Looks like nobody’s letting off Ace Hood’s track anytime soon. With that said, here’s Red Cafe’s take on it, courtesy of Flex. Bombs away.

So the saga continues. After Michael Rapaport spoke on the rift last week, Tip retreated to his Twitter account again and respond to the director’s claims regarding the ATCQ documentary. “Speaking of 1nce again… here i some tribe chat. the director of the film cannot speak to what is in my head abt the documentary. nor can this director EVER say the i dont speak for the group. when i say i do then belive me i do. tribe is no different than […]

Before AFC championship game goes down this Sunday between the NY Jets and Pittsburgh Steelers, the New York Daily News reached out to Consequence about his tribute track, “J.E.T.S.

Following the court hearing, he told local Fox affiliate: “I’m a entertainer, I’m in entertainment. I understand it, I know it’s like it’s a protocol of going through it, going through the courts and getting to this point where it gets dismissed… and we’re back to where we were at in the beginning.”

We’re 21 days into 2011, but here’s a new freestyle from 50 Cent to commemorate the New Year. Sounds like Fif’s got his swagger back—the shit talkin’ at the end doesn’t hurt either.

Nearly a month later, Joe Beezy continues his flow over Ms. Adu’s classic ballad. Love is complicated and like his previous installment, this is too.
