NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR OPINION ANYWAY. WE ONLY WANT mac’s.
WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
100% with you Rosenberg!!!!!!!!!!
what Rosenberg said at summer jam was the complete truth. it wasn’t the right time to say it when he did, but it was the truth. point blank. but i agree most of what nicki was saying in the flex interview. and she was right, flex was just talking in circles to try and prove how wayne was wrong for pulling his team out of the show. when it comes down to it, it’s about respect. they, as a team, who’s first lady is also the headliner, felt disrespected.
p.s. but at the end of the day, flex is still a bitch and nicki’s music still sucks
*kanye shrug*
Rosenberg was on point with his argument but still….she was doing a concert for HOT 97!!!!!
Interesting that the BOSS E-Bro kept driving home the point that THERE IS NO HEADLINER FOR SUMMER JAM. You just close the show. Niggas out here need to get hit with the 21st Century GAS FACE.
keep in mind she’s an artist….and she’s sensitive about her sh*%.
but for real tho, I remember I went to a summer jam years ago, and destiny’s child was BOOED unmercifully, they went right on performing with the biggest smile, and put an extra umph into it. after that, as much as i wasn’t digging them, I respected them, because they kept going. man, they don’t make artists like they used to.
PETER ROSENBERG FOR PRESIDENT FOR SHUTTING THAT GARBAGE KNOWN AS NICKI MINAJ DOWN
“WHERE IS ALL MY REAL HIP-HOP FANS, NOT THAT STARSHIPS…”
“FUK YOUNG MONEY & ANYBODY THAT LUV EM!”
[…] Respect: RR […]
Preach Rosenburg!
Rosenberg is my dude ! Nicki boyfriend is a PUNK ! You fake ass Tony Yayo looking dude.
Lol he keeps saying it was just an opinion. Yes but infront of a live crowd and streaming to fans all over the world? Yes we get that it was an opinion, but the objective was to embarrass her.
And I’m not going against what he’s saying, starships is not hip hop, but you didnt have to put her on the spot because of that. You can’t expect to like every fucking performance at summer jam, if you don’t like it than keep quiet because believe it or not alot of people was waiting for nicki to hop on stage
but i stand behind rosenberg 200%!! i understand why they pulled out, but i thought it was a bitch move. they coulda went on stage and just went in on the entire hot97 staff!!
Co-sign @Carlito
Honestly what has hip hop became? Calling someone out because you don’t like a song and than expecting them to hop on stage?
I don’t even fuck with her music but I would no way in he’ll say that I front of everyone. Summer jam unites the whole society with all kinds of fanbases and he didn’t respect that
And flex is just stupid for thinking ym should stay. There are a team, it would be disrespecting nicki if they still went and performed for them
And nicki boyfreind just looking for attention
ROSENBITCH IS A PURE PUSSY. HOT 97 NEEDS TO HIRE A REAL NIGGA LIKE ME OR mac.
WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
rosenberg and flex gotta be the biggest pussys in radio right now smfh. young money is an abomination. where the fuck is HIP HOP in the mainstream?
THE BALD ISRAELI IS RUNNIN’ THIS RAP SHIT!!!!
…….HA!!!! THESE CATS IS LAUGHIN’ ABOUT THE WHOLE THING!!!! THAT’S HOW SERIOUS THEY TAKE YMCMB!!!! YEAH, HE SHOULDN’T HAVE SAID IT AT THAT POINT, BUT IT’S NOT LIKE EVERYBODY FROM HOT 97 SAID THAT SHIT!!!! ONLY HE DID!!!! JUST DO THE FUCKIN’ SHOW FOR YA WEIRDO FANS AND DISS THE SHIT OUTTA HIM ON STAGE AND KEEP IT MOVIN’!!!! IT’S FUCKIN’ HIP-HOP!!!! BUT THIS HAS MORE TO DO WIT THEM HAVIN’ BEEF IN THE PAST!!!! IT’S WAY MORE THAN WUT ROSENBERG SAID!!!!
