Last year, 21 Savage had one of the most bizarre moments in hip-hop history when he was arrested and detained by ICE and it was discovered that the Atlanta-based rapper is an immigrant from the United Kingdom. All of this took place just days after the release of the music video for his single "a lot." At the time, the 27-year-old emcee was coming off of the success of his sophomore studio album, I Am > I Was (2018), and his single featuring Dreamville head honcho, J. Cole had just began to dominate throughout the music industry.

When Eminem released Revival in 2017, his fans and critics alike were wary of the rapper's relevance to today's broad musical climate. The following year, the Detroit-native responded to criticism of the record with the release of Kamikaze (2018) and proved to the masses that his pen was just as prominent as it ever was. Now, one week following the drop of his surprise LP, Music To Be Murdered By (2020), Billboard has revealed that Eminem's latest musical offering has officially debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 200 Albums Chart. 

The 2020 Grammy award for the Best Rap Performance has been awarded to Nipsey Hussle for the late rapper's "Racks In The Middle" collaboration with Roddy Rich and producer Hit-Boy. Together, the trio beat out J. Cole & Dreamville's "MIDDLE CHILD" and "Down Bad" selections, Offset and Cardi B's "Clout," and DaBaby's "Suge."

It marks the first Grammy win for Hussle and Compton breakout Roddy Ricch. Nip's family took to the stage to accept the award on his behalf.

“I wanted to thank all of you for showing all the love that I have felt for him all of his life and will always live in my heart,"  said his grandmother onstage. "So, thank you. Thank you. Thank you.” 

It was last year that Nipsey Hussle was gunned down in broad daylight in front of his Marathon Clothing store in Los Angeles. His life was celebrated at the very same Staples Center where he posthumously won the prestigious award Sunday evening.

"I speak on behalf of our family and the All Money In family and Nip, who was a phenomenal vessel," said Lauren London Sunday night. "Nip did it, not just for the awards, but for the people and God allowed him to use his music to speak his truth, give us wisdom and something that we will forever be able to live with."

It's an interesting year for Beyoncé at the Grammys. We're used to her being nominated for music that belongs to her solo discography, but at the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards, she is being recognized for her participation in the world of motion pictures. Bey was tied to two cinematic projects last year, Homecoming and The Lion King. Homecoming, a Netflix exclusive documenting her monumental Coachella performance in 2018, earned a nomination for Best Music Film, while Bey's other three nominations are for her Lion King work. 

The pre-show Grammy awards have begun to be doled out and Beyoncé scored a win in the Best Music Film category. Homecoming beat out David Crosby's Remember My Name, Stanley Nelson's Miles Davis: Birth of the Cool, Morgan Neville's Shangri-La and Thom Yorke/Paul Thomas Anderson's Anima. Other contributors to Homecoming being recognized through this win include Bey's co-director, Ed Burke, and producers, Steve Pamon and Erinn Williams. It's great to see Homecoming honoured by the Grammys, as it was shut out of all six of the Emmy categories in which it was nominated. 

“Music’s biggest night” is here. The industry’s finest have all gathered in Los Angeles to celebrate what the Recording Academy has deemed to be the best of the past year. Among nominees, Lizzo leads the pack with eight nods, followed behind by Billie Eilish and Lil Nas X who have six nominations each. 

Per the Hollywood Reporter, the non-televised portion of the awards show has already settled on the grim news of the death of Kobe Bryant and his 13-year-old daughter Gianna early Sunday evening, honoring their memories with a moment of silence. 

Alicia Keys is set to host the full ceremony as the evening’s stars move forward to collect their awards throughout the night. Keep up below with the night’s winners:

By now, you've probably seen Cardi B and Offset's looks from the Clive Davis Pre-Grammy Gala on Saturday night. Whenever the hip-hop couple steps out for a big event, the world takes notice and Offset grabbing a handful of Cardi's boob last night was definitely worthy of attention. The "Bodak Yellow" rapper dressed in a plunging pink gown, exposing so much cleavage that she took to Instagram to complain "Babe my titties keep poppin out." Offset was happy to assist her with this problem by holding her breasts in place.

