Rap Radar

In the wake of the Frank Ocean road rage incident, Chris Brown extended an olive branch to him and the rest of Odd Future. Tyler seems to be down. Time to numb this pain.

It appears that Breezy and OFWGKTA’s online feud has spilled into deez streets cuz. Allegedly, Odd Future’s Frank Ocean was harassed coming out of his studio by the R&B singer, his cousins and friends. Can’t we all just get along?

A few hours ago, things got poppin’ on Twitter between Chris Brown and Odd Future’s Frank Ocean and Tyler, The Creator. What started out as a compliment from Chris and a misunderstanding from Ocean, made a turn for the worst. Yikes!

Christopher lost his cool, Tyler retaliated and the back and forth carried on until referee Chuck Taylor played peacemaker. Grab a bucket of popcorn and see what you missed below.

After a few fugazi flicks, Mr. Ocean finally numbs away the pain and releases an official video off his critically acclaimed project Nostalgia, Ultra. Commercial release in stores July 26. Directed by Nabil.

Still in the UK, SoulCultureTV caught up with Meth, who briefly says he doesn’t cosign the numerous comparisons between the Clan and OFWGKTA, but praises Tyler and the collective’s movement.

Personally, funerals and snakes don’t sit well with me and unfortunately, Odd Future’s Hodgy Beats and Left Brain’s group MellowHype  have it all in this horror flick. Conducted by Matt Alonzo.

The rest of Odd Future is hard at work and last night, Domo Genesis turned to his twitter and released a freebie over Snoop’s Dr. Dre-produced track off The Blue Carpet Treatment. We hope Uncle Snoop hears it too.

Mr. Ocean turns it up a notch with this snippet that he shared from his Tumblr. This will not appear on the upcoming retail release of Nostalgia, Ultra. Sounds good already, so hopefully we’ll get it in full.

Although it’s June 3rd, Odd Future member and one half of Mellowhype plants his rap over a soulful beat by Uzzi in honor of the 117th day of the year. Possibly off an upcoming project.

Em and OFWGKTA have been compared numerous times based on their musical content and during Em’s sitdown with MTV‘s Sway at the “Fast Lane” video shoot, Em cosigns their movement. #swag

“I think that from the stuff that I’ve heard — I haven’t heard a lot from them, I still have to go check out everything that they’re doing — but I’ve heard enough to know that it feels like they’re pushing boundaries and buttons, and that’s definitely one of the things that I’m familiar with, especially when I first came out. I love it. I love the fact that they’re doing that. And the dudes can rhyme.”