SIDEBAR: TWITTER BEEFIN’ ON TWITTER WHILE EATIN’ THUG COOKIES SHOULD BE BANNED!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
People forget that Summer Jam is where shit goes down at! You got a “beef” with someone, air em out on that stage! Jay did it to Prodigy and 50…50 did it Game and vice versa, Nas was about to do it to Jay, but that got canned. If you’re an artist from NY and you’re in your hometown during Summer Jam, you mean to tell me you’re not going to hit that stage and put it down for your fans?! Fuck outta here!
What Rosenberg said was 1000% true…was it the wrong venue to say so, maybe. Either way, you can’t let what someone SAYS stop you from performing. What if people booed…you gonna cut the show short bc of that? Again, I say: fuck outta here! That broad thinks she’s bigger than what/who she is and got exposed as a result of that ego of hers..and that Young Mushmouth Camp Making Bullshit.
He was wrong but, I agree with what he said. That wasn’t the right time for him to do that when she was the headliner.It was bad business, but as a hip hop I get it.

Out of all the hip pop and r&b acts invited to summer jam, nicki was not the worst one, yet this Jew calls her out and not anyone else. Hot 97 plays garbage hip hop just like every other radio station and wonder why artist start making garbage hip hop…weird. not only that but they wanted nicki who they feel is a pop artist to close a hip hop concert after pointing out to the hip hop crowd she’s pop. Next year they should just let Justin bieber close the show, I heard he even raps.
Nicki wants to be treated like a man in showbiz but when she does, she walks away. Not a good way to earn respect. Men get shitted on daily, we man up and deal with it, men don’t run away, but bitches do.
I ain’t mad at nicki if Wayne asked her not to perform, I can respect that. However Wayne has been making mistakes lately; responding to push t with a weak diss track, telling nicki not to perform, wearing Jeremy Scott leopard yoga paints, etc. Wayne is not the brightest star in the sky, check his bread and bed interview for proof.
Funkmaster Flex is a certified bitch, lousy dj, full of shit, and not worth the time listening to let alone arguing with. I feel sorry for flexs mother and family.
Rosenberg gonna act like nicki ain’t for the sisters, news flash, young money, especially nicki, makes albums for women and kids, you ain’t suppose to like them you grown ass nigga. Hot 97 as a whole is a main reason why hip hop is in the current stasis, they have no room to call out any artist who makes radio songs when that’s all they play. This is not the hot97 from the 90s, its closer to mtv, complete with the corny reality shows staring divas, we see you.
The fact is that nicki walked out on 60,000 fans. To me that is career suicide. Your 15 minutes of fame are over. Take your money from your 3.5 mill in sales and find a nice place to fade away.
#ROSENBERGFORPRESIDENT
This is what it’s come to?
Dude is fronting.. you aint going to diss me and expect me to make your company money. pride is in his way.. but he knows he done fucked up. if it was lil kim.. yeah she could have said fuck it, but a dj trying to act like an artist when at work. fuck no
rosenberg is a clown. Man this is where we at now? some clown wigger is the one to “uphold” real hip hop. This guy is a personification of a smack in the face the corporations are laying down on real hip hop heads. Like some WWF wrestler playing the role of a real hiphop head, knowing that 1) his radio station don’t play the real, 2) the people he cosigns as real artists arent real…..man he even has a “realness segment” over a group home instrumental but would never play a group home record. Funny thing is that Nicki comes from hardscrabble South jamaica and i bet you she had a tougher time getting to the top than punk ass Rosenberg, but he feels entitled enough to put on his “real” hat and tear her down. And judging from the comments people on the comment section, words are enough to give someone props even if everything about them is fake. not a fan of nicki’s music but hot 97 as an entity did more to kill hiphop than a single artist ever could. call up there and request some real hiphop and see what happens. Soon enough rosenberg will start representing the real niggas from the projects…disgusting
@ big homie. youre nobody. dont forget that.
Fuck You Rosenberg you stupid jewish asshole . I cant stand that fat faggot cipher . Cipher be licking on rosenbergs balls . Rosenberg shut the fuck up .
True statement but bad timing. Ymcmb could just went on but respect goes a lot further than a paycheck.
