    You know Wale is super bummed.

  17. MadShot says:

    Hey RapRadar, can we get some Taylor Swift news as well?

  18. Nahhh says:

    Hey idiots, this is why its on RapRadar: Most of the people that read this blog grew up with the WWF on TV, and maybe YOU didn’t watch it, but a lot of people did. Warrior was a fan favorite and whether you realize it or not, he was entertaining for many of us as kids and many kids looked forward to watching him. So show a little respect and try to not hate on one truly meaningful post.
