Not that I really care.. or any of you for that matter.. but I guess this is interesting news for some. XXL Mag recently caught up with Freddie Gibbs after a concert to talk about his album and somehow got on the subject of CTE and Jeezy. For those of you who are HYPEBEASTS and may not know it.. Gibbs was signed to Jeezy's CTE label a while back but split back in December. When asked was Jeezy supportive of Gibbs doing solo..he replied: Fuck no. Anything he tells you, it’s going [...]

Being in a band is a dream for a lot of people; however, just being in a band isn't good enough. Seriously, playing in your garage was fine in the 70’s, but now it’s all about getting your name out there.  Building a loyal fan base is a huge deal for any band. Let’s face it a band is nothing without fans! In order to do that you need gigs. First of all, you have to get back to the basics . Even if you book a show at a local bar or restaurant [...]

Just heard a new song on the radio called "I hate being sober" I now have serious doubt for the world. — Katy Perry (@katyperry) May 21, 2013 It all started when Katy Perry heard Chief Keef's "Hate Being Sober" for the first time. Rather than keeping her feelings about the record to herself, the "I Kissed A Girl" singer took to Twitter to slam the song. And just like everything said on the social media website, the diss got back [...]

Nine stops, 48 hours, and a whole lot of animal flesh. Here is an enjoyable recollection of a Texas BBQ trip recently completed by a long-time friend of mine known simply as The Legend . The article, published earlier this week on the EatItAtlata website, is not for the faint of heart or those with any aversion to eating cow. Overall a great trip was had (approx 700 miles in the car….), some disappointments (I’m looking at you Lockhart, [...]

Lil Kim is very much known as the queen of hip hop. The original. The real thing when it comes to female rappers. Although recently, her image has completely changed in some people's minds (except for her loyal fans) since her rather catastrophic cosmetic surgery. Whilst in New York last week, Lil' Kim was papped and it wasn't the most flattering picture we have to say. We're not the only ones who thought so either. TV and radio presenter Wendy Williams saw the picture and even a fan [...]

Rave is synonymous with acid house parties that use light and laser shows along with electronic music. Rave has many definitions to its name. In 1999, Gibson defined the term as a harmonizing practice of music, dance, and light. He considered rave parties to be the powerful entertainment event that allowed individuals to experience the magic of trance, personal issues, and religion. Another definition tells that rave is a global subculture that follows the ethical code of conduct, develops deep philosophical thoughts, forms an important part of religious movements, and also has the potential to re-invent the spiritual practices of [...]

It seems to become a regular thing. Azealia Banks freestyles over a beat that ain’t hers, gets called back and then throws a tantrum. Earlier, Dutch producer Munchi found out about her view on copyright , but even more her inability to discuss it calmly. New victim? Youtube-made superstar Baauer . Yesterday Azealia Banks released a freestyle on a track of Baauer, which blew up thanks to the brilliant Youtube-meme The Harlem Shake , named after and featuring [...]

The sandwich is possibly the greatest food-based invention. We need to be able to eat and post on Facebook at the same time. Sandwiches allow us to do this. The best thing about sandwiches, however, is that anybody can eat them. Vegetarian? Put some more salad in. Belly doesn’t like wheat? Use some gluten-free bread then! And everybody has a favourite sandwich. Even bands… *shels brought their slow-burning alt metal back to the UK last year for some rare live shows. Their taste in [...]