Rosenberg was trying to get her booed off stage. He knows what he was doing. I’m not buying this “It was an opinion” blah blah blah
someone disrespects me…..GUESS WHAT? I’m not providing them a service
It’s about respect
Rosenberg reps Hot97 and should have been more considerate
Lmao @ Nicki’s personal bag carrier talking about punching somebody in the face. Pffff, FOH.
LOL…Elliot, everybody knows your opinion. Rosenberg was wrong. Nicki is Jesus just like anybody else’s nutsack you chew on. Elliot, you’re right up there along with Wayne and Nicki and keeping black music a facetious artform. If Wayne or Nicki isn’t in your Blackout or You Played Yourself tomorrow at 10am, then you should hand this site over to someone else. One of your young cats and you should stay off it. You didn’t have yourself in the Blackout or YPY sections when you publicly blew Rick Ross’ cock at a Press Conference when he announced shit he could announce in a tweet. Rosenberg stood up, which is SO rare nowandays for people that have a platform, like Elliot. As Ebro said, the ticket didn’t say Nicki Minaj. Wayne pulled her out the show, but TYGA performs right after his tweet. Old ass Busta Rhymes, who is an absolute CLOWN at the moment stands behind Nicki and so does Khaled? And this is the people you so called leaders of Hip Hop co-sign. This is the type of shit you guys are cool with? Rap Radar doesnt put Busta Rhymes in YPY for thinking we forgot he’s been rapping for 84 years, thinking we forgot FLIPMODE, thinking we accept this Conglomerate bullshit, and then signing to a label full of kids’ acts? NIggas like Rap Radar and whomever need to be backing the same shit Rosenberg did which would hopefully start pushing artists in a different direction. They can make anything they want because they know closet homos like ‘Big Homie’ will push it, tweet it and act like he had something to do with making it. Niggas are SO comfortable with mediocrity that they walk away from 60 thousand people because someone didn’t like someone attacking their mediocrity. All y’all ‘rap media’ niggas are to blame for this shit. Shame on you. I’m ranting like a motherfucker right now but, hopefully niggas feel me.

Rosenberg is right. Starships is a terrible song. I like Nicki, but it’s silly to back out of a show because an opinionated DJ like Rosenberg dissed one specific terrible song.
That’d be like if Jay Z pulled out of a show because the DJ said his song “I Know What Girls Like” was wack. Know what I mean?
@max ‘hot 97 as an entity did more to kill hiphop than a single artist ever could’ -you hit the nail on the head. i wish someone would publicly bring up that argument
Funny thing is, Starships was never considered Hip-Hop. Is Pop the only thing she do?
Someone deaf? ignorant? Something.
Nick fans please get the heck of this site.
Like he said, hip hop listeners and the world is just “barbs” , Heck out of here with that.
Here, let me attempt to make y’all leave this site like Young MOney did for calling NIcki out.
Stop supporting that GARBAGE COW POO.
Offened? Good, now leave.

Rosenberg is a hypocrite. He works 4 the station that plays nothing but garbage and he’s talking real hip hop?. EPIC FAIL!!! HOT97 has killed off real hip hop in NYC. Just look at their playlists.
u knw wat? i tink der re bunch of illiterates commenting on dis issue. first of all, nicki does pop/hiphop music, we ve got pop fans dat are diggin the starship track( doesnt mean i am feelin it), but u dont come out dissin an artist you invited to ur show right before she was abt to perform infront of her fans. for me i tink it was a bitch ass move, he culd ve sat in da studio and mentioned it on radio for the whole world to hear if he wanted to share his opinion and not wen she and her team wer abt to perform, dats just proper piss take. didnt see anyfin wrong wiv ym pulling out cos as a team dey wer all disrespected even tho d shot was taken at nicki. yea we all knw d “starships” track aint proper hiphop but his approach to the whole tin was shit. common sense aint common so anybody supporting rosenberg i guess dat line is for ya. word!!!
