Unfortanetly, it didn’t work that way. Here he talks with MTV on his next project, and where he plans to work with his inspirations. Already onboard are Snoop and Travis Barker. Guess it gets lonely on the moon.
As Weezy prepares to “go in” next year, there’s no doubt he has tons of music to keep him omnipresent. Young Money affiliate Drake spoke to Rap-Up on how he plans to hold it down for the label and how Wayne’s handling the situation. “He’s dealing with it well.

Apparently, Eminem called Joe Budden yesterday and gave him props for rippin’ the cypher at the BET Hip Hop Awards. Don’t let Drake gas you Nicki, you weren’t the fuckin’ best. Sidebar: “Exhibit E” on the way?

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.
