2 Chainz was recently in Vancouver and caught up with Nardwuar. Of course, The Human Serviette came bearing gifts and discussed real estate, food, and jewlery. Gotta love the freeze at the end. Based On A T.R.U. Story out today.
Nas may be after the actress who played Faith Evans, but Rick Ross has her in his new video in support of God Forgives, I Don’t. The clip is a lil’ Not Safe For Work due to a topless scene, but watching a nip-slip hasn’t gotten anyone fired, right? GFID in stores now.
Kelly Clarkson went from “Texas to thug” last Friday at the DTE Energy Music Theatre in Detroit. And during her set, she paid homage to the hometown hero Eminem, with a cover of “Lose Yourself”. Apparently, she lost her breath along the way.

A few days ago, Complex compiled a list of the 30 best rappers over 30. Out of the Slaughterhouse outfit, only Joe Budden and Royce da 5’9″ made the cut. So disrespectful. The group took it on the chin (sorta) and reacted to the list with Its The Real. Funny skit. Complex‘s selections? Even funnier.

This is a great reminder of how powerful and lasting Lauryn Hill’s influence has been in music. The fact that The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill eventually reached diamond status after so many years shows that truly meaningful music can continue finding new listeners long after its original release. I also like how the article highlights the combination of hip hop, R&B, neo soul, and reggae that made the album so distinctive. Achieving more than 10 million sales is an incredible milestone, especially considering how much the music industry has changed since 1998. The album’s success feels less like a temporary trend and more like proof that strong songwriting and authentic artistic expression can remain relevant across generations. It is interesting to see how numbers can tell part of a story, whether we are looking at album sales or using a proportion calculator to understand relationships between different figures.