So what? Peter Rosenberg is not Hot 97. He’s one dude that works there, it’s not like he even runs the place. Your comparison is way off base.
it’s on base because it would make more sense to sound off on hot97 than to attack an artist who only makes music like that so she can get spins. don’t talk shit to the finger if you work for the body. if he was REALLY interested in promoting and preserving hiphop, he would try to persuade program directors and operations managers to spin music he listens to. they know she’s a big draw and that’s why they invited her. to fill up their venue with her fans. it doesn’t make sense on a business or personal level: i’m not gonna invite you to my crib for dinner, talk shit about your clothes and expect you to stay. i wouldn’t offer you money to render a service and tolerate my staff shitting on the whole reason we went into business and expect you to be ok with it. and it’s not like they still paid her! the success of songs like starships is the ONLY reason they saw her as a bankable closer. i repeat; this doesn’t happen in any other genre but hiphop. we’re destroying ourselves. applauding an employees distasteful move is a step in the wrong direction
after minaj destroyed flex on his own show, while flex was asking her if she still loved him, rosenberg said it aint over until he and nicki talk…on his show im sure. its all about ratings… a discussion between he and nicki will obviously bring some listeners in and steer their show out of the gutter in the rankings. during his rant, rosenberg says he doesnt represent bullshit but does represent that asap rocky..how far is nicki minaj from asap rocky style wise…sorry to wake you neophytes but not much…this is not comparing a rakim record with a vanilla ice record 20 years ago…asap and nicki’s features on their respective albums may very well end up being identical.. Its crazy how all these magazines, sites and radio stations are battling like they are not a revolving door of the same employees from the last 20 years. Acting like one represents real hip hop more than the next is one big joke.
Exactly Rosenberg should blast the station that pays his bills, HOT97. The station that plays all the garbage he doesn’t like all day long. HOT97 killed off real hip hop in NY and he still works there and plays BS too.
Rosenberg and cypha need ratings. They are getting swamped by the breakfast club at 105
them lil goofy ass birdbrain chicks who like Starships BUY music. they’re keeping hiphop alive while y’all just type and download shit for free. what did your favorite artist sell? why wasn’t their show full of all these people who supposedly want ‘real hip hop’ back at the forefront? what have you done to PROVE you want ‘real’ hip hop?… just as bad as people who criticize politicians but don’t vote. slacktivists. keyboard revolutionaries. people ain’t shit
What dirt does ebro have c(ass)h money?
Retarded yo, Rosenberg always doing this shit for media exposure, and when people come back at him like this he talks about how hip hop use to be and shit. Jew ass, get the fuck outta here.
“The opposite of real hip hop”
Yo Wtf?
What’s “Real Hip hop” ???? Nicki minaj is a Pop/Hip Hop star. Why Hip hop got so many boundaries? Fuck that shit.
nicki wasn’t even gonna perform starships dumbasses

Nothing hypocritical about Rosenberg- yea he works for a station that plays the same shit all day, but he has his own slot where he plays hip-hop… Its like 2 in the morning, but its his

The fact that a radio dj who makes 60,000 a year made a bunch of millionaires bleed out there pussies and not perform is a bitch move on young money and it kind of proves that he was right, if that was anyone else they would have went on stage and proved him wrong
Scaff and Nicki played themselves horribly………..
Rosenberg & FunkFatterFlex needs to go fuck themselves . Mr I get excited like a bitch when I find out a rapper is a Jew Rosenberg . I literally wish some one would deck him one . ROSENBERG did this for RATINGS . The Breakfast club is getting better ratings then them as some one else stated

“How The Fuck Is A Old Bald Headed Jew Gonna Speak For Real Hip Hop” Mac$avage007
Someone should headbutt this white-boy. You invite me at your show and disrespect me in front of the crowd im here for.. ofcourse i will jet off on the next flight. Why is it so hard to comprehend
He sounds a little salty because Nicki & YM didn’t do the show. Hey… Well maybe you should’ve kept your mouth closed. Just because you’re a Jew don’t mean you say whatever you want to and w/o any consequences. The joke is on you dude. HA!!
Rosenberg was wrong. I’m not a fan of Nicki Minaj but he was wrong. I’m fine with him voicing his opinion and the song is corny but save your opinion for your radio show. It’s disrespectful to diss and artist’s work hours before they are scheduled to perform. She was HIRED by the company YOU WORK for to peform. Be respectful.