The Migos member also helped his partner fix her hair on the red carpet. A video captured the adorable moment of Offset ensuring that every strand of hair was properly sleeked back so photos of her aren't jeopardized. After performing this task, Offset promptly moves out of her spotlight to silently stand on the side with his hands clasped together in front of him. It almost appears that he was trained to be in servitude to Cardi, which will have many declaring that they are "couple goals". When your girl's as fine as Cardi, you make sure she has her time to shine. 

The road to Playboi Carti's forthcoming album, Whole Lotta Red, has been longer than expected or hoped. He has provided multiple teasers that have misled us into believing that the project's release was not far away, even though it still hasn't made its way into our hands. Given how many times Carti seemed prepared to drop it, WLR must be sitting on a hard-drive somewhere waiting to receive the green light to be freed. There's not much that we know about the album. Carti's cover story for FADER detailed that he had been working a lot with Metro Boomin and secured guest features from Gunna and Trippie Redd for unreleased songs. However, that story came out at the beginning of last summer and it's very likely that Whole Lotta Red has since evolved into a new permutation. 

This new permutation might include an appearance from the legendary Yung Lean. Footage from IG stories show that Carti and Yung Lean linked up in the studio on Friday night. A snippet was shared of one song they cooked up, but only Lean is heard performing a rapping-singing hybrid on it. Considering that both of these artists have been pioneers of drug rap in their own right and have brought truly distinct styles to the music world, a collaboration between them is bound to be magical. 

K-Pop supergroup BTS sold the microphones for all seven members from their Love Yourself tour at a MusiCares Grammy Week auction on Friday, and apparently, they were worth a lot. The mics sold for a whopping $83,000 in total, exceeding far and wide their pre-auction estimate of between $10,000 and $20,000. These were the first-ever auction items authorized to be sold by BTS. The boyband is set to hit the stage on Sunday night alongside Lil Nas X, Billy Ray Cyrus, Diplo, and Mason Ramsay for a killer Grammys performance.

Another group that will be taking the stage at the award show are rock legends Aerosmith, who will perform with their former collaborator, Run DMC. Aerosmith were the honorees of MusiCares Person of the Year tribute this year, and they decided to donate some of their prized possessions to the auction as well. Steven Tyler autographed a Shure SM58 microphone as well as an accompanying white microphone stand covered in his signature scarves. The mic and stand nabbed $7,680, as did Joe Perry’s autographed Gibson Les Paul Signature guitar.

Other musicians also made incredible contributions to the auction. Tom Petty’s estate donated a limited-edition watch made from the leather of one of the late artist’s guitar straps, engraved with “Made with leather donated by Tom Petty.” It sold for over $22,000. Halsey’s artwork, which she made live during her SNL performance this Saturday, sold for $7,680. A Stevie Nicks-signed tambourine she had used on stage sold for $10,240, and Eddie Vedder’s ukulele covered in his own drawings went for $8,960. All proceeds from the auction went towards the Recording Academy’s MusiCares program, which provides health, financial, and rehabilitation resources to music people in times of need.

The entirety of hip-hop is pretty much obsessed with Zodiac signs. We can go as far as back as OutKast’s 1998 album Aquemini, the title for which combined Big Boi’s astrological sign with that of Andre 3000’s. Nicki throws out Sag vibes on her 2018 single “Barbie Tingz” with the line, “Sagittarius so you know I’m an optimist.” Last week Newlyweds Safaree and Erica Mena had an insightful 20 minute astrology reading that went in depth about their personalities and past relationships.

Drake loves to highlight the fact that he’s a Scorpio even naming a summer 2018 double album Scorpion after one of the symbols of the sign, beyond the October’s Very Own collective alluding to it. Beyoncé has also weighed in on her zodiac sign; Virgo. In an interview with Dazed & Confused she said “she’s a Virgo to a tee..a control freak…and pays attention to details.” In fact, on her 2003 album Dangerously in Love, she had two songs about astrology: “Gifts from a Virgo” and “Signs.”

The examples are endless, so we decided to make it easy and round up the rappers that reflect the best and not-so-best characteristics of their sign.  

