Drake reflects on a classic era in which he, Lil Wayne, and Nicki Minaj all but ruled the hip-hop charts. Since rising to prominence in the late nineties with a distinctly New Orleans sound, Birdman‘s Cash Money Records has become one of hip-hop’s most widely recognizable labels, sparking a musical lineage that would eventually lead to Drake. As an integral piece of the movement, Lil Wayne’s own brainchild extension YMCMB served to bring the legendary Drake and Nicki Minaj to the world, thus sparking a dynasty many still hold in the highest regard. Though he has since moved on to forge...
Chris Brown shared a crude meme about getting checked for sexually-transmitted diseases, which some are reading as disrespectful to Ammika Harris. Chris Brown likely didn’t think this post would result in such backlash but, alas, everything he does ends up causing a stir online. Sharing a meme about his sexual health after a “long weekend of partying,” the Virginia native posted a meme that celebrated his STD-free status, but some people are seeing this as disrespectful to the woman who just had his child. The singer has had several love interests over the course of the last two years...
LaVar Ball doubles down on his hopes for LaMelo Ball to be drafted by the New York Knicks: “Melo is a big city guy.” It’s been a while since we’ve heard from LaVar Ball and although nobody was complaining about that, FS1 felt it necessary to give the Ball Father some air time on Tuesday’s episode of Undisputed. As always, LaVar had plenty of outlandish predictions, including how his oldest son Lonzo will lead the Pelicans to victory over the Lakers in the playoffs and how his middle son, LiAngelo, will lead the league in scoring one day. When...
New York Knicks issues statement on Spike Lee incident: “It’s disappointing that Spike would create this false controversy to perpetuate drama.” The New York Knicks are officially beefing with Spike Lee over a childish dispute about which entrance he is supposed to use when entering Madison Square Garden. Prior to Monday night’s victory over the Houston Rockets, Lee was spotted arguing with MSG security guards and yelling, “You wanna arrest me like Charles Oakley?!” The Knicks attempted to downplay the incident as a simple miscommunication, but Spike went on ESPN’s First Take this morning and ripped team owner James...
Lil Uzi Vert is holding a poll on Twitter for which cover art he should use for his sophomore album, “Eternal Atake”. You gotta love an interactive album rollout. As frustrating as it could be when albums repeatedly get delayed, it can be fun when artists take us along for the ride. Think about the mess that was Kanye West‘s The Life Of Pablo release. We had to undergo the stress of tracklist modifications, bewildering Twitter rants and multiple postponements to arrive at the final drop. However, now, we all probably look back at that experience as an exciting time that...

Spike Lee found himself in a bit of a predicament with the New York Knicks recently. Spike Lee has been one of the biggest fans of the New York Knicks over the last few decades even though they haven’t really given him very much to cheer about. The Knicks have been an abysmal franchise for many years now and it’s quite clear that they won’t be getting any better any time soon. Despite Lee’s fandom, the Knicks don’t seem to value him as a spectator. For instance, last night saw a strange debacle between Lee and security. After being...
Tekashi 6ix9ine wasn't the only snitch in the government's case against the Tr3ways. Kristian "CEO Kris" Cruz had been a federal informant for years, ever since he got picked up for moving heroin from China. Like 6ix9ine, testified in court against Aljermiah "Nuke" Mack and Anthony "Harv" Ellison. Yesterday, Kris was sentenced to more or less time served. Both the gov’t and his lawyer stressed his extraordinary cooperation – the best they’d ever seen. The judge acknowledged that when he said, “If not now, when?” – meaning there was no better example of a cooperator to give a t.s....
