally Epic. A large deal for a virtual unknown with Epic records. Bobby was on top of the world. The position would have been enviable to any pre-twenty something. It all came crumbling down on an early December morning when along with 14 others Bobby was arrested. The group of individuals all considered to members of a Brooklyn street gang Gs9 were carted off to Jail and that’s where the story for a lot of young black males end. Bobby however managed to stay somewhat relative with a prison feature on Tekashi el raton 69’s single,bozoo. His release which is slated to be...
The Funeral: Lil Wayne 1/31/2020
Forgive me for saying, but haven’t we witnessed this already? I mean seriously. We waited for half a decade for the Carter V. Much anticipated would be a better way to describe a Popeyes Chicken sandwich. Is this album truly highly anticipated? ‘Don’t get me wrong, Lil Wayne’s has commandeered a few of my favorite tunes. The long-standing feud between Lil Wayne and his adoptive father played out through the media. All things happening without as much as a drop of music in a digital age. This age where artists remain hot for a millisecond as the consumers continue to consume. The Carter V left even the most dedicated Lil Wayne fans felling a bit underwhelmed. Let’s hope this album will be a return to the hip hop heavens holy sanctum.