Aquarius: Gucci Mane

Progressive, original, emotional, uncompromising

Gucci Mane is the OG Aquarius. His progressive side has been showing throughout his 10+ year career. When Guwop debuted in 2005 with his mixtape Trap House, he definitely set the Atlanta streets and later, the nation on fire. Gucci was one of the early pioneers of trap music, helping catapult it into the genre it is today, and co-signing some of Atlanta’s biggest stars to follow, including Young Thug and Migos before his 3-year incarceration in 2014. Today 1017 is an Alamo imprint, he’s married the love of his life Keyshia Ka’oir in a lavish wedding in 2017, and he signed rising star Asian Doll as the first female signee in 2018; although she left the label this year. Like a true Aquarius he’s also original and unique, tattooing an Ice Cream Cone on his face and making the ad lib Brrr a trademark of his music. While some veteran rappers have a lot to say about the direction trap music has taken, Gucci’s remained a supporter of the new generation signing acts like Hoodrich Pablo Juan and Lil’ Wop as well. He’s made his mark as a CEO, actor in Harmony Korine’s 2012 hit Springbreakers and continues to be an artist loved by all.

Pisces: Tyler the Creator

Compassionate, artistic, gentle, sad, musical

Tyler the Creator really made waves this year with the release of his acclaimed album IGOR which was nominated for Best Rap Album at the 2020 Grammys. Tyler is a multi-disciplinary artist at this point with his fashion designs, Camp Flognaw, elaborate stage sets and costumes. He’s transcended just being a recording artist and moved into performance art with his lush videos as well as aesthetic. The emotion in his latest album IGOR, which describes a love triangle between him, a guy he’s seeing and the guy’s girlfriend are relatable while remaining very Pisces-like.

Aries: Quavo

Confident, enthusiastic, impatient

April 21, 1991 Quavious “Quavo” Marshall was born and he’s kept exhibiting Aries’ traits ever sense. Part of rap trio, Migos, they’re some of Atlanta’s most successful exports with 2 Grammy nominations in addition to having the most simultaneous hits on the Billboard Charts. He’s confident enough to land a baddie like Saweetie, enthusiastic with the ad-libs, and all these traits can come together to create the perfect storm if anyone is not taking him or his music seriously as was demonstrated the Joe Budden beef.

Patient, reliable, devoted, responsible, uncompromising, hard working

Travis Scott’s sound has gone from Platinum Verb to Space Designer right before our eyes and introduced us to Astroworld; an album + festival bigger than music in the past two years. In his first mainstream breakthrough, Days Before Rodeo which was released in 2014, Scott talks about moving to LA and living in an apartment with a bunch of other guys just to get a shot at this music thing. Well it worked out for him in a major way, and now he has Stormi, his adorable daughter, Kylie Jenner as a baby moms, plus much more career success on the way.

Gemini: Kanye West

Curious, adaptable, ability to learn quick, intelligent, impulsive

Who could be more of a Gemini than ‘Ye? He has never waited for any one to help him achieve any of his numerous dreams, from being a designer, to starting his own church (of sorts). Kanye is clearly an intelligent guy, despite any impulsiveness that may find him interjecting in a harsh manner  (think: VMAs) or popping up with some controversial opinions.

Cancer: 50 Cent

Kevin Winter/Getty Images

Highly imaginative, emotional, moody, persuasive

Honestly, 50 Cent being a Cancer makes the most sense. He burst onto the scene with Get Rich or Die Tryin’ in 2003. After a long career as a musician, he turned into an entrepreneur and co-producer of hit show Power in addition to keeping us laughing online all the time with his memorable/petty IG beefs. He definitely seems to have his moods. Whether or not you agree with his methods, the man is truly an entertainer and keeps reinventing while simultaneously reimagining ways to stay on top.

Leo: Lil Uzi Vert

Creative, passionate, warm-hearted, cheerful, humorous

Lil Uzi is the most Leo Leo there is. Leos love the spotlight and are natural entertainers. Uzi has displayed a natural stage presence full of energy and endless creativity. He’s also a viral trendsetter with the latest hype surrounding his single and dance, “Futsal Shuffle 2020.” His first mixtape Luv is Rage (2015), threw a wrench into the mainstream sound and garnered positive reviews from both the underground and commercial worlds. It also showed his loyalty, including his then-girlfriend Brittany on the album art. His success didn’t stop there and he continued to flaunt his boisterous yet charismatic flow on hits like “Bad & Boujee” as well as his top 10 single “XO Llif3 Tour.” A lot is still in store for Uzi as his fans await the release of his second studio album Eternal Atake.