Fuck Peter Rosenberg and the Jew unit.
Real hip hop ain’t existed in yearsss. There’s people like kendrick Lamar and others that do the real hip hop but they didn’t get booked for summer jam lol.
Hip hop is not what it was in the 90s and early 00’s. U got a ex c.o and a Jewish actor rubbing the rap scene today. I.e rick ross and drake
By the wat nicki Minaj is a gimmick and is obsessed with herself and ymcmb is the weirdest crew in the history of rap.
Rosenberg was spot on.
rosenberg just admitted hes a snitch. i hope he gets cancer
Ok, so I’m gonna shit on that dumb little girl’s whole argument. She is upset about the worldwide live stream? Well I got news for her, I tried like hell to watch the live streaming from the festival stage and it was so jacked.. The stream didn’t even get any better until after SlaughterHouse was done on the main stage..I am sure no one watched more than 10 minutes of it, not even her brainwashed zombies..
#fuckYMCMB
Right or wrong time, it’s just an opinion.. Yo may not like it, but don’t let that dictate if you perform or not. Woman up, get a back bone and toughen up Nicki..
No, he didn’t. He admitted that he’s willing to sue somebody (CIVIL COURT, you fucking dropout) who attacks him out of cold blood. I really should not have to elaborate on the hundreds of obvious differences.
this nigga lied at the beginning of the interview! he said “where them real hip hop heads at? not them starships rappers”.! he didnt juss diss that one song he diss her period! Cracker shuda kept his mouth shut.! & Flex ah Bitch too!!! #YmCmBOE
#nickicallRosenberg
“fuk young money and anybody that like/love’em”
Minaj need 2 finally keep it real and tell everyone why she really didn’t perform, and that’s cuz Brooklyn was in the building more then “200 deep” lmfao they a joke and lil wayne need 2 stop gettin into beef cuz all he want to talk about on a diss song is that he’s a grown ass blood WHO CARES OR WHO’S SCARED?? NOBODY last time I checked he was a blood mascot and he didn’t come cuz Pusha T was in the building big shout out 2 Pusha T only 1 thing 2 say 2 wayne “Dem N***as ain’t dying 4 ya” Ha Ha Ha Ha Haaaaa
what if rosenberg did the same thing before a dmx set? “that new ruff ryda shit is garbage”__ pans camera_ 30 niggas mop the stage w rosenberg
i never comment on rap radar or any other hip hop blog for that matter but i thought i would chime in on this matter….regardless of who i think is right or wrong (whoever i said was right the other side would skewer me for it) at the end of the day all these comments below me and above me…INCLUDING MINE..are adding fuel to the fire and keeping this story relevant. there is no true definition of what hip hop is. hip hop/rap means a lot of different things to a lot of different people. stop the name calling like this is high school and just enjoy the music that you like listening to…simple!
SHE’S A BIRD, ROSENBERG DIDNT DO ANYTHING BUT EXPRESS HIS OPINION. ROSENBERG MAKES SENSE
he sounds scared… “i’m gonna sue..” thats some bitch shit
what was the song at the end of the second clip? it was about to begin. anyone know??
TOTALLY agree with Rosenberg’s perspective – personally.
But I could see how it cause probs business wise. That being said if I was NM’S mgr, I would’ve had her perform (including starships) and talk sh*t about dude the whole time. #fightfirewithfire
Elliot Wilson… you are by far the biggest dick sucking ball gobbling hack journalist in all urban entertainment. Take a bow and suck somebody else off.
You disgust me how you put your lil 2 cents in song descriptions and make it painfully obvious that your breath smells like rapper nuts.
You are a bitch, and no matter how many lil fruit cake art faggot producers and new hippie rappers you are cool with you will NEVER be respected by the real niggas you really want respect from.
Fucking dweeb.
An artist that makes a song like Starships shouldn’t even have been asked to perform at an event like Summer Jam. Problem would have been solved. Nicki ain’t hip-hop anymore. or, maybe hip-hop ain’t hip-hop anymore? It’s way too many soft, b***h made nigga’s in it. Ironically, Drake said it best: “rap changed, there was a time it was rugged.”
