Kanye West, Mobb Deep's very own Havoc, Westside Gunn, and more teamed up for a series of photos that have the internet wondering if a Yeezus and Havoc-produced musical collaboration is in the works between the multitalented individuals. Just days ago, the Griselda clan of Conway the Machine, Benny the Butcher, and Westside Gunn linked up with Jay Z and attendedKanye West's Sunday Service performance all within the same weekend. Now, the upcoming Buffalo-bred emcee family has come together with the legendary Mobb Deep head honcho and theYEEZY footwear curator for an exclusive meeting that could result in an iconic musical moment for the culture.

In the series of photos originally posted by the"Shook Ones" rapper, Westside Gunn, and TeamKanyeDaily earlier today (March 12)– Havoc, Ye, Westside, and Conway stand in front of multiple militarized offroad vehicles on one of Kanye's many Wyoming acres. Havoc's additional photo features a solo shot of the Queens-born rapper standing atop one of the vehicle's continuous track propulsion system. Westside Gunn added another photo of Kanye and his clique fellowshipping with the 21-time Grammy Award winner in a private jet. 

With over three million followers (and growing) on Instagram alone, Lala Milan is an “internet famous” success story. She began her career creating her own funny skits and clips online, and after building a worldwide following, she grabbed the attention of brands. Lala wanted to be taken more seriously as an actress and finally, she nabbed a role on BET’s Boomerang which is now in its second season.

The multi-talented entertainer is open to trying new avenues in the industry in order to continue building her brand, but Nick Cannon advised her not to go the rapping route. Lala was a guest on Power 106‘s Nick Cannon Mornings where the Wild ‘n Out mogul told Lala to steer clear of the music game. He said he was giving her the advice from experience, and that’s when she let him know that he can’t rap.

“You still trying,” she said. Nick made it clear that he doesn’t put out albums anymore and he’s not rapping. “I got a whole lotta talents,” Nick said. “Rapping is just one of the things that I used to do… People like to joke, but I got really rich off of rap.” Lala wasn’t having it. “No, it’s not,” she said jokingly. “Nick, listen [that was] back then. Just stop. Collect the residuals and keep it pushin’. My God.” Watch Lala Milan on Nick Cannon Mornings below.

Billie Eilish tour dates have officially been postponed. In wake of the Coronavirus epidemic, the Grammy-award winning singer is among the many artists that have been forced to push back their tour dates. Eleven dates have been affected including tomorrow night’s show that was supposed to take place at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, PA. Other dates affected include her show at Madison Square Garden in New York City as well as her Brooklyn date at Barclays Center.

“I’m so sad to do this but we need to postpone these dates to keep everyone safe,” she wrote. “We’ll let you know when they can be rescheduled. Please keep yourselves healthy. I love you.”

No word on when these dates would be rescheduled but this appears to be part of Live Nation’s plan to cancel all events after WHO called Coronavirus a pandemic. Post Malone is also among the artists affected by the decision. Billboard reports that Live Nation will reevaluate the situation in April as they anticipate having these tour dates resume in a few months.

Peep the dates affected below. 

03/13 – Wells Fargo Center – Philadelphia, PA
03/15 – Madison Square Garden – New York, NY
03/16 – Prudential Center – Newark, NJ
03/18 – Capital One Center – Washington, DC
03/19 – TD Garden – Boston, MA
03/20 – Barclays Center – Brooklyn, NY
03/23 – Little Caesars Arena – Detroit, MI
03/24 – United Center – Chicago, IL
03/25 – Bankers Life Fieldhouse – Indianapolis, IN
03/27 – Bridgestone Arena – Nashville, TN
03/28 – Enterprise Center – St. Louis, MO

We know that Drake‘s working on a new album but what else does he have in store for the remainder of the year? According to The Blast, a whole lot. The rapper reportedly filed a motion to the court requesting his assault trial gets pushed back until 2021 at the earliest. The rapper was initially scheduled to head to trial on July 21st, 2020 but his request to have the trial delayed was reasoned with his “professional commitments all over the world.” The earliest he said that he’d be available is Feb. 2021.

