Snoop returned to daytime television today on the soap opera, One Life To Live. I’m too heterosexual to follow the premise, but he plays himself and performs later. He even remixed the theme song. Our sincerest apologies if both vids are a bit choppy.

It’s been a minute since we’ve heard anything new from Missy, well, besides this rough draft. While Misdemeanor takes production credit on Monica’s new album, the songstress tells Rap-Up, Missy is working hard on her next LP. “She’s got some crazy music on there, some stuff I was trying to steal for my record.” However, she still managed to get away with a few goods. “I got a couple of things that she let me take, but she’s working really hard […]

But it’s not no master plan for something else bigger than that.” Thank, God.
We’ve got an image! T.I. made his first post-prison public appearance on Monday at The Atlanta Opera for Tiny’s Alzheimer’s research fundraiser. He was quoted as saying, “I am very well, very happy to be seen.”. Manager Jason Geter told MTV that T.I’s next album should be dropping by the end of the summer with production from DJ Toomp, Danja and The Runners. As far as features, The-Dream and Trey Songz already locked in. Photo: GG | Access Atlanta
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.
