This sneaker got its very own retro back in 2014 and sneakerheads have been asking...
Young M.A gives her opinion on the climate of music today, saying that it feels imbalanced due to the lack of quality R&B music being made. The music industry today is interesting to say the least. One one hand, artists have never been more diverse with the genre-bending hits we’ve heard over the last decade — emcees sing just as frequently as they spit bars, vocalists often choose trap beats over melodic instrumentation, and some of today’s hottest musicians like Post Malone, Trippie Redd and Rico Nasty for example exhibit a style somewhere between rock, rap and heavy metal. With all that said, the love seems to...

Meek Mill is a true Dream Chaser. The social media era has saturated the market with tons of artists. Many of them will be here today, gone tomorrow, while very few will actually make a mark in the music industry. However, the state of music today has drawn a lot of criticism from fans, critics, and artists alike. Meek Mill, for example, issued a tweet earlier today declaring the end of wack music. “This year wack music will perish,” he wrote on Twitter.