Drake isn’t the only one who asked to have the trial set back. His co-defendant, Odell Beckham Jr., asked to have the trial date also pushed back to mid-Feb. 2021 because he’ll be occupied with “professional commitments tied to his football season” this summer. 

OBJ and Drake are listed in a lawsuit alongside Younges Bendjima, the ex-boyfriend of Kourney Kardashian. All three men were sued after Bennett Sipes accused them of assaulting him in March 2018 at Delilah nightclub. Sipes claimed members of Drake and OBJ’s clique, along with Bendjima went on to “push, shove, kick and repeatedly punch Plaintiff in the face and body.”

Drake and OBJ denied the claims with the Canadian rapper claiming Bendjima is the only person in the security footage assaulting the Sipes. 

Lil Uzi Vert has plenty of music in the cut, even as he aims to have the number one album in the country next week and possibly outselling Eminem's Music To Be Murdered By first-week debut. Lil Uzi Vert Vs. The World 2 was announced in 2017 following the release of LUV Is Rage 2 but along with Eternal Atake, fans have been waiting for this project. Thankfully, it'll be dropping "sooner than you think."

As we await the 14-song addition to the Eternal Atake for the deluxe edition, it appears the "bonus tracks" will actually come in the form of LUV Vs. The World 2. "I put 2 albums in one second-half of EA is LUV vs The World 2," he wrote on Twitter after sharing the cover art for the project.

Uzi's teased information surrounding the "bonus tracks" over the past few days. He recently revealed that we'll get two songs with Young Thug on the project. While the deluxe edition of EA was initially announced as having eight songs, he clearly expanded past that. The rapper also teased that the project would include guest appearances from Lil Baby, Future, and A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie.

With LUV Vs. The World 2 serving as the deluxe edition of Eternal Atake, Uzi fans are EATING in 2020. Maybe once this whole Coronavirus pandemic simmers down, we can expect a tour from him as well. Peep the tweets below. 

Machine Gun Kelly has been flexing his skills outside the realms of rap lately, from acting in upcoming films like Big Time Adolescence alongside Pete Davidson and action-western flick The Last Son Of Isaac LeMay to plans of dropping a punk pop album. However, the papaya-loving emcee assures us all that he will not be abandoning hip-hop or the music industry anytime soon.

The self-prcolaimed "blonde don" took to Twitter yesterday (March 11) to give his million-plus followers an update on his current career moves. "Just because i’m acting doesn’t mean i stop making music," he wrote, following with another line that read, "just because i’m making a pop punk album doesn’t mean i stop rapping." A move from hardcore hip-hop into the indie/alternative scene might be scary for some artists, but MGK says that doesn't apply to him by also adding, "just because ‘you’ fear something new doesn’t mean i’m going to." He concluded his message with one final line that read, "a creative’s job is to break the barriers not stay inside them," ending things with the simple statement "i’m bored of normal." Wheter or not his rapper-turned-actor status or the Tickets To My Downfall album prove to be missteps in the long run, we just commend the dude for following his own path as an artist.

Read Machine Gun Kelly's original tweet below and let us know if you agree with his overall message:

Live Nation is halting all domestic and international tours as a temporary measure, due to the growing concerns over the coronavirus outbreak around the world. Per Billboard, the event promoter has instructed all of its touring shows to pack their bags and head home for the time being. Following suite of other events around the world that attract large gatherings of people, current touring arena shows under Live Nation will be cancelled through the end of the month in an effort to prevent the spread of coronavirus. Select shows on Thursday and Friday this week will, however, proceed as scheduled. The company plans to re-evaluate the situation come April, with hopes of resuming touring by May or June. Among the tours affected are Post Malone, Billie Eilish, Jason Aldean, Zac Brown Band, Cher, Kiss, Tool, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Chris Stapleton.

Live Nation has also ordered all of its employees not to come into the office, and instead work remotely from home. For the most part, their Beverly Hills headquarters will be closed until the end of March. Despite the unfortunate circumstances, the company is not planning to lay off any employees, as staff have been informed that the company is “well-positioned to weather the closure.”