Leos:

Soulja Boy

Chief Keef

Sagittarius: Jay-Z

Straight-forward, optimistic, restless, progressive and adventurous

For Sagittarius, Hov is representing the sign well. According to Jay-Z’s mom, Shawn Carter was born December 4th weighing in at 10 pounds 8 ounces and was the only one who didn’t give her any pain during birth. During his life, he’s shown off his progressive Sag trait by becoming one of the greatest rappers of all time as well as a songwriter, entrepreneur and more. His accomplishments are far too numerous to even begin to list here, but the optimism and restlessness of his sign have led him into a power coupledom with Beyoncé, ownership of Tidal, ownership of Armand de Brignac, as well as huge success with his management agency Roc Nation. From the beginning with his debut 1996 album Reasonable Doubt, he’s had the music industry on lock.

Scorpio: Drake

Secretive, passionate, calculating, brooding, ambitious, sexual

Drizzy Drake will be a Scorpio legend for a long time with over a decade of steady hits. He’s managed to become the voice of at least two generations from his time acting on Degrassi as a teenager, to his transition to rap in the late 2000s/2010s. Not only has Drake put Canada on the map and opened the door for the talent coming out of Toronto like The Weeknd, PartyNextDoor, Nav, Rochelle Jordan, Majiid Jordan etc. he’s taken the country across the world on multiple excessive tours. His Scorpio nature is all over his songs from the moody production, to the trust issues displayed in his lyrics.

Virgo: Beyoncé 

Kevin Winter/Getty Images

Loyal, analytical, kind, hardworking, practical, shy

We had to veer from the rapper-led course because Queen Bey has proved to us that she can flow with the best of them on tracks like “APESHIT,” from her 2018 collaborative album Everything is Love. A true performer in every sense, Beyoncé is also a hardworking and a perfectionist just like a Virgo. Her stage sets are legendary and her dance skills have been popping since she was little in one of her first groups Girls Tyme. Her Virgo loyalty is on full display with longtime bae Jay-Z (they’ve been dating publicly since 2004 and married since 2008). Just like Jay, she has too many accomplishments to list including headlining an unforgettable Coachella two weeks in a row after giving birth to twins and making a documentary about it in 2018. Her release Lemonade, an hour long video album and special that debuted at #1 on Billboard in 2016 with no promo was also a milestone. All in all, Beyoncé is Queen of the Virgos and we’re here to pay homage. 

Virgos:

Lil Yachty

Libra: 21 Savage

Carmen Mandato/Getty Images

Diplomatic, artistic, intelligent, fair, understanding

21 Savage was rapping for approximately 1 year before the release of his 2015 breakthrough, Slaughtertape. Savage Mode with Metro Boomin’ was the primary put on, but he’s kept the balance like a true Libra ever since. Libras are known for their intelligence and 21 is no different. After a few years in the spotlight, he stopped buying jewelry to “save money… and increase his own wealth.” As far as diplomacy goes, 21 is a great example. Any minor beef that has arisen he actively takes steps to diffuse, like with Layzie Bone. He reached out and apologized before it went to far. In love, like a true Libra, he likes to spoil and be spoiled. His long and well-documented affair with Amber Rose was full of gifts including matching iced out watches. Clearly this was before the jewelry fast. Love can make you do crazy things. Currently, 21 is back in the US after an ordeal with immigration and made the Forbes 30 under 30 list in December. 2020 seems to have a lot in store for him.

Capricorn: DaBaby

Ambitious, persistent, sensitive, practical, disciplined, DIY

DaBaby has had enough of a year to be the Capricorn Rap Representative. He went viral when he brought the Jabbawockees back, has been touring persistently and talks openly about how he engineered his come-up with DIY marketing methods like wearing a diaper at SXSW and using a street team. Capricorns don’t put their sensitivity on display but after a well-received interview came out with his baby mama where she had only great things to say about his role as a father, we know he’s got a soft side like any true Cap.
