DMX, Snoop and the lack of legendary leadership
On July 22, 2020, I witnessed one of my top three favorite Verzuz battles between two legends in hip hop, my spirit animal DMX, and the party starter Uncle Snoop. I have favorite songs from both artists (DMX -Slippin and Snoop – Cruising featuring Jadakiss, or Jadakiss featuring Snoop depending on who you ask) and […]

Blurred Lines
Shoutout to the guys over at K A Psi. You guys just celebrated another year of existence. I’m cool with several Kappas, Nupes, bunnies, whatever you want to call them, and knew several before they shimmyed on down Diggs Lane to get their letters. The ones I know are a prideful bunch, but are stand […]
Ready to drink and Joff?
I recently came across a snippet of a song called “Cinderella” on IG. I reached out to ppl and they told me that 5/1/19 was the day that UC Joff was dropping his “HearthrobOoch” EP. I decided to check out his old work as a primer for the new project. What I heard was the […]

Journalism or Jiving?
Many of us have seen the Hot97/Kodak black interaction by now. Ebro saw it fit to address recent legal troubles Kodak has experienced and stated that he wanted to debrief after the resolution of said cases. Kodak reacted by saying well, I’m not here for that bruh. Most of the interview felt weird energy wise. […]
Upstaging ain’t always a bad thing…
When I think of upstaging someone, I think of winning at their expense. Shitting on them, making them feel inferior, something along those lines. JR Writer, 40 cal, and Hell Rell joined forces to drop the “the Upstage” project right around the time of the new Dipset project. Regardless of whether the timing was planned […]
Meek vs the system
UPDATE: MEEK IS FREE! First off, free Meek, I hope he returns to the free world sooner than later. To be on some combination of physical incarceration/probation/parole/house arrest for almost a decade for a bad conviction that occurred when he was only a teen is a bit excessive. For the District Attorney and Probation Officer […]