Quavo was unfortunately forced to cancel his third annual Huncho Day on the Nawf football event, under the advisement of health professionals in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak. As coronavirus continues to impact virtually every event and public space worldwide, Quavo’s Huncho Day has also fallen victim to the threat of COVID-19. On Thursday, the Migo shared an official message on his Instagram, informing his fans and prospective Huncho Day attendees that the special football event had to be cancelled due to the now-pandemic status of coronavirus. 

“Due to the Coronavirus being declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO); along with public and government concern regarding crowd gatherings, we will be cancelling the 3rd Annual Huncho Day on the Nawf on April 5, 2020,” the message reads. “We are disappointed, but feel strongly about doing our part to keep people safe and this virus contained. Thanks for your support and understanding. Please make sure you’re taking the necessary steps to take care of yourself and your family.” The announcement was signed by Quavo himself, who wrote in the caption, “HUNCHO DAY 2020 CANCELLED. Stay Safe Everybody. God Bless You All”

Quavo launched Huncho Day back in 2018 in an effort to give back to his high school alma mater, Berkmar High School. The event comprises of a carnival for families, a football camp for kids, and a star-studded game of flag football. Past years have seen celebrities like 21 Savage, Offset, Lil Yachty, 2 Chainz, YFN Lucci take the field to toss the old pigskin around, and last year, former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick even made an appearance. The event will surely be missed this year by all those who planned to attend.

At long last, Jay Electronica's debut studio album, A Written Testimony, is set to arrive on March 18th, and the elusive and stoic rapper has officially sent the tracklist out into the world. Dropping the reveal exclusively in Arabic, his English-speaking fans took the additional measure of hitting that Google translates with the quickness. As such, it didn't take long before a rough translation began circulating the internet, revealing ten songs, features from Travis Scott and The-Dream, and the alarming absence of Jay-Z.

Roughly translated, we're looking at:

1. The Omnipotent Event
2. The Ghost of Soulja Slim
3. Blinding (feat. Travis Scott)
4. The Eternal Tale
5. The Cosmic Soldier
6. The Brilliant Suit Theory (feat. The-Dream)
7. Intensive Flowing
8. The Fruits of the Soul
9. The Wheel of Ezekiel (feat. The-Dream)
10. Praise Be to God

Curiously, it was originally reported that the project would feature a "heavy Jay-Z presence," with the legendary rapper said to be blessing over seven of the album's tracks. It's entirely possible that Jay Electronica has decided to keep the Jigga Man uncredited; these days, discovery is half the fun, and the suspense will certainly encourage fans to simply sit back and hit play. Otherwise, the fact that one of the only features comes courtesy of Travis Scott, who might be the antithesis of Jay Elec's style, has already piqued our interest.

Though it's arriving during a time where shit has hit the fan and the blades have yet to stop spinning, the hype for A Written Testimony continues to build. Perhaps it's the product of its own mystique, the long-awaited conclusion to a narrative years in the making. Whether it lives up to the hype is anybody's guess, but we won't have to wait much longer to find out. 

Out of absolutely nowhere, Lil Uzi Vert shocked the world when he released Eternal Atake last week. The album had been rumoured for the following week but we were all getting tired of waiting and, apparently, so was Uzi. Without much notice, the project was uploaded to streaming services and, ever since its arrival, we've been bumping it heavily. It should come as no surprise that this week's staff-curated TIDAL-exclusive playlist features a shit-ton of Uzi songs, as well as choice selections from Lil Baby, Megan Thee Stallion, Lil Yachty, and more.

Cruising through the 32-song tracklist for this week's playlist, you'll notice a lot of Lil Uzi Vert. Hopefully, you're feeling EA as much as we are in the office. Our additions from the hit album include "Celebration Station," "P2," "Silly Watch," "Baby Pluto," and more.

In another direction, we've also added Lil Yachty's high-class return single "Oprah's Bank Account," as well as a couple of Jadakiss bangers, the new Grafh and Hopsin joint, and some slowed-down jams from Jhené Aiko. You're getting lots of variety (and even more Uzi) this week.
