Jay-Z thinks female rap’s been dead since Lauryn Hill. Enter Nicki Minaj. She’ll save the day. Yeah right. Fuck outta here!
YN Confession: I may have listened to her rap once or twice but can’t recall one song.

During a break in shooting from his Complex feature, F-A-B-O gets his brag and boast on:
Complex: Which of the new crop of young New York rappers do you feel like you’re competing with?
Fabolous: None. I’m not…there’s no New York rapper who’s out that is competing with me because first of all, I’m the best and—
Complex: [Laughs.]
Fabolous: [Laughs.]—second of all, I’m not like a new jack, I’m not just coming out, this is not my first album. I’ve been out for years and I’ve had numerous hits, I’ve had numerous endorsements. It’s my fifth album, like, this is not new. I’m not just rapping because I like it anymore—this is like almost my career now, you know? Not almost, it is! This is what I feed myself and my family with, so I attack it that way. You know, certain people, they do what they do, and I’m sure they’re good at what they do but I just don’t put anybody—especially in New York—in my category because they haven’t been through all the things I’ve been through, throughout my career. And I’m still going, I believe. I still haven’t peaked, there’s a lot of guys who’ve came, peaked, and I think now people look at them and are like, “OK,” but I think people still want more of me because they feel like I haven’t peaked. Sometimes I even hear people say, “I don’t think Fab has lived up to his full potential yet,” you know what I’m saying? I believe this album right here is a classic album and I listen to it as a fan; I just rode in my car listening to it and I was very pleased.
I’m not mad. If you don’t think you’re the best at what you’re doin, you shouldn’t be doin’ it.

This album which features plenty of The Lox’s soldiers (J Hood still lost) is also in stores today. I ain’t coppin’, but I do dig this joint. New Jack City (no Bow Wow), FTW!

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.
