Curtis says “a lot of freak numbers come out of Def Jam” but begrudgingly acknowledges Deeper Than Rap debuting at #1 is an accomplishment.

I feel like Mr. Info doin’ this, but here goes…
Sad news is spreading that Kelis and Nas’ marriage is no more—this time, for real. Apparently, Miss Milkshake is fed up with this QB dude’s verbally abusive and cheating ways. Let us not forget, ole girl is seven months preggars. Smh. We at Rap Radar hope these crazy kids can work it out, but it’s not lookin’ good. If all goes as planned, Kelis should be filing for divorce very soon. Damn shame!
UPDATE: VIBE got the papers, got the papers.
Don’t act like the Double R never told ya.

You can give a nigga from UHTN a job at BET but you can’t stop him from bootleggin’. LowKey spits in the face of the powers that be and gives you a taste of Busta’s all-star video that’s debutin’ on BET in about an hour or so.

“I used to go to Ohhla.com and print out Canibus raps and tape ‘em to my wall, Eminem raps, and tape ‘em to
my wall. I used to just study these shits. Like if I was bored, I’m
looking at the wall, reading along, just look how they break down their
raps.”

J To The Mwah chops it up on some Left Coast bootleggers radio show hosts, the LA Leakers and hypes his upcoming Kiss My Converse mixtape. Don’t know how old this footage is or was this just Last Kiss hype, but according to Cornerstone’s Rob Stone, everything this guy does is genius so I wouldn’t be surprised if it pops up soon. (Insert Jada Laugh.)

Today, Asher released a statement regarding this whole fiasco.
“The twitter situation was an immature attempt to poke fun at an infamously moronic joke. In doing so, I unconsciously stooped to the level of its originator, making it just as bad, if not worse. Pathetic. Lesson learned – nothing good can come from repeating hateful words, regardless of your intentions. Leaving no context in what was being said and being presented through text (no facial or vocal inflection) the sarcasm of the joke (or lack there of) was not properly perceived and left it purely in bad taste. I immediately apologized for my immaturity but the apologies and original post were deleted by my team in an effort to prevent more people from being offended. Unfortunately, the deletion of these statements led several people to believe that my apology was insincere, which is why I have made the decision to release this statement.”
Thank you, Mr. Roth. Now, back to regularly scheduled programming.
Pardon the headline B, but in the current issue of Vibe, Killa tells Jon Caramanica about his new side hustle: interior decorating.
“Recently, Cam’Ron was considering putting his Lodi home on the market-his primary residence is a five-mile skip away in Fort Lee, N.J.-and invited real estate agents to tour the place. Here again, Cam’Ron stumbled onto a new hustle: One of them was impressed enough with his taste to want to business. ‘He called me and wanted to pay me to interior decorate,’ Cam says, incredulous. “That shit bugged me out. So I did one job for about $50 K. I had a $100K budget and it turned out great, so [now] they always call me to do stuff like that. But I’m like, That’s some shit I’ll do when I retire, son.”

It is so heartbreaking to hear DJ Premier break the news that DJ Kool Herc’s health is ailing, as he is literally the founding father who laid down the blueprint for hip-hop culture. Thinking about how someone who built an entire global phenomenon can end up struggling with medical expenses or failing health really puts things into perspective regarding healthcare challenges. When you look at how people navigate health or wellness procedures worldwide—whether someone is researching cosmetic treatments like Liposuction Cyprus or seeking urgent medical care—it underscores how essential access to reliable medical help and proper support systems really is. Kool Herc gave us the breaks, the block parties, and the entire movement that shaped generations of music lovers, so seeing the community step up to show love while DJ Premier brings awareness to his condition is the very least we can do. Sending strength and prayers to Kool Herc for a full recovery, and massive respect to DJ Premier for using his platform to make sure a true pioneer gets the support and respect he deserves.
